    Re: Fantasy Draft Results Thread

    First off, I want to say thanks for this thread, because I have been lost on what to do until the OS rosters come out. This was a perfect solution and along with all drafts, I had some picks I enjoyed, and picks I regret lol. I got the first pick and was excited lol but then I found out quickly it was a snake draft. I went for a combo of players I really like and players I figured had good trade value. This obviously isn't too realistic so I'm not going to treat it as such, so I have budgets off. But I'm in spring training and I am finding it hard to make a deal for anybody. I had to trade my A potential 18 year old first baseman for The Beard. It stung a little, especially after finding out the fact that he will most likely retire at the end of every postseason. But here are my results, can't remember the order with the exception of Trout #1 overall.

    Pick #- 1
    C- Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Derek Norris
    1B- David Ortiz, Anthony Rizzo, Yonder Alonso
    2B- Some A prospect named Steven Castro who is starting for me.
    3B- Arod, Pedro Alvarez, Mike Olt
    SS- Jeter, Ruben Tejada
    OF- Bryce Harper, Johnny Damon, Starling Marte
    OF- Mike Trout, Lorenzo Cain, Colby Rasmus
    OF- Jason Heyward
    P- Roy Halladay
    P- Chris Carpenter
    P- Ryan Vogelsong
    P- Dylan Bundy, Trevor Bauer, Jacob Turner, Shelby Miller, Tyler Skaggs, Julio Teheran
    P- Mariano
    Any Prospects- I'm gonna use the not real ones, 2B Steven Castro, 3B Sammy Torres, SP Jose Garcia, RP Aaron Rosales, 3B Jonas Garlobo, 1B Herb Berry (traded him for Brian Wilson and Bud Norris. Devastating), RP Willy Zarate, RF Richard Sheridan, RF Kurt Wilson. These were all the A's I drafted as prospects.

    I like my team, but clearly this team is not meant for anything long term. I took Vogelsong hoping to trade him because he's not particularly fun to use, but so far I can't trade/trade for anybody.

      Pick: 17

      2B: Danny Espinosa
      SS: Starlin Castro
      3B: Manny Machado
      LF: J.D. Martinez
      CF: Jon Jay
      RF: Giancarlo Stanton
      DH: Wilin Rosario
      Bench: Tony Campana, Emanuel Buriss, Danny Valencia, Starling Marte

      Rotation:
      1. Gio Gonzalez
      2. Jeremy Hellickson
      3. Micheal Pineda
      4. Ricky Romero
      5. Rubby De La Rosa

      Bullpen:
      Jordan Norberto
      Andrew Cashner
      James Russell
      Andrew Bailey
      ect.
      CL- Addison Reed

      Here's my line-up most of the time: (and stats 10 games in) I'm 7-3
      1. Castro .270 2HR 8RBI
      2. Espinosa .400 4HR 13RBI
      3. Stanton .300 5HR 10RBI
      4. Perez .350 6HR 12RBI
      5. Rizzo .350 4HR 8RBI
      6. Rosario .270 5HR 9RBI
      7. Machado .350 5HR 11RBI
      8. Martinez .250 2HR 6 RBI
      9. Jay .400 0HR 7RBI

      I feel like this is a pretty solid team. Not many superstars but I don't have a starting position player over the age of 26. My rotation is all guys in their 20's too. What do you guys think.

      Awesome squad I like the theme you took. I just caution taking too many rookies to watch them fall flat on their face in real life is hard to carry on a season in The Show watching them mash Ya know ? I took jemile weeks early last year he was my franchise second baseman and yuk lol Bottom line. I likey and looks like you sticking to a plan. But I got to a point where I didn't like anyone over 30 and passed up some of my faves on age alone madden and MLB. Enjoy your favorites while they are here

        Very solid team! I wish I could get Stanton, but it's impossible to get both Stanton and one of the elite CFs (Trout, Kemp, or Cutch). Starlin at SS and Machado at 3rd are both really great considering how young they are. In fact, I just did another draft where I only took young players, and I think I took Castro in the second or third round because of just how young/good he is at such a premium position. Rizzo has been a steal in all the drafts I have done so far, mainly because of his age and A potential, I just don't like using him because I don't like his batting stance lol. JD Martinez is a good value too considering he's an A, yet is always there in the later rounds. I love Perez personally as a C, and you got 2 A starters. One thing I don't like (not you, but the game) is that Pineda is only a B potential. The guy got injured last year and was traded for one of the top prospects in the game (Montero). I don't think it is fair to knock him so far down, but it is what it is. Anyway, that is an awesome team. I think I like your team better than mine lol.

        I'm about to post the results of my second draft with the indians where I only took young players. I made such silly errors in taking old players my first time around not realizing how quickly they regress. So Papi, Mo, Halladay etc are gone this time around lol. I had the 4th pick too. I'll post real soon the results.

          Wow. I now see why I don't do fantasy drafts. Some awfully screwy AI logic in here.

                too bad, I was hoping for realistic fantasy drafts. Let me guess, you can get Jurickson Profar in round 15, Dylan Bundy in round 20? am I right?

                sorry to be a debbie downer, but Harper going in the 5th round is just absurd. It sounds like the computer drafts for one season only, with no regard for the future.
                I got Bundy in the 17th round, Machado in the 11th, and Shelby Miller in the 25th. The computer drafts off of overalls to a certain extent. They do not go after the really old guys in most cases. The computer seems to go after relief pitchers in certain rounds as well.

                  I know and that's what I like! It says my hitting is 1st, pitching 29th, and fielding 13th.
                  I don't agree with the pitching being a 29 but oh well.

                    I had this problem as well with regular component cables, as soon as I switched to an HDMI cord the fantasy draft worked. Don't know what your using but it's def an issue.

                      Had the same problem, it still works though. Its actuallt there, so if you push down on the d-pad and push triangle you will see the players card. Understand?

                            That's a very solid team. You have good batters in Tulo, Longoria, and Upton and your pitching is good. Balanced overall.

                              We are 15 games apiece in switched from rookie hitting to veteran with some slight sliders. Rosters are now pretty much set so I'll put all of them down

                              Im curious as to why you have Crawford in center and Jackson in left.

                                I noticed that too. It may not matter too much though.
