  • Curious as to why GITH was skipped in the draft room, he made his 3rd round pick as far as I could see.

      Dunno...if I were going to gamble on a player falling of the group you drafted plus Fielder, it'd be Fielder. I'd love to give you some crap, but there's nothing wrong with either of your picks.

        I was the original cause of that and reverted it, so he's next up. I checked the box on his autodraft to make sure he didn't have some players sitting there, which he didn't; he must have yesterday, because the clock ran for 8 hours and then at the end gave him his pick, I'm guessing because he hadn't checked the box. He's on the clock.

        • We are all caught up with picks at this point.

          • I agree this is taking an awful long time. Is this typical of this draft or is it slower than usual

              Much slower than usual...people just aren't paying attention at this point, and it's only the 4th round. I get that folks have things to do, but if that's the case, set up a queue and let the draft room pick your top player left.

              • Sorry guys. I made my 4th pick my Internet will be back up tomorrow night

                  Happy to oblige. I was out all day but just kept it on auto-pick since I've gotten home. Had Votto, J-Hey and Calhoun at the top of my queue so I was right on.

                  • This has got to be the slowest slow draft I've ever done. It's like watching paint dry. Doesn't help that I've got to wait 40 picks between turns.

                      Yeah, pretty slow. Wonder if it's just because it's the weekend. I'm smack in the middle, 21 picks between turns so won't be as bad.
                      M-F between 9-5 is the worst time for me to make picks so I'll apologize now if I take longer during that timeframe.

                        I'm glad to hear Votto was on your list. I wasn't sure where people valued him after his awful season. I thought about him in the last round and was right to think it was too early.
                        I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.

                        • One advisory: if you leave the box checked and all your players off your list gone, it may skip you. I'll try to find out more. I put Santanna in for Ty.

                          • everyone should be making a queue, or commit to check 4 times a day, come on guys

                              Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?
