I really like your last 4 picks...save Peralta. Although I think its completely defensable given that you chose him at the end of the 15th round. Looking at his 2005 and 2006 numbers in the context of his professional career, 2005 can easily be explained by an abberant HR/FB% (18%) and lucky BABIP (32 points higher than expected) Amazingly his BABIP was actually lucky last year too (19 points higher than expected). I can only think of two shortstops on the board that I'd rather have and one is a bigger gamble and the other has a much lower upside. -
Haha, I agree. I prefered his 05 over his 06 when he was just trying to put the bat on the ball rather than swinging out of his socks at every AB. THT has an interesting article on hitting pitchers up today.

Julio Lugo, pick 118. Bill James predicts 277/11/85/55/26 Josh Barfield, pick 177. Bill James predicts 289/13/72/63/22 I really wanted Lugo, but I'll take Barfield. Note: James is the most optimistic of the projections for Barfield. -

draft to be televised
nilodnayr replied to abuck1220's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
That's how MLB TV/MiLB.com did it last year. Imagine how horrid BBTN coverage would be. I don't know if the BBTN crew (save Gammons) knows who Matt Murton is, let alone Alex Gordon, let alone Price, Wieters, or Brackman. 2 years ago in a pre-season episode Kruk said that RJ would get 30 wins (in one season). Yeah, thats the guy who I want to hear indepth analysis about highschoolers from. -

nilodnayr replied to Mephistopheles's topic in Fantasy Sports
I think it's because once you got past Mauer, Martinez and McCann, there really isn't that big a difference between the next 10 catchers. I saw three guys go off the board just now, and there are still at least four guys that I'd be fine with having as my starter. Ohh, I totally agree. Like I said before, I only took McCann because I wanted to see how far some of the lower tier guys would fall so I could get a good guage in my real draft. My collusion comment wasn't an accusation, but moreso gamesmanship in order to convince other players to start taking catchers so I would have a better chance of the guys I want falling to me. :D As far as not caring about who my catcher is, in my league that is a sure way to guarantee yourself a very small chance of placing in the $. -

Probably my most favorite game of the Dusty Era. Certainly the best game of 2006. I was at that game in the CF bleachers, it was insane...unfortunately the next 17 games I attended we lost. -

FWIW, PECOTA predicts Fielder will be better offensively than Lee THIS year. Of course when you take defense into consideration the scales tip in Lee's favor. Anyone have a guess when Braun will be called up?

A-Rod in 08?
nilodnayr replied to Banedon's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
If he gets traded, does he still have the option to opt-out? If you trade for A-Rod, and then use 2007 to rebuild, he'll just opt out rather than stay with a losing team-and then you lose Z for nothing. Per Cots Interesting on that second one... And the MLBPA wouldn't approve of him just giving up his opt-outs for nothing. And I don't think theres any way to get around the fact that he can opt to become a FA the offseason after a mid-contract trade. But of course he has a no trade clause so he'd have to approve coming here in the first place. That's true-which means that frost's scenario probably wouldn't work. I can't see any way that A-Rod would approve a trade to a team that was in rebuilding mode. Well, he did say it would be the FIRST thing he'd do...so maybe you could convince him to waive the no trade clause, but if things take a downturn the next season, he could leave. -

I'd start by questioning the Funky Bunch...in retrospect, what a funny name for a band.
