MizzouRah · 03-05-2014, 10:19 AM

6.3 Homer Bailey - CIN - SP

LastWhiteSoxFanStanding · 03-05-2014, 11:03 AM

In 1986 Vince Coleman stole 107 bases while hitting 232 with a 301 obp. Granted, that will kill my other categories, and I sure hope he hits better than 232 but if he gets playing time he should be fun to watch (maybe)

TRO · 03-05-2014, 11:10 AM

Coleman wasn't going to be sent down to the minors. If Hamilton hits .232, I think he's back in AAA to work a little more as I don't think he'll be +.069 in OBP either.

Subby · 03-05-2014, 11:38 AM

If this was traditional roto I think Hamilton would be a great pick. In 7x7, not so much.

/piling on

LastWhiteSoxFanStanding · 03-05-2014, 11:48 AM

According to Yahoo, he was going on average in the sixth round. But perhaps absolutely no one and their mother had interest in drafting him in this league.

Curses!

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 11:57 AM

Nevermind. I refreshed and see the pick now.

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 11:59 AM

Way too early on Hamilton IMHO. He's a pure speed guy. Sure he's atop a good offensive lineup but skills wise I don't think he's much different from Rajai Davis. I bet Hamilton is a really fun player to watch and I wish him luck this season but I don't think he'll be a great fantasy asset this season.

Toddzilla · 03-05-2014, 12:07 PM

its been 2 hours - how bout a pick?

LastWhiteSoxFanStanding · 03-05-2014, 12:22 PM

I am going to be busy for the rest of the day in all likelihood. I will pm clebrownsfan, but if he doesn't make his pick on time then somebody can post his pick which would be the top guy left on the yahoo rankings which I believe is Jean Segura and this will keep the draft moving.

LastWhiteSoxFanStanding · 03-05-2014, 12:22 PM

Looks like the man of the hour is here

cubboyroy1826 · 03-05-2014, 01:13 PM

I am heading out for about three hours so please take you time with the picks.

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 01:33 PM

I'm ready to pick as soon as clebrownsfan does.

TRO · 03-05-2014, 01:38 PM

Sorry to be THAT guy, but 3 hours have passed and he's been here at least twice...

Via OTTO list.

6.4 Jean Segura SS MIL

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 02:04 PM

6.5 SS Starlin Castro, CHC

I'm cornering the market on Starlings.

Toddzilla · 03-05-2014, 02:15 PM

Why do those two SS come off the board before Andrus?

I'm completely at a loss...

claphamsa · 03-05-2014, 02:21 PM

segura showd signs of being better, and stalin has tantalizing speed... if only he could hit

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 02:24 PM

Andrus is a speed only guy who can't hit. Castro had a down year last year but I'm betting on a rebound. To me Segura and Andrus are basically the same player. I'd rank Castro over both of them.

Subby · 03-05-2014, 02:27 PM

The stock yahoo ratings are garbage.

Toddzilla · 03-05-2014, 02:35 PM

Starlin Castro has "tantalizing speed"???

Are you talking about the shortstop for the Cubs? Because that's utterly ridiculous.

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 02:37 PM

Let me rephrase because I think I'm being too harsh on Andrus. To me he's a one category guy with the potential for a second category. I think Castro has the potential to be a three category guy and I prefer his balance to Andrus's speed.

Santana was next on my list as well.

samifan24 · 03-05-2014, 09:49 PM

Santana will be great this year now that he won't have to worry about catching.
