With the exception of a few picks, its basically been a closer draft since the end of the 6th round.

There were 15-17 uncontested closers available, I think 15 went.

I got two

 

[wikkidpissah]

That closer run is ridiculous lol

you're welcome

i agree with this assessment and even the established guys have ?????

i hope leclerc can build on last year, but he’s no sure thing.  chapman and jansen get hurt, giles and osuna changed teams, diaz too.  yates is a who knows.  hand changed teams.  i wanted iglesias with davis, but hopefully leclerc is the real deal.

 

[cosjobs]

It will be really interesting where Kimbrel goes. I'm thinking Phillie is most likely

The only problem I see with Leclerc is limited save opportunities for the Rangers to be leading in the ninth inning. Even so he should get 25-30.

I think the talk out of Washington is serious. Plus,the Phillies are covered there.

I wondered why Doolittle lasted as long as he did.

But Doolittle >> Neris

Did you?

Neris?

You serious, bro?

 

[cosjobs]

Did you?

As of today, which is all I have. 

Do you think Hader gets the closer role? I think they like using him in the most critical situation. 

 

[shuke]

GM's at some college planning thing and I don't have Stryker's number.

 

[strykerpks]

Cory Knebel RP MIL

@shuke I think

 

[shuke]

Cory Knebel RP MIL

Well ####.

 

[Bogart]

Pretty sure Shuke took:

8.06 - Yoan Moncada - 2B - CWS

For my pick:

8.07 - David Dahl - OF - COL

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

For my pick:

8.07 - David Dahl - OF - COL

     

This was who I almost took instead of a second closer. I was a little wary because of his injury history. But he has such upside.

 

[Chemical X]

i hate this closer ####, but damn if i have to chase saves every day.  my least favorite thing is chasing saves, which is next to finishing last every year.

 

[Capella]

Man I made some ####ing amazing grits. Little smoked bacon and an over easy egg on top.

I totally agree wth you. Its why I took at the turn when I knew I was going to have to wait another 28 picks to fill the other slots on my team. ts really difficult to watch 28 guys go off the board and not be able to do anything about it.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

After having 1 relief pitcher go in the first 90 picks 15 of the last 21 picks have been relief pitchers! Now thats what I  call a closer run!

 

[General Malaise]

7 of the 15 drafted won't be their team's closer by the middle of August.  It's like the divorce rate in this country; holding steady at 50%....

 

[shuke]

 BUT YOU DIDN'T MAKE A PICK, DID YOU?

Man I made some ####ing amazing grits. Little smoked bacon and an over easy egg on top. 

WTF dudes?

 

[Capella]

Shuke, it’s Sunday night. And I had some grits. Simmer down. 

Jonathan Villar, truly sucks, Baltimore

I'm no baseball nerd or anything but that might be the worst pick since Joe Alexander.

Yeah you had to google it didn't you

 

[trogg78]

Jonathan Villar left Sunday's game against the Tigers in the Grapefruit League with a sore pinky.

absolutely true, which is why i look for guys entrenched in the role.  davis isn’t going anywhere with that contract and has no competition.  leclerc, not so much.  if he has a bad game or 3, i could see him done for the year.

SUN, MAR 3, 5:43 PM

Villar was removed from Sunday's game against Detroit due to soreness

Spoiler

  in his pinky finger

 

[strykerpks]

WHO CARES ABOUT HIS PINKY? HE SUCKS ### WITH A HEALTHY HAND

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Yeah. Entrenched.

8.09 3B Justin Turner/Doyers

I texted Foreskin FWIW

Joe Alexander played hoops for West Virginia. 

We know Villar sucks. He got drafted because steals is a stupid category and he’s good at that.

Oh

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Villar is a really bad pick.  I was gonna take him, but I took some other guy instead because the other guy was better IMO. /Lambskin

 

[Capella]

Oh

I know this is crazy but we are trying to draft a team that will compete in the categories we get actual points for.  

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Man I made some ####ing amazing grits. Little smoked bacon and an over easy egg on top. 

Grits are the pits

 

[strykerpks]

Oh. Well good luck with that

 

[Capella]

This is the worst thing you’ve ever said.

That's a southern thing. Corned beef and hash is equally as bad, I feel like English and Irish people who are cuisine deaf, made us this way.

I like biscuits and gravy though with a lot of passion.  Thanks Confederacy!!!!!

 

[strykerpks]

He once said Hunter Morris was going to be the next Prince Fielder. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Google search results for nutritional value of Grits...:

"NO"

 

[Doctor Detroit]

That dude is from FDAS country, so I doubt I said that. 

 

[strykerpks]

I have texts. TEXTS

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Lambskin just texted me.

He's trying to lure a young lady into his windowless cargo van.  Take care now...

Man you must have had some bad grits. Cooked with stock and milk and butter and cheese and they’re unbeatable.

I'm going to Alabama in a few weeks, I'll try them there.  I get offered grits all the time and I pass.

I may have misspoken. Sorry

Have you had shrimp and grits from a southern belle who has made it her whole life and uses bacon grease and sharp white cheddar?  If not, I highly suggest you try and reconsider your stance on grits. 

 

[strykerpks]

I like how I never texted you back after that
