Yeah, I was thinking. You know, that thing where I look at numbers and figure out who the better player is to draft?

[The Emperor Fabulous]

So to recap:

I went with Julio Lugo
So did Guy
I made fun of guy for taking Lowe (SP) in the Daylies
Snoopy finds something funny...

Haha...ha?

[Ninot]

I'm goin to bed I think.
Anyone wanna handle my pick, or would ya'll like to wait untill i come back around 1pm EDT tommorow?

Two points of order:

I went with a much better version of Julio Lugo, and
I did not take Lowe in the daily league.

[snoopy369]

Ninot, I can do your pick if you want.

In the Daily thread, I noted that you 'pulled a Guynemer' by picking a 3-position player, given Guy and I had a conversation about 3 position players. Then here you pick him again, and then Guy picks another 3-tool player, and implies he was following you. So I think that's funny

(I find the Lugo choice here funny, also, as it's much too early for him. But whatever.)

[The Emperor Fabulous]

I get it.

But the Lugo choice: just wait for the season to start. You'll see. As he's hitting 2nd in front of Ortiz and Manny, the runs should keep climbing. Plus the added bonus of putting him in any of 4 positions.

[Fistandantilus]

Lugo is going to bat 1st. Not that it changes anything just for the sake of precision

While the Yankee hater in me hopes you are right, I'm glad you took Lugo while leaving the NL batting champ on the board.

[snoopy369]

Ahh, knew there was something wrong.

He plays for PIT, not ATL. Read that statement, went up to read your pick, said Hmm, I know the champ was a Pirate, so this isn't right...



Some part of me doubts he can repeat or even get close, but... who knows. I'm happy with Zimmerman, particularly given my perfectly fine position at 2b/ss, but Sanchez is an intriguing possibility wrapped in an enigma Also, you are going to have a team that you rotate from one position to another all year just to confuse people...

Probably increases his value... more steals that way, if ye olde Boston manager can get his mind around the idea of stealing bases on a highly regular basis...

[Fistandantilus]

Yup, Lugo has already been caught stealing third base in spring training, isn't he?

The CS category is due to a rapid increase in Boston let's hope the SB one follows..

I picked Jimmy Rollins almost simultaneously last year in both leagues.

Ahhh... and that is why I shouldn't draft when I've been up for 24 hours in the NICU.
