I think 4 hours should be enough time. When can you get the draft order posted?

Make the budget $173 million, so we can all be Yankees for a day.

Sorry I was late on my pick. It's a little annoying when your pick comes up at work  Just so we're clear - Machado's injury this year won't affect him in game, right?

In the last be a GM thread, Matt Kemp went 1st overall so people seemed to think his injuries would affect his value.

I personally am a good Mariner fan and add up the WARs before I draft my players. Also, I like the Ortiz pick. I was considering him or Lowrie and decided to go with the premium position player and Lowrie has good seasons hampered by injury. No injuries should mean he's kinda valuable.

Derek Holland had a fantastic year last year and I would imagine he would have regressed a little but still be solid without injuries. My choice was between him and two wildcards. I'm hoping those guys continue to fall...

tadashi posted:Really mad at the Orioles right now but I think I'm going to be happy with Seager. I hope he can play 2nd (I haven't really looked) in OOTP or else Napoli will need to dust off his catching mitt. Kyle Seager was a 2nd basemen in the minors, it's actually his natural position. He only moved to 3rd because he was blocked at the time. seiferguy fucked around with this message at 17:36 on May 23, 2014 |

The trade between mentholmoose and I is contigent on if his guy is available at my draft pick. Otherwise I'll make my selection. If someone can pm me when my pick is up that would be real cool if he's not picking. A pm will notify my phone

Brandon Phillips was a guy I targeted but his recent numbers scared me away since he's looking like he's degrading fast.

I liked how X-men is an admission to the fact that everything done in the 3rd X-men movie was a mistake. Anyways, I'm really hoping I get my picks soon. I have good people in mind (I think).

My phone line (read: PMs) is off the hook. Lots of people apparently want my pick! I'm going to make some counter offers and make a decision on the trade soon.

I'm curious what people think of my team so far. I think I reached with my first pick but overall I think it's going pretty well.

Mornacale posted:All your picks so far are good players. I agree that Machado was a reach, but I like Masterson a lot (more than Holland, in fact). I admittedly wasn't ready at the start of the draft and had little time to think so I picked Machado in a hurry without thinking about it as much as I wanted to. I was also surprised Masterson fell so far. I've also been making a lot of trades in order to accumulate more picks around each other and try to target what I think are the BPAs. I found my lineup from when Deadbeat Dad did this a few years ago and good lord what was I thinking back then (I'll post it after the draft concludes).

I regret that Machado pick. I wish I was a bit more ready at the time and just went for the best pitcher available. I still think the biggest reach was Kimbrel though.

Laderhan posted:McCarthy owns alot, but that seems like kind of a reach here. It's kind of a risky pick, I agree. I think him being injury free and pitching in Safeco is going to help significantly. We are also starting to get to the bottom barrel of SPs that have a major league track record, too.

I'm really curious about how Dylan Bundy will do. I had him as a late pick flier but didn't expect him to be drafted so early. Same goes for Taijuan Walker (though I expected him to be drafted soon since he has a bigger ML track record).

Real quick - how bad are positional adjustments if I were to say... switch a 3rd basemen to 2nd?

Harlock posted:Depends on who it is. In OOTP land if someone is great defensively at one infield position, they can learn the new position over the course of a season (it might not be pretty though). It all depends on their stats - range, arm, errors, etc. Since this is only a one season sim, I wouldn't recommend it unless doing career play. Thanks. The people I were looking at had no experience playing 2nd base. I had 3 people in mind for 2nd but I think Weeks is probably the safest. No idea how OOTP will project him with his last two seasons being a down year.

CJ Cron was a bad pick, but I was at a bar and couldn't remember all the people I wanted as a potential DH except him, and saw that I was up so yeah. I probably should have just asked IcePhoenix to autodraft for me.
