Before the draft started I seriously considered picking the Baker Bowl and going with an all left handed team. But, I for one, do not want to make a mockery of this well respected institution.

Amazing.

 

There are better options...

 

Alright take my Intybucks for Brandon Phillips. If anyone else wants Brandon Phillips then...okay take him.

If there's some weird fine print where I have to link to all these guys' dick pics or something please sell my team to the Madoffs

Year changes in bold.

*All players are actually Shaquille O'Neal attempting to dress up as them

**Except for Jeter who is actual Derek Jeter but in all Boston gear

***And Ryan Freel my all-time favorite player, but def before the CTE and more around the time he did this

 

Personally, I would have gamed the system, waited for the assigned scrub second baseman, and then did the add/drop for $5 to get Phillips instead of the $10 to get Phillips now. But I guess the price of your integrity is higher than five Intybucks. One of the many ways you differ from dp4m.

Next we move on to Spring Training. I'm going to run this a bit different this year. I'm going to give everyone the same eight games (4 home, 4 away) so that everyone can "scout" the other teams. If you haven't already, please post your active vs. inactive roster, and if you want - post your lineup and rotation. If you don't post, I'll just guess for ST.

 

I need to know who the games are against to set my lineupa

 

Who are we playing in the eight games?

And start at home or away?

 

Everyone will do this schedule for Spring Training

I can't believe Chris Hoiles does't even make the active roster.

Though it is just Spring Training.

Still, the Curse of Hoiles might strike

 

I think it's been long enough, I'm ready to see heels' simmed games so I know how to crush him utterly.

Crush heels.
See him driven before me.
Hear the lamentation of the Judys...

 

heels if you trade me Luke in the Jedi Draft I will make sure you go 18-0 vs. dp this year in baseball.
