sorry for the length. had to memorize the poem in high school.
As did I.  Reading that again was a weird pre-WIS flashback.

Losing Aurilia hurt and since the Giants don't have any other reasonable replacements at SS, we'll steal from a division mate.  Rafael Furcal - Dodgers

This probably won't hurt my division rival too much, as he appears to have his OF already set, but we've always liked Andre Dawson - MON/WSH

You monster. I knew I should have protected him.

I think you meant to direct your ire at moneybonn, as it would have been difficult for you to protect an Expos outfielder;-)

Argh. Yes. I'm sorry sonfonion, moneybonn is my enemy, not you. My stupid phone can be blamed for this mistake.

if Spoon doesn't pick tonite, I will need a proxy for tomorrow. can someone help out if necessary. daytime drafts suck for me as I have no computer access during the work day.

thanks for picking tonite spoon. y'all out there know I always love to upset the apple cart and that's probably why I don't win very much. everyone who guffawed at my legendary picks of Cleon Jones, Ralph Garr and Rico Carty will have a new name to ponder; a name I don't believe I have ever heard in Rule V. The Brewers are happy to select:

Dick Bosman sp Washington Senators/Texas Rangers

comments are welcome and in fact encouraged.

You're right that "The Bos" hasn't been used much.  I just took a look at his stats though, and I think there have been a lot worse picks (Shane Spencer?) in Rule V lore.  Has anyone used ol' Dick in the sim?

Bosman is better than Fritz Peterson (same year) who I lost early in the 1st round.

I will take Jerry Reuss of the Los Angeles Dodgers, which pulls them off the board.

Bosman: higher WHIP, higher BB/9, lower K/9, higher HR/9. and 80 fewer innings, of course.

not that Bosman is a bad choice by any means, but it's pretty clear why Peterson is a regular Rule V pick and Bosman is not.

Bosman's performance history is only marginally better, too.  I'm also a big IP/G guy and Fritz has him easily beat there.
