Trade bait!

Hall of Fame shortshop and plus defender, 1935 Joe Cronin (28 years old) is available for a dispersal pick.

HoF catcher 1902 Roger Bresnahan (23) is also available. Deadball catchers will gun down runners like crazy.

If you refuse to offer picks, I'm looking for 2B and 1B.

Maybe, I wasn't around for it, but I gathered it was 'not currently in.' And the Maths were relegated.

Beyond that, the Intercontinental, European, United States and Hardcore championships were all vacated when the Bangers were retired, so the Hardcore will go to the CERN Colliders as the winners of the EC, and who can also trade in their first-round pick for the EC prize, which is any player that is not currently in the Super-League.

...you should not approve the trade.

With the 15th overall Dispersal Draft pick, The Canton Catastrophes select '69 Joe Morgan.

Pander is on the clock.

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.





In the Sandwich Round, with the 16th overall pick, the Sad Pandas select '07 Albert Pujols. May he be better than Nick Johnson, Johnny Hopp, and Rookie Moose Skowron.

cbx is on the clock I think. Not sure. Eh. Someone is.

So I will be away from the Internet for the next 24 hours. Seeing as I have the 4th pick and to keep the draft moving I will now list my top 4 picks. Please use the highest pick that has not been drafted...

1.Whitey Ford '53
2.Whitey Ford '64
3.Lefty Grove '27
4.George Brett '77

And the 3 round pick might be for sale for a SS.
