Heh, 4 of the 6 guys taken since the turn were guys I had on my short list. Ah well, at least it means less indecision once it's my turn again.

sooner333 · 03-20-2009, 12:05 AM

I PMmed a pick to sterlingice for tomorrow morning if it gets to me overnight. I'm going to sleep in and don't want to miss my first pick. But, I'll be back on before tourney games tomorrow to make my second pick, hopefully by 11.

Only 2 rounds and a couple of picks to go. I'll be in and out a lot this weekend and have some fun work tomorrow night at midnight for a few hours so I have no idea when I'll be able to check.

So, if someone misses a pick- make it, but be kind if they're online. Try to send a PM to whoever is after you so they know they are up.

Remember, we are on weekend hours- 6 hour clock, no night/morning provisions.

Carlos Gomez has electrifying speed but, as the old adage goes, "you can't steal first base." If he becomes more patient at the plate, he could be a good pickup.

Motte is an interesting pick.. LaRussa hates young players, but I hope he gets a fair shake to be our closer if he continues to have a good spring.

Franklin as our closer is not an option I like.

I hear ya. I wanted to stretch a little bit in the second to last round, and I figure he has enough upside that he could be a decent pickup if he becomes patient, like you said. I think Minn will give him the chances to do so.
