Best one in a long time.

[Wolfman21]

Well, there seems to be an obvious #1 pick

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Fuck you Tankee

 

[OU11]

I like where I am at 7, I think i can get a great player there

 

[Wolfman21]

yea, i've scouted all of the catchers, 1b, 2b and about half of the pitchers. Even if I just get, what i consider, the 5th best pitcher...if he meets his potential, he would be like a #2 starter on my team this year. I'd take that. Very good looking draft class. I think the top 10 could all get very, very nice players.

 

[Yankee151]

Definitely going to mess this draft up. Last year my 2nd rounder was better than my first. My only smart pick in all our two leagues was picking up a 1st round talent in the 3rd (Don Drain)

 

[Karl Hungus]

I'll get more reports, but as of right now my scout isn't impressed with anyone.

FYI, this guy was a 13th round selection.

 

[OU11]

@jdlikewhoa why do you have my 1st this year? It was just last year wasn't it?

NM gook traded it to you

 

[osick87]

I think I found the next Ben Zobrist.

 

[Yankee151]

JD I'll give you #1 for your #2 and your 2nd. Obviously there's a clear favorite

 

[OU11]

We need doh to do the draft picks thread again

 

[OU11]

Also you need to check that you have all the picks you should.

 

[doh]

Yes I'l bring it back. Before immersion I wasn't into it. Now I must return with my only contribution to the league.

 

[Yankee151]

I think I'm good, there may be a 5th or 6th I traded and don't remember though.

 

[OU11]

Yes I'l bring it back. Before immersion I wasn't into it. Now I must return with my only contribution to the league.

Start with figuring out this draft. I traded for Australia's second second rounder, but they don't have one currently

 

[osick87]

I'm just going to say mine are correct unless there is a way to check

 

[Wolfman21]

I assume mine are correct. I should have one in every round as far as I know

 

[jdlikewhoa]

JD I'll give you #1 for your #2 and your 2nd. Obviously there's a clear favorite

Almost home. Give me a sec to look

 

[OU11]

Man this draft really is 2 rounds deep. @Mr. Radpants gon be happy

 

[Orlando]

Yes I'l bring it back. Before immersion I wasn't into it. Now I must return with my only contribution to the league.

What about same format?

 

[jdlikewhoa]

@Yankee151 Normally I would take that deal, but this is a deep draft and I'm confident you're gonna fuck your pick up. Make your move bitch

 

[Yankee151]

Guess this is my Last Resort then. You're up. @jdlikewhoa

 

[jdlikewhoa]

You're the worst. I was sure you were going to pick that catcher

 

[fignuts]

My scout rates this draft as average. While OSA has it completely loaded. HRMMMMM

 

[osick87]

I know it's high school but that kid's stats are ridiculous.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Trade me Campbell @Yankee151

 

[osick87]

My scout rates this draft as average. While OSA has it completely loaded. HRMMMMM

Does everyone have excellent in everything or is my scout #blessed.

 

[fignuts]

Errybody has excellent scout ratings.

 

[Orlando]

Everyone has Excellent or Outstanding in everything.

 

[OU11]

Yeah scouts get better with experience so some ratings might be outstanding

 

[Yankee151]

Trade me Campbell @Yankee151

No takebacks

 

[Wolfman21]

Wish I could see what my scout says about these guys. Damn being at work...shit

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Guess this is my Last Resort then. You're up. @fignuts

 

[fignuts]

Any cluhhh care to move up?

 

[OU11]

Any cluhhh care to move up?

I do I do

 

[Wolfman21]

Interesting pick

 

[Yankee151]

Ill give you 14 and 17

 

[Orlando]

My scout agrees with figs sadly

 

[Orlando]

I'd also move up

 

[Yankee151]

Ill give you 14 and 17

Same deal for the 4

 

[Wolfman21]

So which is generally more reliable...the team scout or OSA? I'd love to make my pick if it gets to me tonight so we can continue on, however I won't be able to see my scouts ratings until about 8:30 in the morning. I also can't see their signability...so this kinda sucks. I may just have to wait until the morning.

 

[Orlando]

To me JD took the random two star to me.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Maybe? OSA has him as the third best prospect. My scout has him as the best one.

I wanted Campbell. Imagine my rotation in 4 years with Campbell, Boys, and Mustafa. That seems a bit overkill though when I need a middle IF to accompany Inions. I'm pretty set at catcher and I remember high pick catchers not really panning out well in the UBL.

 

[Yankee151]

He was the guy I was debating. Should be a top SS, but not much in the way of hitting. Probably a 110 OPS+ at his peak with great defense. Not a bad pick though. Also very safe having Very High WE/Int, something I ignored with Last Resort

 

[Orlando]

Great glove, contact hitter with a bad eye and no power. I don't see it, but STARZZZ away.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Great glove, contact hitter with a bad eye and no power. I don't see it, but STARZZZ away.

Hit .521 with only 3 strikeouts. Good D, Great speed and great on the basepaths. I'll take my chances

 

[jdlikewhoa]

I think he fits my plan and the way I've been building the last couple of years. Might not have been the right choice for everyone.

 

[Orlando]

High school stats? Your chances, please take them.

 

[Wolfman21]

In High School

 

[Wolfman21]

I think I'm gonna roll with the Atlanta Braves model to Farm System success....take good young arms as early and as much as possible.
