It has been nearly three years since the UDL held its inaugural draft. Here's a look back on who was taken in the first round.

# 1. Mike Trout - Bringers of W.A.R.

Since start of 2017: .306/.450/.639, 271 runs, 105 home runs, 231 RBI, 54 stolen bases Congrats to the former owner of Bringers of W.A.R. on not messing up.

# 2. Mookie Betts - Havana Pigs (Now Mookie and the Betts)

Since start of 2017: .296/.389/.524, 319 runs, 71 home runs, 229 RBI, 68 stolen bases Probably the right pick at #2.

# 3. Bryce Harper - The Amazins (Now Toranno Beisbol Birds)

Since start of 2017: .273/.392/.520, 255 runs, 80 home runs, 257 RBI, 22 stolen bases Not a bad pick. Especially 3 years ago for a dynasty league.

# 4. Kris Bryant - Big League Choo (Now Forgot about Trea)

Since start of 2017: .289/.398/.519, 248 runs, 62 home runs, 174 RBI, 11 stolen bases Bryant's had some ups and downs, but drafting a young MVP is hard to fault.

# 5. Jose Altuve - Darkness Falls (Now Wayne's Hardware)

Since start of 2017: .322/.387/.500, 237 runs, 51 home runs, 178 RBI, 53 stolen bases A 5-category stud who won MVP the year after being drafted. Solid pick.

# 6. Manny Machado - Edwin Parrot (Now Discount Bob's Couch Emporium)

Since start of 2017: .275/.339/.506, 222 runs, 95 home runs, 268 RBI, 26 stolen bases It was a rough 2017 by Machado's own standards, but he's bounced back some. Can't fault the pick here at all.

# 7. Nolan Arenado - !Ponche!

Since start of 2017: .303/.373/.568, 267 runs, 97 home runs, 316 RBI, 7 stolen bases COORS. But yeah... Good pick.

# 8. Xander Bogaerts - Maine BullMoose (Now Big League Chu)

Since start of 2017: .289/.364/.487, 244 runs, 54 home runs, 241 RBI, 26 stolen bases A very risky pick back at the end of 2016. After a so-so 2017, he's turned out to be a pretty solid shortstop. I guess it worked out.

# 9.Carlos Correa - Rubber Ducks (Now Springfield Isotopes)

Since start of 2017: .281/.358/.492, 168 runs, 50 home runs, 184 RBI, 6 stolen bases A pretty risky pick taking such a youngin'. Unfortunately injuries have hurt a bit, but he proves mostly solid when on the field.

# 10. Clayton Kershaw - Yogi Bears (Now Vengeful Tuna)

Since start of 2017: 2.60 ERA, 0.999 WHIP, 465 strikeouts, 447.1 innings The first pitcher off the board. Hard to fault taking the shot at a generational pitcher with pick #10.

# 11. Alex Bregman - Operation Rot Storm (Now Royal Rooters)

Since start of 2017: .280/.380/.510, 266 runs, 76 home runs, 237 RBI, 31 stolen bases A recklessly risky pick that raised some eyebrows at the end of 2016. Luckily it has mostly worked out for the Breg man.

# 12. Paul Goldschmidt - Mean Machine (Now Preston Perennials)

Since start of 2017: .283/.382/.522, 273 runs, 90 home runs, 255 RBI, 25 stolen bases Solid pick. We'll see if he can continue turning it around this year.

# 13. Anthony Rizzo - Barrons (Now Cat Scratch Fever)

Since start of 2017: .281/.387/.498, 239 runs, 77 home runs, 279 RBI, 20 stolen bases Finished 4th in MVP voting in 2016. Really not a bad pick.

# 14. Josh Donaldson - Back2Back Jax

Since start of 2017: .261/.375/.523, 153 runs, 64 home runs, 161 RBI, 7 stolen bases Injuries obviously haven't helped, but in 2016 he was coming off an MVP season and having another great year. A fair pick for sure.

# 15. Corey Seager - Strikeout for Harambe (Now Acuna Matata)

Since start of 2017: .286/.367/.460, 142 runs, 32 home runs, 132 RBI, 5 stolen bases Another bite from the injury bug. He was drafted as a 22-year-old winning ROY and finishing third in MVP voting. Hopefully he can avoid further injuries.

# 16. Edwin Encarnacion - Hone Ron Runners

Since start of 2017: .246/.352/.497, 240 runs, 100 home runs, 286 RBI, 5 stolen bases Now with 8 straight seasons of 30+ homers, this was the first case of everyone looking at the young "dynasty studs" while Mario is doing smart things.

# 17. Trevor Story - Cobra Kai

Since start of 2017: .272/.335/.527, 230 runs, 83 home runs, 248 RBI, 47 stolen bases Was relatively risky at the time, but he's turned out to be the 5-category-stud of Coors.

# 18. DJ Peterson (Compensation) - Rockers (Now Boston Narb Sluggers)

D.J. Peterson has yet to reach the majors. As some may recall, the real pick here was Jose Fernandez. He was selected in the UDL draft exactly one month before his tragic death. Rest in peace, Jose.

# 19. Giancarlo Stanton - Riptide

Since start of 2017: .274/.361/.565, 229 runs, 98 home runs, 239 RBI, 7 stolen bases The MVP season of 2017 with 59 bombs made this pick look pretty good. You be the judge on my own pick.

# 20. Starling Marte

Since start of 2017: .280/.329/.453, 195 runs, 44 home runs, 162 RBI, 67 stolen bases A PED suspension in 2017 wasn't great. He still has the most stolen bases in this first round except for falling one bag behind Mookie.
