mynameisjohn posted:drafting Kipnis above him was Kipnis was a bad-rear end last season. It's hard to evaluate what Utley would be like without injuries because it just feels like he's always dealing with them. A couple projection systems projected Utley and Kipnis to be very similar this season in terms of their averages. I think of Utley as the far superior defender but I don't know if that's still the case with his age.

I'm actually taking a bit of a risk here because there are more picks between now and my new pick than I have Puntos on my "I like these guys in the third round" list.  That being said, there are a lot of guys who are good picks here that are not on my list so I'm not too worried.

I have to sit here and watch 56 Puntos get picked in between my second and third picks! It's excruciating.

There's one Punto I really hope isn't chosen in the next 5 picks. In which case he'll probably be taken by the Astros in the next pick.

This was one hell of a pick to decide on, and after changing my mind about 8 loving times between 3 different players, the San Diego Padres select ... gently caress me. Make that 9. e: THERE. I PICKED. Infidel Castro fucked around with this message at 23:38 on May 15, 2014 |

I know he's been having a bit of a poo poo season in real life, but we're in stat nerd land where none of that matters. Craig is a RHB that can drive the gaps really well, which makes him a pretty drat good fit for PETCO. Infidel Castro fucked around with this message at 23:51 on May 15, 2014 |

The lovely thing is my original plan was to trade up to take Utley and welp would you look at that. I would have still taken Zobrist (@ SS) and had an Utley/Zobrist middle infield

I guess if OOTP has a boner for prospect rankings it's a fine choice, but irl there's a whole bunch of Puntos better than Cole out there

I think he will do fine in OOTP because the game can't really understand a pitcher with elite stuff that nevertheless doesn't miss bats. Neither do I.
