[Spartans Rule]

Please let me know if these guys are taken... Mark McGuire George bellBall park... FenwayOk big Mac at denway take two. Plus I hear bell makes a great second baseman. Seriously. That's a good amount of pop considering I went pitcher pitcher in the first. Obp isn't so great but #### walks, I need to get the ball in play and runners home.

They're both available. Two .600 sluggers at the 3/4 turn... I think I like your strategy better than mine.

4.2 SP Danny Cox

Didn't think I'd be taking two SP here, but Knepper and Cox were the last two in a tier IMO.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

4.03 - Hubie Brooks, SS

This guy is not one of my all time faves, but his numbers are too good for me to leave out there anymore.

He'll hit #2 for 3/5s of the year.

Raines

Brooks

Mattingly

Barfield

Raines

Brooks

Mattingly

Barfield

Brooks was the guy I was agonizing over between he and bell. As stupid as his value at SS is, I needed the extra 300 abs to be a core of my lineup.

 

[Koya]

4.5 Kraft - Will Clark, 1B

Another great value. Will be interesting to see the different strategies turn out.

 

[Eephus]

Kirk McCaskill SP

 

[MrPhoenix]

I really had hoped some of the hitters that had been taken since my Viola pick would be around. Clark officially shattered my cheetsheet.

Pick coming soon.

[Eephus]

the second half of this draft is not going to be pretty

4.09 Robin Yount, 1B/OF

 

[MrPhoenix]

the second half of this draft is not going to be pretty

A part of me is dreading it, but another part of me is looking forward to it since it'll add a huge wrinkle of strategy that we haven't seen in a while.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

I really want to get my 2 picks out of the way so I can go back to working...

 

[MrPhoenix]

Send a predraft to Sparty. I won't be around much for the next couple hours.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

OK, I totally found 2 guys I want now. I have no doubt they will be taken before my turn comes up.

 

[MrPhoenix]

PMs sent to Bogart and Greco.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

How long is the clock?

 

[Spartans Rule]

How long is the clock?

2 hours. They time out at xx:08.I'm really not in favor of skipping people this early in the draft, but there's 2 of them, PMs have been sent, and the clock is generous.

 

[Spartans Rule]

Also, RnR needs to be e-mailed to pick during work hours. Someone should probably do that. I would, but I likely won't be at the computer when he responds.

I will wait if you want me to since Bogart said he cant got on WIS form work.

 

[MrPhoenix]

PM'ed RnR. Don't know his email.

 

[Bogart]

Pm box=empty.

Crap that I can't get to WIS. I will be able to pick tonight if Greco can't get in soon.

If you want to skip, I understand. No hard feelings either way.

I'd propose dropping it to one hour beginning tomorrow (or Monday).It's pretty rare for people to show up during their second hour and the "talent" has been dissipated enough to reduce the impact of a skip.

Sounds good. We'll go 1 hour tomorrow.

plateau?

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Wow. Both of them made it back. I am very happy now. Basically, I am going BPA on the hitting side.

4.12 Ozzie Smith SS

.392 OBP and good defense at short works for me.

5.01 Kevin Seitzer 3B

Not a lot of power out of 3rd (15 HR), but the D is nice and the rest of the offensive numbers look good.
