A wide smile and perfect hair

Oh, there's plenty of other balls in the sea. Plus, you're not very talented.
He has good splits and eye, is left handed, and has played his entire career in a very strong hitter's park. He's basically a poor man's Louis Sowers, who himself is a .300+ career hitter.

In the end, it comes down to throwing one pitch after another, and seeing what happens. With each new consequence, the game begins to take shape.
So, uh, I just glanced at the draft order, and, um, how the hell do I have the first pick? I thought the first tiebreaker was previous season record? I mean I'm not complaining but I am super confused.

E: apparently the first tiebreaker is run differential, then runs scored, then a coin flip. I guess the previous previous season record doesn't enter into it at all.

head to head -> division record -> run differential -> last season's record -> coin flip is what I have saved

if Cervantes isn't asking much, sure, why not. It's a funny little thing to keep going. If it was actually gonna cost me any coin, I'd just let him go.

and Ted Feller could find a home somewhere but dude certainly wants a lot of money in arb!
