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

Bob Boone, C

Me likey this value right here. 7-time Gold Glove winner, 4-time all-star, and was a terrific catcher behind the plate. From all indications, called an outstanding game and was very easy for his pitchers to work with.

 
Larry Boy picked John Clarkson?:pathetic:
he's my #5/6 starter and #4/5 reliever...the problem with old-time pitchers is if you start them every day, 'cuz you could...as long as you don't abuse the fact that you have one of them, no big deal should be made about it...

He also comes up with 51 WinShares/162.
:eek: That is a lot, yes? Im not all up to speed on win share specifics.

Let's just say that, by my numbers (and they may be slightly off due to some questionable games played data), he's tied for 1st ALL-TIME with Babe Ruth.

only because he would have played 80 of those 160 games...If he only plays in 1/4 of those games, he gets 1/4 the win shares, therefore he'll get about 12.5 win shares...If I start him 30 times, he'll get 3/8 of the win shares, so about 18 win shares...not outrageous, his winshares are increased due to innings pitched, not quality of pitching...If I don't play him for 500 innings, he is a good pitcher, but doesn't have the same value, due to not pitching him the innings...

That isn't necessarily how it works. Just because you start him a certain number of times doesn't mean he gets that many Win Shares. He may get lit up like a Christ-X tree.

not with a 150 adjusted ERA his 3rd best year he won't...all I'm saying, though, is that he won't get 50 win shares because he won't pitch 500 innings... if he were played like modern pitchers are played he wouldn't have gotten 50 win shares, just like he wouldn't have had a record of like 55-30 or whatever...
 
I was choosing between Bancroft and another MI....good pick! I'll take him. I need one more pitcher in case I go back in the hole.....
Before that happens, what the hell did you do? PM is fine if need be.
Someone had posted a thread on how to make the best steak and he started the thread out with, "I can't believe that some of you are morons when it comes to cooking steaks", or something like that. Anywho, Joe deleted the post and when said poster asked for clarification in a another thread, Joe replied, "When you start a thread calling people morons, I'll delete it every time. That won't fly here guy...."Then Zartan posted: "####ing PM's down?" Joe put a laughing emoticon for that post. That's when I got involved and asked: "You have a problem when certain posters use the word "moron", but you laugh when certain posters say "####ing"?

Joe replied to me and said, "You're right, I should be more careful. I fixed it for you."

I replied, "No need to be condescending, just pointing out the hypocrisy." <<----this was probably the magic sentence

Then I responded in that thread to a few other people prefacing a word in each sentence with "####ing" ("That's ####ing sweet!" and "That'd be ####ing crazy!"). Apparently, the power that is had enough.

Pretty thin-skinned. Any specifics on how long Nipsey is supposed to sit?

so, how long until Nipsey's alias gets banned???

I mean, the mods aren't that dumb...

right?
The key is the alias says that this could be Nipsey. It may be, or it may not be. They can't prove a thing.
True. You could just be some random guy looking for some good football talk. Someone like, say, Adrian Zmed.

Exactly. Had the alias said, "This is Nipsey", well then I'd have been asking for trouble.

Like him or not, Nipsey is too valuable to this board to ban permanently.I'm sure Joe & Co. expected him to come right back with an alias. It's just a power flaunting thing.

Are you going to ask to see his hall pass or what?

They're not bored enough to thumb through our 200 page draft.
