Thanks for the quick pick, chewy3344.

I will sitemail jfranco77 and ronthegenius.

Do we have a team ready to go for Ron?

Yes, I have the team to start Round 4 ready to go.

I know this feels like a frustrating delay, but think of it this way: we would be waiting for jfranco77 to make his pick in Rd 4 right now, anyway.

So hopefully, once he is able to repick for Grant Jackson, ronthegenius will be up for two quick picks back-to-back, and then we'll get jfranco77 to make his Rd 4 pick, and we won't really be delayed much beyond some additional roster analysis.

Guys, we have a problem.

Unfortunately, ledfoot selected Dave McNally in 1968, but he posted the 1969 Orioles link. This might not have been significant, but it actually is, since Jim Palmer did NOT play for the Orioles in 1968 but DID in 1969.

I didn't see these picks until just now, but I think we need chewy3344 to make a valid selection from the 1968 Orioles team.

So sorry for the mixup! I forgot to change the date back and I missed it due to old eyes and working off a small phone and tablet.

It's all good. We're still working out the kinks here. New concept and all.

Like I said in my last post, because of where we are in the draft (end of Rd 3), I don't think this really costs us that much time, since the same two owners will be repicking and then turning around and making their Rd 4 picks.

OK, let's go with 1968 Tom Murphy, P from the Angels

Awesome. Ron you are up.

Yuck. Much preferred my other pick.
