Stuck in an Austin office with shaking access today, before driving back home tonight.

Norwood has the wheel.

(Yes Norwood, I like that stadium.)

5.08- C **** Dietz, 1970

Only Eephus knows about this guy, he was a Giant in 1970.

I feel dirty for this pick. Outside of 1970, his career was garbage.

I had Dietz in Sim #2. He was pretty mediocre against all-time pitching .233/.336/.340 in 400+ PAs. The sim has changed a lot since then and the pitching won't be nearly as strong this go around.

I had him once too and he underperformed IIRC

Can somebody please PM Halos?

 

[MrPhoenix]

WE'RE STREAKING!

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Not feeling too bad about my team after 5 rounds. I have 3 hitters (SS, OF, OF) with an OBP of .448 and defenses of B/A, B/A, C+/A+ respectively.

Pitching-wise I have 691 innings of 0.94 WHIP and a HR/9 of 0.05.

I think this is the most different format we have ever had and I really like it.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Doesn't look like you are gonna get to me anytime soon but I'l be out for the rest of the day. Couple of folks have my phone # so just text me if it gets to me. I'll have my list with me.

"Hi guys, my team is awesome and this format is awesome. I'm going to go back to my cave here in the Pakistan/Afghanistan border where I only get internet access for 39 minutes a day, so I can't even do any research and, oh, I don't know, SEND A PREDRAFT when I know I'm not going to be available when you guys are in the morning! See you guys at about this time tomorrow!"

I think my strategy is going to be quite simple. Play in a small park and draft big sluggers and pitchers with good HR/9 numbers. Last time I concentrated on good OBP or WHIP and ended up with a pretty average team, so lets try the opposite approach.

[Eephus]

Doug B said to put him on autoskip today, but he's been in the thread since then

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

I'm off today for Veterans Day, so I won't be near a computer very much. Auto-skip Doug B's picks if I'm not in the thread.

I think it is safe to skip him. He has not been here in a couple of hours. Plus TU isn't around so he has a little time to check in.

 

[Eephus]

TU and Doug B are on concurrent clock through xx03
