Which reserve picks will either:
a) help me fill in the holes on my team, or
b) be the most valuable to a team playing for next year
The promise or potential of a 20 yr old AA pitcher picked in round 8 of the reserve draft for $2 is likely worth much more than just picking a guy you might need there.
I've got 4 or 5 reserve picks I hope to use this season. The rest are just currency.

What is the purpose of the reserve draft?
Should you be getting minor leaguers that match your major leaguers?
Or just minor leaguers?
Is it just a question of "Which player is most likely to earn me money this year?" or maybe "which player is most likely to earn me money this year and next year?"
