  1. Who can I send a couple of picks to?
  2. Not his fault. He hurt his bird last night.
  3. I can't believe he's been available all this time, with those numbers. s***, I didn't even realize swinging strike percentage was one of our scoring categories.

  5. Also, I'm now prepared to name BTS MVP of the draft.
  6. How many times have we seen this pattern: 1) Chappy picks 2) BTS makes 2 picks within 5 minutes. 3) Radio silence from Chappy.
  7. Well then, it looks like I need an upgrade: Chris Colabello
  8. I twittered Greg Bird to check. The first link was an article asking if Greg Bird could hit 50 HR for the Yankees this year. The second link answered the first link pretty unambiguously.
  9. Here's another one. This is a Top 400 List + Honorable mentions, so if your guy doesn't make this list, he probably isn't too good. http://www.fantasypros.com/2016/01/top-400-worldwide-mlb-prospects/
  10. Cool. Sounds like you've thought this out well. Appreciate you doing this as it will save me some work when doing prospect rankings. My only concern of your points method is that I feel a guy who is #100 on a prospect list is valued much more than a guy who doesn't appear at all. Whereas, in your system, the difference of 0 and 1 points is not very much.
  11. 1) Currently, to arrive at the average, you're dividing by two instead of by 3. 2) I don't understand your points column. I usually scale the rankings to a common base (ie 100), add in a variable for players who don't appear on the list (usually 150), sum them up, and give them a score based on reverse rankings. 3) Add a binary column to distinguish between players that have already played, and those that have never played in MLB. 4) This looks like a lot of work. It's easier to just copy/paste the lists (format the extras out) and then do a lookup table. 5) You may want to consider giving different top 100 lists different weightings. 6) You could add Prospect 361. They're not huge, but they focus exclusively on milb. Not sure about KATOH. This is awesome though. I'm going to export this to Excel to do my prospect rankings.
  12. OK, L54 took Andre Ethier. Just because we can pick through Yahoo, doesn't mean we should do the JaysBlue thing. Let's post our pick in the forums and pick through Yahoo, so there's no confusion about who is up, and so people don't have to go to Yahoo to check and see all the time. I'll take Mitch Moreland.
  13. What are the rules? Can he stash him in the minor leagues?
  14. No, I just screwed up, and got it backwards. I meant he's a great real life prospect, and not that great at fantasy. Attention to detail is not my strong suit.
  15. You guys need a 1st baseman.
  16. I feel like anytime I make a pick that does not cause a 'faaaaawk' out of Ace, means I screwed up.
  17. No, the forum participants have no idea what they're talking about. They get all of their information from other writers, and the little bit of statistics that is available. And then when a writer goes against the other writers, or the stats, they think he is a complete clown, without knowing any of the ranking methodology. It's also important to recognize the difference between real-life prospects and fantasy prospects. Buxton is a fantastic fantasy prospect, in real-life, not quite as much.
  18. I'm tempted to needle L54 some more, but I may want to attempt some trades with him later in the season.
  19. All it takes is a few people to take a long time making their picks, and then everyone else pays less attention to the draft because not many are going to hover near their computer when we're getting a pick every four hours.
  20. Nah, it would probably take you 33 hours to unzip your pants.
  21. While I haven't been keeping a speedbump tally, I am prepared to announce L54 as the LVP of the draft.
