But you have to take each class and what it's given to you.

And they play the let's manipulate the bonus pool based on what's there up top.

Because there wasn't that guy that screamed at them that they had to take them.

Did Connor Griffin's early success help embolden them to take Seth Hernandez?

Maybe a little bit.

It's a little apples to oranges because they're so different in terms of the kind of players they are.

But I do think that it really depends on the class.

Looking ahead to this year where they picked fifth, I haven't really dug into the draft too much.

I would imagine that given the same opportunity, they'll make the same decision.

It also helps when you have the large pool of talent starting to amass at the upper levels that they have now.

You might be able to feel more comfortable in taking that risk in a guy that might develop more slowly.

Then when you take that guy and he gets to the big leagues at age 19, you feel even better about it.

It's my pleasure.

Thanks for having me.
