Winning the lottery isn’t so bad.
I was communicating with a friend at Clemson during the first round of Sunday night’s Major League Baseball Draft, and they told me that keeping one of the two players who were in line to be picked – Bubba Chandler and Will Taylor – would be like winning the lottery. Keeping both would be like winning the lottery and then finding out you hit the Powerball as well.
Well, winning the lottery is still pretty good if you were thinking you might not win anything.
Both Taylor and Chandler were highly thought of heading into the draft, and there were some mock drafts that had both players being picked in the first 25 picks.
