EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Damn. I really don't need LeCroy when I have Pudge. And I'm just asking to jump on the Yankees' injury brigade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Figured I'd get bunches of middle relief due to autodraft. I need a better shortstop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I completely forgot about tonight's draft until about midway through it. The autodraft gave me Palmeiro in the 4th round and Randy Winn in the 5th. Last place here I come. Although I guess the real Bill Bavasi would love my team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Our league uses waiver rules, so you have about two days to claim un-drafted players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I'm a little shaky in my last place on my rotation. Overall my team's looking good. Hopefully I can find someone to take that last rotation spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 My lineup's solid with guys like Ramirez, Kennedy, Durazo, Berroa, Gerut, Olivo and Blalock. I got two capable relievers in Chad Bradford and Brendan Donnelly. My biggest concern's my rotation though. Tim Hudson, Jarrod Washburn, Brian Anderson, Kurt Ainsworth, Kevin Appier...here's hoping that Washburn returns to his 2002 form and that Appier returns to form as Anderson and Ainsworth have career years.

Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I am realtively happy with my team. My starting pitching seems decent enough, though I am a tad worried about the fifth spot in the rotation. My closer plays for Tampa Bay, which means I won't be getting a lot of saves. On the plus side, my team should have the edge in stolen bases. I have 6 players with at least 10 steals last year. Other than third base and catcher, I think my team could be relatively solid this year. I am excited. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 WTF... Why was Joe Nathan listed as a starter in the Yahoo Draft, yet when I got to put him as SP, he doesn't go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I am really happy with my team now that I got a catcher. I like that there are only 24 people left that qualify as a SP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly, the 5th starter's spot is going to be a bitch, because we're really scraping the bottom of the talent pool. There's only 5 pitchers more that have rotation spots than we require in this league. I lucked out with Grant Balfour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Perhaps, but I wanted to create a real challenge. Besides, I kind of like trying to figure out who will have a real season between Grant Balfour, Matt Riley, and Jimmy Gobble. Most real teams have bad 5th starters as well.

MrRant 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 Well I ended up not being able to attend and am glad that some of my picks went through but my auto draft picks only went so far. I think I only did through 50. Anyone (Al) want to give me a evaluation as it was my first time having to do so with only 1 league. Keep in mind that I already dropped A. Boone.

Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2004 I like the fifth starter idea. Hell, the two I have in contention for my fifth spot(Hernadez and Dickey) are about as good as some starters I was stuck with autodrafts in other leagues I have done. Considering this is AL only, they are probably a step up from the others. Besides, I think challenges can make a league more fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
