Nah, I think you misunderstand. I definitely didn't want Eichenberg. In fact, I didn't want any of Cosmi, Radunz, Eichenberg, Leatherwood, Mayfield- I thought they were all overrated coming in. It's one of the reasons I was so staunchly pro-Sewell. I do think the dropoff is significant. Entering tonight, I had my eyes on Humphrey, Jenkins, Davis and Dickerson.
But it's not even about who we picked. I was fully prepared to be disappointed (what are the chances that they were going to pass on all those guys? lol). It's that we went off the board with Carman. Going off the board has consequences even if it ends up being the right player, especially for a team like us that is the target of so much ridicule league-wide. It's hard enough to pull this team out of the abyss without stacking the cards against ourselves as well.
But whatever, it's over now. Live and learn.
