[Mr. Pickles]

9.09 Jonathan Papelbon RP

Really wanted to take him, but couldn't justify it with Kimbrel in the bag. Nice grab.

Says one of the only other two owners to reach for an RP so far.

None of the RP picks thus far have been reaches. I could explain why, but I'll be glad to let you keep thinking that until its over.

Please, mrharrier, enlighten us.

9.09 Jonathan Papelbon RP

Let's do this.9.10 Rafael Soriano, WAS

still too early

I wouldn't expect anything else from someone 20 picks away at the start of an epic run.

 

[General Malaise]

9.07 - Sal Perez - C - KC

Good pick

 

[General Malaise]

9.07 - Sal Perez - C - KC

I like him a lot and was hoping to get him next turn. But there's more catcher depth than I've seen in a long time and hardly anyone takes two, so I can wait a long, long time now.eta: if that's ok with GM

We can punt like Tat in a football store.

I won the SV category in this league last year by a lot, in spite of getting a total of 1 SV from the first two RP we drafted (Wilson & Farnsworth). Of course, those crap closers didn't do much for ERA and WHIP.

You know who was second?

I had 40 more saves than the guy in 3rd. You destroyed that category last year.

[Mr. Pickles]

I was looking through the Twitter feed from a certain yet undrafted starting pitcher, and nearly every tweet was a retweet of people begging him for publicity. As if Twitter weren't insufferable enough.

Both rank an A in internet persona, but D- in human interaction and empathy.Different people in teh flesh. I was expecting to hate Pickles, but he's like the nicest guy ever. Even let me share his sun block. And Tre turns into happy fun ball with about 6 drinks inside him. I revise your grades to B- in internet persona, yet C+ in human interaction and empathy.

Even after I stepped on and killed 3 of his free range hens, he still offered to make me breakfast before going to the harrrrrrrrrrport.
