Thanks, Ozzy. An ... interesting choice to be sure, but it's a choice

[OzzyKP]

Thanks, Ozzy. An ... interesting choice to be sure, but it's a choice

Yea... Probably first pitcher he thought of while in class.

Will he get a chance to reconsider once he gets out of class? I assume there won't be much of a rush for Wang so it shouldn't foul up things too much I hope.

[The Emperor Fabulous]

From the last two picks, I take it your friend is just thinking of baseball players he knows. Does he know about the player rankings on Yahoo?

[snoopy369]

Yea... Probably first pitcher he thought of while in class.

Will he get a chance to reconsider once he gets out of class? I assume there won't be much of a rush for Wang so it shouldn't foul up things too much I hope.

Hmmmm, as long as he takes someone not taken by that point I don't have a problem with it, and we generally allow it as long as it's not all the time; but it's up to Berz.

[snoopy369]

Ozzy, for your and your friend's reference, some top pitchers (in order of O-Rank on Yahoo) that are not terrible choices:
Jake Peavy (SD)
Dan Haren (ARI)
Francisco Liriano (MIN)
Chad Billingsley (LAD)
The top Yankee pitcher is probably Joba Chamberlin, unless you want a true RP (Mariano).

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yeah, Wang is a very strange choice. I suggest we let him re-pick.

[Berzerker]

EPW is up, if Capy wants someone else when he's had a chance to use yahoo for research (u havent done this yet?) then he can take another available player. Do it quick Capy before too many more players are taken, check the draft thread every day and leave someone a list if you cant be around to make your pick.

Capy, do you know where to find the player ranks for our league? The instructions have been posted in this thread. Click 'players' below the transaction list on our league page and use the filter to research different positions. The "rank" column is the player's ranking according to our specific stats. That matters, dont rely on some other criterion.

[SlowwHand]

If a repick occurs and Chien-Ming Wang ends up going something like 25-3, it's your asses.

[Berzerker]

Capy can take him if he wants, or he can let him slide a round. I'm sure Wang wont be going anywhere real soon. But if Capy hasn't been using yahoo for his research we gotta change that asap or his team will get shredded.

I suggest we take a break from drafting and get this straightened out, I dont want a bunch of picks going by before Capy can re-pick

[Imran Siddiqui]

Did you miss the part that W-L doesn't matter in this league .

[Imran Siddiqui]

I suggest we take a break from drafting and get this straightened out, I dont want a bunch of picks going by before Capy can re-pick

Seeing as he was going to BAPAY at 5ish, can we straighten this out soon?

[snoopy369]

We've already lost an awful lot of time, can we just move on and let him repick if/when he gets in? It's not like that many picks will happen.

[Berzerker]

alright, pick away
