League of Newbs

[Boxcar]

I exaggerated - here's the first round:

 

[ATTACH=CONFIG]1452[/ATTACH]

 

That seems like a big time fail. Arrieta, Grienke, Scherzer, Jansen, Davis, Kershaw, Pollock all way overdrafted or slightly overdrafted. That's almost half the round.

 

If the rest of the draft went like this, easy to see why you pulled out with such a sexy autodrafted team. 7 arms taken in the first round, none of whom are named Price or Sale.

I didn't like having over half the draft on

autopick but it wasn't too bad.

Fantrax is horrible. No idea why anyone uses it for baseball. Oh well, I think my team might be able to contend.

My bad on missing the draft; was away for a while. I'll join up next year if y'all do it again. Looks like fun!

You do understand we now play the team you have for a "fantasy baseball" season?

[Nafro]

Okay so I would be looking to trade for some top relief pitching or an ace.

 

I have prospects Jose De Leon, Julio Urias and Blake Snell available. Also have mid season returns Zack Wheeler and Hyun-Jin Ryu. Also extended spring pitchers Lance McCullers and John Lamb.

[Pinkfloid]

Signed up back in what, December? But missed the deadline to register for the auto-draft.

[TBJ12]

Hey guys, looking to deal one of Bautista or Harper. Bullpen arms are a must in any deal, wouldn't mind an upgrades at SS, CF and LF as well.

I need a bat, have a look

[Daniel Labude]

Is this league dead?

I'm making a late season charge with my auto draft team

[canadiansportsjunkie]

just checked for first time...1st place nice

[King]

lol

[GD]

rip

[Nafro]

I think it's safe to say you might be in first, but as one of the more active manager's my team's on a slight role. Over the last three weeks I am 38-3-1.

[Maahfaace]

I count 9 of 19 teams active........and I actually felt bad when I couldn't make the draft lol

[canadiansportsjunkie]

signed in for the second time this year....still in 1st

[Nafro]

signed in for the second time this year....still in 1st

 

The only place that matters is the last standing....You talked the most trash, but I let my pretend baseball team do all the talking!

[King]

So who won?
