That's what she said....blah!

Doneski! C – Connor Wong 1B – Tristan Casas 2B – Mookie Betts 3B – Rafeal Devers and Yoan Moncada SS – Trevor Story and Xander Bogaerts OF – Tyler O'Neill, Kyle Schwarber, Jarren Duran, Masataka Yoshida, Wilyer Abreu, Alex Verdugo, Andrew Benintendi and Adam Duvall DH – Rotation of the best available from 2B/3B/SS/OF group. SP – Nathan Eovaldi, James Paxton, Nick Pivetta, Bryan Bello, Kutter Crawford, Martin Perez and Tanner Houck RP – Kenley Jansen, Matt Strahm, John Schreiber and Garrett Whitlock Between, Betts/Bogaerts/Story I have a pretty good rotation for 2B/SS once Bogaerts becomes 2B eligible. Boston's 5th starter is still up in the air with Giolito going down. Two out of the Houck/Whitlock/Winckowski group will be there to start the season. I'm a little light on RP right now but I have several exclusives available (Bernadino, Campbell, Jaques, Murphy, Weissert and Winckowski to name a few). I've got a lot of OF depth, definitely open to trading for a starting C, 1B depth or RP. I was hoping to grab Hendricks or Springs in the later rounds to stash away for the second half but I was off by 1 round on both of them, good picks by cmh and WhiteWonder.

10.10 - Masataka Yoshida, OF, BOS

8.10 - Andrew Benintendi, OF, CWS

9.03 - Martin Perez, SP, PIT

11.03 - Connor Wong, C, BOS 12.10 - Garrett Whitlock, SP/RP, BOS

7.03 - Adam Duvall, OF, FA

6.10 - John Schreiber, RP, KC

As I support the team that this affects in the real life side of baseball, I vote yes, he should get another pick.

5.03 - Tyler O'Neill, OF, BOS

4.10 - Matt Strahm, SP/RP, PHI

Yeah, probably not that bad I guess. Just such a big difference from year to year.

Man, what a difference from 2023's draft to this year. The first player I lost last year wasn't until Benintendi at 3.03. This year, I'm already down 4 players in the first 2 rounds, Rodriguez, Sale, Giolito (my 3 top SP targets) and Kimbrel (my 2nd closer target). I know others probably have it worse but I feel your pain at least to some extent this year.

3.03 - Nathan Eovaldi, SP, TEX

1.03 - Kenley Jansen, RP, BOS And now, sometime later today, Boston will sign Montgomery...

Understandable...lol

Yeah, no kidding. You watch, as soon as I make my pick tomorrow morning, they will sign him. That's my kind of luck.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I heard the meeting actually happened a week or 2 ago so who knows what is going on. I'm not convinced they want to spend any more money this year honestly so I'm not overly hopeful...lol

Me too but I need to hold off on my first pick for a bit. There is a chance the Red Sox might sign someone else that would end up being my first pick. If they don't sign him by 4 March, then I guess I will have to move on.

2.10 - Xander Bogaerts, SS, SD

13.03 - Alex Verdugo, OF, NYY 14.10 - Trevor Story, SS, BOS

15.03 - Kyle Schwarber, OF, PHI 16.10 - James Paxton, SP, LAD

17.03 - Nick Pivetta, SP, BOS 18.10 - Yoan Moncada, 3B, CWS

19.03 - Tanner Houck, SP, BOS 20.10 - Jarren Duran, OF, BOS

21.03 - Rafeal Devers, 3B, BOS 22.10 - Kutter Crawford, SP, BOS
