Except you can get him in round 3 in this game.

I got the 30th pick in my recent one, went with Puig, then turned around and drafted Harper with the 1st pick of the 2nd round.

Finished out my outfield in the 3rd round with Jason Heyward.

Lineup looks like:

1) LF Ichiro
2) DH Yasiel Puig
3) RF Bryce Harper
4) 3B Pedro Alvarez
5) CF Jason Heyward
6) SS Derek Jeter
7) C AJ Pierzynski
8) 1B Adam Dunn
9) 2B Jurickson Profar

Rotation:

1) Tim Lincecum
2) Julio Teheran
3) Taijuan Walker
4) Zack Wheeler
5) Wily Peralta

Rotation should get better when Teheran (A, 23 years old), Walker (A, 21 Years Old), and Wheeler (A, 23 Years Old) develop. Meanwhile I have CJ Cron waiting in the wings at 1B, Vince Harman backing up Pierzynski at Catcher, and Jace Peterson and Erik Faulk waiting in AAA until Jeter retires.

Really like this team. Great mix of young+old. Plenty of room to grow as well.

I did 25 rounds of a 30-team control franchise. I picked Mike Trout first, Kershaw second.

I would draft 4 solid starters in a row starting with Kershaw followed by people like Price and Cliff Lee, Halmels and such.

My reasoning is that pitching wins games. Plain and simple. If you have pitchers like Kershaw, Price, Wainwright etc. and they only give up 1-2 runs a game, all you need is a very mediocre offense.

The Atlanta Braves used that theory in the 1990's all be it a solid theory it got them 14 straight almost championship seasons, you still need a good offense to go with that pitching.
