***OFFICIAL*** FFA MLB Draft (1 Viewer)

I owe two descriptions...I'll start with the pick which seems to have disappointed a few people. I needed another outfielder and this pick fills that need. Averill was a 6 time All-Star for Cleveland. His career started late as he toiled away in semi-pro ball before Cleveland signed him as a 27 year. Upon entering the league, his talent was apparent as he went 7 straight years in the top 9 in home runs. :thumbup: He played centerfield which is a plus as I have Williams and Delahanty also out there, neither of which are capable of doing it. He was also the starting CF for the AL in the first 5 All-Star games. He also helped end Dizzy Dean's career in the 1937 All-Star game by injuring his toe on a line-drive.

 
If I am up next, just have to catch up and then make my pick. I called my friend but we were not at my turn yet, so hopefully I didnt hold things up.

SP Burleigh GrimesTo start he finished with 273 wins placing him 31st alltime. He had 5 seasons of winning 20 games iplaying from 1916-34. In 28 and 29 he finished 3rd and 4th in MVP voting so he had a couple of dominating years. For some strange reason he had a good stretch from 1918-21 and then from 28-30...he must have been on a bender for the 7 years in between.Like I said he used the spitter, but I like that. It shows the dirty side. High and tight. Don't hate the player ...hate the game. He's also clutch winning Game 7 of the 31 Series for the Cards taking a shutout into the 9th inning.Playing in Tiger Stadium, I like when baseballpages (which is down) says his best strength is keeping the ball in play. He's also durable with 14 straight years of double digit wins.
