  1. 18: Ike Davis (best bat left on the board, I really like him)

    22: Christian Freidrich (a steal with pick #22, should move quickly)

    33: Zach Collier (after taking pretty safe college guys at 18 and 22, I decided to go with the high reward OF. I was debating between him, DeVall, and Scheppers, but decided Scheppers might fall to the second round. If I had known he wouldn't, I might have gone with him.)

    68: Tim Melville (If I'm the Mets and I think he has a chance of signing, I take him here. If I think he wants way too much money, and I mean WAY TOO MUCH, then I'd go with Tyler Sample.)

    100: Ross Seaton (Really glad to get him this late, he has great potential, and he already has a good fastball and slider)

    134: Adrian Nieto

    164: Zach Putnam (I love getting him this late)

    194: Isaac Galloway (Love getting him, it was between him and Thames. If I could see more of Thames medical record, I would probably have gone with him)

    I made these picks without knowing who would fall, etc. I made them while the Mets were on the clock.

  2. All you do is bitch about how the mets don't do this and they don't do that. Man it's the draft 90 percent don't even make it to the Majors. Sit back and enjoy the show. It will be ok.
