Paul, don't have too much regret about Eckersley, though. Had we played a serpentine, no limit rules, I'm pretty sure I would have drafted him in second round. Jenkins is really the bonus player that I wouldn't have with the no limit rule. In fact, the idea of drafting either Jenkins or Hands really came to me at the last moment, when looking at scenarios, I thought, without being certain, of course, that the third round would play in my favour, with the Dodgers probably picking Smith (I was right) and the Padres picking Bruce Hurst (was wrong here---but the Expos played my hand by picking the Spaceman). So I thought, hey why not gamble it!! Having Schiraldi as a backup to Eck made easier my decision.
