Fantasy Draft Commentary

Beef just grabbed 2 relief pithcers.

[fightonusc]

I went through his proxy list, and he had those two relief pitchers listed before any of his starting pitchers. And since he's got his position starters filled, I think it's best for him to get him the best pitchers possible before filling his bench.

also - beefmaster is the only one who has not picked both SPs, so he can wait until his last pick and still get the best available

Giving him the luxury of choosing Ozzie Smith, strange.

[dvldog]

i believe ozzie hit 2 homers in one game during one of the previous seasons - i doubt it will happen again

[TβG]

nobody wants lefthanded relief huh?   i have those guys ranked some of the highest

[BeefMaster]

Oz was the top guy left on the list I gave fightonusc a couple days ago.  I had starters listed over relievers, but they were all gone by the time my turn came around, so he grabbed the top guys left for me.  Whenever I'm up next, I'll try to make my own picks, as Oz was about at the end of the list.

[fightonusc]

I not convinced that it makes that much difference in a computer vs. computer game. I'm sure that some of the veterans from other seasons might have different opinions based on other facts, though.

[BeefMaster]

ShitPaw, can I tell them about the secret to pitching in fantasy RBI?

[ultimate7]

Before the draft, I had a pretty strong hunch what it was, DvlDogs pitcher pick confirmed my hunch.

[fightonusc]

A question about league play:

I originally had intended to split the eight teams into two divisions, and not have teams from the two divisions play each other until the playoffs. Thinking about that, though, that means that perhaps I wouldn't be able to play against ShitPaw for the entire regular season, and that seems to take a lot of the fun out of it.

What do you guys instead think about each team plays each other team twice (once home, once away) during the season, and the top four teams move into the playoffs?

[defen]

Sounds good to me.

[ultimate7]

Yeah sounds good.

[TβG]

any word from the 'paw?

[ultimate7]

My goal is to get drunk enough to select Owen and Santana.

Well I think we know who he wants for his next 2 picks

[TβG]

[dvldog]
