I don't think you're reading the export tracker correctly

Almost all teams did export!

[kenjabroni]

hrm......maybe so. Maybe I looked at it a bit early too. I think I checked it around 730 so still plenty of time for guys to get stuff in. Think my team has a fighting chance this year with my signings........at least I hope so anyhow.

[Chief Rum]

Well, i know I didn't put an export in this sim. Free agents too expensive this round.

[buckinbranco]

Seems like there are more relievers that anything else in this draft.

That is how its been in recent memory. If you see two SP worth taking you are lucky. There are a lot of relievers and when starters do show up they are high school kids with a 1 in control.....BLEH. Just have to roll with it and use Free Agency.

Yea there are always more relievers than starters, which I guess makes sense since only the very best pitchers make it as starters, but when I was doing my list it seemed like half of the draft pool was middle relievers this week!

Like you said though, the dearth of young pitching just makes free agency that much more exciting I feel fortunate in that Waikiki's starting rotation is completely homegrown. They may not be the best, but they are Beach Boys through and through. Also, they are cheap!

WOW. The cards werent aligned for me in this draft hahaha. I Picked mostly postinal players in my top twenty with a few pitchers here and there and i got 3 of 4 pitching with my top 4 selections.

There were some great talents in this draft with the bat. Well at least my trend of getting good relievers shall continue. Good luck to everyone on the season.

We just can't get over the hump. Too good to have a top draft pick, too bad to make the playoffs.

It doesn't help when our pitchers don't develop. Damn you Ismael 'Mule' Perez!

What's going on, gentlemen?

I'm the new Ann Arbor GM. Good to be here. Always wanted to join a FOOL league and plan on being here for the long haul.

Hey Afino! I've been here for the long haul (well, in regular FOOL, that is) and trust me when I say you will never want to leave. And if you try to leave, people will do a great job convincing you to stay!

It's good to have to here. Good luck with Ann Arbor!
