Having those guys last season didn't do me any favors. Someday, I'll crack the code for this league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 13, 2021 I suspect we'll be kicking off the draft later today (Sat, Mar 13) or tomorrow. I've updated the league site and draft tracker sheet with all locked in trades and keepers to this point, so I just need to add in Isotope's info and we'll be ready to go. Good luck to all - I hope we have a great season with minimal COVID impacts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalentScout 2 Posted March 13, 2021 That is not great for me... I am 100% unprepared as per usual Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 13, 2021 To be honest - same here. I've done little research, but I'm hopeful to fit some in before the draft swings back to me in the 2nd round... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,453 Posted March 13, 2021 Does the yahoo site reflect keepers being removed from the player pool? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 13, 2021 Yes - use the "Show Available Players" option to see an accurate list of available players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torn 42 Posted March 13, 2021 I'll be out for the night starting around 6pm ET. If it does get back to me at a reasonable hour, shoot me a text and I'll try to proxy, but can't guarantee it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,446 Posted March 14, 2021 Sorry about the delay, was picking up dinner, plus I had no idea on whom to take as I was bouncing between 3-4 people... Probably regret on taking whom it was down to against Rendon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 14, 2021 Sorry for delay in sorting the trade out. Everything should now be up to date (Yahoo, draft tracker and forum) with all trades and picks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 42 Posted March 14, 2021 Can't complain with Acuna for my 4th rounder, but it is painful to watch so many players come off the board without making a pick in the early rounds. I know, cry me a river... lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torn 42 Posted March 14, 2021 Hahaha - I knew that post would get a rise out of some of you. While it IS tough to soldier through the 4th round with Acuna, I guess I'll get over it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not overly fond of Happ, but at least you made that decision easier. Hoping that Happ can stay at the lead off spot. Also, curious on opinions regarding Andres Gimenez. I love the potential and I needed some speed, but it felt like a reach. Didn’t think he’d last until my next pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
