I plan on doing my part to keep this bad boy MOVING

Too funny.

OK Rockit....lesson #2.

Check the picture size.

If you pick a poster sized picture, it won't fit on the screen.

Stick to pics 700 x 700 or less.

And Rockit finally breaks the string.

He's the 1st drafter to have taken both a hitter & a pitcher.

He's also the 1st to wreck the boards w/ a pic.

Gekko · Post by **Gekko** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 6:46 am

next 2 picks should be coming soon

Alright...i boiled it down to 2 pitchers. one is an all-around good guy. the other one dominates one category and is "okay" in the other ones.

i'm going in a different direction than last draft and i will select the all-around guy. his name...

Ron Guidry

1978

Are there any catchers left worth drafting. If it wasn't for my dad being 1/2 hour late for lunch, I would have had the pick for you guys at 12:45 instead of 1:15.... Lot of big name pitchers are OFF THE BOARD.

Great pick.... take him off the top of our queue

I'm actually a little perturbed that you catcher whores let Gekko pair Pedro up with Lightning.

Mark, I think you made the right choice between the two. Guidry matches up better with Pedro than your other choice.

Yikes.....tell me about it Ken. Between catchers and stud aces, already pretty barren only 2 rounds into this draft.

[/QUOTE]That's why I'm not happy that you and others are pairing stud pitchers with stud pitchers.....I'm trying to get an edge here!!!!

Glenn I am kind of surprised you didn't grab Seaver with your pick, but the Maddux year was a little better. I was counting on Maddux being gone by the time the pick got back to me and was praying that Seaver was still available.

Pete takes Gaylord Perry, 1972.

DOUGHBOYS · Post by **DOUGHBOYS** » Sat Nov 19, 2011 7:51 am

Someone do Gaylord in a Giants and Padres uni!

What a great character!

After reading his book, I became hooked on Coke with peanuts. Good stuff.
