The difference between the 2nd and 6th pick is negligible. Sometimes the best player doesn't go first because of contract expectations.


This. Some years a draft has a very clear-cut #1 like a Strasburg or Harper. Like Groome this year seemed like a consensus top-5 pick, fell to 12. And right now I only see where Atlanta would be picking at 3 if season ended today.

I don't know the specifics, but I know the number 1 pick is way better than the number 2 pick due to money reasons and being able to sign your later picks.

Don't know how much that trickles down past 1

Ya think?Season isn't ending today Einstien and now the Braves are 2 games back with 5 to play.

We'll see what happens but I'd hate to see us endure this shite season to lose out on a potential
big time contributor just because we got hot in September.
