Summary

Last season, Heath drafted a SP with each of his first four picks. How did that work out? Can you win with that strategy? We also answer a quick question about Jo Adell (8:00) before getting into the mock draft ... So, how much should we be valuing SPs in this format (12:00)? Lucas Giolito went ahead of Jose Altuve for crying out loud! Should Gerrit Cole be drafted second overall (23:05)? Was George Springer a reach at 17th overall (25:43)? Was Fernando Tatis a steal in Round 5 (28:00)? Can you win if you draft mostly hitters early (31:00)? And how should you value Shohei Ohtani (32:55)? ... We go through the first five rounds with our commentary (35:00) ... Your emails at fantasybaseball@cbsi.com
