I'm in...go ahead and close it out.

[ArrylT]

Sorry guys - my hockey team won tonight (4-2) and we went out to celebrate so I got home a lot later than originally planned. I'll have my team in within a couple of hours but won't have it ready in time for a thursday night autodraft since the cut off is in 15min.

I am in and we are full - waivers will be Sunday 5pm and Season will start Monday the 26th! :)

Time to reveal top5!

I had Arod, Heilman, Gomes, Dunn and Small

[unesid]

I had Billy Wagner, Aaron Heilman, Vladi Guerrero, Joe Nathan and Michael Young.

I only remember my top 3 for sure. A-Rod, Cabrera & Heilman. One for sure I am not getting, and of course Fowldawg will no doubt get A-rod. Oh well it is weighted waivers, right?? :)

I have this at home but I think it's something like this,

Ortiz
Utley
Wright
Linebrink
Floyd


Tried to stay away from some of the obvious picks in the hope that I would get most of what I wanted. We'll know if that worked tonight. :D

[ArrylT]

Hmm I have a feeling I'm going to have a high waiver priority! Have both Gomes & Floyd on my card, but neither as high as other owners have posted. Same with Linebrink.

I think my top 5 was

B. Abreu
A. Jones
M. Gonzalez
T. Glaus
R. Helling

Not 100% positive about Glaus & Gonzalez

Btw, I don't know if anyone else did this, but I listed 6 SP on my draft card (including Redding). I figured since I only had a 1 in 12 shot of getting Redding, and that it was highly likely that I wouldn't want to keep whatever I got in exchange for Redding, that I may as well have 5 SP that I actually wanted (if you can want a sub 1m SP as a starter ;)) ... rules state you can only have 5 SP under 1m, but did not mention anything about drafting more than 5 so I figure so long as I cut 1 before the season (before waivers most likely) then that is legal. Meant less spots for RP ... but since we had 11 pitcher spots on our draft card, it was no different than filling out a 2005 draft card. ;)

Well, same as Stoney, I tried not to do the obvious, so we ended up doing the obvious same top two Ortiz, Utley, Rivera, Dunn, not sure on 5th

[Stoney18]

Terry, that's not good news. :(

Is where I'm supposed to say good luck in the draft, all the while I'm hoping you get screwed? :D :D

How about a compromise. I get Ortiz, you get Utley.
