Just in case you guys were wondering, 93 of the first 100 players taken in the Second Mock Draft were taken also in the first 100 players of the First Mock Draft.
Greg, you might want to get some new blood!

Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

No problem there Wayne. Let's see how the Top 100 looks next week in Arizona with lots of sun on our skin and beer in our bloodlines!!
I trust the players will look similar until the Hot Stove League picks up and even then it might be tough to bump most of these guys out of the Top 100.
Keep the mocks going. They're good information for everyone.

Sheep???????? [/QUOTE]Not really. Look at the fact that there were 137 different players taken in the top 100 in the Main Event in 2008 across 26 drafts. 107 different across 2 drafts sounds about right. Also 74 players were taken in the Top 100 in all 26 drafts. Basically, the TOP 75 players will almost always be in the TOP 100. The next 25 will fall between 75 and 125. Overlap between any two drafts should be 90%-ish. I think seven different sounds about right.

I think there was a mix up on the PM front. I never sent a PM to Captain about this pick.
I think maybe Head to Head did. If it pleases the court I will take Zach Greinke instead so Head to Head can have his 3B he coveted.
