I'm too wasted now to do it, but there's no reason not to start the league. One of us, godforbid me, will start the league tomorrow either way, but would be far better to have the commish do so.

Seriously, let's not stand on ceremony here, it's the freakin' weekend so let the minions sim live, or we will just have to start the league ourselves as has happened in seasons past.

[Doctor Detroit]

One of the reasons I hate my draft:

You could make the argument that my 21st round pick (Sheckard) could start over my 1st (Kauff) and 4th (Kelley) rounders. In fact, he may at least platoon with Kelley.

I've had all three, Kelley is going to probably be the best of those. Sheckard was less than impressive for me in the pre Ruth era draft we did. That was probably three sim engine changes ago though.

I think I'm all caught up. I picked some first baseman from the 30s. Dale Stephenson or something.

 

[RnR]

I have you as caught up, Frosty.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Does anyone know what the Champ is doing with **** Allen? Is he going to move him to 1B? He hasn't mentioned it, so I ask.

 

[RnR]

Here's a fun project for the weekend to keep The Champ occupied: We need 12 for Live Leeg, 12 for Dead Leeg. Figure it out. Franco's harrrrankings will seed them for divisional dispersion. I expect a paradigm shift in attitude.

Live for me please. I usually play a good number.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

I'm so drunk I can barely see. In fact I'm on my iPhone with one eye closed. I'll take the greatest homerun hitter in the modern era.

Roger Maris OF 1960s

Sadly, unless I can swing a deal for a 3B, that's where Allen will play as the draft worked out that way.

Will get to my pick in a bit.

Brady and I were trying to work a deal last night, but not easy with the decades restrictions.

what are u looking to move?

 

[Pumpnick]

count me in for the simlive league

 

[avoiding injuries]

count me in for the simlive league

Me too

 

[Koya]

On the Block:

Richie Ashburn 1950's or Mike Griffin 1890's - Both leadoff type high OBP guys with a little doubles pop and good-great range

Rudy York - Mashing Catcher / Poor D Third Base or more balanced catcher for full season

Dolph Camilli 1B

Steve Evans, 1B More bat than Field but a decent Fed Bat

"Fro" - Oscar Gamble - Grabbed him more because it was just more value than anything else in that decade.

Anyone else if I get the right value back.

To continue the saga, if I can get a good 3B with decent defense, I'd move Allen to 1B. The league deserves this.

Have a 10's and 20's and the 2000 seasons left and am stuck in all day saturday meeting here.

OOF... I struck him off my list, thought he had been taken. THAT COULD HAVE BEEN MY ANSWER FOR ALLEN!

Such is life.
