2018: the year everyone drafted wrong

[u/Bermut-Nundaloy]

None of the 10 best players in the 2018 draft were actually picked in the top 10. In fact, only 3 of them went in the first 2 rounds. Here's what a redraft would look like, if everyone actually drafted correctly. Pretty wild to imagine this alternate MLB.

Other notable players in the draft: Shane McClanahan, Drew Rasmussen, Kris Bubic, Lawrence Butler, Brice Turang. Bohm, India, and Mize weren't terrible picks. How would you redraft 2018?

Putting up the numbers he did in college while also playing quarterback was incredibly impressive

He had far less time to focus on baseball and he still has something like a .950 ops

Also he was projected to be an elite elite defender with a cannon for an arm

[u/aztechunter → u/Slow-Raccoon-9832]

Pretty quick on the base path too, little toddler steals lmao

[u/JackieDaytonaAZ → u/aztechunter]

he would be a perfectly average sized mlb player

[u/BedBubbly317 → u/JackieDaytonaAZ]

No he wouldn’t, the average height in MLB is almost 6’2 haha

[u/RecycledAccountName → u/BedBubbly317]

gotta be shorter for position players, no?

bunch of 6'5" lumberjack pitchers throwing off the average

[u/BedBubbly317 → u/RecycledAccountName]

Just slightly, it’s only about half an inch shorter when only considering position players and not pitchers too

mb my calculations are from before misiorowski entered the league
