Looks like Yogi Berra and Allie Reynolds were the big targets this round!  And after not having any ties in the second round, we had a tie for Monte Irvin this round - so he stays in the pool.

FOURTH ROUND RESULTS

If a player you chose is listed in black ink next to your name, he is yours.
If a player you chose is listed in red ink next to your name, then someone outbid you for him.
If a player you chose is listed in blue ink, then there was a tie for the high bid. He is still available, but you CANNOT list him in any subsequent round.

The Monte Irvin Sweepstakes continues! - LOL.

The Monte Irvin Sweepstakes is finally over.  For some other bidding excitement, check out the battle for Bob Friend in this most recent round.  Charlie Keller was also the target of a lot of money.

Can't figure out why Calhoop really, really, really wanted Sandy Consuegra so badly.  Calhoop, are you trying to make headway with his daughter or something?  LOL.

Based on the number of players that are on my roster that no other owner bid on either I know something you guys don't or I'm up ***** creek.....anyone have a paddle for the ***** Creek Aces ?

That is not a very good guide (being the only one to bid on someone) - Mickey Mantle and Ted Williams only got ONE bid.
