There are two Jeff Robinsons in 1988. Though we can assume, maybe it would be good to have thejuice6 specify.

I missed him the first time through when I made my erroneous pick. His numbers are actually better than a lot of my starters. I am interested to see how he fairs with the A's.

Taken in the first round:

4 Cardinals, Indians
2 Orioles, Padres, Rangers, Tigers
0 Phillies, Braves, Angels, White Sox

I seriously considered taking the Cardinals instead of the Dodgers.

I thought I had it, but I haven't managed to find it yet. Wouldn't be *that* hard to reconstruct, right?

sweet, looks much better . . . thought I'd put that up so we could see how well folks like odalisgagne did . . . on a side note, I think the Twins were picked 13th, my bad.

an interesting measure of performance might be to compare where the team was picked versus where they finished in % differential. In other words, STL would be +1, TB +5, PHI +5, TOR +12, NYY 0, ATL 0, CHW +2, COL +3, etc.

Some people might be drafting for best sim winning% and others might be going for the brass ring of best difference (there's a free team to be won, you know...)
