I think congratulations should be extended to the guy that provided this opportunity to these players. I'm sure a ton of time and effort has gone into the Goodwill Series, and Bob Williams deserves some props for that.

Congratulations, very impressive!
Was that the single contributing factor of them being drafted or were they good before they attended the international event?

thank you for your kind words. I believe in the "common tread".
Each player had a drive, an obsession, patience and specific skills to thrive in the game regardless of the competition.
Several players, I would have "bet against" their ability to play in the Major Leagues. For this reason, I no longer make predictions for the player age 16-18 year old.
