Cant see someone passing on Magglio for rasmus.. Even in a keeper league Mags will put up better numbers for 2-3 years imo. Not surprising me. You would think Magglio was a one-hit wonder last year with the lack of respect he gets in fantasy baseball. |

is cause he was hurt for 2 years.. Most people dont realize that he was very solid before then.. but, he is 34 and is prolly due for a slight decrease.

You would think Magglio was a one-hit wonder last year with the lack of respect he gets in fantasy baseball. He gets plenty of love, but after a 10 year career where he didn't hit higher than .320 I don't think anyone expects him to have a year like that again. I would think the average is more like .315 with 25 homers and 100+ RBI. Great numbers, but that makes him a top 30 player, not a top 5 player like he was last year, plus he's 34 and oh yeah he makes $15 mil next year. I like Magglio, but I think he's very overrated this year. I'd take my chances with Colby Rasmus. |

The guy is still a stud. I'd take him on for free in exchange for a pick. Hell yes, son!

Nellie's was on earlier. He knows it is his pick, right? Or is he just waiting on offers too?

Damn. I just I'd be able to get Matt Wieters when the second round came back to me. Damn you Spackler.

I'm going to wait until tomorrow to pick. I'm not sure what's going on with the Rasmus/Magglio deal and that will have an impact on who I take. But honestly I need to do a little more research, I thought I'd get McCutchen. Good night folks, I hope you enjoyed the fireworks.

I actually had two other names typed in before changing it to McCutchen. I hope he gets a shot this year.

McCutchen will get a shot around mid-season. He's a better talent than Nyjer Morgan and Nate McLouth are, so I look forward to that.

I'm fucking wasted. But I gotta say, Bill Withers is one of the biggest pimps ever. Just listen to "I Can't Write Left Handed", ... he's the man.

The cd that plays in the restaurant has four covers of "Lovely Day" on it. I'm so sick of that fucking song........................but you're right, Bill Withers is the man. Like Curtis Mayfield, the man.

Wow, was I drunk. I vaguely remember listening to Mr. Withers. That sucks that your restaurant ruins great songs like that... and yes, Curtis Mayfield is THE MAN. One of the more underappreciated artists ever in my opinion.

Sorry it took so long to make the trade last night gentleman. I was trying to squeeze a little more out of it. Damnit if I didn't think Wieters was going to make it to me at 15 though. Thought I could get him & a little something on the side.....you know how that always works out though.

You're the fifth person who wanted Wieters to fall to him, lol. So I know how you feel.
If my guy isn't available to me next pick, I may throw a verbal tantrum.

Yeah, Bobby, I was trying to decide between Wade Davis and Cueto, leaning toward Davis. Thanks for making my decision for me.

Cueto was my 2nd choice. Tough call but I liked Davis a wee bit more

I'd have taken Cueto if I didn't have Kershaw, Elbert, and Kuroda already. Sort of an SP overload.

But as Howard indicated when he took him, I love me some Reds prospects.

I know I'm late to this party, but I also can't believe:
1. Ruck didn't pick Cueto
2. Wade Davis wasn't kept.
I almost, almost, took Davis over McCutchen.
