Cemented my Clay Buchholz pick

http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/index. ... he-splits/

"...So was the splitter’s addition the sole driver behind Buchholz’s resurgance after the first two months of 2012? Fairly unlikely. He still didn’t use the pitch nearly as much as his other offspeed pitches, especially earlier in the summer. In addition, there were other improvements in his rate stats that may be connected to Buchholz’s shift in offspeed repertoire, but not controlled by it. His walk rate dropped precipitously beginning in June (10.6% in April/May compared to 6.6% the rest of the year) and his .344 BABIP from the first two months eventually dropped to a season-ending .286 without a dramatic shift in batted balls, implying there was a degree of luck regression mixed in."

I like a 28 year old, former stud of a pitcher, who just by all indications had some 'bad luck' last year, and I especially like him in the 14th round.

I think Bucholtz is a great pick especially this late.

Crap, I've been eyeing him for a few rounds now and was hoping he'd fall back to me. Not that I need an SS, but I love the AVG and SB potential here.

I've got pick 15.9 coming up here soon, and I'm willing to trade it.

See my trade with Scrantonicity for 15.1 as a guide. I have pick 25.12 available to package with it.

Something like a mid to late 16th round pick and an early to mid 17th for 15.8 and 25.12 will score you a pick today, without having to give up another pick this round. Good players are running out. Lets make a deal so that you get 2 picks this round!

Don't worry, I think the first year we did this no one drafted a Texas Rangers pitcher till the 20th round or something.

Next in line for utility super-sub:

Always nice to get love on a pick, much appreciated. I always get me a super sub or two in this league.
