Post by BK METS » Sat Apr 02, 2016 2:43 pm

Back with the thread that started it all. Many years ago, the NFBC boards were hopping with interesting threads and controversial topics. Now its just boring crap like this. Lets get it started with my two main event teams... which one do you think is better (or do you think they both stink? :oops: )

CI - C. Santana
MI - I. Kinsler (9)

Util - J. Lamb
SP - deGrom (3), C. Hamels (6), S. Miller, J. Hammel, J. Nelson, M. Estrada, D. Holland (Wheeler, Bauer)
CL - W. Davis (5), JJ Hoover (Grilli)
Bench - E. Escobar, L. Valbuena

or

(Pitcher heavy team) Draft slot #10

C - S. Vogt, F. Cervelli
1B - L. Duda (10)
2B - D. Gordon (2)
3B - M. Machado (1)
SS - I. Desmond (7)

Feel really good about this team. Knebel getting injured gives me an excuse to take part in the first FAAB too.

Team from the #9 spot is definitely better. Needed a more complete hitter in round 2 for your pitching-heavy team. From both teams, I like:

Manny Machado - (Pick #10)
Kris Bryant - (Pick # 21) What was this league thinking? :?
Yoenis Cespedes (Pick 4.7)
Brian Dozier (Pick 7.9)
Ian Desmond (Pick 7.10)
Billy Hamilton (Pick 8.9)
Kole Calhoun (Pick 9.10)
Marco Estrado
Adam Conley
Hector Santiago (this year's Dallas Kuechel)

Nice drafting, thanks for sharing.

I like the upside, Andy. Not liking the closers. But workable. Nice getting Baustista that late in the 2nd round. He has been going earlier.

BK I also think your team from the nine hole is much better,a big bat in the sixth instead of Matz would have made the second team stronger.

My team from the 4 hole.......

C- Cervelli, C.Perez
1st- Votto (3)
2nd- Panik (17)
SS - Tulo (4)
3rd- Turner (16)
OF - Blackmon (2), Braun (5), Choo (13), Reddick (14), Dyson (19)
DH - Poulffe (18)
CI- Pujols (6)
MI- K. Marte (12)
So - Kershaw (1), Stroman (7), Smyly (10), Severino (11), Volquez (20), Hill (24), Tomlin (21),
Rp- Papelbon (8), Street (9)

Reserve- Pagan, Peraza, Joseph, Gutierrez,
- Niese, Skaggs, Urias

I like my O but need to find one more decent starter. Your thoughts

Really like your draft from the 9-Spot as well, BK METS. I'd add to "like list" above and say that Kinsler at 129 was nice value too. When did you get Rosario?
