I am interested to see how Salvador Perez performs this year. Not a big name in most prospect circles, but hitting .300 with 11HR in your first 300ABs is bound to garner some attention. I could see something like .280 15-20HR. I will take that from my catcher.

I've had him on the list for a couple of rounds. I also think he should bounce back nicely.
Hunter is old but durable and although I had Eaton/Revere targeted for this spot I'll take the vet. If he bats #2 all year he could be a huge bargain hitting in front of Miggy/Prince.

Lesson #1 from this mock- With the selections of Jesus Montero, Salvador Perez, Wilin Rosario and Miguel Montero in the 13th and 14th rounds, this confirms my earlier thinking -- despite the temptation, let your league mates take the C early and you shrewdly, fill in other needs; there is absolutely NO reason to waste an early C pick in single C, redraft leagues. Not that I don't like my Carlos Santana pick in 7th round (7.07, #91 overall), but my SP squad would feel a lot different to me had I gone Max Scherzer, Chris Sale or Matt Moore as opposed to Sanatana, then draft a C in 13/14. My intent was originally to do that, but didn't assume to see Santana there "so late". Notwithstanding, lesson learned as I'd go into battle with any 4 of those backstops. Great value picks, fellas.

when giantsfan comes on I'll have picks ready for therock and rj, so the turn will move quickly. Maybe we can get a full round in.
Agree on C, been saying my C pick was only justified on raw stats but my original plan was to take my C as my very last pick. 11 C's are taken and there's at least 3 good ones left.

I'm stunned catchers are going so late. I'm interested to check out some other mocks and see if this is a consistent trend. But had I known Montero would be available this late I think I would have passed on Buster early.

That's my mindset from this point forward too. I was curious to where he would go so I've been passing on the thought of him thinking other names would fly off the board first.

GiantsFan14 wrote:Saw RJ already had a catcher so I thought I could wait on McCann. He's supposedly ahead of schedule and could be huge value this late.
He's risky, but there are so many catchers out there, if it were a real league with 1 catcher I'm willing to gamble. All of the catchers being taken now are offering great value. Looks like outfield is the place to reach early.
