Canseco is a steal at #7

I was surprised by both the Bell and Strawberry picks over Canseco.

Canseco is #3 in HR/AB for the last 4 seasons among qualifying players (min 100 AB).

He is also 7th in OPS, though he's down at 23 in batting average.

Amazing, Barton just logged off. He was just logged in and I sent him a message. Well, I'm pretty sure he has to check with RePeat first since Repeat is the majority owner of the Rebel Alliance. Normally RePeat doesn't come on to dee nee until 10-11 pm Sweden time.

You guys also need to figure out proxy picks.

I was surprised by both the Bell and Strawberry picks over Canseco.

Bell consistently puts up better numbers than Canseco and Straw hits for a better average and has above average speed, but Canseco has a better HR percentage and is capable of hitting over .600 this year, but the probabilities are against that according to my data.

BTW, DaEvans is 4th in qualifying OPS, 6th in HR/AB, and 5 in batting average.

Yep, he can light it up for sure. He's probably gong to hit .600 and have over 20 jacks. I was going to take him, but you should see how many double plays he hit into---and was gunned down going from first to third and second to home.

I'm looking forward to this draft. I am a better prepared and better experienced manager now, and I think I've got the tools and knowledge to figure out an offense that doesn't have the hitting MVP and then a bunch of dipshits who could turn a double play if you spotted them an out.

[TβG]

wow guys.  you're not gonna want me chasing you around telling you it's your turn to pick do you?

[Nacho]

Seriously.  I thought we'd be in round 4 by now.

[Darky]

I think RePeat is still in the school cafeteria...taking his time whilst devouring everything in site...including utensils.

[Nacho]

So RePeat knew he'd be away all day today and he didn't consult with RePeat ahead of time to make the pick?

RePeat and Barton's team is already in shambles. Actually Barton did tell me that he tried to text/call RePeat, but RePeat may have ate his phone...

This was worth the read.

Is it safe to say that Darky is blowing it so far?  I think so.

[TβG]

repeat even made a post over on ATG.  come on, guy...

[Barton]

I'm doing what I can to get in touch with him. On here and elsewhere.

[Darky]

Nacho, the Empire already has the Look. No imo...fact'D!!!

I'll mail RePeat right now to remind him since he is logged on.

[Darky]

How could RePeat be thinking still? Clearly not prepared for the draft. This is why I have this meatball in my division. It's nice to have a doormat to step on...

[Nacho]

Poorly managed league imo

Definitely need time limits.

That would never work. This isn't life or death. Let's put things in perspective here.
