You're complaining about Ian Desmond and Chris Sale?!??
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Sunday, 22 March 2015 01:24 (nine years ago) link
Also thank you.
I wouldn't mind any of the other 3 guys either!
― who is dankey kang (Karl Malone), Sunday, 22 March 2015 02:00 (nine years ago) link

ok - keepers are set. check your team page and make sure the "K" is next to the appropriate dude.
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 23 March 2015 18:26 (nine years ago) link
Well, I'm being a little facetious, but some of those dudes need to turn it around from last year, including Desmond who i'm worried is gonna keep striking out more.
― francisF, Wednesday, 25 March 2015 03:04 (nine years ago) link
I'm hard on my guys, that's how i get results
― francisF, Wednesday, 25 March 2015 03:07 (nine years ago) link
2 more days!
draft should be interesting this year with the added NA slot.
― who is dankey kang (Karl Malone), Friday, 27 March 2015 19:24 (nine years ago) link
ya - may bee a lot of minor league guys going later rounds. possibly earlier rounds...and now that you've mentioned it, i'm off to see who yahoo has available in the stashable universe.
ALSO EVERYONE PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK YOUR KEEPER PICKS ARE CORRECT. the interface is set up to make mistakes and my new tiny human, tho adorable, likes to deprive me of sleep. and i love sleep.
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Friday, 27 March 2015 20:13 (nine years ago) link
my keeper picks may be ill-advised, but they are "correct"
― Jimmie Lovefoxxxxxx, Friday, 27 March 2015 22:24 (nine years ago) link
same
therm i recommend catching up on sleep during the draft, i hear autodraft is flawless nothing to worry abt
― johnny crunch, Friday, 27 March 2015 22:47 (nine years ago) link
Fully expecting someone to take Kris Bryant in round two given the combination of hype and NA slot. Won't be me though. I already overpaid for him in a different league.
Also my keepers are OK! Thanks for all the time in, thermo!

i think you need to sub in a fake keeper for teams keeping four, lest they get an extra early round live pick. [/snitch]
― chaki wite (sanskrit), Saturday, 28 March 2015 00:21 (nine years ago) link
Nope - I can put the keeper picks in at the end now; so any team with 4 keepers (there is one) will get an extra round at the end. I accidentally copy/pasted older rules at the opening of the thread there.
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Saturday, 28 March 2015 00:54 (nine years ago) link
My keepers are OK.
― NoTimeBeforeTime, Saturday, 28 March 2015 13:15 (nine years ago) link
ugh, i guess my keepers are ok. i'm forced to choose between Carlos "stuck in middle-relief forever even though my stuff is like Pedro" Martinez and Wilin "my OBP typically hovers around .204 or so" Rosario. guess i'll stick with martinez.
― who is dankey kang (Karl Malone), Saturday, 28 March 2015 14:07 (nine years ago) link

Yep! There's one in Florida. His name is Marcell Ozuna.
― GGGOAT: greatest goat game of all time (Will M.), Saturday, 28 March 2015 22:32 (nine years ago) link
I think he's named Mike.

Every year it's either Pujols or A-Rod. I wouldn't expect this year to be any different!

I am crawling across public transit right now, trying to get home in time. Hopefully I'll make it in time for the first round.

fwiw they finally ditched Flash for what I assume to be HTML5, you should be able to draft on your phone.
― chaki wite (sanskrit), Sunday, 29 March 2015 18:23 (nine years ago) link
you can also draft in-app, i did it last football season for a few rounds at one point and it was fine. a little slow and obviously harder to multitask but totally doable.
― GGGOAT: greatest goat game of all time (Will M.), Sunday, 29 March 2015 18:26 (nine years ago) link
draft room is open!

so my kids decides that right now is the best time to launch herself off the couch for the first time in her young life – currently being consoled by her mother, but may be in and out of the draft since i now feel like a terrible parent.

altho if anyone missed out on drafting a keepable guy for their NA slot, i drafted seager and buxton because i am sooooo clever :S
― GGGOAT: greatest goat game of all time (Will M.), Monday, 30 March 2015 14:55 (nine years ago) link
ha! are we even going to see Seager in the bigs this year?
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 30 March 2015 16:57 (nine years ago) link
wait... you literally have no catcher?!
― AKA Thermo Thinwall (The Cursed Return of the Dastardly Thermo Thinwall), Monday, 30 March 2015 16:58 (nine years ago) link
who knows if we'll see either of them?! but it's a way to use your NA slot that gives you a keeper opportunity!
(plus he's blocked by kendrick, rollins, and uribe, and i guess olivera, and only two of them need to get hurt to create an opportunity, which isn't outside of the realm of possibility)
xp and yes -- no catcher because i don't care to keep a catcher (so why draft one), so i'm picking one up once waivers clear because i have that NA slot which opened a spot on my roster. i'll have one by opening day. #strategy
― GGGOAT: greatest goat game of all time (Will M.), Monday, 30 March 2015 17:01 (nine years ago) link
i can also tell that i'll be in the market to trade for a 2016 27-29 guy next year, because after goldschmidt i've got... jansen, hughes, adams, boxberger, bailey. not really a beautiful list of prime-age heroes. (maybe one of them will stick, we'll see)
― GGGOAT: greatest goat game of all time (Will M.), Monday, 30 March 2015 17:03 (nine years ago) link
i honestly don't understand that logic, tbh. why saddle yourself with a catcher off the junk heap when you could have drafted a better one before before you got bench guys like Cabrera/Walker/Baez? certainly your starting catcher will have more impact than those guys. unless you just really didn't like the option you had at that point? i'm guessing that's it?
