TOMMY MADDOX QB

(Nick Maddox, P)

Bill Walker, SP

6th SP, insurance in case one is a #### show. He's a lefty so he will probably stay in my starting 5, odd man out will probably move into long role.

 

[the moops]

But there will definitely be some sniping (and mooping about it) further down the draft order.

 

[jfranco77]

HJKLMOPTW - all letters closed

 

[jfranco77]

Would have been fun if we played this like Cricket (darts) - only letters that are closed can be picked in the WC round.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

I own at cricket.

 

[Super Nintendo Chalmers]

For SoCal:

23.17 Dutch Zwilling, OF

For SoCal when he comes in. You are probably looking at his Federal League years. Might want to repick

 

[Koya]

HJKLMOPTW - all letters closed

Wow, still more open than I thought. Was torn between Meredith and Maddox - Meredith is better pound for pound, but 0 HRs and the ability to start (or go an extra inning, and if somehow I can make the damn playoffs start a key 7th game of a series) put it over for Maddox. Also let me take my "O"I didnt draft any real extra SPs, as if one falters I have a few RPs that can start - Schupp, O'Neill and now Maddox.FWIW, having both R and M with 5 meaningful rounds to go was huge imo.

Dude was awesome at Kansas State before he blew out his knee.

He and Beasley must have been quite a pair on campus

[Eephus]

Are we going to keep the half hour clock for the wild card round?

 

[RnR]

How Larry is still awarded his full clock is beyond me. Dude hasn't picked within it once.

 

[jfranco77]

Are we going to keep the half hour clock for the wild card round?

Yes we should.

There will be whining when people are skipped

 

[Bogart]

I can't find an "A" player that I like. Neither in talent or shtick.

Repack I in a little while...

 

[Doug B]

24.01 - Roberto Clemente (OF)

The sim engine has been tweaked many times since our early leegs, and normalization probably helps Clemente a lot more now than it did then. But in the past, this dude couldn't hit a tee-ball in all-timers. God-awful.

WIS doesn't respect his fielding either

They ought to just forget the hard stats and manually assign fielding rankings for a select group of guys. Way too many defensive greats with mediocre fielding grades.

Jim Brewer, RP

Need another lefty in the bully, excellent sim history

 

[Koya]

Terry Shumpert, 2B, 3B, OF, Crappy SS

Was between he, another player that has similarities and a RH outfielder that I really like. With an all lefty OF tough to pass on him, but Shump can play the OF against tough lefties, is a doubles MACHINE in a doubles stadium and 14-0 for steals means one more trouble spot against meh catching arms.

MMMM COOKIES.

Surprisingly only one other player has to take a Z. Looks like I will get a contributor! (as the guy who goes out to buy KFC and Beer for the Pen)

That guy is mine. You get the guy who collects and washes the team jock straps.

REDRAFT!!!Seriously. I was working off the initial list and 22 Z's were taking. Only fair thing to do is start over. Need to probably re-roll the dice, too. SHENANIGANS!!!

 

[Bogart]

Draft Center Violation(s): You are currently over the salary cap. You must replace one or more players to lower your payroll.

I have already locked in my WC and A picks. Can I be excused from the table?

 

[Eephus]

This wasn't how I thought the wild card round would play out
