Midseason Redraft League Pick Thread (jbay44 on the clock

[bsox0407]

I think that Strasburg would have been picked a while ago if that was established earlier.

 

he was gonna be in my next round picks.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Colby Rasmus

[WhiskeyBreath]

Thanks for making the game thread tonight.

 

haha sorry. Got home from work a lot later than expected.

[bsox0407]

Flynn is up then me.

[Flynnatic10]

whiskey, i WANT rasmus. ill trade you heyward.

 

in other news, i pick Martin Prado.

[italstallianion]

Bsox is up. He sent me potential picks a while ago, but he's mentioned something about potentially changing them, so I'm not going to post them yet. However, if it gets late at night and he hasn't come back on, I'll post the messaged pick, since it would be Youker that's next anyway.

Can't do that. I would be left without a center fielder.

[Flynnatic10]

Can't do that. I would be left without a center fielder.

 

correct me here yrtb, i think you can move the OF's around the OF.

[bsox0407]

Carlos Lee.

[italstallianion]

correct me here yrtb' date=' i think you can move the OF's around the OF.[/quote']

 

 

 

 

You can, but it has a negative effect on the defense. For example, you can have an OF of Ryan Braun, Manny Ramirez, and Vlad Guerrero, which would be a great hitting OF, but a very poor defensive OF. (No offense to Braun).

 

So it's up to the relative priorities of the drafter. Do you go with all offense, or do you balance defense?

[italstallianion]

And now Youker is up to enlighten us with his picks. Bsox, if you aren't on when Youker picks do you want the same pick that you messaged me earlier?

[bsox0407]

Yeah but i have a feeling ill be up later than you. lol. FML and f*** history.

[yrtb]

correct me here yrtb' date=' i think you can move the OF's around the OF.[/quote']

 

You can, but for the sake of your defense, don't move a LF to CF unless his name is Carl Crawford

[italstallianion]

Flynnatic, I might be able to work out a trade with you, since I have Carl Crawford and Torii Hunter.

[bsox0407]

Btw Italstallianion my second pick is still the same pick.

[bsox0407]

If Youker misses his first pick by 8 hours does that mean i have to wait another 8 for his second pick to clear

[italstallianion]

Normally, I think you would have to wait, but since Youker's picks are back to back, then I think you'd be fine. Then again, this is just my opinion, as ytrb can correct me if that isn't the case. I think this only works with the people on the end of the rounds.

[bsox0407]

I doubt Youker gets on for tonight. 4 more hours till i get my pick.

[italstallianion]

I think you'll be fine for your pick. I wouldn't worry.

[bsox0407]

I know i am counting down cause ill still be up working on this damn paper by the time my pick comes up.

[Flynnatic10]

youker is skipped, bosox is up.

[italstallianion]

He wanted John Lackey. I think you're up Flynnatic.

[Flynnatic10]

i take Curtis Granderson.

[italstallianion]

WhiskeyBreath is now up.

[Youker20]

Josh willingham and jamie garcia

[italstallianion]

It's still WhiskeyBreath's turn, and RobiforMVP has 2 makeup picks.

[bsox0407]

This has really slowed down.

[italstallianion]

I know. At one point we were doing 1-2 rounds per day. On the bright side, with all of the skipped picks I don't have to worry as much about people taking who I'm looking for. Then again, that's become much less of an issue in the later rounds as the draft has opened up to the hundreds of mediocre players remaining.

[italstallianion]

On another note, Ytrb can make his pick at around 8 pm.

[bsox0407]

One a person is skipped, until they make up their picks they will continue to be skipped.

 

i just found this so i think it would be okay that when robi can up just to skip him until he makes up his other picks.
