Baseball Redraft League Draft and Discussion Thread

Is Flynnatic around?

[Jasonbay44]

He hasn't been online since about 6.

[SoxFanForsyth]

I haven't seen him.

 

So - do any of you guys have MLB 2K10? And if so, have you gone ahead and put Crawford and Gonzo on the team?

 

I started a season the other day, my God. It's so sick. Makes me even more excited.

I have it but haven't played in a while, I don't like playing the game with the rosters so out of date right now as there have been so many moves made in this off-season. I'm definitely buying 2k11 though and cant wait to use the Sox in it

[italstallianion]

I hope that Flynnatic logs in tonight so that I could get my picks in without having to wait until tomorrow.

[italstallianion]

Cmon Flynnatic, please log on before you go to bed.

[Jasonbay44]

If Flynnatic doesn't pick tonight is his pick after that also skipped? If it is, before I go to bed ill just send you a list since Id pick after Flynnatic is skipped again.

I feel like the corner outfielders are really similar defensively. With the obvious exception of Fenway and maybe a few other parks, I think that the corner outfield slots are pretty much the same.

For example, Petco Park: http://www.ballparktour.com/PETCO_Park.html

The LF will have to cover slightly more ground given that left-center is a little deeper than right-center, but in my opinion it's very much the same.

Citizen's Bank Park has nearly the same dimensions for LF and RF: http://www.ballparktour.com/Philadelphia.html

Therefore, in my mind it really wouldn't make any sense for someone to "adapt" to playing LF if they were typically a RF, except for cases like Fenway (where they would have to adapt anyway unless they were named Jacoby Ellsbury or Ryan Kalish).

[italstallianion]

I'd imagine that if Flynnatic was skipped, that when I made my picks he'd be skipped again. That said, it'd be well into tomorrow before Flynnatic gets skipped, and at that point it's likely that he'd make his pick anyway.

[italstallianion]

Yeah, I think that Flynnatic has until 12:52pm tomorrow to make his pick before I could skip him.

[Jasonbay44]

Thats true, even if he is skipped tonight he should have plenty of time to make his picks tomorrow morning. I miscalculated how much time he actually had.

[italstallianion]

Curse you Flynnatic...

[yankees228]

Thanks for making my pick ital.

 

While there is a concern about his health, I like what Weeks can do offensively and defensively, especially at a position where offensive talent is scarce. Weeks posted a 6.1 WAR last year, second among all MLB second basemen. That's not to say he projects as the second best second basemen going forward, but at that cost, I think it was worth it.

 

I also really liked the Upton and Bruce picks, and would have considered both of them if I hadn't already chosen a right fielder.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

I haven't seen him.

I played 2k10 last spring, and I was unpleasantly surprised to see how much worse the series had gotten since 2k7 (last one I owned). That series is a joke.

 

I'll at least look into 2k11 though. We need The Show on the 360, badly.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Too bad you'll never see it. MLB the show is exclusively for PS3. 2k is probably one of the worse games I've ever played. It only sold because of that million dollar no hitter thing.

Yeah I did it and it is pretty awesome i just wished they had Buch at how good he actually was cause then the team would be rediclous

[EXman369]

Still a while untill i pick though ill get on at around 3-4 to check and then again at 9-10

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Sounds good.

I always loved the MVP series from EA Sports. Those games were the best until freaking 2K bought out the baseball series. Unreal.

 

EA Sports does awesome with their sports. NCAA and Madden are so fun, and they made MVP a blast too.

 

2K10 was ok, not great, but ok. I have gotten used to it so much that I've since forgotten how good MVP was until you just mentioned it The Show.

[italstallianion]

Flynnatic didn't make his pick yet? Oh well, I guess I don't feel bad then for sleeping in. I think I have a little more than an hour left before I can skip him and make my picks anyway.

[Flynnatic10]

Curse you Flynnatic...

 

I love you too.

 

Let me check salaries then I'll make a pick.

[italstallianion]

Holy crap that was weird. Just remember to stay online because I should have my 2 picks in right afterwards.

MVP was insane. I had both 04 and 05 and was regularly playing both until I traded in the first Xbox for the 360 a couple of summers ago. Rosters were a total mess from me trying to keep up.

 

2k simply owns with their NBA games. Don't understand why the MLB games are so terrible on the flipside.

[italstallianion]

MVP baseball is one of my favourite baseball games of all time, along with Major League Baseball with Ken Griffey Jr. for the N64.

[Flynnatic10]

So, a player i want to pick doesn't have a salary listed on the site.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I love you too.

 

Let me check salaries then I'll make a pick.

 

But you don't love me? I see the black thing is in effect again.

MANCRUSH! :thumbsup:

So' date=' a player i want to pick doesn't have a salary listed on the site.[/quote']

 

 

Can you message me the player? I'll give you a good idea at what you should do.

That's African American thing to you.
