Not a surprise. Since you have an artificial maximum on what you can spend on the next player, and high-end pitchers are generally more expensive than high-end hitters, it makes sense that the draft is heavy on pitching on the front end.

i drafted all hitters so far. I figured get 3 top hitters then get second tier pitching $10,000.00- $9,000.00 to balance out.
First draft in a real draft, hopefully i am not a bottom feeder this season.

Well, as the person right before me (!) drafted Mike Schmidt (who I thought would be my next pick), we will go with a good starting pitcher:
