2019 H. Kendrick Nationals B2

Loved what this guy did for the Nats in 2019.

Round 23 pick

1998 Moises Alou

Astros

OF2

5,696,526

RTG already has his Astro

via proxy, fatguyrd selects 2014 Everth Cabrera, Padres (Bench1).

If my calculations are correct, I think fatguyrd is locked into the #1 pick in round 25.

I can close out. My only available B4 was Todd Walker and fatguyrd spared me of likely being the only one needing a default (I had 2014 Zach Walters teed-up).

Round 23
B4 2000 Todd Walker - Rockies - $1,457,089 (everyone else above me has their B4 or a Rockies player)

Round 24
C2 2001 Shawn Wooten - Angels - $1,666,765 (dilligafdbp and Chisock still need a C2 but have an Angel)

I've chased Pedro the past 15 rounds but, alas, I just needed a couple people to help me out these past few rounds and take a couple of low salary bench players away from fatguyrd. Alas, it looks like I decimated my bench and a few pitching spots for nothing. Oh well, go big or go home, I guess.

I will officially bow out of the Pedro sweepstakes and take Nunez - Red Sox Bench 4.
For the last round I am the only one that can take Josh Johnson - SP4 Marlins.

2008 Rafael Furcal

Dodgers

Bench2

2,054,621

Since I was already done with my draft, I was following things closely on the Pedro chase. The Nick Johnson & Nelson Cruz picks did you in.

Pedrocerrano,bigsteve12,and dilligafbp all have their Tigers

i jump ahead here

2017 3B Jeimer Candelario Detroit Tigers Bench4 761,833

Total: 116,175,149

I believe I can finish up. ronthegenius is the only one needing SP4 and he has his Tiger, so:
SP4 2006 Kenny Rogers Tigers $4,690,312

and Chisock is the only one needing OF2 and he has his Athletic, so:
OF2 2009 Matt Holliday Athletics $5,160,346

Grand total = $128,238,225

I am the only one who needs a 3b. Round 24 pick:

2010 Adrian Beltre

Red Sox

3B

6,541,962

total = $120,281,691

The good news for you is if you actually only decimated it, that's just a 10% reduction in effectiveness. I'm a bit of a pedant about how that word became popularly synonymous with annihilated, so I apologize for this post in advance. I mean, my entire Twitter bio consists of this: "Life goal: see the word 'decimate' used correctly even 10% of the time." So, seriously, it's me, not you.

(I really need a life.)

In round 24, fatguyrd takes 2009 Cliff Pennington, Athletics (Bench4)

Lol. My version of this is “could care less” vs “couldn’t care less”

Overall, my futile chase of Pedro roughly decimated my team.
The bench, back up catcher and long reliever positions were 92%imated however.
