Midseason Redraft League Pick Thread (jbay44 on the clock

[yrtb]

Based on someone who didn't play fantasy baseball, Beltre and Boesch make sense, I don't really get the others

 

And I didn't need a first baseman, I already have Joey Votto

[Divinity]

Matt Kemp

[suns]

Ital up.

[italstallianion]

Good pick Divinity, I was thinking about him, but I wanted to save him because I thought he would drift for a few more rounds.

 

Anyway, I'll go with Torii Hunter.

 

 

Yrtb is up.

[italstallianion]

Ytrb isn't online, but he messaged me a little while ago saying that Mat Latos would be his ideal pick. I think we should go with that.

 

That would mean that WhiskeyBreath is up.

[suns]

Sooo lets say I draft a SP, could I put him in long relief?

[italstallianion]

I'd imagine so, although it would be better to use someone who's numbers are reflected by that role. For example, who knows if Ubaldo Jimenez's numbers would be the same if he were a long reliever? Obviously, you wouldn't use him for that role, but a starter's numbers aren't necessarily transferrable to a relief role. And the reverse is true as well.

 

Now, if the person you're thinking about has had experience at both, then he'll probably be judged with his experience as a reliever.

 

That's just my opinion. I think that ytrb would have a better answer though.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Mariano Rivera

[italstallianion]

Flynnatic is up, and to think that we've made 20 picks today. (Thus far)

[Jasonbay44]

Flynnatic messaged me on another site and said he would like Jason Heyward, he cant get on this site because he is on PSP or something, he'll confirm this tomorrow.

[italstallianion]

That would put Bsox up. In any event, I think we've seen the last picks until tomorrow morning.

Jon Papelbon

 

And

 

Adam Dunn

[italstallianion]

In all fairness, Youker picks twice before you, so you should hope he doesn't pick him (Dunn). Also, you don't need to tell anyone where you're positioning your picks. There is a midseason draft clubhouse (in the contest/prizes section) where you post that information. You can put anybody in any position that you want, however, it will effect the defense aspect of your team, which will influence your team's rating. For example, putting a player out of position will hurt the defense, unless it's something like moving a CF to LF/RF, or moving a SS/2B to 1B/3B.

 

 

 

Edit: Now Youker is officially on the clock (twice)

I knew there was one but i think that i found someone else ill put in Lf. I have my next two picks set up so he could take dunn but i would still be ready.

[italstallianion]

Don't worry about it, I doubt that Youker would take Dunn with either of his next two picks (I think that Dunn is a fine pick, I just don't think that Youker would go that route)

 

I wanted to bring up the defense thing because you weren't here at the beginning of the draft, so I don't want you to be behind the other teams for something that was out of your control. We'll count the Adam Dunn pick after Youker makes his pick, unless of course, Youker chooses Dunn as one of the picks, and you'll have to go to your backup.

[Youker20]

RA Dickey and Miguel Cabrera

 

why is Cabrera left?? LOL

Okay thanks. Where was this originally set up. is there a post for that I can read to get caught up to speed.

[bsox0407]

RA Dickey and Miguel Cabrera

Cabrera is not left. Divinity had him in an earlier round. Round three pick four to be exact.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Cabrera has been gone since round 3.

[Youker20]

[bsox0407]

thank you my english friend.,

[Youker20]

hes hitting .289, so im not sure if you guys took him yet

[italstallianion]

He's still available, and for the record, on the first page, Yrtb has a reasonably up to date recap of the draft, pick by pick. It's the very first post in the thread.

He's obviously not serious with his picks.
