3rd Auction league - bidding...now chat thread

[kimkrichbaum2]

Mantle is not an extra CF, he's just the league's best (and most expensive :shock: ) DH

[carr20]

I'll volunteer to do an Owner by Owner purchase thread...and will not be even remotely offended when someone points out any errors/omissions if I make any.

Frank Abagnale Sr.: You know why the Yankees always win, Frank?

Frank Abagnale, Jr.: 'Cause they have Mickey Mantle?

Frank Abagnale Sr.: No, it's 'cause the other teams can't stop staring at those damn pinstripes.

I bid $5M on pinstripes, 1958

And as far as the getting the 2 CFs goes, I guess I've learned my lesson not to put 2 bids in at the same time. From here on out I'll probably have to wait until the 24 hours is pretty much up so I can see as many results as possible before entering any bids.
Kinda crappy when you only have 2 players and already have no shot of winning the league.

There is always trading. And there is always taking a Mantle that can play another position.
