EDIT: What a great event! Click above to watch the replay and here’s the Google doc that tracked all the picks.
Last week we announced the creation of the first ever Prospects Live MLB Draft, a 30-team live draft event where each MLB team is manned by an expert of that team.
What: A three-round draft held on Fantrax meant to imitate the upcoming MLB draft, complete with compensation and competitive balance picks. Eddy, Ralph and Matt will be live the entire time breaking down the picks with Prospects Live video where applicable along with a rotation of drafters and other Prospects Live writers.
When: Stream begins Friday, May 1 at 8:30 p.m. EST. Draft is scheduled for 8:45 p.m. EST.
