1. \xa0 \xa0We had two big prospects get the call and make their MLB Debut. \xa0Are you interested in either player?
a. \xa0 \xa0Andy Pages
i. \xa0 \xa0Does he get full-time at-bats? \xa0If so, what does the outfield in LAD look like?

i. \xa0 \xa0He was a little shaky on his first start against a Quad-4 lineup.
2. \xa0 \xa0The Red Sox pitching duo of Kutter Crawford (21.1 IP, 0.42 ERA, 10 K/9, 3.4 BB/9, 0 wins) and Tanner Houck (26.2 IP, 1.35 ERA, 9.5 K/9, 0.68 BB/9 3 wins), have been terrific. \xa0Are you buying their starts?
3. \xa0 \xa0What one or two players that you drafted that you wish you would have left for someone else?
4. \xa0 \xa0Who is your early personal MVP on your teams. \xa0A guy you believed in and took earlier than others?
