Cla Meredith - Padres...

That takes the Padres off the board.

So, sweet, I don't get an answer to my question about waiting until later, head to practice, & end up getting skipped & losing out on a guy I wanted & would have been there. I thought I sent a Proxy pick, oh well

I'll be picking shortly

All in all it's my fault, I thought my sitemail was sent with some proxies - my bad fellas

I'll try someone I haven't yet - we will welcome a rare LH to the Cubs staff - Mad Bumgarner - Giants

Wow... this might be the first time ever that I didn't get a single player stolen that I had penciled in to my pre-draft roster. Despite the Astros losing Ryan, Wilson, Altuve, Keuchel and Dierker, I has always assumed they would be taken and never considered using them.

I planned all along to add a 3B (Rolen), SS (O.Smith) and C (Posada), but let the drafting determine which position I would take in each round. It's never worked out that well for me in past drafts. Now watch me go 78-84.

that is awesome schwarze! & true to the past drafts, I lost NOBODY from the Cubs, probably not a good thing to have zero interest in any players on my team, but I protected the usual, & think I had a solid draft, adding a much needed SS (Larkin) a C (Simmons) & a much needed LH starter (Mad Bum). Like you, I anticipate 62-100, lol

My team is ready. I'll have the league number out shortly. We also lost no one in Pittsburgh, which isn't a huge surprise.

That sounds ominous...

Be afraid, AL West. Be very afraid.

"Be careful what you ask for. You might get it."

Looks like we're 16/24 at the moment.

Giants are one of the few teams with cap issues in this theme. Core team is set, spending way too much time figuring out the bit parts.

I actually had mild cap issues with the Diamondbacks this spin, which I'm taking as the sign of a successful draft.
