Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
I planned on more pitching also, but wanted to shift it to rounds 4-9. Hoped for both Sasaki & Yamamoto… also Logan Webb, but you snagged him one pick before me.mattmitchl44 wrote: ↑16 Mar 2025 19:09 pm My draft turned out to be less pitching heavy than I thought it was going to be. Based on the mock drafts I thought I was going to take about 5 SP in the first 8 rounds and maybe 7 in the first 12.
Funny… I think the only real “homer” picks were of former Cardinals. Goldschmidt, Arozarena, Flaherty & Alcantara all went earlier than I would have expected.
The only pick I’m not thrilled about is Pressly in the 12th round. Wanted Fairbanks there, thought he was gone when he wasn’t, and pivoted.

Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
A shocking turn of events.
Was all set to Draft Ramirez with the 4 pick. Several mocks reinforced that belief.
My board was set up to follow off of that and the blend of power and SB that he provides.
Judge being available froze me. Still should have taken Ramirez as my 4 as it changed my strategy entirely. For the worse. Lol

Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
Well I did intend to drop completely. Things just a little crazy right now. Figured I better spend more time taking care of home life. No one thing, no serious illness, just (bleep). Most or all of you are married, so I figure you probably know what (bleep) is.An Old Friend wrote: ↑16 Mar 2025 09:50 amLik, "out" out, or just gonna miss the draft out and you'll work with your auto-picked team?HorseTrader wrote: ↑16 Mar 2025 08:17 am I really hate doing this but I have to drop out.

Anyway since it auto selected me a mess, I guess I might as well try to make lemonade.
Tucker wouldn't have been my choice at #6 but he's not a bum.. I was hoping for Ramirez but he was gone. So I would have moved to Gunner H or Durran. 2nd round Merril is fine but I'd have been looking at Burnes or Acuna. 3rd round I had Clase high on my list but Riley is probably a better pick. 4th I like Altuve but I was very interested in taking a flyer on Sasaki so who knows.
Dazepster I think Miller was a great pick in the 5th round. I got Langford which is ok but I think I would have went for the best starting pitcher left.
After that who knows, best player available at an open position. Good luck

Feels like a positive outcome that you weren’t able to draft closers in the first 5 rounds

I took Ryan Walker in the 6th hoping that either Westburg or McClain would get to me in the 7th but that was a misread on my part.

Yeah I saw. I don’t need that other player that shares a name with a shatty beer.
It’s not a no, but it’s a “let the dust settle” so I can take a look around.

Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
Hey Quincy,
How do you add players to the NA category? Do we need to wait for MLB rosters to get set first?
Thanks

Re: CT Fantasy Baseball - Interested?
You can add them just as you would any other player. The post-draft player pool follows the usual rules for players put on waivers - so claims will not be processed until the 19th, but you can place claims now.
