8 HOFers MLB Draft : CHAT

[Nosferatu]

UK going big on the Lions and the points tonight. I think yer givin it away on that one... Although with Lynch out the Seachickens might not score more than 20 or so but Stafford might score 20 himself for Seattle.

I think we should make Milk explain every pick, not just his own but all of them!

I don't think the Lions will win, but that's a lot of points to give with Lynch out. The Seahawks got rid of Turbin and Michael, who were quality backups. I think without Lynch, their offense becomes very average. But betting on the Lions won't keep you in the black for long. We'll see

8 HOFers and any player taken who played in the 2000's counts as a HOFer.

With 10 teams we will have 5 first round games. Each team who wins in their first game can take a player from the team they beat. If they take a HOF player they have to drop a HOF player. If they choose a NON HOF player they will drop a NON HOF player.

You only get a player after the 1st round games! You will not get to choose a player at any time other than after the first game.

After the first round we will be left with 5 teams. Of those 5 teams the team who drafted lowest (10 being lowest) gets a bye after the first round. The remaining 4 teams play in two separate games the winners play the team that had the bye in the 3 team Championship.

Unless of course you can think of a better way...

1 - C
1 - 1B
1 - 2B
1 - 3B
1 - SS
1 - LF
1 - CF
1 - RF
1 - DH
2 - Bench Infielders
2 - Bench Outfielders
1 - Bench Catcher
5 - SP
5 - RP

I like your scenario after the 1st round, but once it gets to 5, I would make the 2 highest picking teams play each other and give the bottom 3 a bye. That would leave the one winner and the 3 byes to play a head to head semi final and final. I hate 3 teams in the semis or finals. Make it head to head

I know you are joking, but that would be a lot of fun...

That's what the chat thread is for...feel free to provide in depth analysis on each pick

I like 3 team games but OK...

nos, first problem I see... If we are doing the first round playoff winner can take a player, doesn't that give an advantage to the teams the teams that play eachother from the top of the draft order...

For example smitty vs ritz... If ritz wins he gets Babe ruth(who would not take babe ruth) and he will drop a lesser HOFer... That would be such a bigger advantage than whoever wins the WLK Bums match and take a player like stan Musial instead...

That is an excellent point. I dont like taking a player anyhow. Unless someone can give me a solution to this issue I say we eliminate taking a player.

This will work out for UK, he gets me first and I doubt he would want any of the players I take anyway.

It's all in fun lol. If it were up to me, the winning team could take everyone they wanted from the loser, because, why not....it's something we haven't done. If it sucks, scratch it, but after the fact

You would fly under the radar easier if you hadn't kicked my ass last mock

Lets scratch it for this draft but the next NBA draft we do, lets put that in place, winner can take whatever they want, nobody cares about the NBA drafts anyhow.

Deal?

NBA drafts are the only ones that matter!

Deal. It will make it funner

 

[Nosferatu]

The way we will do it with the NBA draft is 1 will play 10 2 vs 9 and so on so the team that got the top pick wont be able to take the 2nd best pick in the draft.

With the 3rd pick in the draft, Milk selects the best pitcher in the draft, Walter Johnson. It will be interesting to see if Milk backs him up with another ace on his next pick, or goes for a more balanced offense/defense sequence. UK.com gives Johnson a 98 rating as a pitcher, only missing a perfect 100 because he can't switch pitch and throw lefty as well
