    Round 2 pick: P Will Kline. Signing Bonus: $434,000
    Round 3 pick: P Nicholas Barnese. Signing Bonus: $310,000
    Round 4 pick: P David Newmann. Signing Bonus: $273,000

    Round 9 pick: 1B Mark Manning. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: CF Alberto Sepulveda. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Price has been awesome. Barnese and Price are off being mediocre somewhere else.

    Round 1 pick: C Kyle Skipworth. Signing Bonus: $3,090,000
    Round 2 pick: P Carlos Hidalgo. Signing Bonus: $329,000
    Round 3 pick: P Gary Kenworthy. Signing Bonus: $330,000
    Round 4 pick: C Juan Ramos. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Round 13 pick: P Aldo Martinez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 14 pick: LF John Betts. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Skipworth has developed into a quality catcher, hitting for power and playing good defense. Hidalgo has been a serviceable MRer, albeit inconsistent. Nothing else to see here, wonder where Kenworthy is.

    Round 1 pick: C Arthur Garza. Signing Bonus: $2,850,000
    Round 2 pick: CF Cosme Almanza. Signing Bonus: $700,000
    Round 3 pick: P Robert Rosenow. Signing Bonus: $290,000

    Round 13 pick: P Joey Figueroa. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 14 pick: P Randall Benavides. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Garza got me McCann and has been a good catcher for LAA. Almanza is a decent OF backup. Fernandez is a backup. Nobody else is noteworthy.

    Round 1 pick: RF Robert Shortt. Signing Bonus: $1,122,000
    Round 2 pick: P Roderikku Kenzan. Signing Bonus: $378,000
    Round 3 pick: RF Michael White. Signing Bonus: $220,000

    Round 11 pick: P Corey Lusher. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P David Halvorsen. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Shortt is a shitty backup, more like AAAA fodder. Nobody else is even around.

    Round 1 pick: CF Kentrail Davis. Signing Bonus: $912,000
    Round 2 pick: CF Mo Tak. Signing Bonus: $602,000
    Round 3 pick: SS Dee Strange-Gordon. Signing Bonus: $205,000
    Round 4 pick: C Marco Carpio. Signing Bonus: $42,000
    Round 5 pick: P Leo Hannah. Signing Bonus: $46,000
    Round 6 pick: P Derek Schulman. Signing Bonus: $32,000
    Round 7 pick: CF Robert Fox. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: P Diego Marquez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: LF Samuel Gonzalez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: RF Santiago Suarez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: RF Pedro Anguiano. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Austin Wolf. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Enthrails! A starter in CF. Tak sucked and I traded him. Strange-Gordon is AAAA.

    Round 1 pick: P Frank Urbano. Signing Bonus: $1,568,000
    Round 2 pick: 1B Jose Cordero. Signing Bonus: $490,000
    Round 3 pick: P Robert Reiber. Signing Bonus: $290,000
    Round 4 pick: C Robert Newbill. Signing Bonus: $49,000

    Round 6 pick: P Pedro Gonzales. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 7 pick: 3B Koitarou Nobuatsu. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: SS Milo Willcox. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: P Tom Penning. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: P David Tiemann. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: P Silvano Moscato. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Arthur Heinz. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Urbano lost control talent, gained stuff talent, then lost stuff talent. Tiemann has developed into an interesting MRer.

    Round 1 pick: P Hans Nevius. Signing Bonus: $1,995,000
    Round 2 pick: CF Manuel Paredes. Signing Bonus: $462,000
    Round 3 pick: P Benji Fontaņez. Signing Bonus: $90,000
    Round 4 pick: C Alonso Urbina. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 5 pick: P Walter Ballesteros. Signing Bonus: $46,000
    Round 6 pick: CF Santo Cubillo. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 7 pick: P Rafael Alvarado. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: 3B Avelino Balan. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: RF Leslie Lenihan. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: 3B Berny Vasquez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: P James Urena. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Ivan Clancy. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Nevius has developed into an ace closer (Ratings wise. He sucked in the playoffs). Nothing else is worth mentioning.

    Round 1 pick: P Jacob Turner. Signing Bonus: $3,060,000
    Round 2 pick: P Anthony Gose. Signing Bonus: $136,500
    Round 3 pick: 1B Theo Eppstein. Signing Bonus: $500,000
    Round 4 pick: 1B Kelly Stanton. Signing Bonus: $68,250
    Round 5 pick: P Ramon Escalona. Signing Bonus: $39,000
    Round 6 pick: 1B Mark Martino. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 7 pick: 3B Garth Engleman. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: 1B Benjamin Zubiri. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: P James Jones. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: 2B Nicolas Jamison. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: 3B Brian Acuna. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Edward Terrell. Signing Bonus: $25,000


    Probably my best draft. Gose is now an OFer who mashed in the playoffs but has the worst eye out of any starter I have ever fielded. Eppstein is a work in progress (not much progress, actually) but sadly has no gap power. Escalona has beasted and is now my #6 SP/my best prospect.

    Round 1 pick: C Benjamin Brann. Signing Bonus: $1,960,000
    Round 2 pick: C Marlon Mitchell. Signing Bonus: $735,000
    Round 3 pick: P Shawn Hill. Signing Bonus: $175,000
    Round 4 pick: P Francisco Guerro. Signing Bonus: $231,000
    Round 5 pick: P Anthony Dyck. Signing Bonus: $70,000
    Round 6 pick: CF Duane Auclair. Signing Bonus: $32,000
    Round 7 pick: P Aaron Maul. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: 1B Robert Johnson. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: LF Bill Meaney. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: LF Santiago Solorio. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: P Zane Rangel. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Spencer Fresno. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Brann helped me get HanRam while Marlon Mitchell will be my backup C/1B/3B/OF this year. Drafted him to be a versatile backup and he has done nothing to change that (meaning, he didn't develop into anything above a mediocre backup).

    Round 1 pick: P Efren Heredia. Signing Bonus: $368,600
    Round 2 pick: 1B Dustin Haldeman. Signing Bonus: $287,000
    Round 3 pick: P Patrick Thompson. Signing Bonus: $330,000
    Round 4 pick: C Leonard Barrientes. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 5 pick: 1B Lucas Rodriguez. Signing Bonus: $58,000
    Round 6 pick: 2B Ronald Boughner. Signing Bonus: $32,000
    Round 7 pick: 2B Joshua Cyrus. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: P Tony Rodriguez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: 1B Bartolo Bemudez. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: 2B John Chavis. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: RF Adrian Carmen. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Billy Horace. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Probably my worst draft, as Efren died and everyone else is gay.

    Round 1 pick: P Marcelo Viga. Signing Bonus: $525,000
    Round 2 pick: P Salvador Alvardo. Signing Bonus: $308,000
    Round 3 pick: RF Manny Borges. Signing Bonus: $235,000
    Round 4 pick: RF Josias Duran. Signing Bonus: $80,500
    Round 5 pick: P Edward Dittrich. Signing Bonus: $34,000
    Round 6 pick: CF Robert Marley. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 7 pick: LF Tim Pinzon. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 8 pick: 3B Sabas Cortes. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 9 pick: 2B Carlos Tejada. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: 1B Chad Krause. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 11 pick: P Alfred Cheek. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Jaime Rosales. Signing Bonus: $25,000

    Marcelo has not done anything yet (no development at all), but remains a quality MR prospect. Everyone else is blargh, especially Alvardo, whose stuff is a FOUR.

    Re: Draft Histories?

    Year 2007 Recap :
    Round 1: Phillipe Aumont
    Round 2: Matt Mangini
    Round 3: Denny Almonte
    Round 6: Roque Martines

    Aumont lost talent and tried to become a late bloomer. Mangini never made the ML Roster but had decent ratings. Almonte bloomed late with a couple of boosts and has contributed to the roster. Roque Martines got to 10-8-8 before being dealt and fell to 10-6-6.

    Year 2008 Recap :
    Round 1: Issac Galloway
    Round 2: Ricky Oropesa

    Galloway......sigh. Became even better than when I drafted him after being traded. Oropesa has been a good bench player for the Dodgers

    Year 2009 Recap:
    Round 1: Jay Crew
    Round 6: Juan Brown

    Crew lost talent in the 1st sim after being drafted and still became dominant after being dealt for Rich Hill, who was a Cy Young in year #1, promply decided to suck. Juan Brown became a decent MR for the Rockies.

    Year 2010 Recap:
    Round 1: Arturo Penavler
    Round 6: Richard Blosser

    Penavler is no longer in the league. Blosser is still in AAA and could be a decent option.

    Year 2011 Recap:
    Round 1: Brett Lawrie
    Round 2: Lee Porter
    Round 3: Perf Ed
    Round 4: Mario Villatoro
    Round 5: Oriole Magicc

    Lawrie is a solid contributor to Philly but took a talent hit in the process. Porter is the worst 9-8-8 pitcher ever. Perf is a solid bench bat for Minnesota but doesn't have a position to play. Villatoro was a promising catcher before losing 4 contact points in one sim. Oriole Magic is currently in Free Agent land. OM pick your guy up lol.

    Year 2012 Recap:
    Round 1: Glen Shupe
    Round 2: James Robson

    Robson decided to boost to a 9-10-8 MR. Would be my luck. Glen Shupe on the other hand could be a good bat off the bench but his defense is awful.

    Year 2013 Recap:
    Round 1: Kenneth Olsen

    Olsen became a damn good MR for San Diego. Headley was good in the deal but decided not to keep him.

    Year 2014 Recap:
    Round 1: Kyle Lobstein
    Round 2: Javier Alvarez
    Round 12: Abraham Holleran

    Lobstein is one of the best starters in the AL right now. Alvarez will be a solid CF when he fills out for Cincy. Hollerman boosted his way to possibly being on the roster next season. Not bad for a 12th round pick.

    Year 2015 Recap:
    Round 1: Ruben Sierra Jr
    Round 2: Renzo Reverol
    Round 3: Celestino Corrales

    Ruben Sierra could become the 2nd fiddle to Triunfel if he fills out. Reverol is getting his feet wet with Colorado. Corrales could be a decent option if he gets some work.

    Year 2016 Recap:
    Round 1: Carlos Gouevia
    Round 2: Gonzalo Rodriguez
    Round 10: Carlton Mooreman

    Gouevia should be solid if he stays at his ratings. Rodriguez is intriguing with a boost or two. Same with Mooreman who could become a decent reliever.

    Year 2017 Recap:
    Round 1: Tanehiko Namboku
    Round 2: Richard Coddington
    Round 3: John Harrold
    Round 4: Sakutaro Tarozaemon
    Round 7: Valerio Tavares
    Round 8: Christopher Haffner

    Namboku could be Alvarez light. Coddington will be a good if he stays to his ratings. Harrold, Tarozaemon, Tavares and Haffner could be ML contributors if they get a boost.

    Re: Draft Histories?

    im just gonna go to 09 since 07 and 08 were half real drafts and shit.

    09: gerritt cole has been tremendous. still only 27, two time all star and every season after those two have been better than the two all star appearances. took him 11th overall. kyle long flamed out, took some declines as a reliever so i dealt him to la in a meaningless deal this season to give nick a chance to develop him as a hitter. everybody else sucks.

    10: maurice curd is fairly developed, but hes 29 and never got a shot at the majors, strong rotation all the years. never made his debut. ozzie munos in the 2nd round, declined immediately, then boosted twice since. got a shot last year and was great, and was respectable this year as the closer, glitch game aside. abarca in the 3rd has decent talent, but nothing special, made it to the majors for a little while but no long stay. justin knox in the 7th was dealt in the morneau deal, was solid at the time, not sure whats happening with him now.

    however the steal of the draft was in the 6th, with axel molina. the first of my molinas, and obviously the best of them all for now. been on the roster for a while, even got solid pt last year down the stretch, as an every day guy vs lefties. easily a candidate for greatest player in tpsl history.

    11: velasco never made it to talent, dealt in the morneau deal, hes gotta be like 28 now. bill king took a boost early, but declined a bunch of times, sitting in my minors somewhere. the rest of the draft sucked.

    12: alonso was old when i drafted him, but he was still the most talented on the board at like.. .25-26 when i drafted him. solid pinch hitter last year, might eventually take over 1b when morneau goes, who knows. schmidt is near talent in my minors but probably will never be relevant. cabanillas i think i drafted him at 16 or something, hes got solid talent and is getting to it, he'll probably be around for a while, but probably wont be more than a middle reliever without another boost.

    13: cloutier was alright, though very flawed. boosted, twice i believe, then declined, twice i believe. so i dealt him and his 29 gb%. burr redding never really got a shot, he declined early and i soured on him. lucas areytio just took a talent boost during the sim here, but hes nowhere near talent at the time.

    the tpsl site died on me, ill finish it up later maybe

    Re: Draft Histories?

    2008: Dry drafted
    1st rounder: 3B Zach Wilson, he looks like a decent #2 hitter or utility infielder but nothing special. I would have gone in some other direction. I traded him to Chicago.
    10th rounder: MR Daniel Koga, boosted into an average reliever and traded to Atlanta.

    2009: Dry again
    1st rounder: 2B Michael Kaneie, developed late and turned out to be a good pick but he's doing it for Tampa. Tiffany's career has been suck and Jesse Litsch is hot and cold.
    2nd rounder: RF Herman Ramirez, does nothing but hit, however, I don't feel bad about not having him anymore cause he's never used full time.
    10th rounder: 2B Gaston Marquardt, an afterthought in a Jon Lester deal but boosted several times and could be a 30 year old late bloomer.

    2010: Dry's last stand
    1st rounder: C John Smith, I need to dig up the draft thread from this to see how it played out. Here's my initial problem, he's a catcher with really no defense thusly he's an AL guy despite the offensive potential. Bad pick (1st overall) in my opinion so I made him a 1B later on. He lost a lot of contact talent, so he could be a slower Bryce Harper, which would have been so awesome.
    7th rounder: 1B Karim Garcia Jr., traded for legends Curtis Ganger and Kyle Fan

    2011: Kingdom Era
    1st rounder: SP Michael Inoa, now Ynoa, fell to 4th but not really. He had several boosts to make it to 10-10-10 so it wasn't a total blunder on 1-3. In my opinion it wasn't actually at all. Just luck. Ynoa has had a weird career, his k rate has fallen every year but his ERA finally settled in, stopped giving up homeruns, and doesn't walk people. And won 30 games.
    2nd rounder: 2B Michael Rodriguez, I really liked him despite having no defense. Dealt him to KC but he hasn't developed.
    3rd rounder: CF Marcus Brisker, I think he was a hell of a 3rd round pick but I dealt him to Philly and he hasn't developed much.
    4th rounder: MR Shadow Jones, boosted and looked very promising, and then lost control talent and was shipped to the reds. His talent, like the GM, disappeared.
    6th rounder: SP Claudio Mazzola, developed enough to be somewhat attractive and traded him to the cardinals
    10th rounder: MR Leon Ballesteros, boosted late past prospect prime and traded to Florida in a deal for two guys I will never speak of again.

    2012:
    1st rounder: CF Vern Schillinger, I wasn't fond of the pick back then and he finally found his stride despite always getting hurt. Dealt in a deal for Fielder. If we did it over, I either pick someone else or hold on to him a bit longer.
    2nd rounders: MR William Giles and through compensation MR Jeffrey Dick, at the time Giles was the force but he lost his edge and I traded him to get Casey Weathers. Dick had some boosts and is now a running joke in PM's with Nick.
    6th rounder: SP Burton Richardson, he's now 26 but has 9-6-9 potential suddenly, so who knows. He has an awful sports name, but it's worth noting I drafted a guy named Seman and a guy named Hoops this year too.

    2013:
    1st rounder: RF Nelson Marpons, he has potential matching that of another sim legend.. Jose Davila.. but has slowly developed. I finally traded him after someone was finally willing to deal someone good. I love you hammer, keep it real man.
    2nd rounder: SS Shawn Ingham, promising #2 hitter lost discipline and then I dumped him on LAA.
    6th rounder: SP Jerold Merritt, developed enough where Seattle wanted him. Then lost talent.

    2014:
    1st rounder: SS Bryce Harper, this had to be the Strasburgh draft. Yeah, pretty sure, cause it's the only way Browntown passes up a ML ready C/SS/CF. What a draft, I almost had Strasburgh and Inoa? Harper has become a real nice hitter, but power has yet to surface.
    2nd rounder: SS Destin Hood, and speaking of power, this man has tons of it and I should one day start him full time just to see what numbers he could put up
    4th rounder: SP Eduardo Iniguez, boosted and then dealt to Minnesota, and then lost talent.
    12th rounder: MR Terry Braggs, boosted to 8's across and dealt with Cedric Benson for Andy LaRoche. Braggs died, Laroche got hurt, Cedric Benson had a fluke year. Crazy deal for the 12th rounder. O_O

    2015:
    1st rounder: 2B Oscar Aguiar, probably one of the worst drafts we've had, so I settled for the ML ready guy despite him having not much range or power. Meh.
    2nd rounder: 3B Michael Almanzar, if it wasn't that Aguiar was ML ready and Almanzar wasn't older, he was a much better pick than my #3. Almanzar never developed and then abruptly died. I did shed a tear.
    3rd rounder: SP Joel Capana-Ventura, wasn't a great pick even before he lost talent and was well worth giving up (rights to the pick) for Chase Headley.
    4th rounder: C Julian Mejias, was really an afterthought but boosted a couple of times and is pushing Bobby Saber and Jason Castro to be my backup next season. 4 stars now.
    6th rounder: CF Bartolo Estevez, boosted and could be a decent backup OF one day

    2016:
    1st rounder: C Toney Hornsby, nothing really left at this pick and he has no defense. Dumped on Arizona.
    2nd rounder: 2B George Noll, probably better than the 1st rounder but he was dumped on the twins in the Ackley deal. Great nickname.
    3rd rounder: MR Nicanor Herrera, boosted after being dumped on the A's, but still unimpressive.

    2017:
    1st rounder: RF Luis Martinez, Oscar Aguiar's cousin I believe? Does fit in with my style of offense, I liked the pick. Has really good RF defense too.
    2nd rounder: SP Samuel Shorts, I'm only listing him because I am disappointed Nick couldn't come up with something wittier for a nickname.




    Draft produced a couple of relievers, my ace, my 1B, my SS, my 2B, and deals that resulted in my #2 pitcher and some other parts. Not bad.

    Karim Garcia Jr. was a top-10 spect for me at some point. A testament to how pathetic my system has gotten.

    Re: Draft Histories?

    Another note... I could have traded Blake DeWitt for Marquardt at some point if I remember right, but I asked GF for more or he asked for something with DeWitt and it didn't happen.

    I regret not doing that. Marquardt has nice talent, and probably won't even sniff the field for awhile in COL with their stock of middle infielders. DeWitt's gone anyway, and I ended up holding onto him too long and got Ill Young Jung's corpse in return.

    Re: Draft Histories?

    13: doane got sent to tampa in the morneau deal. good spect for me, but declined after the deal and is since nothing more than mediocre. huizenga will probably be my backup catcher next season... brad ausmus type, both fielding and hitting... exactly as its written its meant. the rest sucks.

    14: casey kelly finally developed and had a good season last year. he was old when i drafted him, and was a late bloomer, but he looks to be a keeper as is. valderrama needs a boost or two to be relevant. allen cooper was a nice spect for a while, but never developed. also drafted the immortal benji molina in the 9th... the second in a long line. the rest suck.

    15: javier nunez... continuing trend... was old when i drafted him, but was the best talent on the board. finally developed a bit, albeit his talent is nothing to get excited about anymore. maybe a 4th-5th ofer for the future. dejesus... more continuing trends... was old when i drafted him. but hes come around, and seems to be my second baseman of the forseeable future vs right handers, and is finally starting to develop vs lefties. had a surprisingly decent season in 2017. jerald dorr is a meh spect... but i did land pelayo molina in the 4th, and as we all know, you can never have too many molinas.

    16: james hassen is nice, real young and close to developed... but i wanted nelson marpons, so i gave him to zito who i know is a mark for relievers. paradiso in the 4th might be something if he gets another talent boost. the rest suck.

    17: juries out... wimer and pigg got decent talent and nice development for their age. we'll see where they go.

    2007 -
    Round 1 pick: 1B Matt LaPorta. Signing Bonus: $2,910,000
    Round 2 pick: C Jonathan Lucroy. Signing Bonus: $434,000
    Round 3 pick: 2B Eric Farris. Signing Bonus: $390,000
    Round 4 pick: CF Caleb Gindl. Signing Bonus: $437,500

    Round 9 pick: P Julian Stewart. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 10 pick: P Hiu Masaaki. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    LaPorta's been solid for the Yankees, but I traded him to get Matsui and win a WS.
    Lucroy's a bad backup catcher for Pittsburgh.
    Gindl had an absurd development leap and is a stud for Toronto...he was a 4.0 spect when I dealt him and jumped up like crazy.
    Hall became a good prospect but took ages to develop, is a decent RP for San Diego.

    2008 -
    Round 1 pick: P Brett DeVall. Signing Bonus: $3,060,000

    Round 13 pick: SS Abraham Shibata. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 14 pick: 2B Sixto Figueroa. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    DeVall is a 9-10-8, 10 END, 69 GB, 27 year old starter for the Angels but has been mediocre so far...should be better. Traded him for Atkins and K Rod among others, not a great deal but I won another WS with them.
    Veloz played a bit...everyone else was a bum.

    Round 14 pick: 3B Donald Millington. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Ryan got his first taste of the show this year but can't hit lefties.
    A pretty awful draft.

    Round 11 pick: P Edward Fontaner. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Arlie Erickson. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Schueller should be a pretty solid player, 10-7-5-10-9 ratings and a few solid seasons already.
    Pagano has been good as a platoon guy vs LHP, nothing more.

    2014 - Round 1 pick: P Stephen Strasburgh. Signing Bonus: $2,880,000

    Round 11 pick: 3B Will Manzanares. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Round 12 pick: P Hilton Pardo. Signing Bonus: $25,000
    Strasburgh is ****ing Jesus.
    I traded Ragira for Sweeney who's been OK, Ragira has potential to be damn good though if he can get his Avoid K's up.
    Futrell plays for CWS, he's OK and nothing more.
