Ok, 3B is filled, where to now? Oh, man-crush on Giancarlo (check)...
Round 3 now and there's my beautiful horse, Adrian Beltre... he's a-comin' to me and I am more than happy to put him in my CI-and-forget-it position. Alas, he is taken 2 picks before my turn and I take Panda for the BA-help instead.
By the time we're in the 9th round, I still have no first baseman. It wasn't intentional necessarily, but I always chose to fill other positions in the first 8 rounds and now I'm gettin' a little worried.
I'm looking at my rankings for the first basemen who are left... and who should be at the top of that list than none other than Mark Reynolds, Oregon Nut Cups' love child! We had this big, long debate on the value of Reynolds vs. Beltre on the Razzball forums and obviously it planted a seed in my head, because I was dismissive of Reynolds previous to the discussion. So, pick 103, that's me choosing Mark Reynolds without a gun to my head and slotting him in as my first baseman.
I owe it all to you, ONC! (as well as destroying any hopes I had of posting a good total in the BA category!)
