Baseball Redraft League Draft and Discussion Thread

[Will617]

Yeah, so to anyone who I offered Choo or Werth, now that Ellsbury's off the table I'd rather not deal them.

I'm not mad. I just like ripping on a700 for being old. I do the same to Spudboy' date=' and a700 rips on me all of the time. It's no different than ripping on Dipre because he's brown, or ripping on me because I'm whipped. [/quote']

 

Sorry if you took that the wrong way it wasn't meant to say calm down as in don't get pissed kind of way haha.

WOW, so now I might actually be made at Forsyth for making a pick for once.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I'm meeting a dude at 10 to get it. He's only asking $220 for a 160gig ps3. 1.5 months old. Gotta love craigslist.

 

.....until I toss this guy 220 bones and get home to see the ps3 doesn't work...

 

Don't buy until you know it works. Ask him if you can try it before you buy it.

 

Before we lose discussion Dipre is up and I don't have his picks.

[italstallianion]

Dipre wants SP Matt Garza 3.35m

 

I think that would make it Exman's turn.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Nice pick with Garcia. Forgot about him.

 

Ellsbury is a great leadoff hitter IMO.

[SoxFanForsyth]

You're mad at me Italian? Did you want him?

As for you being whipped, a man is helpless when it come to hot sex. The guys that get me are the ones who are whipped who don't get any from the wife/girlfriend or the wife/girlfriend is ugly. I don't get that.

No, I wasn't looking at Ellsbury at all, I just had no idea that he was the "mystery player" that my deal with Will was contingent on, and that having him drafted meant that the deal wasn't going to go through. I'm not sure which one I'm more surprised at, the fact that he got drafted here, or the fact that him getting drafted was the reason that the deal fell through.

[a700hitter]

Forsyth wanted Jacoby_Ellsbury OF/talksox member 496' date='500 [/b']

 

I pick Jaime Garcia SP 400,000

I like Garcia. I was really on the fence between him and Myers. I regret my decision.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Looks like my pick wasn't so bad after all :thumbsup:

[Will617]

Really? I still think Ellsbury's going to perform just as well as he did his first two years. I'm really surprised that he was drafted this late.

[italstallianion]

It isn't a question of talent (or salary) I just didn't think that he'd be able to make it a whole season because of random injuries. Not to mention how many other OF were still available.

[Will617]

He had a freak injury last season, but I'm sure that he would recover from it by Spring Training. I really doubt that it would be something that he would have a chronic problem with, which is the way I feel about Youk and Pedroia's injuries as well.

[italstallianion]

I doubt that we'd hear from Exman in the near future, but when we sent me his picks a while back, one of his backups is still available now. I'm not sure if I should make that pick for him since he could very well have changed his opinions based on who was drafted over the past couple of rounds, but otherwise we'd have to wait until he makes his pick, or until sometime tomorrow for when we could skip him and Ytrb would be up.

[Will617]

Was the backup specifically for this pick?

[italstallianion]

No, it was for his last 2 picks. (However it was a different position than any of the other picks)

[italstallianion]

At this point I think the right thing to do is for Exman to come on here and make his pick. I doubt that the person he sent me gets taken in the near future (although I've been wrong about that kind of thing many times before) but I don't think that I should force him to take someone that he sent me as a backup for a few rounds ago, even if he was a different position than anyone else that he sent me. Worst case scenario Ytrb can pick tomorrow when Exman's time is up. Hopefully at that point we'd have rounded up a bunch of picks so that we could fly through the top part of the draft.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Yeah, I don't see EXman getting online tonight.

[italstallianion]

You think we are finished for the night?

 

 

If it was anyone other than Exman (who's on vacation) then I'd say no, but since he's on vacation and only checks in once a day or so (in the morning/afternoon) then I don't see him making his pick tonight, and it won't reach the 8 hour window to skip him until sometime tomorrow anyway.

I'll be around anyway. After one night of drinking,this old man will be on the couch for a couple of days.

[italstallianion]

After one night of Chinese Food, I'll also be on the couch for the next couple of days.

[italstallianion]

Ytrb could make his pick at 1:44pm tomorrow afternoon if Exman hasn't made his selection by then.

[Poopsicle]

Edwin Jackson, $400,000

Howz my team lookin?

[italstallianion]

You just need Brian Scalabrine and you'll have a good team.

[Poopsicle]

Brian Wilson's beard, $priceless

[italstallianion]

On a serious note (that means go away Poopsicle, hint, hint) if you guys want, Ytrb, Divinity, Will, you guys can send me your ideal picks in the event that Exman either makes his pick tomorrow morning or that we end up skipping him when his 8 hours is up. That way we may be able to get the ball rolling.
