Taking adderall durring the draft will require league permission: the 2015 I Love Baseball fantasy league thread!

Hey - I'll allow it!

arrgh just realized today i missed the 15th. so sorry. if you'll still have me, i'll toss them up in a sec

whoa 21 dead in Tunisia. thank you Yahoo News. wait im getting distracted.

ya - because J0rdan is still awol, i've been forced to hold off on inputting our keepers. so you have until this sunday to get your picks in.

Adam Jones 29
Billy Hamilton 24
Jordan Zimmermann 28
Tyson Ross 27
Alex Wood 24

maybe temporarily change the title of the thread to "J0RDAN! J01RDAN! J012DAN! J0123DAN! J01234DAN! J0123456DAN! J0123457DAN! J012345678DAN! J0123456789DAN!"?

(i've always kind of wanted to be a mod but this is why it can never happen)

hey draftwise will all these keepers be off the board at the start of the draft or do we need to put them all on the do not draft list?

they will not be available. i will basically be manually entering them in the last 5 rounds of the draft before it starts.

cool okay thanks

give me j0rdan's team how much money do i win y/n

you win respect and admiration. or at least one of those.

possibly neither.

j.q. higgins - are you keeping yu darvish?

omg sorry, this shit really creeped up on me, ok:

SALE
KIMBREL
SANTANA
DAVIS, Chris
DESMOND
...seem to be the pack of losers I'm forced to trot out there.

i will also be changing my team name to Inanimate Carbon A-Rod

You're complaining about Ian Desmond and Chris Sale?!??

Also thank you.

I wouldn't mind any of the other 3 guys either!

actually, could i change out darvish for longoria?

Sure

ok - keepers are set. check your team page and make sure the "K" is next to the appropriate dude.

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.

I'm hard on my guys, that's how i get results

2 more days!

draft should be interesting this year with the added NA slot.

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.

my keeper picks may be ill-advised, but they are "correct"

same

therm i recommend catching up on sleep during the draft, i hear autodraft is flawless nothing to worry abt

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]

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.

My keepers are OK.

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.

do we know the draft order yet?

yes.

gee i wonder who first pick will be. the mind boggles.

kyle farnsworth upset pick?

any young sluggers available?

any young sluggers available?

Yep! There's one in Florida. His name is Marcell Ozuna.

I think he's named Mike.

yung sthlugger

gee i wonder who first pick will be. the mind boggles.

kyle farnsworth upset pick?

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

WELL WELL WELL I GUESS YOU"LL JUST BE HELLA SURPRISED THEN

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.

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.

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.

priorities dude

rub some dirt on it

now my internet is being a total dickbag
