Stole Sutton from Shane. Shane is OTC for my 9th and his 9th

 

[Shanemansj13]

Screw you UK

 

[UK Cowboy]

Screw you UK

 

[Ritzarmy]

Screw you UK

No sir he screwed you first. Nos & UK have a advantage with back to back picks. They make their pick with the 1st selection and then steal with the 2nd causing a long cap till you get to make your second pick. Not bitching just the way the stealing worked out this time.

Not really. Once anyone steals, they only have one pick coming over the next two rounds, provided the use their second pick to steal

 

[Shanemansj13]

Bastards. I was about to steal from UK but I will let him live in fear for now

Being I haven't stolen anyone leave me out of this!

Well it appears today is my last day of fantasy football, I fucking lost in both of our money leagues. It was a fun little run, glad I made the playoffs in both leagues but it's over! From now on I will have a few fantasy baseball leagues every year, 2 fantasy hockey leagues and 1 fantasy basketball league, I am done with fantasy football... Congrats to Shane and whoever it was that beat me in the snake draft league...

 

[Nosferatu]

I did text Smitty and he's on his way...

Couldn't believe Brooks Robinson was still available.

I texted Milk

He doesn't bring much to a lineup.

Defense is overlooked in these.

Well defense should count if you want to stop the hitters in these drafts plus Robinson almost had 3,000 hits, over 260 homers, and 1,357 RBI's so not like he sucked at hitting. Just weird how a Hall of Famer, 18 All-Star, 16 Gold Gloves, AL MVP, and 2x WS Champ could drop to the 9th round.

It should count, but it really doesn't.

I don't think it was a bad pick or anything like that. Just don't view him as much of an asset to a lineup. His .401 career Slugging kinda takes care of that. (Career high of 23 homers and only once with back to back 20 homer seasons.)Especially coupled with his lack of walks(only once in 23 years did he have more than 56)

His 162 averages were 15 HR's 76 RBI's not impressive on any level, career .267 hitter with a career OBP of .322

Great with the glove but like Smitty said didn't really strike fear into opposing pitchers.
