Franklin Gutierrez out for entire 2014 season.

Glad he's on all my teams. Now I have a built in excuse as to why I won't ca$h.
Cheers!

If he was on any of your teams then you really don't have a clue of how to play this game.

No Gutz, but I did waste picks on Matt Harvey in a few and aRod in one. All late gambles.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Matt Harvey, A-Rod? Really, you call them late gambles, I would call them wasted roster spots.

Hard to know on Dec 1 whether ARod was a waste or late round value. If Matt Harvey plays even 5 games in September it could make for an interesting finish.

It may require barring him from the stadium, but I think the Mets are going to do their best to protect Matt Harvey from himself.

I heard Mariano Rivera is going to repeat his farewell tour because he heard you drafted him in the 39th round.

If the Yankees are in a pennant race and have their bullpen self destruct and crumble in early September, you really believe they won't be ringing Mo's phone off the hook? Big IF.

I guess I could have used the pick on Matt Thornton, had I known he'd also be in line for Yankee relief innings.

Yup, and if Mark Teixeira gets injured again, I heard Don Mattingly might make a comeback..

The 30s and 40s are the rounds that make a champion... But don't take my word for it, I have never won anything. You won a 12 team OC last year, you are well qualified. Keep going at it... CHEERS!

Yeah, you're right. MLB pitchers (especially Yankees) always stay retired.
Clemens
Pettitte
Favre...oops, wrong NY sport

39th Round... end of story. Good luck!

Good luck with your 39th round steal of Jordan Lyles who brings his 5.59ERA and 1.51WHIP to Coors Field if/when he's called up from AAA.

What was the lesson you taught me using Bryce Harper as an example? That's right...
UPSIDE.
When will I learn?

From what I can see, I drafted Kevin Siegrist in the 39th round of the league you drafted Mariano Rivera. But, you know what, you are right.. Mariano Rivera does have tremendous upside.

Ah, the DC Express league where I got no closers. Right. I suppose I was desperate for saves in that draft.

I was referring to DC01 where I took Rivera as well but a bit later:
Rd 39 Deadheadz - D. Dietrich, BK METS - J. Lyles
Rd 45 Deadheadz - Mo Rivera , BK METS - P. Ciriaco

you're not helping your cause here deadheadz. rivera was one of your BETTER picks in dc1.....

What do you mean, you have no closers... you have Mariano!
