Do you get a chance to negotiate with a player whose option you declined prior to the open free agency period?

Yes, he goes to your FA list.   Doesn't mean he'll sign but he'll be listed.

My wife last night: "Are you going to get up with me early to watch the Royal Wedding next week?"
Me: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.  (stop, catch breath).  HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

Would your wife get a similar response if she asked you the same question?

My wife knows better than to even ask.

Are you super pumped for the NFL draft?
4/18/2011 11:43 AM
Nope.  Goodell killed it by making the first round on Thursday.   I used to have a cook-out on Saturdays for it.  6-10 of us.  Beer and steaks.

Why do you feel like you need an excuse for beer and steaks?
4/18/2011 11:48 AM
I don't really.  But my friends need a reason to tell their wives.    Seems some of them aren't fond of "No, I'm not doing yard work today.  I'm going over to Mike's to start drinking at 1"     It goes much better for them if they say "I'm going over to Mike's to watch the NFL draft."   Wives aren't interested and they understand it happens once a year.

Ever stare at a prospect with all splits 70 and above except for control...which is 18...and think "gawdamn. GAWDAMN."

Nope.  There's no way that turd gets near my team.

You don't even take a flyer with a lower pick?
4/18/2011 7:35 PM
I only rank players who I think can contribute at the BL level.  18 control ain't that.
4/18/2011 8:12 PM
Hold on; you, if I remember correct (and I think I am) you, and I, rank for sure, probable, maybe, could if there's a ditr boost. You don't think 18 control getting a possible bump to 40 or 50 something with 80s and 90s everywhere else is worth tacking at the end?
4/18/2011 9:32 PM
I stopped ranking "if there's a ditr boost" and added "playoff specialty player".
4/18/2011 9:41 PM
Doesn't DIAH rank the "will be great fielders in a pitcher's park but sport a less than a .600 OPS" up near the top?
