Top 10? That might improve TCA's pick that he trades within the month anyway.

you mean the time to take a pitcher isn't round 5?

I missed it. Who did Spittin take?

2 minutes if he sticks to his "I'll pick in the next 20m" word

The craziest part going back now looking at that thread is that Silvergun used to thank every single post.

Yanks interviewed AA about a front office job. That would have been fun

Pretty impressive that you punted a first rounder and yet I still like 66% of your draft.

Manfred saying NL DH as soon as 2017...yeah that gives EE and JB a shitload of leverage.

I read this as "i like my coffee without cream"

Now that I know Donaldson's reason for the most douchey of his haircuts I could possibly move him up a spot. https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/josh-donaldson-set-for-cameo-on--vikings--tv-show-203335222.html

That was the exact headline on the Jays Fans Facebook page about this...only it wasn't sarcastic.

I think that NJH and I will do a team by team review of each team's spects. Maybe grade them, and degrade you.

But...BP. You are supposed to rage at all things BP

pfft. Sacramento is more of a pitchers park than even AT & T. Plus he's fat. Back end starter with good control and good sink. Basically Chris Heston, a guy that has some value as long as he remains in the right park.

I just talked to GD about how I wish I went all arms in my DDL draft...especially since I knew I wouldn't take a pitcher in the first 100.

Did Nox ask you to post that?

I'd consider him at 8...if we could only pick from the Pirate org.

With the BORED draft going on and hating my DDL draft I decided to go back and see what worked and what didn't. Really there isn't much for strategy that I could see...but damn it's fun to look at now.

Sanchez had the unfortunate scenario of being linked to Syndergaard throughout his minor league career and that was furthered when it was rumoured that the Mets said either guy, and AA chose Thor to be in the Dickey trade. Even with that the original narrative about Sanchez (around here anyway) was trade him while his value is still that of a top 30 prospect, as there were many that felt he'd return more in trade than he would provide here. Now his traditional stats were better than his advanced stats and it gave some of the Anti-Saber crowd some ammunition to fire back with and somehow Aaron became the bad guy out of this. I don't mind Sanchez being in the minors trying to become a starter, but that as a failed experiment, just hurts the big club in multiple ways (kills Sanchez's trade value, while a likely weaker reliever is getting IP's with the big club in a year where they should be competitive). Sanchez starting in the majors, while everyone ahead of him currently is healthy...just makes zero sense to me. So at this point, Sanchez in the pen is safer and probably smarter.

NJH isn't an old man...he just plays one on this board.

You know you love cribbage...and assuming it is him, Reyestheroof is probably the same age as you

is this John? I had no idea you were on this board

I paid you to use your whole window...not throw your picks out the window. Just awful

I view them as a team that is badly in need of a smart front office. Bringing in AJax or Fowler would make a lot of sense. I can see them bringing in a platoon option instead of just replacing Garcia. I'd hate to see what their options are if they have an injury or two in their top 3 SP's.

It wouldn't surprise me if Detroit wins the Central next year...it also wouldn't surprise me if they are dead last.
