After the success of the American League Draft the National League Owners decided to also hold their player draft under the shadows of Mt Rushmore in western South Dakota. The rules are the same as the American League. I will make the picks for the Atlanta Braves while the computer will pick for the other teams. When Atlanta's first pick came the crowd went wild and started chanting Henry,Henry,Henry. A hush came over the room as the announcement of the Braves pick was made. The Atlanta Braves pick Outfielder( then a long pause) Wille Mays. The Atlanta fans were devastated having one of their arch rivals picked over Henry Aaron. What was Wade thinking? The next two picks were also greeted with boos as 2 pitchers (Don Drysdale and Al Jackson) were picked over local favorites Joe Torre and Rico Carty. When the dust had cleared only the old ,washed up, local favorite Ed Mathews was picked for Atlanta. The fans are going to have to get used to a lot of new faces. Wade is hoping that a winning team will win them over. Here is that team
OF- Deron Johnson, Willie Mays and Billy Williams
Inf Eddie Mathews, Leo Cardenas, Tommy Helms, Chuck Hiller and Orlando Cepeda
Catchers Clay Dalrymple and Jerry Grote
Starting Pitchers Don Drysdale,Al Jackson, Jack Fisher, Larry Jaster and Steve Carlton
Relief Pitchers Joe Hoerner, Bob Priddy and Joe Gibbon
The rest of the league will be announced soon.
