    • I got it before it was spoiled!

      in semi-related news - do we like doing the actual player picking on the RJ forum vs me setting up a site that manages it? I was considering that as a keeping-busy project while I'm on paternity leave, and although I remember from the last one that I didn't actually have all that much free time or inclination to do useful things, it was an idea. The dumb version would just let people select a player and year and maintain the history thread, but I could also pull in bbref web pages to confirm that you're getting the right year and handle scoring calculations.
      In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

                Your numbering is for shite.

                  • Was anyone looking at Joe Mauer? ... he's only slightly behind Martinez in value.

                        I almost picked him.

                          If I wasn't so ADD and had a thought that could stay in my head for more than 12 seconds, I might have remembered that the 2010s were its own decade and thought to look at such players.

                          Honestly, this is the worst time of the year for me to be doing one of these. It's my busiest time for work with 2016 planning meetings.

                            The last 2 drafts I've sat down and seriously focused on what I'm doing 1 round too late. I probably needed to skip pick Mauer.

                            ... mistakes were made.

                              That's something at least.

                              Really like that band you linked me to. Good stuff.
