My inside sources have Skaggs winning the battle for the Angels' fifth starter position. His main competition isn't exactly making a statement so far in spring training (except for perhaps "I suck!" and "I'm way worse than this hot up-and-coming prospect Skaggsy!")....in AAA. :rimshot:27.08 - Tyler Skaggs - SP (LAA)
I'm enthused by reports that Skaggs' velocity is back up in the mid-90's. I think he can approach 9.0 K/9 if he can maintain his fastball velocity.
Astros have Hoes in different area codes.The shtick is just too good to pass up this late...

The ButterCos Effect™I can't believe how many Astros have been drafted.
Texted him. He's about to time out I think.Chem X just posted in the newZilla auction thread, but no draft pick here.
He did say "skip me, counting my money" this morning after he was caught up from his prior skipped picks. I'm assuming that counts as consent to skip.
Maybe we should shoot him a text?
Try again. That dude was just drafted 5 picks ago by shuke.General Malaise said:28.02 GM - Jonathan Schoop - MI - Baltimore Prospect

You got some nice cheap power relatively late (Alvarez, Rosario, Gattis, Howard, Dominguez), but the question is will it be enough? My projections still have your starting lineup with the lowest HR, RBI, and run totals in the league to go along with the lowest OBP. It will be a victory if your team doesn't end up with 1s in 3-4 of the 5 offensive categories.OF Josh Hamilton Leonys Martin Angel Pagan Rajai Davis Cameron Maybin Darin Ruf Evan GattisUTIL CIFM.

Haha. I applaud the ballsiness of your grand experiment nonetheless. Plenty of season left to show the doubters wrong.Your projections are terrible then.You got some nice cheap power relatively late (Alvarez, Rosario, Gattis, Howard, Dominguez), but the question is will it be enough?

You've gotta throw out some names. We're not filling in your roster for you.I owe 2 picks and will be back in meetings again all day tomorrow. Just autoskip me and I'll be sure to make up any remaining picks tomorrow evening. Sorry gang. At this point I don't even have a list to use. If someone wants to fill in my picks, I'm happy filling out with whatever remaining rps are left from whatever cheat sheet.
