Atlanta- Goose Gossage- P (1981)

Seattle takes P Francisco Liriano

The Giants will take P Lew Burdette 1961.

Hope everyone had a good holiday!

Lew Burdette!!!!!

A proxy/comish pick for sinatra's white sox,   OF Dusty freaking Baker.

Ern, I'm assuming we're either waiting on the two stragglers or waiting for you to pick for them again... Right?

missed pick= OF Chris B Young

I am going to pick for the one remaining straggler and then I will post the proxy that I was given for the pirates.

For Chewbiedooby's Phillies I will make a commish's pick.  He has hole at one position that he is going to have to fill via trade because the remaining options on the draft board are that good.  However, he will have a good starting rotation as I will annoint to him P Brett Myers.  

The rational being that Myers has the best hr/9ip rate of any of the pitchers remaining on the board who also have an oav of .249 or below.  That and his K rate is good. 

For the Pirates I have a proxy of RP Mike Marshall.

Seattle takes 2B Brandon Phillips

very good.

Via proxy the Nationals select 1B Harmon Killebrew

well hell, if they are all going to give up HRs might as well try to limit the damage
