Did anyone in REDSZONE get the last two picks correctly?

Did anyone predict both Alonso and Leake?

Proof, please if you did.


I'm only bringing this up because it's so hard to predict this thing.


While I didn't "specifically" say Alonso, I said that they'd take the best Left-handed power available with that pick, but I said I wanted Gordon Beckham. I then said Kyle Gibson last year, even though he had the injury. I would have ignored the injury.

No. I thought the Reds were locks to take Beckham instead of Alonso.

Same here. I thought Beckham to the Reds was a lock. I also loved the Mike Leake pick.

I know several got Leake correct, though.

I thought Beckham or Smoak and last season don't remember for sure but Mike Minor stands out in my mind.
