Twins-friendly Cubs fan here--do the Twins usually play the Draft "straight" or do they often go way under-slot/over-slot in order to create value? I see them picking Clark or whoever falls to 1-5 and then balancing the HS risk with a college bat (Gelof?) at 34. Assuming you can get him for $2m ($480k under) or so, that leaves roughly $3.1m combined for their picks at 49 & 82. You could get very creative there and go after a "tough sign" HS pitcher...kind of what the Cubs did with Jackson Ferris last year. I envy you guys--have fun and thanks for the great work, Jamie!
