GM NOTEBOOK: 2021-11-17

Okay, first ever expansion draft. Lots of chaff, some decent options, and I've got the first overall pick. I know exactly who to get first, and I just hope I can get to everyone else I want in time...

PITCHERS

SP: Daiki Iwashta (M), Nao Higashihama (L), Shotaro Kasahara (D), Masahiro Inui (F), Chihaya Sasaki (M), Kazuki Yabuta (C), Hiroki Kondo (E), Kosuke Sakaguchi (DB)

RP: Kyohei Nakamura (C), Shunta Nakatsuka (L), Jumpei Takahashi (E), Sachiya Yamasaki (B), Yu Sato (S), Shogo Noda (L), Hikaru Nakao (S)

BATTERS

C: Yoshtaka Isomura (C), Shuto Takajo (DB)

1B: Keita Sano (DB), Takumi Oshiro (G), Takumi Kitamura (G)

2B: Ryo Watanabe (F), Masahiro Nishino (B), Daisuke Nakai (DB), Hayato Mizowaki (D)

3B: Shu Masuda (H), Shumei Miyamoto (DB), Naomasa Yohkawa (T)

SS: Masaki Mimori (H), Kyohei Nagae (L), Tetsuro Nishida (H)

LF: Taiki Sekine (DB), Yuma Mune (B), Issei Endo (D)

CF: Kosuke Ito (D), Kotaro Yamasaki (S), Soichiro Tateoka (G)

RF: Taishi Kusumoto (DB), Masahiro Nakatani (T), Yutaro Itayama (T), Masaki Iwami (E)

I've blown past my budget (which was tiny to begin with tbf), but Ito and Masuda were steals. Sano as team captain is an obvious choice, too.

You'll also note a distinct lack of foreign players; I'll be addressing that through free agency!
