El Cubano - Big Doggie. Super nice guy.

Nice pick.

Would have prefered Mathews because I liked his lefty power and defense. Perez should rake in Wrigley, though. Gonna need a lefty power bat at some point but I guess that is where the OF comes in.

LastPhoenixMarino, wait!

 

[Pumpnick]

Anyone else have a player you were planning to pick early and have just kept skipping over for one reason or another?

yes

9.4- OF Stan Musial

Why do I feel I just took the SOD?

yes

I had planned to take this guy on the 4/5 turn....still haven't.

9.4- OF Stan Musial

Why do I feel I just took the SOD?

Was very hard for me to take Mauer with him still on the board, but I think you're playing him at the wrong position.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

9.4- OF Stan Musial

Why do I feel I just took the SOD?

It's a good pick. Pretty similar to Berkman... a deep letter but you can use him at 1B or OF depending on what happens down the line. SOD might be taking it a little far.

 

[Bogart]

Skip me. I will pick tonight.

 

[Brady Marino]

9.4- OF Stan Musial

Why do I feel I just took the SOD?

Was very hard for me to take Mauer with him still on the board, but I think you're playing him at the wrong position.

For the season I was looking at, he'll at least field the balls his D+ range gets to.

His best season is 1B only, and a pretty good defensive rating at that. Kinda regret passing on it, to be honest.

Yeah, but I already have a pretty good 1B. Musial has a really good OF season that will suit my needs.

I think Joe Dimaggio was the SOD

 

[jfranco77]

I'm guessing almost everyone is going to pick a player in the first 10 rounds that ends up being a bench player. There's still a lot of talent on the board. Things are going to get interesting soon.

What?...pretty sure you're not doing this correctly

Didn't say I was one of them, but you never know

 

[Chemical X]

ibanez is a bench player for me...........calculated gamble.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Harry Krause?

 

[Chemical X]

krause taken

 

[Bogart]

9.197 - Sammy Sosa - OF

I feel like he was taken, or I am missing something? 66 HRs falling under the 8 million dollar cap.

 

[Chemical X]

TRE - tim raines, OF

Chem X - Hack Wilson, OF

 

[the moops]

Almost took both Raines and Wilson with my last picks.

 

[Greco]

sosa, ####

 

[Bogart]

sosa, ####

the first pick I have that has gotten a response, and I'm not sure if it's a good or bad one.

 

[Chemical X]

bad pick, good response

 

[Doug B]

Tony Phillips, 2B

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Looks like I'm up, will pick in a little while as I just got back home.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

OF/3B Kevin Mitchell

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Javier Vazquez, SP

 

[oso diablo]

Javier Vazquez, SP

i'm doing a shadow draft, hypothetically picking in the middle of each round. Vazquez was my 7th round pick. Roster so far:1. Pete Alexander

2. Mike Napoli

3. Dan Quisenberry

4. Jim Edmonds

5. Addie Joss

6. Jeff Zimmerman

7. Vazquez

8. Matt Kemp

 

[Koya]

GIANTS #####ES. WOO WOOOOOO!

 

[Bogart]

I always forget Jeff Zimmerman in these things. His rookie year was made for a draft like this.

 

[Bogart]

Going to be at hospital tomorrow with stepdad. If my turn pops up, Kraft knows to text me.

 

[Spartans Rule]

9.11 Jonathan Papelbon, RP

Figure I better have a good closer as neglecting letter scarcity may hurt my pen depth.

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

9.12 Traver Hoffman, RP

PM'd Shake. Skip me if I come up again today

So I guess you're a big believer in letter scarcity?
