bbascom 20 Posted March 2, 2016 There was my dilemma last round. Joe Smith vs Victor Martinez. Figured I would only get the one. Yeah, almost went somewhere else but couldn't pass him up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lambert58 56 Posted March 2, 2016 Skippy is still available! You and I both know we will be fighting for him in round 8... don't deny the power of the Schu.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lambert58 56 Posted March 2, 2016 and this post marks the moment in time that I found out Ryan Ludwick has retired from baseball. (scratches off list) Ok. This actually made me laugh out loud... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shotsup 832 Posted March 2, 2016 So if Chapman got 30 games what's Reyes going to get ? 60 ? 80 ? Hence the Asdrubal Cabrera pick I just made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GuardBum 73 Posted March 2, 2016 No that's a nice pick. Makes perfect sense Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted March 2, 2016 There's the round that kicked my ass. Martinez, Cabrera, Jimenez. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GuardBum 73 Posted March 2, 2016 I missed Jeffress but I'm happy to get Lowe. Both guys should have chances at holds and saves which will be in short supply on my team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 2, 2016 There's the round that kicked my ass. Martinez, Cabrera, Jimenez. Cabrera was going to be my 6th round pick before mets took him. Although your Napoli pick was the 2nd player I was thinking about why they hadn't been drafted (first was melky). Is Napoli just that bad now? A lot of teams have rights to him I would have assumed he'd go sooner Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of teams have rights to him I would have assumed he'd go sooner He has declined a lot the last 2 years. Average is down quite a bit, strikeouts are high. Just isn't the same player anymore. Only 50ish RBIs and 17 and 18 home runs the last 2 years. That's why I skipped him and grabbed V-Mart instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BlackClouds 24 Posted March 2, 2016 Pierzynski, Napoli, Lowe, Ruggiano - I just lost four players in five picks. Time to start looking at Hamilton. :hyper: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 2, 2016 Grasping at straws with Garza. He was horrendous last year and might be again but I guess that was his first real bad season. Sounds like he will be the Brewers 2 or 3 starter (they suck bad) and they will probably hope he has a good start so they can try to move him to a contender before the break.... Ala his cubs to rangers move a few seasons ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Burt 43 Posted March 2, 2016 Just an observation...but this thing has been flying by compared to years past. I realize we have two fewer teams, but to already be in the 7th/8th round on the day of the draft is pleasantly surprising. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 2, 2016 Between dropping 2 teams (I think we had 14 in 2014 also) and the new owners being very active it's been a hooge difference 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 2, 2016 Last years draft started on February 26 and the supplemental began on March 9...That is around 10-11 days... Nice. So we are in rounds 7-8 and less than 3 days officially in... most teams probably only draft 10-14 rounds. Still have some teams that need to do their exclusives from 26 forward but I'd say we finish by friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuardBum 73 Posted March 3, 2016 8th round raked my list. But that I had superstars by any means but I was really hoping for Chavez and Navarro especially. With Dyson and Rzepcznski on either side of Hendriks for me. I had 3 picks I wanted and decided just ditch the last thought and finish instead. Took Hendriks in the spot I wanted Chavez.
