So, before this season a Diamond Mind keeper league that I'm in, held a draft for 06 draftees and foreign free agents.  Five rounds. Picks can be traded, so you'll see the same teams a bunch.  I'm basically posting this because I'm interested to see how prospects are valued in actual exchange mode, like in a draft, and I thought this might be a good way of glancing at how prospects' perceived value has shifted over the season.

1.- SF - Andrew Miller - SP

My team is the Red Sox.  I had no first round pick.  I ended up drafting: Jason Place, Jon Jay, Chris Huseby, Scott Sizemore, and Clayton Tanner.  I felt pretty decent about my draft at the time, especially about getting Huseby that late, but now, a year late, it's a pretty weak haul.  

I think the painful thing is that I was choosing b/w Jason Place and Matt Antonelli for my first (2nd round) pick, but was spooked a bit by Antonelli's lack of power in his short trial run, even though I'd identified and tracked him from the time of the draft as someone I wanted from his scouting reports.  I actually had Antonelli higher on my draft board, but lost my nerve.  The second (2nd round) pick was between Jon Jay and Adrian Cardenas, and I picked wrong again, it seems; looking back at my draft board, I had Cardenas a couple slots above Jay, but let myself talk myself  out of it, especially after reading John's strong opinions and grade for Jay on this site.  Again, I should've gone with my initial instincts and not relied so heavy on the smallish, early sample-size.  I still feel very good about Huseby, long term; he was the person left on the draft board I most wanted, and actually took him this time.

It'll be interesting looking at this draft again a year from now . . .
