In the 18th round, we selected former left-handed closer Jeremy Pastva for the 322nd overall pick.

Jeremy was drafted with the intention of being slotted as our left-handed setup guy and backup closer. As it turns out, our pen is very left-heavy, so that doesn't really help him to stand out.

He was all star from 2015 - 2017, making 54 saves in 58 opportunities in 2017. He became a free agent at the end of 2017,...

Aaron Jones, a 36 year old center fielder, was drafted by us in the 16th round, for the 286th overall pick.

Jones was still 35 when we drafted him, but is definitely our oldest every-day starter. He also leads the team in stolen bases so far, with 13 this season. While left field is his 'natural' position, he has still done an amazing job for us in center, sporting a .970 fielding percentage, and a ZR of +6.4. He even has...

Round 15 saw us draft second baseman Josh Clark.

Clark is now our starting third baseman. He is a liability at the plate, being one of our two everyday starters with a negative WAR. He is one of the primary reasons that I have trouble waiting for Frank Gaskill to be ready.

That being said, Clark is an excellent defensive player, and may very well have made up for his poor bat with plays he has made. He has a...

Pick number 13 brought us left-handed reliever Shaun Love.

Shaun was also drafted in the 13th round of his rookie draft.

He could probably have benefited from more time in the minors, but we decided we was good enough to cover some innings now and hoped that he would continue developing from the bullpen. In some ways, his numbers look worse the results he's given, as they are skewed by a couple of really terrible...

Inaugural Draft Results: Jagger Binson

Going forward, we'll just cover the draftees that are on the active roster as of today.

Which brings us to our 12th pick (214th overall), right-handed closer Jagger Binson.

By this point in the draft, we could seem to find any potential bull-pen members that didn't have a weakness. Binson's, of course, is his low 'movement' rating, risking giving up home-runs. While in reality this is probably worse than having...
