Yeah, he had really interesting peripherals 2nd half, I was hoping the lack of name value and ugly ERA would let him stay out longer, considering Vince may be taking that 5th spot and Reed is hopefully a good backup for E5 if he breaks down. That was a nice and fun pick, should also be fun see you agonize over it in case of a bad start har harr

So Spring Training was spectacular as usual. My takeaway this year is that there is no way Jose Altuve is 5'5". Not a chance. He looks tiny on television but from a rather spectacular seat right behind the dugout he looks like they brought in a celebrity guest from a Little People TV show.

One day, I'll make it to a week of spring training!

I learned Denard Span owns Rubby De La Rosa. Well, everyone owns Rubby De La Rosa, but Denard especially. Also the ladies dig Hunter Pence. Neither fact is helping me draft properly.

Well here's an example. I drafted Adam Jones 3rd round. Now look at Jay Bruce who was drafted...can't even Remember but maybe 15th round. Now look at the numbers and tell me who's better. Yeah Jones could bounce back but I'm not really confident. So my first prediction....by seasons end Jay Bruce will be my m.v.p

I know I'm new, but just a thought....it's been almost 36 hours and counting trying to finish round 24...I know we get 24 per but maybe we can cut it down like Eric suggested...just a thought!

Yeah this will end up being by far our longest draft ever. The problem with cutting it down from 24 hours is it becomes very easy for someones pick to be due in the middle of the night, which obviously doesnt work either. We'll for sure have to discuss options after the season. Until then, we will all just have to do our best to make sure we finish ASAP.

Sorry for dragging the last pick out, I was sleeping over at grams last night. And yes, I'm a grown up dude that loves his granda. Deal with it.

It's a good personality trait, whatchawant But yeah, my sister and her hubby and their 2 boys (2 and 4) stayed over at my place, and I had to shack up with grams...she's like 90 and would not shut up the entire evening, god bless her soul.
