Tough choices faced us in the draft. We were tempted to go with Steve Yeager a catcher, or Ken Reitz who plays third, both available probably earlier than our eventual first pick, Enos Cabell. Enos (here I cheat and look at real life stats) plays longer and better than the others and he plays both first and third. In round 2 we saw that Goose Gossage was available so we grabbed him. I have some second thoughts since we forwent another batter, and we might have at least gotten Celerino Sanchez to platoon with Garrett at third, but it means we have a bullpen of Tug McGraw lefty and Gossage righty for the next who knows how many years.
Third pick was a catcher, Joe Goddard, not much value, and the other two rounds got us filler and not much more.
