Thanks Slash! I love the preseason analysis and post-game wrap info. Thanks for taking the time to work it up and share it.

I did a full skill reveal of everyone and found several players I was excited about, but then I ended up with my 8th preference, so was frustrated. I managed a 19yo 60 TSP 9 POT with my second pick as pure luck at least.

But there was a 19yo 71 TSP 10 POT that ended up with The Goats. I unfortunately the 18yo 53 TSP 10 POT and a 19yo 68 TSP 8 POT both ended up with the 2 bots

Seemed to me it was a weak draft. I had high hopes of getting my first pick which was a 5 star, 5 ball, 19 yo prospect with an incredible box score. Not sure who got him or if he turned out to be as good as he looked. But the rest of the players weren’t nearly as good and my drafted reflected that. I like the draft aspect of the game but I wish it wasn’t so expensive since it’s such a crapshoot.

I didn’t see Slash’s post mentioning the 5-5 player who went to the Goats. He’s a good pick.
