So many tempting options on the 1965 Giants, but I can't pass up Stretch.

I try to pick best player available and not purposely mess up someone since they will be picking for me half the time but this one should give some better options than most:

1959 Bobby Shantz
New York Yankees

In terms of pure star power, I think Round 5 is shaping up to be the biggest round yet.

Five inner-circle Hall of Famers--Musial, Mize, Mays, McCovey, and Perry--plus two more MVPs (Cooper and Shantz) with three picks still to go, and the 1959 Yankees--a roster with 4 more Hall of Famers on it--queued up for the next pick.

I have the random team for Round 6 queued up, so as soon as Ron picks, we'll start back the other way.

I can’t really afford him. But that sounds like a problem for a later round….. so let’s go with
