I had to protect Salvy because Porter was already gone and I didn't want to get stuck with John wathan or Buck Martinez, sometimes the NEED outweighs the want?

I never imagined a Rule V draft thread would be so entertaining.

And this fun discussion will likely continue all day, as nordawg can't access WIS at work. He'll probably be picking late this evening, as he's on the west coast.

Someone get that man a Cricket Wireless unlimited data plan.

I sitemailed him at 8am PST but life happens.

This is some of the funniest stuff I have read since juggalosteve

I had not previously been exposed to the legend of juggalosteve but my goodness.

With the first pick in the second round, the Tampa Bay Rays of Satan select J.R. Richard from the Houston Astros.

Sitemail sent.

WHY would anyone NOT protect this guy, one of the BEST Astros pitchers in their teams history? Good pick!

still can't get over the fact that all these posts are from the same dude who's made sure to protect Sal Perez & Omar Moreno.

and Mike Sweeney!

Sweeney's 2000 season was Remarkable, better than Most 1B, except for maybe Lou Gehrig?

Alright, rbow, you've been called out. I'm going to need any evidence whatsoever that you know what you're doing in this game.

I'm sorry, I have to ask. Are you Jon Bois?

The best modern day OF on a franchise that employed Barry Bonds.

Onbase and slugging percentages are overrated. It's all about the steals.

Noted bad base stealer: Pittsburgh Pirate Barry Bonds

rotflmfao.

WIS is differant? WIS considers Maddux & Martinez the BEST Goats of all time?! I think that - Jim Palmer, Bert Blyleven, Nolan Ryan, Dave Steib, Mario Soto, Tom Seaver, Steve Carlton, Mark Fydrich, Bob Gibson, even Wilber Wood & Gaylord Perry - might want to have something to say about that? If I have the Biggest, Most important game EVER happening... I want Bob Gibson or Sandy Koufax on the pitching mound instead or Maddux or Pedro? But that's my IMO?
