I'd ridicule the ellsbury pick, but why bother? No need to make fun of the Gold Medal winning Special Olympians on this board Nice pick with Matt Kemp, brother. Now all you need is for Joe Torre to stop pissing around with the batting order. He has been a great fantasy player. BTW this just adds further proof to my theory that people dislike Teixeira.

People dislike the Yankees. Has nothing to do with Tex.

Hey guys, I want to deal off this pick or Fielder (to select Ryan Howard). I'd prefer not to take two 1B's in two rounds. Sorry to hold things up a bit guys, but I want to see if I can get a deal done. Anyone have any offers? I would be happy to move down in this round if the offer is solid.

I appreciate your efforts but I think it defeats the purpose. Hahaha.

1. Arch, no disrespect intended, but if you seriously draft Zito in the 2nd round, you'd be putting me in a tough position. I can't help but to SERIOUSLY question your ability to run a team if you're going Ellsbury/Zito in a 12 teamer, and to be completely honest (and not to make you feel unwelcome), I might consider looking to replace you. Again, NO disrespect or offense intended, and we can discuss your strategy if you want- but I need to see where you're going with this, because personally I think you're sabotaging this team on purpose, and I won't allow it if it's true.
2. Teixeira isn't necessarily "hated" nor are the Yankees (though obviously they're hated). The reason Teixeira fell so much is:
A. He's not as good as Pujols/Fielder B. Miggy gets more hype (personally, I think Teix is better- any RW posters can find my opinion of Miggy in his thread. To summarize, he's too fat/lazy/alcoholic IMO to warrant a 1st round pick, because he should have improved from his 23 year old 1.000 OPS season; instead, he's taken (very) small steps back. Though his regression is VERY minor, it doesn't bode well, since these should be his years of IMPROVEMENT) due to name alone. On overall production, they're pretty damn similar- but people like to chase Miggy's potential, and I can't dispute that. C. A lot of people (myself included) hate going 1B in the first round
3. Love the Kemp pick, Anthony- major steal!
4. Beau, I'm interested in Fielder. Let me know what we can work out (I'd be willing to trade ARod for Fielder+, maybe picks? I'd be willing to consider something along the lines of ARod + my 2nd for Fielder + your 2nd; not that EXACT offer, but something like that). CONTACT ME!

Sent you a PM John. Let me hear your offers guys. I promise we will work something out soon and get these wheels rolling quickly. I will be at Disney all day today so I'm looking to make a lot of picks and trades. It beats the hell out of working.

I'm 99.9% sure Archie is kidding about Zito.
Beau, let me know what you'd want for Fielder. I'd be interested as well.
