Carl "Can't Touch This" Crawford

[suns]

Divinity is up.

[italstallianion]

Can we put people at different positions? I'm mostly referring to OF's.

[yrtb]

Yes, but when we're grading the outfield I and hopefully other people will factor it in

I would think so but it would impact your defense negatively if you moved a LF like Bay to CF.

[yrtb]

Moving a CF to a corner infield or a RF to a LF improves your defense, but a left fielder, with the exceptions of maybe Crawford and Gardner should not play another defense spot

[RobiForMVP]

Adrian Beltre and Arthur Rhodes

Arthur Rhodes in the 2nd round?? :lol:

[WhiskeyBreath]

Beltre was a laughable pick as well.

[italstallianion]

Let's wait until the end of the draft before we start ripping on people. Unless it's Suns.

Joe Mauer is a good pick.

[Jasonbay44]

I don't know, I'm one of biggest Beltre supporters here and I don't think he is a top 10 player in MLB, both picks were terrible.

[italstallianion]

Joe Mauer is a good pick.

 

 

 

Joe Mauer is a good pick. I was speaking preemptively because you'll inevitably do something stupid later. Besides, we all rip on you around here. Most of it is in good nature, but we should at least wait until later before we crucify someone on the draft.

[italstallianion]

Suns, you can make your selection at 1:43 AM, or you can wait until the morning. Divinity might miss his pick again.

[suns]

Can we skip over his pick now? I doubt he'll be on tonight.

[italstallianion]

I don't know, we almost skipped over his pick in the first round (I picked after him, so I let him pick A-rod so I didn't have to)

 

Skipping picks isn't a huge deal in later rounds since everyone is looking for different players and it's much less likely that the next person would take the person that the other person would originally take. In the first few rounds, it's less of a draft about need and more about who's available, so even though it isn't guaranteed that you'd take the person that Divinity would want, I think we should at least give him until the morning to make his pick. If he doesn't make his pick in the morning, then go for it. And we'd just have to hope that Divinity makes his pick before more people jump ahead of him.

[Jasonbay44]

I don't think so, but I'll definitely be up late tonight and if you wanted you could private message me whoever you want to pick just in case Divinity doesn't make his pick tonight, so I could post who you want. I've done numerous redrafts on other sites and people do this a lot so they don't risk getting skipped overnight and its not like I could steal your pick since I pick after you.

 

Edit: Divinity is online right now so it shouldn't matter.

[Divinity]

Just got home, I select CC Sabathia

[suns]

Ubaldo Jiminez.

[yrtb]

Ubaldo Jiminez.

[italstallianion]

Robi's up again.

[RobiForMVP]

Chris Carpenter

[italstallianion]

Suns is up again, I bet he'll make his pick in the morning. Divinity and myself should start getting ready.

[italstallianion]

You're up Suns, followed by Divinity.
