23.17 Justin Smoak, Texas Rangers, 1B

Great pick Posey- was really hoping he might sneak back to me in the 24th.

26.11 Sean Rodriguez, 2B, TAM

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH. Was really hoping to get this guy late. Could be a nothing pick, or this year's Ben Zobrist. Nice pick.

Was in my queue as well. I don't see a Zobrist-like breakout, but if he gets the job at 2B, he could give you 15 HRs. Nicely done.

29 homers and 1.017 OPS in 365 at-bats for Triple-A. Doesn't necessarily translate, but the ceiling is high.

PS- anyone using the search function of the forum to find players who have been selected, it is completely unreliable. Case in point; I searched 'Blanks' three times with no results, 'Kyle' twice (no results, despite there being many Kyles taken), and then back to 'Blanks' a fourth time to which it finally gave me the result that he was chosen 13.1. Point being, I suggest you check every possible spelling of the guy you are drafting a minimum of 36 times before actually selecting sed player.

Can't blame you. Who'd be foolish enough to draft Kyle Blanks in the 13th? Oh, wait...

What can I say? I dig the 'fro.



There's 30 HR power in that 'fro.

Been at a standstill for over 14 hours now (granted some of those hours were overnight hours), maybe someone who knows angels02 send him a shout and let him know he is up?... Just a thought.

[Pocket full of Posey]

Agreed. This is getting a little sluggish.

I thought we were done drafting on this site and were moving to Yahoo. Please, whoever that 20th person is, sign up on the site!

There are 20 people signed up for yahoo. . . fyi.

Then I think scott should be able to log in and give that 20th person his team and we can continue to draft from that point

[ucancallmedavis]

Looking to move up in draft ASAP, any and all offers welcome! Maybe my 28th and 29th for someones late 27th and 30th???

All right fellas. It's been a busy weekend for me moving apartments, so I wasn't able to get to this sooner. All teams have been entered through round 25. You should be able to access your teams. I had to substitute a few players for players that were not in the yahoo database. I wrote them down, but I have no idea what happened to the piece of paper, though I should find it over the next few days and will post all the replacements, and who they represent. When one of those players is added to yahoo, let me know, and I will make the change to your team so that (hopefully) it does not count as a transaction against you. For those players that have been drafted since round 25, please add them to your team as soon as possible. Also, continue to post your pick on the draft board in addition to making your pick in yahoo.

Angels 02 selects Aaron Cunningham of sd

No trade--I think angels02 just got passed by about 10 teams.

Oh, then the reminder is to post your pick number for the benefit of people like me who have managed to stop obsessively watching the clock on picks that aren't right next to mine. I was just about to shoot Josh the ol' "yr up" text.

question: If I pick out of line am I obligated to take that player? If so, that's perfectly reasonable. Just thought I'd ask. If no one responds I'll assume I do.

I actually wouldnt think so... Id imagine you could take who ever when your pick finally came. Obviously you just would not receive that player at that point in time as it wouldnt be your pick.

I don't speak from any authority, but I would assume you have have zero obligation to take said Dodger Middle Infielder
