Is stadium choice still up for discussion? Custom stadiums would be a little ridiculous but choosing historical dimensions from actual stadiums would be fun.

I like that, to a point. We should have some limits on dimensions at the very least, because 252 feet to the left field fence like the LA Coliseum seems like bullshit. I would totally support the Polo grounds though

OKAY I LIKE THAT SMILY :downs:

This is a lot earlier than I expected Abreu to go.

POWER. Admittedly I was scrambling a little bit and I really like him outside of this. Im probably more concerned with building a team I'd like than trying outright to win.

what are the park factors like in Cincinnati?

aha well at least it plays to beltran's strengths and limits his mediocre defense

Doing some thinking, will pick in a few

Along that line, I would have liked Dee Gordan mostly because of his versatility but I don't think we can take 2 months of a season as evidence that he's learned how to hit.

yeah, I'm not sold on the bat at all but he's a slick fielder and can steal a ton of bags

I think it's fairest to give the offending team their full pick clock to fix it.

true, i just don't want to miss my pick because Im west coast

CJ Cron was someone I was looking at as a potential bench bat, not as an everyday player

Politicalrancor

My rotation is

Cole Hamels
Corey Kluber
Chad Billingsley
Charlie Morton
Cgarrett Richards

The Killer C's

Josh Collmenter is not a starter imo

I always make sure players haven't been taken by ctrl+F'ing them in the draft sheet and I've never taken an already drafted player

Politicalrancor
Jan 29, 2008

what time is the skip?

Politicalrancor
Jan 29, 2008

Accidentally, my lineup is pretty balanced for handedness

Lefties: Dee Gordon, Scooter Gennett
Switch: Carlos Beltran, Yasmani Grandal
Right: Jose Abreu, Yoenis Cespedes, Andrew McCutchen

but I have 4 righties in my rotation.

I think Callaspo slid way to far. He's an average player who can cover 3rd or 2nd. Could be useful in a platoon. I know prospects are shiny but he's a better player right now than a lot of the ones who have been taken.

Well I really wanted Duda but got swooped

yeah gently caress it why not even though I want to be contrarian and say no

Two hours. You don't get extra time when you have back to back picks and I'm pretty sure that's in the OP of the draft thread.
