Anyone take part in a mock draft on here?

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

 

Curses! Damn you!

 

Yeah, I was really surprised he lasted to me. Especially with all of us worshipping the ground he walks on, and hits homers on, and strikes out on (three true outcome puns are the best!!!).

 

If this weren't a 5x5 league, I would have grabbed him already.

 

Yeah, his average is going to hurt, but given my lack of HR from 3 of the first 4 picks, I'm gonna have to suck it up and deal with it. He was 80 points under his expected BABIP last year and had a horrible end of the season. Plus hes working with Brook Jacoby who he worked with in the minors when his K rate was manageable and had a 300 average. Can't hurt.

 

We may have to swing a trade when the draft is over.

I was thinking the same...we'll just have to see how our teams shake out.

[nilodnayr]

There is an interesting trend with this draft...5 of the 13 starting pitchers have been taken on the 10 wrap around picks (not counting the #1 pick). And at every wrap except for Vance's second a pitcher has been taken with one of the two picks (only after Vance chose 2 pitchers on his first wrap around). Expand that to 3 wrap arounds (ie 10, 11, 12 and 13, 14, 15) and you capture another 3 of the starters taken. And of the remaining 5 starters taken, 4 of them ocurred in the mini starter run midway through the 4th round.

 

Just some interesting psychology there. Seems as though people have their favorite pitcher and are afraid to lose him whether it be because they dont have another pick in a long time or that he will be taken in a pitching run. Which, leads to a general feeling that so far the draft has been pitching heavy with some noticeable reaches.

I thought I may get chance at him in the next round. Maybe we can make some kind of deal after the draft.

Yay, my turn. Sorry, but y'all are going to have to wait a couple hours... my list is at home, but I can bet its going to be a pitcher.

Most definitely...I was happy to get in on the front end of it as I think there are 4 elite closers and was happy to get one of them. Unfortunately for everyone else, they are all off the board.

This is a Cubs league, so I can't really expect to grab him in a really late round. And if he's as good as projected, he's a top 5 fantasy pitcher.

so far

 

1B - Teixeira

SS - Tejada

OF - Beltran

OF - Rocco

 

SP - Hamels

SP - Sheets

 

I like it.

 

Looks pretty good, but I am weary of Rocco's BABIP being 62 points higher than expected last year and the health of your pitchers. Not that I like my team any more, but I'm just saying.

 

OF-Crawford

1B-Papi

SS-Rollins

C-McCann

OF-Dunn

 

RP-Ryan

 

IMO, most starters have been over drafted or drafted appropriately and I just couldnt get in on it because of where my pick was or that I left myself without enough power and had to take Dunn in the 5th. Interestingly enough, the two starters I would have taken instead of him are still on the board. I also drafted McCann selfishly because in my real draft Im going to take a much lower tier catcher, but wanted see where you all would pick the ones I have my eyes on.

I'm a big fan of my team thus far in all offensive aspects (steals are a bit lacking, but I may pick some up soon...) and two potentially dominating pitchers. From a power perspective, I like my chances of getting 12 points in the HR and RBI categories with guys who hit for a really good average and will score around 100 runs.

 

1B: Howard

2B: Roberts

OF: Manny

OF: Bay

 

SP: Felix (I may have reached with him, but his high ceiling was too much to pass up when I really need a starter)

RP: Wagner

[Drew Doughty]

2B - Utley

3B - Zimmerman

OF - Sizemore

OF - Wells

 

I need power. I'm happy about everything else.

 

SP - Halladay

SP - Lackey

 

I'm very happy with my start here.

[baseball7897]

3B - Wright

3B - Atkins

2B/CF/3B - Figgins

 

SP - Carpenter

SP- Haren

SP - Matsuzaka

 

I like what I have.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

So far, I'm happy, but there's a lot left to do.

 

1b Pujols

SS Young

OF Dye

 

SP Zambrano

SP Peavy

 

I really like my pitching thus far, and having Pujols to anchor my offense will help. I need to add at least one legitimate SB guy and try to find a sleeper at thirdbase. I have my eye on a couple that might work.
