No consensus anywhere, could be 100% wrong with my views below and I would not be shocked if the team I pick to finish 12th wins the whole thing; it is going to be a fun year of baseball. ** **Onto the preview.

Bo Bichette is a solid anchor for any squad and pairing him with Ohtani bombs and the steady Machado gives Bull a well rounded base to build off of on the bats side of things. Honestly in the first and second rounds Jeff and Bull got both BJ’s and paired them with huge dongs…uh maybe I better move on. Jazz Jizzholm brings the bags he stole and Kelenic could be a rising star. Will Voit flourish in SD? Is Winker the real deal? Will Villar start every day? No. Maybe. I think so. **

 +
 +**1) How would you rate your draft (feel free to create your own scale)?**
 +
 +**I rate my draft a 6 out of 10 based on how much I believe I was overcharged by Bull's kid for baseball cards and Marvel related products. **
 +
 +**2) One pick you were stoked about, One you should have changed? **
 +
 +**I like pitchers (except closers). I wanted top notch starters especially with the 11th pick. Totally happy with my pitch-pitch decision. Scherzer/Cole. Love it. Also, Jack Flaherty in the 21st round? I'd take a flyer on that kid any day! And there isn't ONE I would have changed. There's a bunch. I went pitch heavy. I should probably have drafted more guys that can hit, run and catch the ball. **
 +
 +**3) Whose team are you most impressed with? **
 +
 +**I could toss out a Tommy G just to be nice or an obligatory BK… but the truth is the only team I’ve taken a good look at is my own. So, the answer is mine. **
 +
 +**4) Speculate on how Jay Vig has a direct line on some players' health? **
 +
 +**Jay Vig is not the Vig we think we know. He’s a time warrior sent to NYC (NYU specifically) in the fall of 1993 where he goes on to meet and befriend several founding members of Rockem Sockem. These young men over time will introduce him to the remaining members, allowing Jay to befriend them as well. His mission? Through his compassion, loyalty and love course correct history and set these young men back on the straight and narrow. Jay is failing because these guys are mostly dicks. In a sad twist, Jay is forced to continue to hang out with them but is forbidden to use his knowledge of future baseball events for his own gain thus preventing him from succeeding within the league. But, yeah, he knows about the health of the players. **
 +
 +**5) Where should next year's draft, the 20th with all of us, be? **
 +
 +**I definitely think it should be a destination/weekend away type thing. I'm down for whatever. Maybe another Spring Training trip? Fort Myers? St. Lucie? See a game or two? Or maybe Nashville? **
 +
 +**6) Anything to say to your competitors? **

McNally is deep as well with Stroman, and McCullers Jr. but this being McNally though he has no bullpen, unless Whitlock becomes closer in Beantown, which doesn’t seem possible..there goes saves yet again. **+**The second pitch/pitch 1-2 went to McNally down at the eleven pick and while the highs of deGrom/Bieber are beyond him, the more sturdy Max/Cole combo should be more reliable.
