What the balls is with this supplemental round? I'd support another round for EC teams (plus the Coburns and Biosparks, I suppose), but teams like the Bangers, the Unicorns, the Cultists, and the Eazy W's don't need picks!

Robinson Cano's worst BA in the majors was .278 and that's in a year where his BABIP was 40 points off its career average. And, Cano has a 11.8 strikeout percentage over his years in the majors, as opposed to a 17.8% mark for the rest of the majors. Cano is very, very good at putting a bat on a ball.
