[S-Man]

Feel free to add your picks as we go along. I'll try and keep it up to date, but I won't always be able to get to it, so any help from others would be great.

[YankeeManiac]

4.1 Nathan Frey takes Adrian Gonzalez.

[Scrantonicity]

1.5 Frozen Giant Knockers selects: Troy Tulowitski, SS

[YankeeManiac]

[swisherfan]

1.10 Roy Halladay SP Philadelphia

[Pocket full of Posey]

*Legitimate trade!*

After seeing Heggos and Yankeemaniac jerk each other off and make a trade that, let's be honest about this one, no one actually cared about, let alone read, Swisherfan and I decided to nut up and actually make a big boy trade:

Swisherfan will be receiving Pocket Full of Posey's picks 1.11, 2. 10, 4.10 and 6.10

Pocket Full of Posey will be receiving Swisherfan's 2.11, 4.11, 6.11 and....

1.10 ROY HALLADAY, Pictcher, Philadelphia Phillies, Savior, Bullet-Proof, Awesome.

This means that Swisherfan has the next pick, which he has chosen:

1.11 Joey Votto, 1B, Cincinnati Reds

Boring. Have fun with all those home runs Chris.

[Scrantonicity]

With pick 1.12 Scrantonicity selects: Justin Upton, OF, ARI

[Pocket full of Posey]

For the 12th overall pick in the 2012 draft, Kershawcalypse selects:

1.12 Clayton Kershaw, Los Angeles Dodgers, Starting Pitcher

This pick is purely for namesake, not because he is the reigning NL Cy Young Winner, or that he is a twenty game winner or that he is effing awesome. Simply to keep the name. Once hearing about the news of being selected by Kershawcalypse, this photo was taken:

[FusionHah]

For the 14th pick....Fusion Hah selects Prince Fielder to join the Zinc Saucier's.


In response to finding this out Prince decided to bulk up in preparation....

[wsuguay]

Every great team needs some great uniforms. That's why I'm taking...

1.15 Hanley Ramirez - SS/3B - Miami Marlins of Florida, USA

[freezedawg2002]

1.16 Dustin pedroia, 2b boston
