Very good value at this point in the draft, IMO. I was all set to snatch him up if he made it back to me...

I have no idea, just wanted a setup man...

 

[Eephus]

I can't tell you how disappointed I was when I saw a picture of Freeman. In my mind's eye, I was picturing a guy who looked like Eddie Murray

[Spartans Rule]

Drew Storen is for now, although he's having a rough spring and Clippard would likely be next in line.In this format you're probably better off with Clippard not closing because he'll get more IP. He had 91 last year as a setup guy.

15.15 (351): OF DeJesus, David

 

[RnR]

15.15 (351): OF DeJesus, David

Nice pick, in this format he should be pretty decent.

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

Kila Ka'aihue, 1B

This draft is still very interesting. I am seeing more players taken that I wanted the last round or so than I did in the early rounds.

NV emailed

[boubucarow]

15.19 Sean Marshall, P

That curveball is for real. I expect a strong repeat in the bullpen and need a lefty back there.

[Spartans Rule]

15.20 Yuniesky Betancourt, terrible SS

He's better than nothing. By a very small margin.

 

[Bogart]

15.18 - Bogart - Sean Rodriguez - 2B/OF

Best value I see left on the board. My fourth OF and backups one of my shakier IF spots.

And a Cubs fan. But I am telling you, it would stun me if he didn't anchor that bullpen once again.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Lineup:

1. RF Logan Morrison

2. 2B Dustin Pedroia

3. 1B Justin Morneau

4. LF Luke Scott

5. CA Mike Napoli

6. CF Adam Jones

7. 3B David Freese

8. SS Yuniesky Betancourt

Pitching:

SP Josh Johnson

SP Max Scherzer

SP Madison Bumgarner

SP James McDonald

I like my pitching a lot. The lineup, not so much.

[Spartans Rule]

Skip my next pick.

 

[RnR]

15.21- Peter Bourjos (OF)

Range, baby!

Looking for more of that A/A+ defense with the 98 speed. Between Manny and Berkman, he'll need it.

Theriot is playing SS this year, FYI.

 

[oso diablo]

didn't Hoos say to put him on autoskip for rest of the draft?

I believe so. That puts TU OTC until XX:08, and he's in the thread.
