Forget your chores and homework or your nine-to-five responsibilities and honey-do list. With fantasy baseball drafts getting underway in the coming days (that is, if you haven't had yours already), nothing is more important than preparing for your player picking.
(OK, maybe fundamental stuff, like food consumption and basic hygiene, but you get the idea.)
What's the best way to prep? Well, hopefully, you've been following along with the Bleacher Report 300 position rankings, checking in on the B/R Big Board featuring the top 150 overall players and reading up on some key sleepers.
But by far the most enjoyable activity is partaking in a mock draft. You know, just your basic practice picking of players for the fake version of baseball that we all love so much.
The idea is to simulate a real fantasy baseball draft in order to get a better understanding of trends in roster construction and each player's average draft position (ADP).
Besides, it's plain fun.
Back in late February, fellow Bleacher Report fantasy writer Andrew Gould participated in a mock draft and wrote all about it. But player values change all the time, practically daily, due to performances, injuries and transactions. That's why it's time to recap another mock, carried out by yours truly.
What follows is a look at how everything went down.
