@Dr Pepper You have one more pick. I'm glad Stan's starting. He was gonna be my first bench player. I consider him to be one of the dozen MLB players of all time.

I drafted my first eight players based on their NEL OPS+ and ERA+ and thought it would be fun to get Mariano, but I didn't think I would draft a closer early enough. Have a great day!​
