Alright, I'll take the 1955-56 Yankees.

I believe I get first pick of free agents, so I'll take 1955 Willie Mays and 1956 Warren Spahn.

Division: AL EAST

Balls will be flying at Yankee Stadium.

As schwarze said before the draft, you can't count on people to act rationally. Even with Norm Cash, I had this team ranked as the 42nd best team available out of 43 in this entire league. So of course, they get picked in a 24-team draft.

Free agents:
1962 Sandy Koufax
1961 Jim @&%$#! Gentile

I didn’t do any research or ranking. I was torn between two teams and inevitably chose wrong. I was also torn between the NL Central or West. According to the above, I erred again.

The 63-64 Yanks were the other team I debated at pick#22. Although Darth went a completely different direction with his free agents.

For my 52-53 Indians I will take the following free agents:
53 Spahn
53 Musial.
