mynameisjohn posted:gently caress I REALLY want to trade up. 8 more picks Yeah, so are a lot of shortstops but Tulo is extremely good as a defender considering how good his bat is. Usually you have to sacrifice one for the other (like HanRam's defense or Simmons' bat). I'm curious to see how OOTP handles Simmons because OOTP gives him pretty good potential as a hitter.

Usually you have to sacrifice one for the other (like HanRam's defense or Simmons' bat). He and Tulo were the only 5* shortstops. Part of that is because I think Simmons broke the 20-80 scale with defense though (I have it set to show numbers outside the top of the scale). I don't remember him having particularly impressive hitting stats. The game was trying to auto-draft him suuuuper early though.

Hey I picked. Sorry I was at work all day. C.C. was honestly the only decent pitcher I could think of. Just hoping past performance is considered by OOTP.

With Yordano Ventura coming off the board, the AL West is now the only division where every team has a starter (every team in the ALC has a pitcher, but Detroit drafted Kimbrel), and contains half of the teams who have 3/5 of their rotation filled (Texas, Anaheim, Milwaukee, Miami).

Hey guys if you could not take my Punto that would be great. Also friendly suggestion in the draft thread if you could say whose up next that's a big help for those of us who fall a bit behind.

Because Philly's pick came after the clock stopped, Seiferguy has the full three hours to start the day.

Derek Holland had a fantastic year last year and I would imagine he would have regressed a little but still be solid without injuries. My choice was between him and two wildcards. I'm hoping those guys continue to fall...

PECOTA projected Holland as having a 4.2 ERA this season...

I have a short list of Puntos written here and, by god, if anyone picks them before I get to them in a few picks (so some time tomorrow?), I'm going to cry.

So I've come to the conclusion that Punto hasn't been picked because everyone has already assumed he was picked long ago.

I've had Minor pegged since Round 3. Is there something in his projections that I don't know about that made him fall this far? Also, gently caress the position players.

Almost took Corbin over Pence. Kept hoping he'd land for me, but then when he did decided I'd rather just have more dingers.

Seriously, did you guys have a meeting to blackball Punto from being drafted? There's literally no excuse why he hasn't been chosen yet. None. Zero. Zilch.
