Welcome to the Roadwire Prospect Podcast.

I'm your host, James Anderson, and we're going to do a mock dynasty first year player draft tonight.

I've got Chris Welsh, I've got Chris Clagg, I've got Eric Cross.

You know those guys.

We're going to get right into this.

Welsh is on the clock.

First pick, and we'll get through as many picks as we can. Welsh, go for it. Oh, is it a little bit different. We all did this experiment. What was it? Mid-year right after the draft, this looks a little bit different with the first pick. It's unanimous, but I got to go with Roki Sasaki. He doesn't have a team, whether it's the Dodgers or Padres.

It doesn't matter.

It's a super young, controllable pitcher going straight to the majors.

Maybe one of the come into the league with one of the best spliters off the top triple digits on the fastball.

going to most likely go straight to the majors have a big major impact it kind of stinks doing

pitchers here but there was already a lack of consensus with the number one number two overall

pick it's kind of adjusted around so give me roki susaki with the first pick. Definitely a chalk pick. I think we've

all done the same thing. Clegg, you are up in the two hole. This is where it starts to get

interesting. Yeah. Layup pick up at one. Yeah, it's an interesting spot. I think you can go

several ways in the two spot, but I've had Travis

Bazana there all offseason will hold steady with him at two, just believe in the combo of skills.

And it's interesting, like it feels like that people have already begun to fade Bazana.

Like it's, it's kind of weird to watch that happening because he had a solid debut.

I mean, he wasn't utterly dominant,
