Rupp Rafters All-Time MLB Draft - Completed

Give me the 5 time All Star and 4 time World Series champion with 3 different teams. He won titles in 1991, 1992 and 1993 with two different teams: Twins and Blue Jays. Then 1 with the Tigers in 1984. One of the best postseason pitchers to ever take the mound, Jack Morris.
 
I will take the greatest pitcher to ever pitch with only three fingers, Mordecai Brown, to finish my rotation.
 
Draft is over! Thanks everyone started this on April 8th and completed 12 days later not bad.

Trying to decide when to start playoffs I can get them up before 5:30 today but I'm super busy tonight with softball so won't be back on till Midnight. I usually like the playoffs to start around 7 or 8 as those are prime voting hours.
 
I know I'm not in this. But still found it interesting. From the leftovers, I've come up with this team:

I had Chris Sale and Aroldis Chapman lined up to pick but fell in love with two other options. I know historically they don't have the raw data yet but those guys have good as stuff as anyone in history.
