        The league average for on-base percentage has varied considerably over time; in the modern era it is around .340
        Joey Votto .416
        Dustin Pedroia .382
        Andrew McCutchen .377
        Evan Longoria .376
        Matt Holliday .386
        Andrew McCutchen .377

        Billy Beane ball. They have to get on base before any other good stat comes into play. I'm keying off of OBP, for better or worse.

        Ozzy, this is the stat that led me to say that I had Fielder and Votto rated ahead of Pujols, and naturally Miguel Cabrera with his baseball leading .426.

            I just watched Money Ball tonight, good movie.

            I never really go in with much of a strategy. I guess I generally go for balance. So far though I've been kind of pressed for time when drafting so haven't really crunched the numbers like usual. So I've been going from the gut a bit more. And... drafting lots of Tigers and Nats...

                    First bit of stats for the year! Since I keep track of things every year in the same spreadsheet I can now compare how various players fare from year to year. It is interesting to track players who slowly decline, slowly rise, or jump around wildly every year.

                        That was a huge steal. He went back stronger after an injury plagued year.

                            Yeah, I did very well with my mid-round picks last year. Chase Utley at #1 was a dud though

                              I'm not going to say BAPAY or gripe this year, other than right now. There are spots where it could go smoother.

                                Since you've been real good about not griping this year (appreciated) I'll be nice to you and give you the one stat you care about the most: average draft time!


                                Here is the list of how many minutes it takes for each person to draft. Since JD went first I didn't count him for the first round. Now, these numbers require several caveats. Obviously it is much easier for illram and JD who have to pick half as much as the rest of us. Also, I wasn't 100% sure how to handle people leaving lists. If the list was left with someone nearby in the draft order who would post their own picks as well as the picks of those with a list I credited the time to the person posting and gave 0 minutes to the person who left the list. When someone left a list with someone who wasn't picking for himself I put the whole time elapsed on the list giver instead of giving them zero. Obviously time passed there and that needs to be ackonoledged. And heck, if the list giver was smart they would have given it to someone who also had a pick which would have probably sped things forward. In any event, I indicated who left a list for whom, so you can reach your own conclusions. Finally, a raw minute count isn't entirely fair since we do all need to sleep. We shouldn't judge someone for taking 9 hours to pick when the last pick was at midnight.

                                But, with all those caveats out of the way, here is the list:
