Baseball Redraft League Draft and Discussion Thread

[Will617]

Yrtb is on. We need Divinity too*, though.

[italstallianion]

Hey, picks are picks. I'm just happy that we get a step further, plus Ytrb may be likely to send me his pick for tomorrow, and I don't think that Divinity has school so he might have a shot at making picks tomorrow morning/afternoon.

[yrtb]

Jose Valverde, CL

7 mil I think

[italstallianion]

Yep, it was 7m. Anyway Divinity is up.

[italstallianion]

Divinity isn't online, but I didn't think that he'd make his pick tonight, unless 3am counts as the nighttime.

[italstallianion]

Ok, at this point I have Ytrb's pick, Dipre's 2 picks, and Forsyth's pick. (Also potentially RSFFL's pick if he wants to go down the ladder from the picks he sent me earlier)

 

 

Edit: I now have Will's pick as well.

[Will617]

You sure? I might change it Ital. Maybe I was just gauging your interest in the player :harhar:

[italstallianion]

Hopefully if Divinity comes on late he will send me his pick so that when I wake up in the morning, I can make Will's pick, Dipre's pick, Divinity's other pick, Ytrb's pick, Exman's pick, Dipre's other pick, RSFFL's pick, and Forsyth's pick.

[italstallianion]

Actually I don't think I have Exman's pick.

[EXman369]

I sent it to you at 8

[italstallianion]

Ok, I got a new pick from Will and I got Exman's pick. Still waiting on Divinity.

[Divinity]

I'm here now, will make my picks in a few min

[italstallianion]

No problem. I have pretty much everyone elses pick, so when you make your pick, I'll make the next few, then you can make your 2nd pick and I'll make a bunch afterwards,so don't go anywhere after you make your first pick.

[Divinity]

Torii Hunter OF - 18m

[italstallianion]

For Will's pick, he wants Koji Uehara RP 5m

 

And since Dipre gets Will's 2nd pick, he'll take Fausto Carmona SP 4.9m

 

You're up again Divinity.

[Divinity]

Jason Vargas SP .412m

[italstallianion]

Thanks for the picks Divinity.

 

Anyway Ytrb wanted Arthur Rhodes RP

 

Exman wanted Jessie Crain RP 2m

 

Dipre wanted Carlos Pena 1B 10.125m

 

I'm going to check on RSFFL's pick before I make it. But I also have Forsyth's pick.

[italstallianion]

It is RSFFL's turn, but I'm a little confused at his list because the person he picked in the last round was in the middle of the list, so I'm not sure if he changed his mind on the first player, so I really don't know which of the 2 remaining players on his list to draft. I have Forsyth's pick, so while we could skip to A700 if I made an executive decision on RSFFL's pick, I think it'd be better to wait the few hours until he gets back from school so he can make his pick. A700 isn't online at the moment anyway, and I'm sure we'd get through a bunch of picks as soon as he gets back.

[EXman369]

Hey italy i wanted someone else before crian

[Keeper]

I'm surprised at some of the starters being taken. If you look hard enough, there are still a few potential gems out there.

[EXman369]

Hey keeper ill give u a cookie if u tell me

[Keeper]

Throw in Pedroia and you have a deal.

[EXman369]

ill send u a fathead of him

[Keeper]

You drive a hard bargain.

[italstallianion]

Hey italy i wanted someone else before crian

 

 

Yes, you did. But Matt Thornton was the first (non closer) reliever taken.

[EXman369]

Oh my bad italy sorry

[italstallianion]

No problem. It would have only been a problem if both of your picks are taken. Don't worry, things like that happen all the time. I feel like I'm the only one that checks the chart before picking lol.

[EXman369]

Yeah well i looked in the 2 RP list and on but he was in some ones closer spot which i overlooked

[italstallianion]

For the record, I believe that all of the draft spots say "RP" so that I could place them in the order they were drafted. Most people happened to draft a closer first, but I didn't want to have to start guessing who was going to be the closer. Similarly, all of the OF spots on the chart say "OF" instead of "LF" "CF" and "RF" so that I don't have to guess where each person is putting each person.

 

People will make those decisions in the clubhouse thread (reminder to update it people) and before any of the voting takes place.

[italstallianion]

I also apologise to anyone if you're made at me for not making RSFFL's pick. I'd rather wait the little bit before he gets back from school to make sure he makes the pick he wants. I also have Forsyth's pick behind it so if A700 is online we can get the ball rolling when RSFFL is out of school.
