Hacko aint wasting any time ... I'm as unprepared for this draft as any draft I've ever done!

Glad I'm pick 11th ... and I won't be pressuring anyone to pick quickly!

[hacko]

I wasn't prep but waiting won't make a difference. Cobb seem like the natural pick in the 1 spot

Yeah I suppose the first few picks are no-brainers. As Feral said above, they may be seriously OP considering the fall off.

[hacko]

I almost pick Walter I have never had a stud pitcher in VD . But I went with old tendencies and picked a batter.

Dangerous going with expensive pitchers ... more chance they get injured and screw your whole season.

With eld right behind me I had to draft Cobb to protect my rear!!!!!

Cobb will have good trading value if nothing else.

2:21 am pacific, and it's just johnny, me and 60 spiders on the website.

It wasn't me, it was just one of my tabs.

[frae]

Well shit I have no idea. I was hoping one of those two would somehow fall. I am now looking at a list where I can't even decide who I have as the top pitcher or hitter left let alone the top value. My head hurts already.

[Pogues]

So, stupid question of the day.

What are the positions we are choosing? 14 hitters is a bit vague.

[johnnya24]

There's gonna be a huge fall off at some point in this first round, and I've a funny feeling I'm standing right on the precipice

[johnnya24]

Not stupid at all.

Last draft we had 15 hitters and we used: C, C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, CI, MI, OF, OF, OF, OF, OF, UT, UT

I guess we should cut one of the UT slots. If we cut a catcher slot we better do it damn quick because that will affect draft strategy massively.

Yeah, definitely 2 catchers. C, C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, CI, MI, OF, OF, OF, OF, OF, UT, UT seems fine. I think that's what we used for the last draft of this kind, so that's what I'm working from.

Fixed.
