"Last 6 years. He's an angel, right? He's an angel. He has been a Marlin, a guardian, ASTRO when he came up. He was on this list, and I said, I don't know who this is. And so I thought I would. He was probably some guy who was pitching like double a at 25. But no, he's a long-term major leaguer. Yeah. Well, the Marlins and the angels if it all might be recover there, Ben. I think you might have a World Series ring. He's only asked for us. Oh yeah. 8 innings with the angels last year. I may have seen them, but I guess they didn't make much of it. If anyone did it was probably you. Yeah. I thought about Jordan weems. Strongly considered Carlos Perez, who is a catcher who was in the big league, some years ago, and he hit 31 homers in triple-A last year, which he was in Las Vegas and that's probably part of it, but 5 72 slug. That's serious. And he was with the angels and Atlanta and Texas in the past. So considered him Jacob Wilson, who went from the national system to the KBO, and then really raked in triple-A last year, and then the Astros and the a's kind of played tug of war with him on waivers, James Reeves, Padres, lefty reliever. Joe biasini, I considered taking. He's been in the big leagues every year since 2016. Nick goody has been with the Yankees, Cleveland, Texas, has pitched decently, was in triple-A with the nansen Yankees, could strike out rate. Garrett, who's with the brewers now, not to be confused with Garrett whitlock, but he was with the rays, former first rounder, hit well in double-A last year, made it to triple-A. And I guess my final name on my board was Christian Santana who I think the reds have signed has a terrible approach, but per one of Eric Wong and Higgins passed scouting reports ridiculously gifted from a bat speed and arm strength standpoint. And he actually hit well at triple-A and his age 24 season last year and plays all of the infield positions. So that seems promising. But now we've gotten all these names on the record so that we can lament that we had the right idea, but drafted the wrong guys. We should have just read everybody to be safe. I mean, I would like to say the following, which is that one of our trends in this exercise is just being early to guys. We select them and they aren't good the year that we need them to be. But then they're Patrick wisdom. And you're like, oh, well, maybe saw something there. I just saw it before his previous team did, aren't I so clever? So that happens with us a fair amount, too. Yep. All right. Well, Ben, I hope you enjoyed your first 9 week free agent draft experience. I did. I don't know if my other 9 picks will outdo Jose Iglesias, but I hope they do. I don't know that you'll need them to. He could carry your team. He was eligible. Strange kind of technicality, but even so. Yeah, and Thomas Burton has already drafted the random control group and I balling the list that doesn't look like random dot org drafted anyone we drafted, although keon Braxton, former Jeff Sullivan favorite is on the random control group. So all of these names will at some point be added to the effectively well, drafts and competitions spreadsheet that's maintained by official effectively well statistician and like Mariners manager of analytics now. John who probably has better things to do than listen to this and write down the players we drafted, or maybe we can send them to him to save him some time, but I think I got everybody. Okay, well, I'll link to that on the show page if anyone's interested in where to find it. And this was fun. This is always fun. I hope it's fun for everyone, but it's definitely fun for us. Yeah, I'm excited to be a part of it. And because a lot of these players are still out there, any team people listening, you got plenty of hot tips here on some of the best mentors. So you have a chance here to snag some bargains and also get us some playing time in 2022. All right, that will do it for today and for this week. Thanks as always for listening. Always an engaging and stimulating exercise at least on our end. Someday I want someone to do an exhaustive study of minor league free agent draft strategy. Are there certain positions we should be prioritizing certain ages, certain teams? How much of a factor is previous big league experience? I think it's pretty big. I actually think all of my picks this year have already made their major league debuts. They're sort of pre approved, right? And MLP team decided at some point that they were worthy of playing time in the past. Doesn't mean that that will be the case in the present or the future, but it's a pretty decent sign past performance. Some indication of future results. So we've developed some feel for it, but there are probably some minor league free agent draft.
