First (2018) Baseball Draft season

The First (2018) Baseball Draft season was the inaugural season of the Baseball Draft. Crazy, right?

It required GMs to select a new franchise at the start of each round, and select only players from that team until the next round (with no repeating of franchises).

Beyond it's bevy of obvious firsts, it's also notable for a 4-way tie requiring two play-in games for the #4 seed.

Point Given's Performance Enhancers would defeat tom's stone temple seattle pilots in 7 games in the first modern Baseball Draft World Series.

Postseason
