"Who doesn’t want to dunk on the Mets for taking a guy with 14 career college innings in the first round?"

Very good article and your point of the Braves having a 'portfolio' plan seems laudable. However, Pete Dwyer's very good article in Fansided two days ago rated teams based on "Draft Trust Scores" using data over the past five years. Those rated highest included Seattle, Tampa, Milwaukee, San Francisco. (Those rated lowest included Philadelphia which primarily uses trades and FA's to construct a team). Atlanta's position wasn't stated but they were not in the upper echelon.

Amazing work here! Really like how you showed the real big picture vs draft grades.
