What's up with everybody's screwed up number/blank answers?

Baseball drafts are such a crapshoot anyway and I've paid less attention than ever since the Rockies finally don't have a high pick to waste (I hope Lance Lynn is there at 25), but I'll give it a shot. 

Lots of funny/fake sounding names in the lot.  Shooter Hunt? lulz.
