GDavis selects Mark Davidson, OF, Mn
Nacho selects Larry Herndon, OF, Dt
Ryno selects Calvin Schiraldi, RP, Bo

Attarack is on the clock, followed by the Hip Young Popes and then the Nimrods for two.

Note: Since there's only one RP left and Attarack has one RP spot to fill, they automatically get Donnie Moore with their final round (16th round) pick. So this is the last pick for them. Ryno has already filled his roster.

HIP YOUNG POPES "SHOCK" FANTASY RBI WORLD, SELECT RAFAEL SANTANA

LOS ANGELES - Hip Young Popes GM Gerlost made a stunning pick in the Fantasy RBI Draft today, choosing to select Rafael Santana for his team in the 16th and final round. This pick was made despite the fact that there were several other bench players to chose from. This marks the first time in Fantasy RBI history that Santana has been drafted so high.

"I know this is a huge risk, but we think that with the right coaching and training, Rafael can perhaps get an infield hit in one of the two or three times he gets to bat all season," Gerlost said in a prepared statement relased by The Vatican's official press agency. "Plus, we're going to be pumping him full of every steroid known to mankind, and many more that aren't."

Despite Gerlost's enthusiasm, others weren't so keen on the selection.

"I don't know what the boy is thinking," said ESPN and Rivals.com recruiting guru Tom Lemming. "Wally Backman had much better 40 times, and Steve Lake outperformed Santana in the bench press, doing 25 reps at 200 lbs. compared to Santana's three. You don't get the nickname 'I Suck' for nothing."

Al Pedriq was said to be "inconsolable" at the news that Santana was picked before him.
