I continue the run on pitchers, praise my good luck, and select Mike Cuellar, Orioles.

Thought he might go first overall.

Cuellar a mild disappointment as a Cub after falling even farther in the first round (#16!) in Leg 35.

yo Bob. you have reason to be pleased but please don't over expect. after all he is not the second coming of 1915 Pete Alexander or 08 Joss. and he's a lefty. If you expect a good solid middle of the rotation starter good for 200+ IP you will be pleased. If you get the 94-95 Maddux, then I screwed up. lol

'69 Mike Cuellar is one of my very favorite pitchers in the entire sim.  He owns.

Oh, I know what I'm getting from Cuellar. There were a couple other guys I was looking at around his tier, but I protected a grand total of 173 innings so quantity is key. He syncs up well with the park I plan to use too, it's just a good fit.

With the last three picks, Seattle, St. Louis and the LA Dodgers come off the board.  Boston was already gone.

Right on schedule - this is about the same time Norris usually finds out where he'll be taking his talents when he doesn't get the early notice that he's staying in Oakland.

Rickey Henderson, Yankees

the curse of the midround pick...

I have shaybee's proxy.  Will post it right at 5pm, as I have to leave right after that.

I may be going to the Astros game, so if I do I will have to make my pick later tonight.

Those of you already off the board, feel free to submit your next keeper at any time.  I already have a couple of them.

By proxy, shaybee (Braves) selects Kevin Mitchell OF - SFG
