Trudem is up, then BKS for 2!

I am about to eat dinner, so I will be back in 20-30 minutes if it comes back to me.

Nice work getting this thing moving boys!

Pick in and done with pitching
Dude, my pitching is pretty much gonna suck, but I like my hitters so far.

Total reach, but obx knows I'm down with it. Zack keeps those walks down, watch out. :nod:

I am really high on him, and with two Mets fans in the draft don't mind overreaching a little.

Also with the rest of my pitching staff, I don't think he hurts my WHIP and ERA that much. While helping my Ks and Ws.

I am not commenting on where zach wheeler went... it is the fact he finished his pitching off, and how he finished it off... But maybe he will prove me wrong... I just thought his rotation was so good that he should have waited and gotten a low end closer at the end of the draft...

Tough choice of going for the third closer or another starter. This was the end of my draft plan, now I just have to find hitting

Hornsby stay around after your pick. I'm home now so I'll get my picks in pretty fast

Hopefully you prove me wrong, but i think the wheeler pick in the 10th round is the reason why you wont be "in the money"...

I could be completely off on my strategy, but I always try to fit my draft to the league.

I am just a little dissappointed because i was fascinated by your strategy... But i just think you went too far and missed a great opportunity...

Not trying to pick on you, its just that you had the most interesting strategy, and i thought it could work, now i see no way...

There is another reason to my strategy of that pick, but since it affects the rest of the draft, ask me after we are done.

Always open to constructive criticism.


Right now I have to go crawl under a truck, if my pick comes up I will be back in 30-45 minutes.

Wheeler does not hurt him, kind of silly to suggest that. He will still be top 2 or 3 in 4 pitching cats.

The problem? If he finishes first in ERA, WHIP, Ks, and Wins,

he will still need 40 points or so from the rest of his roster, and that is highly unlikely given how far behind he is offensively. The other issue is that I don't think he will finish first in all 4 of those cats. Top 2 or 3, sure, but anybody ignoring relievers can beat him in wins and Ks, and there are some other good pitching staffs who can win ERA and WHIP with a little luck.
