Official OOTP12 BSL 2.0 Draft Thread - !LIVE!

[slavlite]

Yes, its literally tomorrow morning, and he did inform me ahead of time, If the consensus is to not wait then we enforce the 10 hour rule, IF we grant him a little lee way its only until tomorrow morning.

Sidenote: I will be posting a thread today or tomorrow about going live online with this to finish it up we still have 10-14 days before we have to force our hand as we still need to familiarize eeryone with the upload files and such which will happen soon, I have some things to do tonight after work before any of those decisions are made.

I know just think there was probley a more productive way to go about it in future situation whether its a list or not. I personally just wouldn't hold you guys from moving along but I understand why.

Lets skip his pick

 

[OriolesFan8]

We're talking about less than a 24 hour wait. James is out of town, it can't be helped. I know we're all excited and anxious to get this thing going, but everyone take a deep breath and be ready to pick when he returns

Agreed!

I don't have a problem waiting on James to make his pick. He has done alot for all of us in the league with the team and league breakdowns and such.

+1. I think we can give James a little leeway.

I understand that everyone's excited to draft and everything (myself included), but life does get in the way sometimes, as much as we don't all want it to.

I agree, give James time to do what he needs to do, as for myself, I start my travels back to Afghanistan today, I sent a list in just in case.

 

[valediction]

I vote wait for him

 

[Meliah]

I don't mind waiting for James but he really should've sent a list in instead of assuming the draft would not get back to him before Wed.

 

[HeboAlan]

Thanks that's all I was getting at I don't mind waiting for him just thought it should have been avoided!

 

[worldwideed]

I really thought we had moved beyond some of this stuff, guess I was wrong.

CIN selects SP Dustin McGowan

PM sent to SF

Super steal at this point...I was really hoping that no one would take him until I was up again

I almost took him instead of Volquez

Keep your head down brother!

Same here, same here.

Still some good pitching available though!

I wish you had.

Should I be checking the website more than the sheet? I thought Rich Hill was just as good as McGowan - at least pretty close?

Open them both up and compare side by side...similar players except McGowan has nearly twice the movement rating and potential, and is two years younger.

 

[Hoyt55]

I do give a slight nod to McGowan, but Hill does earn some extra points since he's a lefty.

Hill was still a very solid third round pick in my opinion, though.

 

[OriolesFan8]

Thanks for the input. I've been slacking on the website - it took me a while to finally download it to my other laptop, so I've been going off the list.

How about Hamels, was he taken to early?
