NLD35 - The NLD Lives on!

A team sporting both Delmon Young and Brennan Boesch -- is unbelievable.

I'm loving their RF 5e14 gloves. On the fielding card range outcomes, a die roll between 1-16 is trouble even before we get to the error results.

Raul Ibanez's 5e7 rating makes him the fielding instructor on this squad.

Made my pick. You guys taking all the LHDH/plattoony guys scared me into taking Konerko. Not sure if anyone else was interested in him, but I figured I'd better jump on the bandwagon!

Joe

You do realize I'm a fashion trend setter with the Delmon Young pick. Despite Delmon's off the field issues and 5e rating, he's a great off the bench bat against LHPs.

On the other hand, Paul Henry Konerk is a bit too expensive for my tastes.

Researching.

Spider, good luck with your procedure. I'll say a prayer for you.

Juan Perez vs. Juan Perez

Names can be tricky things. Seems that the Spider-man can't tell them apart!

Gregorius if I had not gotten Escobar first

The thought crossed my mind that you might be switching SS, but you *could* use them as a platoon I suppose.

AT, Didn't realize that, I guess I should have given that you work weekends too. Can't work all 7 days can ya? Glad to have you posting on the boards. Always interesting.

one all glove guy

Smokey, while you're right, they are indpendent and a 1 at SS doesn't directly impact what your 2b does, those two positions make up 13 of the 25 non P/C chances. If you're giving up chances in one place you can, net, end up roughly the same as playing a 2 at both positions. It's a sort of "holistic" look at your entire D and what you're giving up overall that, hopefully, over a 162 season adds up.

Semper, you're loving those cheap DH guys. I'm just looking forward to seeing them in the field when your other players have to sit a few games. Hopefully it will be against me! Yeah, Konerko is a decent price, but he's pretty good v LHP and I'm going to face a few. Looks like I'm going to have a few platoons so I have to have some guys that can get On base and have a little pop too.

Thanks for posting this. Interesting. I think you meant < $4mil, not > $mil on Span.

Joe,

Before Raul, Brennan, or Delmon see the field, they'll need to find their gloves first.

Let's see - four more picks. How many duplicate names are still out there??

PS. Thanks for the nice thoughts for the procedure. I had it done 2 1/2 weeks ago. An 8 mm opening rather than 20 mm has definitely helped me lose weight.

Speaking of weight - I'm definitely obese when it comes to RPs.

Joe

Are you peeking at my proxy list?

I didn't see Brothers going to anyone but me.
