COMMENT
I put up my shadow draft for comparison. The Real Twins went heavy with the projectable high schoolers, with Revere being the controversial pick in everyone's mind. I overdrafted Smith and Davis big-time in the shadow draft. I have to admit that I don't understand why everyone is so hot for Cale Iorg: he hasn't played in two years and I personally didn't have him as a candidate for the top ten rounds, but apparently the Mock Twins SD and the real Tigers SD disagreed.
