I wanted to try a young team to develop talent and there were certain players I wanted to have on the team. I used the OSFM version 1 rosters and did a little bit of homework regarding where everyone goes. This is the team I drafted as best I can remember. I used the Tampa Bay Rays as my team because I wanted to say I managed their Triple A team from Durham, NC. I've been to that ballpark and it's amazing.

C Travis d'Arnaud
1B Paul Goldschmidt
2B Jurickson Profar
SS Manny Machado
3B Nolan Arenado
RF Jason Heyward
CF Oscar Taveras
LF Bryce Harper
DH Giancarlo Stanton

Backups were Chase Utley, Josh Rutledge, Gerardo Parra, and someone whose name is slipping my mind.

SP Matt Harvey
SP Michael Penada
SP Zach Wheeler?? Think his name was Zach
SP Michael Wacha
SP Danny Hultzen

RP Trevor Rosenthal
RP Carter Capps
RP Henry Rodriguez
RP Drew Storen
RP Kelvin Herrera
CP Bruce Rondon?? Think his name is Bruce. He's an 80 rated rookie with 99 velocity.

Triple A is stacked as well as my worst pitcher there is ranked 75 and all with A potential. Notables in the minors that I can remember are:

SP Dylan Bundy
SP Jose Fernandez
OF Starling Marte
OF Jackie Bradley Jr
SS Trevor Story
1B Yonder Alonso
SP Trevor Bauer

All in all a young team that I'm going to try to play with for a while. At least until the season is over and I can't resign them all haha

Forgot to mention most of the bullpen was acquired via trade after the draft.

Suffer from Insomnia, so I was up late the other night and figured I would try something...

I used 30 team control and did a fantasy draft, but instead of random teams, I drafted each teams real life 25-man roster (took about 2 hours) and then auto picked the rest of the draft...prospects ended up on different teams and to say the results were interesting in an understatement.

A few to note....

BAL - Oscar Tavares
BOS - Francisco Lindor, Bruce Rondon
NYY - Yaseil Puig (he should hit like 40 HR by the time he is a full-timer)
TB - Billy Hamilton, Kyle Gibson
TOR - Bubba Starling, James Paxton

CWS - Jurickson Profar, Mike Olt
DET - Brett Jackson
MIN - Trevor Bauer, Henry Owens
CLE - Joc Pederson
KC - Jake Odorizzi

LAA - Jorge Soler, Jose Fernandez
TEX - Nick Franklin
OAK - Billy Hamilton, Archie Bradley
SEA - Zach Wheeler
HOU - Miguel Sano, Dylan Bundy

NYM - Danny Hultzen, Addison Russell
WAS - Tony Cingrani, Kolten Wong
PHI - Carlos Correa, Kevin Gausman
MIA - Wil Myers, Mike Zunino
ATL - Tijuan Walker, Gerrit Cole, Jameson Tallion (Braves continue to draft solid SP)

MIL - Nick Castellanos
CHC - Archie Bradley, Trevor Story
STL - Christian Yelich, Tyler Skaggs, Chris Archer
PIT - Xander Bogaerts, Mason Williams
CIN - Jackie Bradley Jr., Kyle Crick

ARI - Corey Hawkins, Gary Sanchez
SF - Travis d'Arnaud
LAD - Nolan Arenado, Matt Barnes
SD - Casey Kelly, Allen Webster
COL - Noah Syndergaard, Marcell Ozuna

of course, there are other A and B prospects I am forgetting but I was just listing the few that you guys are more familiar with. So I am setting 2 profiles, I am going to play as the Mets (maybe call up Addison Russell right away) and see how this plays out. It will be interesting to see who breaks camp with the big club, as the CPU tends to call up the higher rated players regardless of age and experience. I wouldn't be surprised if Puig, Wheeler and a few others are on their MLB rosters on OD.

Has any of you fellas ever just picked 1 team, and did an auto draft letting the computer do everything on auto, then just work with the team the computer gave you?

Yeah I believe we were taking about it a few pages back, I like it, it puts you at the mercy of the CPU's terrible trade logic, but it's always interesting, I usually let myself draft my Ace and my Lineup cornerstone I the first 2 picks then let the CPU take over from there... An idea I had last night was to do 30 team control, auto draft, then hold R2 (without looking) on the main screen to pick a random team and run with it... This also allows you to vito any terrible CPU trades in a fantasy draft franchise...
