But he isn't allowed to take the 2 guys I want.

PS I do agree to this trade

I only did this one because I have a pretty precise plan for my next four picks, and if I execute it, my team should be really good independent of the rest of the draft.

 

[Ritzarmy]

Nos sorry to hear about this
Minnesota Vikings defensive tackle Linval Joseph was struck in his calf by a stray bullet fired in a nightclub in downtown Minneapolis early Saturday morning, the team said in a statement.

 

[Ritzarmy]

Bums is OTC with 4 picks

 

[Darkstone42]

Oh, I hope Nos approves this trade. I have so many ideas for my next picks if it gets approved.

Thank goodness for my elaborate Excel spreadsheet.

 

[Ritzarmy]

Nos will properly deny it because I am involved in it. Every trade I'm involved in I'm called a cheater so maybe you should hope Nos does reject it

 

[Darkstone42]

I'm watching my first pitcher selection, Corey Kluber, today.

Man, this kid's good. His movement is nasty, and his command is so precise.

 

[Nosferatu]

Bums 4 picks are in. Ritz is up... Cheater!

 

[Darkstone42]

Bums 4 picks are in. Ritz is up... Cheater!

So does that mean the trade is rejected?

 

[Darkstone42]

Honestly, it's not that big a deal to me either way. I took the deal because I trust my late-round ability, but for that same reason, I don't need to trade up all that much.

 

[Ritzarmy]

Nos we need a ruling so either Dark or I can pick.

 

[Nosferatu]

Sorry, the trade is approved! Yer up Stone...

 

[Ritzarmy]

Sorry, the trade is approved! Yer up Stone...

But your statement still stands that I'm a Cheater, correct? I don't want guys thinking I'm starting to do a trade that's honest

 

[Nosferatu]

I gotta say I don't like that trade for Stone, you move ahead of Molsan and gave up your 8th round picks to do so only getting back 11th round picks. You that worried Molsan was gonna take the guys you wanted?

I hadn't taken any relievers yet, and I wanted to make sure I got a top closer. And I need to start to compete with your rotation!

And I moved in front of two picks from Ritz, four from Molsan, and four from Gandy. I expected at least one of those two guys to go before I got to pick.

First Gandy and Bums trade was more unfair since it involved the last round picks and this one involved the 11th. Plus it wasn't just Molson that he moved in front of. He moved up 10 spots. 2picks Ritz, 4 picks Molson, and 4 picks Gandy then he would have drafted.

 

[Darkstone42]

This also means I don't have to pay attention for a while.

You don't have to trade to not pay attention. Nos does it all of the time.

 

[Nosferatu]

Yeah yeah, quit yer bitchin!


Molsan is OTC for four!

 

[Ritzarmy]

Yeah yeah, quit yer bitchin!


Molsan is OTC for four!

Shocker news: I PM'd him.

 

[Darkstone42]

I really like my lineup and top three in the rotation.

Now I have a shut-down closer to anchor the bullpen I should probably start building. Just need a good bench now, I guess.
