Tomorrow is the annual PONY draft, a gathering of mostly RJ members for our annual keeper league auction in Canton, Ohio. This year we'll have 15 teams. The pizza is ordered, Griswold is bringing the pink donuts, and the keepers are locked and loaded (see Google Docs link below if I did it correctly).
There's always a good amount of smack talk so I wanted to kick things off a day early.
Last year the LilDogs paid $12 for a young OF starting at AAA. Everyone scoffed. That guy was Mike Trout. Oops.
A few years ago, Heyelander meant to buy Michael Saunders and bid $2 over the top of someone's $1 bid. He ended up buying some guy named Mike Stanton instead.
There was also the time that Chris Duffy went for $17.
Last year I had the very first pick in the reserve draft. I took Jake Arrieta. Fernando Rodney went 7th.
Last year the first 5 players nominated were: Tulo (44), Kemp (55), Cuddyer (25), Cespedes (21), and Verlander (39).
