Here is to hoping that the owner right before my pick, some time in the future, takes Cesar Tovar or Tony Clark... so I can get Ty Cobb? Or someone takes Ray Boone or Bill Rigney... so I can get Babe Ruth?  Just WISHful thinking, is it too much to ask for - YES - nobody is that naive, right?  Let's trudge onward & hope for future GIFTS!?

The four players picked one spot in front of me.... Pedro Martinez, Stan Musial, Mike Piazza (I passed on earlier), Greg Maddux..... sigh.

I'll open up some nice hitting options with this next pick... I like his flexibility, as I can use a 46-IP version (0.78 whip) or 379-IP version (0.98 whip), and be happy either way.

THAT is why I did NOT take GREG Holland, to keep Maddux out of play... Oh well, too late?  You have to THINK in this draft & NOT just take the best player that will help your team?
Giving the next person drafting a Maddux, Musial, PedroM, etc, etc, hurts but which hurts more? Giving them a player like that or taking a worse player than who you could have had. You are hurting yourself that way too!
