cmh6476 Posted February 25 Posted February 25 my team is going to make some noise this year and probably just miss the playoffs as we usually do Quote
cmh6476 Posted February 25 Author Posted February 25 I'm flying out to DC on the 3rd and back on the 4th so there will be some times those couple days where I won't be available. Might be hit and miss throughout the day just with meetings scheduled those two days as well. Quote
ZeroTolerance Posted February 25 Posted February 25 My team will make noise for sure (wet farts are noises too). Quote
lambert58 Posted February 25 Posted February 25 My team might set records and not in a good way. I don’t have any exclusives with 70 or more RBI. Only 2 with over 60. Only 1 exclusive with over 15 starts with a winning record (8-4). Ugly season ahead. can I buy extra supplemental picks? Quote
GuardBum Posted February 25 Posted February 25 If only there was a way to trade the 1-12 turn picks for somewhere in the middle of the pack... smh Quote

WhiteWonder Posted February 25 Posted February 25 I still don't know how I made the finals last year. The Rays were awful, some of my supplemental picks were flat out busts... looking at you, Cruz! and I had my share of injuries. I would guess that things wind up looking better on paper this year but the result is worse anyway, all the draft threads have been edited to include the proper teams/pick numbers. We should be all set for Monday 1 Quote
cmh6476 Posted February 26 Author Posted February 26 any reason not to open the round 1 thread this weekend and let people make their picks at their convenience until we officially start on Monday? Quote

Plus you still have time to watch the baseball classic as it matters to the supplemental draft picks. I'd guess we're all pretty much in the we know what options we got to pick from mode. Quote

BlackClouds Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I'm just in this league because it's safe & affordable. Winning this thing isn't even in my top 5 reasons for being here. 1 Quote

Jim Mora Posted March 2 Posted March 2 Apologies @dcb291 ! I didn't expect to have a chance at both until I saw the dice rolls. Quote
bbascom Posted March 2 Posted March 2 @cmh6476 - I figured this would happen next: 3.06 Aroldis Chapman, RP, BOS I was torn between going for 2 SPs in rounds 1 & 2 or 1 of the 2 SPs that I grabbed and Chapman. I don't have much for access to saves so he was certainly a target there. Quote

I don't have much for access to saves so he was certainly a target there. My available talent pool outside of exclusives begins to fall off a cliff once the top 3 or 4 guys start to go. My roster makeup leaves me most vulnerable in the OF and pitching, and is likely where I will have to focus my supplemental picks. So getting guys like Rooker and Chapman early at least gives me somewhat viable options, as I really don't have any superstars that I'm competing with anyone else for. Quote

Of course I wanted Pivetta so Quote

WhiteWonder Posted March 2 Posted March 2 always nice when your top two picks were not wanted by any other teams in rounds 1 and 2, but you clearly can't wait for round 3... i know, it's the chess game but I can't remember the last time the bones were actually kind to me .... good luck in St. Louis, Randy!

Of course I wanted Pivetta so Oh trust me, that thought was there as he was absolutely dominant last year. My biggest issue was I would be chasing the saves category as I have the opposite issue that you do and I have no exclusive closers right now. So, I'd have to draft multiples now or in the sup. I can punt that one category and just try to get better SP depth for the inevitable injuries down the road. A starting pitching group of Crochet, Gray, Bello, Pivetta, Suarez, Priester...is looking pretty solid but time will tell. Quote

I did not expect you to pick Nimmo. Pretty bad draft slot for me being after the Padres but before the Rangers. Looks like I will wind up with 2 of my top 7 players Quote
ZeroTolerance Posted March 2 Posted March 2 Gambled on Flaherty in the hopes either Ray or Boyd would make it back, but f*ck me I guess. Quote

lambert58 Posted March 2 Posted March 2 Was hoping I could get 1 of Gray or Flaherty. Was torn between Gray and Arozarena in round 1 but my OF is putrid and I chose the player who could help daily instead of every 5 days. once I lost Gray and Flaherty, I decided to add a closer who is just a couple of years removed from leading the NL in saves. A good bounce back by Helsley will help me greatly. Quote

I pretty well knew Bichette and Gausman would go and thus it kinda put me into a grab mode for that next tier SP to get someone not on the Jays. Quote

I had sort of penciled in an Alonso/Bichette/Nimmo start. With plenty of power and a decent OF option, I would not have missed Soto at all, to be honest. Once Nimmo was plucked, I briefly considered Helsley but was not 100% sure the Blue Jays wouldn't pick BOTH Bichette and Semien. I forgot about Robbie Ray and it sounds like Semien was never a thought, so perhaps I should have gone Helsley/Semien but I also don't like paying up for more saves. Quote
RaiderHaters Revenge Posted March 2 Posted March 2 I dont need Xander, I wanted another OF, but with Tatis, Merill, Soto, Grisham already locked in I figured a infielder was better, I am hoping CJ Abrams gets traded and plays 2B Quote
