My Yankees shadow draft

28- Shooter Hunt (I don't mind the Cole pick but I would have gone with Hunt. If he can work on his control he could be very good.)
44- Tim Melville (I really hate the Bliech pick. I honestly can't see him make an impact in the majors. Melville is easily best player on the board. Give him the big signing bonus he wants. Better to waste the money on prospects than guys like Jaret Wright.)
75- Isaac Galloway (Loads of potential, not sure why he dropped so far in the real draft)
106- Alex Meyer (One of the best high school arms in the draft. I guess he dropped this far due to signability?)
140- Sonny Gray (Small, but great stuff)
170- Harold Martinez (Another high school player that has dropped, great potential)
So as you can see I went more with potential over closeness to the majors and signability. I guess the teams know more than I do because I can't see how Galloway, Meyer, Gray, and Martinez fell so much. Must be signability issues?

I think
Kyle Long over Harold Martinez, and Daniel Webb over Sonny Gray (no amount of money will make him sign), but otherwise pretty good stuff here

I almost picked Webb
over Gray. Wasn’t aware Gray would be a very tough sign.

Gray and Galloway
Would be tough signs. I guess if anyone could do it, its the Yanks. Gray told teams not to draft him, he’s going to Vandy.

Talent-wise it looks great
but you might get 2-3 of those guys signed at most.
