I have confidence that Casserly will talk them into accepting a 3rd rounder and a future 2nd.
Don't have the time or inclination to compare every team, but a few thoughts on my own draft. I went into the draft with my usual focus on SP and...

Smeg took J.J. Hardy, SS PSJ took DeJesus, OF I'm taking Liriano, SP with some potential.

There's also a stat called zone rating that measures the % of balls hit into a fielder's traditional zone that are turned into outs, thereby...
