That looks correct. Unfortunately, MizzouRah missed so he gets Sheets. Once again, we all blame this on the jynx of Travis

I like Devine and think he'll have a good year provided his shoulder injury isn't serious. There's also that Brad Ziegler guy that worries me, too.

Come on folks. Too many autopicks lately. We've come this far with good participation. Don't let it slip!

If ChicksDigTheLongBall's next pick is also an autopick, what happens?

What CBR said. Beyond that, I don't know. I mean, we're pretty deep into the draft and I don't think he had missed one up to this point (and if he had, it was just 1). Let's just see if he makes the pick - he has over 5 hours left on the clock

Yeah, sounds like there is a chance he may not be quite ready to start the season, but even if he misses a week or two (hopefully not much more) I like his potential for the season. And well, if the injury worsens or becomes chronic, well, not a big enough investment pick wise to hurt too much.

Oh yeah. Well the guy that received a half year of Sheets via autopick isn't feeling so bad right about now, is he?

Nice...I guess would have been better off not picking and leaving you guys wondering what would have happened if I didn't pick twice in a row. It would have been nice if Yahoo, you know, even made mention of the injury but I guess I deserve it. |

not trying to hold the draft up, I made a trade offer to sooner while he was on the forums, but he must have left before seeing it. I will wait maybe another 30 mins or so to see if he pops back on.

For me it was a toss up between Galaraga and Zimmerman but i decided that Zimm may have bigger boom potential.

No doubt Pakcerfan you would have gotten two great players with your picks, maybe they can channel some of their younger selves.

I thought about Snell. He's decent and under the radar and if everything breaks his way, maybe he can return to his previous levels. That's a lot of ifs, though.
