Yes, Andruw Jones.

Do I owe comp for him?

[Providence A's]

frickin' sweet...I got both of my guys...not exactly major moves, but they will help the team nonetheless and I didn't break the bank.

[Hammer]

detroit owes a first round pick to boston (ortiz)
milwaukee owes a first round pick to texas. (wilkerson)

st louis owes a second round pick to philadelphia. (rowand)
san diego owes a second round pick to arizona. (jones) (could possibly be a 3rd round pick, depending on if the padres pick 15th or 16th)
milwaukee owes a second round pick to arizona. (floyd)
yankees owe a second round pick to minnesota. (nathan)

[Kingdom]

Damn, didn't expect to get both relievers.
Whoops..
<_<

[browntown653]

Easily overpaid for Floyd and probably for Wilkerson too. But I had money to spare.

[General]

Seriously underestimated the market on some people.

[bjd2933]

I'll gladly trade a 2nd rounder for Joe Nathan.

So I got my catcher, reliever and dinosaur SP.

[OrioleMagic]

I am really curious to see what the Draft Order will look like...

[DiamondDave]

With the draft looking like it did... giving my first rounder for Ortiz was an easy decision

[bjd2933]

You're lucky Ortiz "didn't like my organization"...

[krush]

well, my shot in the dark for schmidt failed, but I got everyone else I wanted, especially Rowand.

I am definitely in the market for a starting pitcher still...looks like it won't be through FA

[Dry1313]

I got Hensley and Young...

Interested in hitters probably

[General]

Krush, I've got Santana.

[Reds_fan_4_life]

well although the draft isnt too deep, a first round pick is a first round pick, so hopefully i can get something worth while. i also picked up Giles so he is in the mix for my infield.
