Woah now, clearly my superior drafting and management skills would have made me the 19 time defending champion if it wasn't for the curse. There can be NO other logical explanation. Sheesh, the inference that I may actually $uck at this is appalling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torn 45 Posted March 28, 2022 Sorry for delay - fell asleep early. Let me get caught up... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,681 Posted March 28, 2022 Well, that didn’t quite work out. I was wondering if TS would go double pitcher. Took a shot he wouldn’t go double Mets pitchers and it backfired. Should have gone DeGrom at 1.11 Heres hoping Justin Biebers shoulder doesn’t fall off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalentScout 2 Posted March 28, 2022 Good luck with Bieber Fever, I hear some penicillin should clear that right up. His shoulder on the other hand is a bigger problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kysar_soze 7 Posted March 28, 2022 Two Orioles on the roster by the 3rd round - I'm pretty sure that will disqualify me from winning... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalentScout 2 Posted March 29, 2022 Isotope left me a proxy which sadly isn’t available. He is unable to get to his phone so I expect a fairly lengthy delay here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torn 45 Posted March 30, 2022 For those of you who have had the wonderful experience of getting a colonoscopy, that's what I'm doing today. You can guess where I've been for most of last night and this morning. LOL I'll be out of the loop and unreachable from about 12:45-4:00pm ET today. Sorry in advance for any delays. Hoping we get to 8.03 before I have to go. I will proxy if necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalentScout 2 Posted March 30, 2022 I have a keeper at 13.01 if anybody wants to trade up in that round so I can move up in another round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PSULions 0 Posted March 30, 2022 I have a keeper in the 12th round so we could just switch picks in the two rounds. TS - Gives 12.12 and 13.01 PSU - Gives 12.07 and 13.06 Pretty simple. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,681 Posted March 31, 2022 getting a round of golf in at 11:30 est. i will check in here and there and have a few names in mind for my next picks but I may not be as quick to pick as normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TalentScout 2 Posted March 31, 2022 I’m getting a round in at 10 am PST and am in the same boat. Also I don’t think I pick for like 5 rounds so it shouldn’t be a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,681 Posted April 1, 2022 Well, we passed the half way point in a little under 6 days. Considering there are a lot of keepers penciled in from here on out, I think we should be on good track to finish by the 5th or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torn 45 Posted April 1, 2022 Yes, pace has been decent and I think we'll be fine. Would like to finish by the Fourth so we can roster FAs for opening day if (when) any last minute injuries come up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
