    Pfft, I got Dee Gordon (strangely) for my minor league contract 2B. SB title is in the bag. Tried to pick Scott Podsednik but couldn't spell his last name.

      Hey now! I did set myself to auto a couple times. It is just difficult to plan 4 or 5 picks ahead when I'm going to bed. The 2am timeout is kind of rough for east coast people. Which is compounded by having a west coast person after me, so if I pick at 645am then they are going to time out too.

      • Really confident that Ronnie Dawson just sealed my win. More importantly, I finally got a UT! Eat it suckers!
        If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

          I was just joshin'! It wasn't even an issue at all.

          We really did a great job of moving this thing along. After Revo broke our cherry with a timeout in round 1, I thought we were headed for a far more frustrating draft than we actually ended up having.

                Revisiting this one since it was lost in the shuffle - is this something I should take up with nfbc help?

                  Should definitely be OF and not UT.

                    Looks like Harold Ramirez is mistakenly UT only as well.

                    That's what should apply to him, since he only appeared in 3 games.

                      nfbc support in the chat says he's fixed, although it wont change on our draft page (which is fine)

                      • Gotta really thank Todd for coming up with the idea and setting it all up, as well as Tom and Greg. It was a lot of fun, and very helpful blowing the dust off of my player knowledge. Kudos gentlemen!

                          • I still think Lucky drafted the best team

                              I honestly have no sound opinions on who had the best draft. But, I will say that Doig by far took the most players that I was considering.

                                My spreadsheet has Lucky comfortably ahead. And me in about 8th, which is definitely not where you want to be on your own tracking sheet.
