18.1 Jeff Francoeur, Outfielder, KC Royals

[heggos]

12.13 Vogel selects Jeff Franceour

18.1 Jeff Francoeur, Outfielder, KC Royals

You get points for spelling his name correctly, but he was still off the board six rounds ago.

[YankeeManiac]

18.2 YankeeManiac selects Jason Bourgeios, the fastest bench player in the majors on the weakest offensive team.Give him 400 at bats and he'll give me 50 steals minimum.

Pocketful and Mendoza, don't forget to pick new players, as you selected guys who were already taken

[mendoza]

Knew that was too good to be true, despite my searches!

17.18 - Nyjer Morgan OF -MIL
18.3 - Eric Thames OF - Tor

[Scrantonicity]

With pick 18.4, Scrantonicity selects: Pedro Alvarez, 3B, PIT

[YankeeManiac]

Nyjer morgan already went also. Pick Again Glen...that should be your nickname

[Pocket full of Posey]

12.13 Vogel selects Jeff Franceour

18.1 Jeff Francoeur, Outfielder, KC Royals

You get points for spelling his name correctly, but he was still off the board six rounds ago.

If you guys expect us to pick guys who aren't already picked and follow your spread sheets, I suggest you spell names correctly. I didn't find Jeff on either list because his name is misspelled. Same with Stephen Strasberg FYI S-Man.

18.1 Brian Christopher Fuentes (T-Rex), Relief Pitcher, Oakland Athletics

Here's hoping this guy isn't picked either.
