Brett Wallace ???...unf'n believable : )
I had him crossed off my list as taken...Nice sneaky late round 20+ HR 60 + ribs - .250 BA and 500 + AB's Buck

Thanks. You had me worried there for a second that he was taken. I had to check the first page of the draft thread. I've been going off a spreadsheet I created so I don't pay attention to that and sometimes I miss a pick.

I don't honestly believe that Billy Hamilton will play in the majors this year untill September, if then, nor am I convinced he can hit, but his potential fantasy impact is so huge and the available MI's available so blah that I decided to take him.

I tend to agree with you. The question is, how fast can he become competent in CF? If any of the Reds' outfielders get hurt they would probably want to move Choo to a corner spot and put a good CF out there.

Sorry bout that buck - Wallace was the second time I had crossed a target off my list that was still available so I'm pretty pissed at myself....glad you got heem : )

Anyway - Arencibia - very surprised JP was still available after the earlier C run - I don't believe 20 bombs and 60 ribbies from he ass end of the BJ lineup is not an unreasonable expectation...a .230/.240 BA is tolerable with the other counting stats for a C...Yes?

Here's hoping that Gutierrez can stay healthy long enough to deliver a 15/15 season...

I thought about Arencibia when I took Ellis, but I decided I preferred a guy who will give me .270 and 10-15 HR over a guy who will give me 20 HR but could hit .210.

I tried to PM Fantastico but his inbox is full.

Despite what the Red Sox are saying, I'm sure Gomes will end up in a platoon, but hopefully he'll still be good for 18-20 home runs, which is nice to find almost 350 picks in.

Oh man......I really had no clue how much raping and pillaging had taken place with CLOSERS until I started looking for one
LMAO...talk about late to the party.....daaaaaaaamn!

Bummer - I'm surprised Iwakuma lasted this long - kinda thought he had fallen in a crack...BJE rooting around possibly dug up a nice late round SP.
