Done.

 

 

Were you both planning on getting Holland?

 

Yes. But Kilo apparently would have taken him, so no harm. You're lucky...

[castigs850]

i cant believe putz was still available, im in such disbelief i cant help but think i missed his name on the list... if he was taken could someone get back to me asap so i can pick again before i go to bed

[Cocos Disciples]

He wasn't taken. Solid pick, I was looking at him too.

[Keeper]

I've got like 3 or 4 guys in mind for my next pick, but I have no idea who I should take. Hmm...

Try to back up a weak position.

[castigs850]

then who should i pick?

[Dipre]

then who should i pick?

 

*Hint*

 

Look at the least developed area of your team and address it.

[Keeper]

Try to back up a weak position.

 

Sound advice. I guess I'm just torn on what I need more right now. Utility man, lefty specialist, can't-miss prospect, speed on the basepaths... so many choices.

[Cocos Disciples]

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, CB's pick expires at 5:34, right?

[TheKilo]

Yes, 5:34 PM EST.

[castigs850]

ahhhh my safe haven, the picks thread, no one can bring me down while im here. i love it sooo much

[Dojji]

You suck, Castigs.

 

Sorry, I had to.

[castigs850]

no you didnt, completely uncalled for

[Cocos Disciples]

Odds that Jacko takes Mariano Rivera?

[Dojji]

It might even be a decent move if you have a few relief prospects who could take over as closer. I've learned over the last few seasons not to celebrate Mariano's death prematurely. Rivera should be good for at least 1 year after this, and he's a bit of a freak of nature so who knows how long he can last..

[Dipre]

Not too crazy about the Feliciano pick, Keeper.

[Keeper]

Feliciano is a pretty good reliever. Has some control problems occasionally, but makes up for it with a fairly high K per 9. One of the better lefties left on the board. His age (32) may be a concern, though. You never know how long these guys are gonna last.

[Keeper]

Why?

[Dipre]

Why?

 

Control problems and age.

 

You might have been better off going with a relatively unknown, younger option.

 

I could name a couple off the top of my dome.

 

But i won't.

[Keeper]

You might be right. I've got another southpaw in mind, though.

[Dipre]

You might be right. I've got another southpaw in mind' date=' though.[/quote']

 

Odds are, we've got the same one.

 

So i suggest you take him with your next pick.

[TheKilo]

Check the stats, Calero is an incredibly consistent reliever who strikes out over a better an inning and puts up a 2.6 K/BB ratio.

[Cocos Disciples]

I was looking at a number of guys for this pick, but Abreu stood out for his consistency and his good OBP, which I need.

[TheKilo]

Crap, Abreu would have been the perfect fit for my bench COF.

 

Back to the drawing board...

[Keeper]

Now, all we need is for Jacko to throw away two more picks and we're back in business.

[Dipre]

Now' date=' all we need is for Jacko to throw away two more picks and we're back in business.[/quote']

 

Then we'll be back in business shortly.

[Cocos Disciples]

I'm about to do a round by round analysis (best and worst pick). Get your bribes in shortly.

Good idea.

 

I might do the same once you're done.
