(Editor's note: This is the start of a series of posts briefly breaking down each team's draft. It will culminate in the debut of the 2010 Power Rankings at the end.)
Rick is always a force in this league, and he took his fans on a roller-coaster ride at the end of last season. Apparently, he enjoys it, because the draft had some ups and downs for him.
Focus: Pitching, as usual. Like he does every year, Rick loaded up on pitching - starters and relievers. Why question him at this point? He simply gets it done year in and year out.
Storyline: Rick was the root of one of the most chaotic draft scenes of all time. Due to an autodrafter, we had to improvise with a strict set of rules. Rick chose to go all Jack Bauer on our asses, becoming a rogue drafter. He didn't follow rules and still got his way. Straight out of the TV show.
Headscratcher: Always meticulous about his moves, one has to wonder what Rick was thinking leaving an empty hitting spot. Did he forget Kendry Morales isn't OF-eligible? Check his roster if you don't believe me. He's missing an outfielder! Go ahead, click the little "boneheaded moves" label below and see who leads the count for posts about him.
