Re: The Chat MLB League - DRAFT MARCH 14th-

Gonna ride my pitching studs to victory: Chris Sale, Gerrit Cole, James Paxton, Stephen Strasburg, and Cole Hamels? DOMINANCE COMMENCE

Was actually debating between Bryce Harper and Sale for my 1st Pick so I was pleasantly surprised when I managed to have Sale fall into my lap. I prioritized power with almost everybody hitting at least 23 HR last year except C Wilson Ramos (15 in 382 AB) and an injured Miguel Cabrera.

I'm hoping for a fluke 25 HR year from Miggy but if he bombs, I still have Justin Smoak to pick up the slack. I also still have enough power bats with Harper, Khris Davis, Nelson Cruz, and Eugenio Suarez.

Re: The Chat MLB League - DRAFT MARCH 14th-

No, I was at NAIT when it happened. Of all places for it to happen, last place I would've expected it was my college.

I'll deal with what I've got my own fault in a lot of ways for the mess (of a life) I've got.

Also just a note that the "Opening Day" slate starts Thursday, March 28th I believe for the rest of MLB.

Thought I had a shot at surging past you for the 1 seed in the final week but looks like you got a good push late.

Re: The Chat MLB League - DRAFT MARCH 14th-

Our Previous Champions:
2014: Krankor defeats Bored
2015: CWM defeats 909
2016: Bored defeats CWM
2017: Bored defeats Krankor
2018: MFer deafeats Steak
2019:

could we have our first non-Bored Two-time Champ? Krankor and I are the only former Champs in contention. We're starting to get a nice little history going though.

Re: The Chat MLB League - DRAFT MARCH 14th-

Pretty sure I requested this before, but can we not have the playoffs run through the last week of the season when half your lineup just sits because playoff races are over? Ridiculous.
Its Thursday and my team has 0 runs.

Agreed. I've had to swap guys out due to them being sat irl. It's the equivalent of playing Week 17 in the NFL.

Re: The Chat MLB League - DRAFT MARCH 14th-

well i ask you guys repeatedly at the start of every season what changes you want. We had a whole thing this season about the rules in the thread!

Make sure to say something next year!

17th is St. Patrick’s Day. Not sure if that impacts attendance for some.
