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

[Politician Spock]

But I'm not breaking any rules, I'm not going to mention his Negro League career, I pro'lly won't mention any stats... I'll just say "Satchel Paige"...

I'm not convinced that will be enough. But I don't have a problem with you giving it a try.

I think he and Nipsey are overestimating it as well. 15 guys in here who know baseball took 270 players before him. Maybe we let him slide a few rounds too long given that his name does have some clout, but people who know baseball know that Satchel Paige didn't accomplish anything in MLB other than pitch in his 40's. Those would equate Paige to Walter Johnson in the vote are also the ones equating Fruit Loops to Lucky Charms. Perhaps that is 90% of the FFA, but I think that is an overestimation.

your forgetting that Paige is my #5 starter at best... well, maybe #4 lol, not sure if I'd put him over Gooden or not...

Love that logic...he's either the second best pitcher ever and thus should be your #1 starter or he's a reliever.There is no logic in comparing him to Gooden

Nice getting a guy (in round 16!) who you can put up against Walter Johnson and argue that your guy was better.

Not to disrespect Paige, but I can draft Pee Wee Herman and argue that he was better than Walter Johnson.Just the fact that you can make an argument is worthless. Anyone can argue anything. The key is to actually convince other people that you are correct.

You really think that Paige and Pee Wee Herman were on the same level pitching-wise?

Not my point.

What is your point? I'm talking about one of the greatest pitchers of all-time here. He was taken in a time of the draft when Jerry Koosman, Jimmy key, Tim Wakefield were taken. I'm saying you can't argue that those guys were as good as say Walter Johnson (the number one overall pick in this thing). You can however make a case that Paige was. That's why I say he was the SOD. That's my point.

no, he can't argue that.all he can argue is what Paige did in his MLB career, which was nowhere near what The Big Train did.

and do you really think I plan on pounding stats with Paige??I'm going to go "it's Satchel Paige, the greatest pitcher ever... PERIOD!!!"

no, you're not, unless you plan to argue that his 5-year MLB career is the greatest ever.to mention his outside-MLB career in a write-up is cause for DQ.,Snot ####ing around..we all spent too much time on this.

my point is I know he isn't going to be looked upon well by some people, so if I keep him low in the rotation, it won't look as horrible to those people...He will likely be 4... but 3 or 5 is not out of the question...

As far as the Page thing goes, it may affect the FFA vote but I really don't think it will have a significant affect, a couple here and there at most will swing there vote based on 1 player on a 25 man roster. I think it's a minimal issue.

You're obviously planning on using Paige's Negro League career in explaining why he's on your roster. You wouldn't be able to use the "greatest ever" line otherwise.

Except Gooden had only three good years and Satchel is 90 years old.We are not playing a guys best season, we are talking how good that guy is over his MLB career. Now, you can argue if Koufax was around long enough, or ralph kiner... but 3 years does NOT equate to a great all time ball player.Stick to your top three - Glavine won a couple CYAs and while never completely dominant, was a very good pitcher for a while and did some great things in his career. After that, your rotation tales off. That still makes it one of the better rotations IMO, but that is giving Gooden a bit more credit than he should (loved him back in those couple glory years) and giving Satchel some credit though he is a marginal first arm out of the bullpen regardless.

What I want to know is...

If Larry honestly thought he could get away with passing off Paige as the best ever without violating draft rules, why didn't he take him sooner?

If this pick came in the 5th round it might be naive. In the 17th round its bush league.

At times silence can speak volumesI'm not a big fan of piling on, there have been several picks made that I thought were maybe early but I really don't get much out of shooting down someone's picks. I prefer to let the vote/sim etc play out and see. I'd rather comment on picks I consider strong and are similar to the way I'm approaching this.Do I think Wakefield was a good pick? No, but who am I to say the majority will agree with me.

FWIW, I don't think Larry's team is going to do as badly as everyone thinks. Sure, there were a couple of reaches but his team will probably be competitive.That said, I still only have rosters from about half of the original 16 teams.Send to nymets86@gmail.com please.

That said, I still only have rosters from about half of the original 16 teams.Send to nymets86@gmail.com please.

I'll have mine to you before long.It's cool to send incomplete rosters? I still have seven more guys to pick.

Yep, I'm entering them as you go.

A 4 hour limit during biz hours seems more than reasonable. To leave a list even more reasonable. If you are within 5 or 6 people, even after biz hours you should have a 3-4 person list. IF all those players are taken, we stop, no biggie. But to get 4 picks a day aint good. Anyone agree with me on the limits, I do not want something that is unfair or wont work for some people.

Any chance for those of us with some info to get a little private feedback on our teams? Or is this somehow an unfair advantage. Id be curious to know, especially since weve slowed pace here.

after this round, we're going four hours. if we don't get this done, the wait will just get worse.

We are now into the third week of this draft. If it takes much longer I am going to have to drop out because my wife is due to give birth Feb 3rd. If you don't see me logged on for a few days in a row, I'm out.

Look at the bright side ...Pickles isn't missing anything.

 

[oso diablo]

by the way, since somebody asked a few pages back, i have Harrier's top 5 pitchers a shade better than LB44's top 5 pitchers (not including Satchel).by my reckoning, Koya has the best team overall, and it's not really that close. I have UCONN in 16th.

 

[Doug B]

I'm cool with the four-hour limit as well.Business hours only, or around the clock?

Hey guys, sorry it's so late Just woke up. Rough night of writing and then drinking last night--academic life (even for just a bit of grad school) isn't worth it; don't ever leave work.
