NSB2 Expansion Draft

[cbbryan]

For the first of my two picks in a row.....

 

 

A-Roids select:

 

Cameron Maybin - OF - Marlins

 

Didn't see you here and already put Maybin and Zimmerman on your roster.

 

That's cool. BTW, how did you like my list? :D

 

Much better than most picks I've seen so far.

 

We'll see how many I actually get. My actual top 5 were already on other teams.

 

Your actual Top 5? On a submitted list, or just your 5 top Minor Leaguers in your mind?

 

The list I sent you was the list of favorites that are not on a roster. My actual top 5 would be a bit different if I could have anyone. You and the Red Sox guy had quite a few I wouldn't mind having.

I'm always looking for a trade.

Cubbiebum...

 

Make your pick so I can got to sleep...

[CubbieBum]

He won't be a prospect for long but as I see it I get a possible major roster player before anyone else can actually draft one. If you're wondering I'm talking about Samardzija.

I was deciding between taking a true prospect or taking a technical prospect that really isn't anymore.

[Hosak8]

Problem is that a guy like Shark is like a Rule 5 guy in this kind of league. Loses minor league eligibility in only 22 innings, and will take more than those 22 to become any sort of fantasy factor.

22 2/3 innings thank you. I know its not long but my approach with minors will be to have ones that are most ready to step up to the bigs. So many top prospects don't pan out and so many unknowns do. Because of this I don't value minor players a whole lot. Its a hit or miss. I'm extremely active when I do fantasy sports so I'm fairly confident I can grab minor players who are dominating and yet unowned. Plus there are a ridiculous amount of minor league players who show lots of potential.

[Hosak8]

Kingsport's picks are in.

 

Dan Uggla, 2B, Fla

Alcides Escobar, SS, Mil

 

The draft is now up to date, and Canuckophiles has a little under 2 hours to make his next pick.

Escobar was the one I was debating taking before Samardz.

[Hosak8]

Canuckophiles miss their cutoff time. KPT selects Carlos Carrasco, Phi.

 

Canuckophiles can make their selection any time, and Big City Sliders are on the clock at 2:35 CST.

[Clem Fandango]

I'm gonna take SS Tim Beckham, Tampa Bay Rays

[CubbieBum]

I'm gonna take SS Tim Beckham, Tampa Bay Rays

 

Was hoping he would make it back to me. Thats who I targeted as a possible third pick.

[Hosak8]

I'm gonna take SS Tim Beckham, Tampa Bay Rays

 

Got it. Why the break from your Minor League list that you sent me? Do I need to disregard your list, or is it only in the case that you might miss your pick?

Yeah, that was just an emergency list. And since then I did a bit more research. I was close to picking a few other guys who were on that list, mainly the ones who were closer to MLB call ups, but I figured with Beckham's position and potential, it'd be wise to draft him. I think some of the players on my list might fall back to me, so I'll be happy with that

KyleJRM is up for 3 of the next 7 picks, including the next two (so please don't get too far away.)

 

Cubbiebum and cbbryan, you can each finish out your drafts tonight, if you'll make a pick and stick close for a few minutes following.

[Clem Fandango]

Does anyone know if he's gonna log on eventually?

He's typically a late-nighter. I just hope its not another 24-hour no-show.
