My god I just sent you my list and didnt even know I was OTC. You talked me out of taking the HOF hitter so went with a amazing closer. Guess I might need a amazing bullpen with a okay rotation.

I think you definitely will benefit from taking that slapdick (an overrated, extremely durable player that played a long time and was decent---I won't mention any names but I think most people will know who I am talking about) and taking Rollie instead.

Really hoped Giles would have made it to add/drops... with only 1 96 left I couldn't grab him... @femurov

I don't feel bad for drafting someone that you were hoping to get as an add/drop. I was very surprised looking at his numbers. Career OBP is .400. Very solid in that era. Nice power, nice average, stole a few bases. I'm kinda surprised he doesn't get drafted more often in these exercises. Maybe I should amend my underrated list.

I had the same thoughts about him when I was looking at him the morning - setting up the list for the rest of my draft.

If it's who I'm thinking of - I don't think I have ever even put him on any MLB draft list.

He was one of the my options for DH, but I have a better option. Don't take him

I think we are on the same page lol. Durable was the keyword that kinda gave it away

I remember him on the Indians in his first couple seasons and he was pretty good but he was great on the Pirates. I knew he was a very good player but looking at his numbers I was shocked. Kinda crazy he didn't win any Silver Sluggers but I guess in the era he played in there were so many great OF's.

No, I was hoping he got overlooked... in fact I selected Alou because I needed a 2 hole hitter, but thought damn I should have grabbed Giles instead... I really wanted him and think he's is getting over looked as well, just hoped it continued because I think I need to use my last 96 on a pitcher...
