I'm still pretty sure that I'll get passed in enough of the wrong categories to finish behind Johnny.

Good chance I'll not be able to catch/hold off El D. I have found 2 pitchers that give me a lead, but I suspect I'll lose more points then he will. COuld come down to Revo's pick for the 2nd draft in a rowOriginally posted by heyelander View Post---------------------------------------------

It was actually a double bad beat, because Pogues declared he was also about to pick Cicotte. I'm not sure what was worse, having my draft implode before my eyes or miss the chance to soul-crush Pogues?Comment

I had a better pick for TS Garp as a prediction, by about 3 points at this stage. Helps me out though!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?Comment

Sorry guys, been away all weekend. I tried to find a bit of time, but couldn't justify it. Be home around 6/7.
7th sounds about right for me the way things were heading. Interestingly I estimated 165pts to be the ceiling for my strategy if everything went perfectly, so I chose poorly there. Still, always better to gamble.
Well done to Slasher and ElD, I figured it would be pretty close between them. Thought Eld had a slight edge, but there wasn't much in it.
... I'm not sure if I didn't enjoy this draft because I was out of it from early, or because of the format. The later probably. I'm finding out that I hate drafts that don't have a handicap (letters, decades etc). They become so boring and formulaic after a while. It takes so much of the strategy and skill out of the game with players can just pick the best available.Comment
