Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 Lol wat. Wacha's only turning 27 this summer. He's pitched 650 MLB innings, dude; 108 MiLB IP sprinkled in among those. That is in no way, shape, or form "a fair bit of mileage". There's a really good chance he hasn't even hit his prime yet. While I would never tell someone how to run their team, I feel like you're overvaluing prospects and will be mired in a perpetual rebuild if you don't hang on to good MLB talent. Even though players are beginning to hit their peak at a younger age, most prospects still bust. I understand why you made this deal, though. In a vacuum, it's a decent return for Wacha, in my opinion. Sanchez is an interesting prospect, but if he busts, you didn't exactly get much in return. Meh, I dunno. Play on. I understand and have thought of what you say, but this deal was a good fit for my Houston Astros style rebuild. I'll have a good number of high upside prospects all beating on the MLB door at the same time. Plus 3 1st rounders in a deep draft is nice.....

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 Abom Jim Boxy Clocks start at 9am tomorrow?
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 4, 2018 Posted March 4, 2018 I have to say, I legitimately don't know who I'm going to take yet. My top two targets disappeared before the draft started. What a horrible year to have the top pick.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 His name is similar to Jarrett Pooper.
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I won't be around in the morning, so I'll post my pick now. Addison Reed Please message the next person when clocks start.
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Garrett Cooper - looks like he'll see both OF and 1B time
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Man, I'm feeling like J4L trolled me good here. Cooper a reasonable pick for a rebuilding team - will get opportunity and there is upside. But there are higher upside guys available atm, I realize.
Jimcanuck Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Asking the commish for a repick seeing that its not yet 9 am so the draft has not officially started.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Lmfao Jim, Christ. Why are you so easily influenced?
BTS Community Moderator Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Asking the commish for a repick seeing that its not yet 9 am so the draft has not officially started. Seeing as a) the next guy hasn’t picked, the draft hasn’t officially started, and c) I’m incredibly annoyed by the existence of Garrett Cooper, I think it’s fine if you pick someone else if you’re cool with the shame.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Lol Don't you f***ing dare laugh. This is all your fault. If I knew you IRL I'd kick you in the balls.

I would like you to visit the Tampa Bay Rays message board and look at the top thread in that forum. Let me know what you find.
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I would rather forfeit all my draft picks than live with the shame of 'asking for a redo because somebody tricked me into making a bad pick'.
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Don't you f***ing dare laugh. This is all your fault. If I knew you IRL I'd kick you in the balls. You OTC buddy boy.
BTS Community Moderator Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I really can't believe J4L19 got Garrett Cooper picked 2nd overall in the waiver draft.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I really can't believe J4L19 got Garrett Cooper picked 2nd overall in the waiver draft. I'm going to take Miles Mikolas again.
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I'm going to take Miles Mikolas again. He's off to quite the start to his MLB return.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Jim. I would like you to visit the Tampa Bay Rays message board and look at the top thread in that forum. Let me know what you find. lol... beans and pork belly!
AdamGreenwood Old-Timey Member Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I'll take Emilio Pagan. I messaged Connorp
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 6, 2018 Posted March 6, 2018 He's off to quite the start to his MLB return. I know he's not your type in that he is actually pitching
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 6, 2018 Posted March 6, 2018 I know he's not your type in that he is actually pitching Is that what he's doing so far?
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted March 6, 2018 Posted March 6, 2018 Is that what he's doing so far? Throwing baseballs then and not sitting in a hospital gurney or at a rehab clinic.
