When all else fails raid a division rival.  I'll take Jimmy Rollins SS from the Phillies.  Phillies are now off the board.

I am going to go a little different this time around and take  Bernie Williams from the crosstown rival Yankees.  Yankees are off the board.

This is easily the strangest draft I've seen in this league.


e: it's always nice when two guys you had no intention of using are guys who are drafted from you.

There is one particular guy who I didn't think would last even this long, now I'm wondering if he might have a legit chance to fall to me.

well since I now can't take the guy I wanted and this guy is still out here, we'll go back in time with a rule v favorite and take:

Joe Torre St Louis Cards

Any bonus points if we keep viper's guy away from the Yankees?

Cubs were pleased to see that Mike Cuellar, Orioles was unprotected from the draft for the first time, and now welcome him to the Windy City.

Nice get.  He would have looked good in Cincy, too.

I almost took Cuellar with the  first pick. Schmidt was just too tempting.

Cuellar was who I was hoping would fall.  Shocked to see him exposed over Moose, let alone fall this far.  One of my favorite pitchers in the entire sim.

yeah, I debated over that one, however I wanted to stick with the "power arm" theory & Sheets doesn't walk many
