mandnwong: yes
goobers1995: cool, thanks!

mandnwong: and then, u have approx 3 min
goobers1995: oh no! I just added my next 3 picks!!! JUST KIDDING
mandnwong: lol
hermrulez: we ready?
mandnwong: fyi, for proxy picks where i was not told what to do, i will primarily use O-Rank unless it's obvious the O-Rank is no good
mandnwong: i will also try to draft based on need
mandnwong: when it's reasonably close
hermrulez: sounds good
mandnwong: or if the team already have like 2 guys at the position
mandnwong: ok, i'm gonna just pick for young guns
goobers1995: cool
mandnwong: i think we have everyone here except cory
mandnwong: for these 2 rounds

hermrulez: he here yet?
mandnwong: should i give him maddux or baker?
mandnwong: it's mainly between those 2

mandnwong: don't know what happened to him
mandnwong: so i'm gonna just pick for him
mandnwong: been nearly an hour since we started (and i emailed everyone)
mandnwong: think he got enough bats but no SS?
mandnwong: he gets ramon hernandez -- no catcher either
mandnwong: walruses
mandnwong: is anibal sanchez pitching at all?
hermrulez: no dont think so
daveyjohnsonxxx: "he's likely to miss at least the first couple of months."
mandnwong: oh
mandnwong: but think i should take him? there's not much to choose from the first page of pitchers
mandnwong: and he does have 6 SPs though a couple are iffy
mandnwong: he could use another RP or two
mandnwong: actually, dempsters' not RP
mandnwong: so i guess another RP then
hermrulez: yea
mandnwong: he takes springer
mandnwong: too hard to pick
mandnwong: chavez
keyalyn: Masahide Kobayashi
mandnwong: cory
haysguru2: Brandon Morrow
mandnwong: young guns
mandnwong: guess i should take a bat for him now
mandnwong: how bout mark reynolds since rolen might be iffy

mandnwong: he takes crain
mandnwong: wood man
hermrulez: done
mandnwong: starting round 21 (and 2 rounds left) now:
mandnwong: naps
goobers1995: Murphy's gonna be good
mandnwong: ok
mandnwong: naps takes riske
mandnwong: highlanders
hermrulez: whos he with again?
mandnwong: who?
mandnwong: murphy?
hermrulez: murphy

goobers1995: DeRosa
mandnwong: center for ants
mandnwong: wow. SS dropoff after crosby is huge based on yahoo o-rank
hermrulez: how come i have 3 open spots yet there only 2 rd left
mandnwong: u have hochevar
mandnwong: need to be added later
hermrulez: o yea lol
hermrulez: is he in yahoo yet?
mandnwong: ants take crosby
mandnwong: don't know
mandnwong: go check
mandnwong: if he is, u can just add him
mandnwong: sultans: my turn
mandnwong: dang, i didn't even prepare
hermrulez: no hes not his is stupid
mandnwong: ?
hermrulez: hochevar is not in yahoo yet its so stupid.... he is in my other league
daveyjohnsonxxx: Why don't we just use a proxy player for Hochevar? Roger Clemens?
hermrulez: huh
daveyjohnsonxxx: Someone to hold the roster spot until Hochevar comes back to the majors.
hermrulez: i dont wanna hav an advantage over yall
mandnwong: ok. i took volquez
mandnwong: walruses
mandnwong: don't worry about it
mandnwong: just leave it empty
hermrulez: ok
hermrulez: will i have to waste a waiver spot on him?
mandnwong: walruses takes d reyes
mandnwong: chavez
keyalyn: Michael Bourn
hermrulez: nice pick
mandnwong: cory
haysguru2: Santana
mandnwong: ooh
mandnwong:
mandnwong: young guns
mandnwong: should i give him garrett anderson, melky cab, willits or kotchman?
mandnwong: he needs an OF to start the season, but otherwise, he's ok
hermrulez: melky
mandnwong: he has granderson on DL
goobers1995: anderson is prob the best one of the lot
mandnwong: he's got 6 SP and 6 RP
mandnwong: and the SPs are not bad at all
mandnwong: calling once?
mandnwong: calling twice?
mandnwong: sold! melky it is
mandnwong: well, he's loaded w/ CFs now
mandnwong: slicers
mandnwong: he gets ramon ramirez -- supposedly having a good spring
mandnwong: sneaker pimps
mandnwong: hmmm
mandnwong: i thought he didn't have any picks
mandnwong: he gets dennis sarfarte
mandnwong: turtles
mandnwong: no real needs
mandnwong: should i just give him randy johnson then?
mandnwong: or maybe chris ray?
hermrulez: isnt ray out for the yr
mandnwong: yeah
mandnwong: more or less
keyalyn: Go with Johnson.
mandnwong: but he's got basically no needs
mandnwong: and could probably just stash someone
mandnwong: i suppose
mandnwong: anyone else?
daveyjohnsonxxx: Napoli
mandnwong: napoli?
daveyjohnsonxxx: His C may be a part timer.
mandnwong: true
mandnwong: napoli it is
mandnwong: wood man
hermrulez: done
mandnwong: starting final round #22:
hermrulez: lets exstent rosters to 25
mandnwong: what do u mean?
hermrulez: hav 25 man rosters not 22
mandnwong: we are
mandnwong: this round fills everyone's roster (except yours due to hochevar)
hermrulez: o ok my bad
hermrulez: thats throwin me off
mandnwong: naps takes hawkins
mandnwong: highlanders
mandnwong: remember, this is your last pick now
goobers1995: Proctor
mandnwong: center for ants
mandnwong: should i give him randy johnson, anibal sanchez, chris ray, glavine, henry owens, josh johnson, etc?
mandnwong: he could probably use the RP more
mandnwong: but he also needs another SP
hermrulez: owens then
mandnwong: owens is out for most of the year it sounds like
hermrulez: o
goobers1995: What about JC Romero???
daveyjohnsonxxx: He only has 4 SP. Probably Glavine or Johnson.
hermrulez: glavine
mandnwong: oh right. schilling's out for 1/2 year
mandnwong: glavine?
daveyjohnsonxxx: Glavine most likely to stay healthy.
goobers1995: glavine is safer, johnson has more upside if healthy
mandnwong: ok
mandnwong: sounds reasonable
mandnwong: glavine it is
mandnwong: my turn: sultans
hermrulez: tick tock
mandnwong: i took jensen lewis
mandnwong: walruses
daveyjohnsonxxx: Kotchman for Walruses?
hermrulez: go 4 it
mandnwong: sounds good?
keyalyn: Looks good to me
mandnwong: ok
mandnwong: yeah
mandnwong: chavez
keyalyn: Doug Davis
mandnwong: cory
haysguru2: Soft and calm Elijah Dukes
mandnwong: hahaha
mandnwong: young guns
mandnwong: any suggestions?
mandnwong: maybe an SP?
mandnwong: or maybe an RP since rodney looks iffy
keyalyn: HIs SP looks fine, go with an RP
mandnwong: he's got some injury prone RPs between rodney, lindstrom and lyon
hermrulez: timlin or romero??
keyalyn: Romero. Timlin is injured
mandnwong: is romero ok this year?
keyalyn: better than Timlin
mandnwong: he's doing ok in spring?
mandnwong: i don't see him on the first page of RPs
mandnwong: or should i go for a minor leaguer for him ?
mandnwong: someone who might get the call at midseason (and looks very promising)?
mandnwong: i almost wanted to take him myself
daveyjohnsonxxx: Base on last year, then Romero (new 3 yr contract @ $12M).
mandnwong: but i needed an active RP
mandnwong: he doesn't necessarily
mandnwong: romero?
keyalyn: go with Cla Meredith
mandnwong: he's not available, is he??
keyalyn: according to yahoo he is
mandnwong: ooh
mandnwong: didn't realize
mandnwong: alright, how does that one sound to everyone?
hermrulez: ok with me
daveyjohnsonxxx: Meredith sounds good.
mandnwong: btw, who am i picking for?? lol
keyalyn: young guns
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: slicers
mandnwong: he needs RP too
mandnwong: i guess romero then?
hermrulez: yea
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: yahoo's rankings suck for RPs
mandnwong: sneaker pimips
mandnwong: RP again
daveyjohnsonxxx: How about Linebrink or Farnsworth?
mandnwong: linebrink sounds reasonable
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: turtles
mandnwong: should i just stash chris ray for him?
mandnwong: no real needs
mandnwong: already took napoli last time
keyalyn: Tha sounds good
hermrulez: ok by me
daveyjohnsonxxx: Sure.
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: hounds of hell
mandnwong: for once, he's not on YIM
mandnwong: he's usually on
daveyjohnsonxxx: A team with no needs.
mandnwong: he could use either an RP or a DH
mandnwong: yeah, not any serious needs
mandnwong: but a bit light hitting for Util
hermrulez: anderson?
mandnwong: and iffy on bullpen
mandnwong: since duchs is SP (for now)
mandnwong: is jason hammel SP this year?
keyalyn: Hes been starting in ST
mandnwong: i guess he could use an RP
mandnwong: 5 RPs right now
hermrulez: hes battling 4 the 5th slot i believe
keyalyn: Go with Farnsworth. Hes in a contract year which is the only time hes good.
mandnwong: not really any good bats to plug into DH for him
mandnwong: haha
hermrulez: anderson?
mandnwong: hmmm
mandnwong: who the heck is kevin cameron?
mandnwong: padres RP?
mandnwong: he signed him in another dynasty
mandnwong: i could take him i guess
mandnwong: how's that sound?
mandnwong: padres RP
hermrulez: sure
keyalyn: Thats good
mandnwong: at least he signed him for more than minimum wage in another league
daveyjohnsonxxx: OK. 4th on SD depth chart.
mandnwong: ok, done
mandnwong: wood man
mandnwong: last pick
mandnwong: make it good
hermrulez: done
mandnwong: haha
hermrulez: what?
mandnwong: u got your young gun back
hermrulez: i know
hermrulez: i wnated him back
mandnwong: maybe i shoulda taken him instead of volquez
mandnwong: alright. that's it folks
hermrulez: i took liriano when he was injuried mayb he can turn out to be the same
hermrulez: well im outty
hermrulez: good luck
mandnwong: i guess i'll see about posting the transcript on the proboard site
daveyjohnsonxxx: Good luck everyone.
mandnwong: i'll lock the add/drops for 24 hours
mandnwong: so people can have the option to change their picks
mandnwong: and we'll all wait for a certain set time before regular add/drops reopen
mandnwong: trading can resume
mandnwong: good night, y'all

mandnwong: yeah
mandnwong: more or less
keyalyn: Go with Johnson.
mandnwong: but he's got basically no needs
mandnwong: and could probably just stash someone
mandnwong: i suppose
mandnwong: anyone else?
daveyjohnsonxxx: Napoli
mandnwong: napoli?
daveyjohnsonxxx: His C may be a part timer.
mandnwong: true
mandnwong: napoli it is
mandnwong: wood man

hermrulez: o ok my bad
hermrulez: thats throwin me off
mandnwong: naps takes hawkins
mandnwong: highlanders
mandnwong: remember, this is your last pick now
goobers1995: Proctor
mandnwong: center for ants
mandnwong: should i give him randy johnson, anibal sanchez, chris ray, glavine, henry owens, josh johnson, etc?
mandnwong: he could probably use the RP more
mandnwong: but he also needs another SP
hermrulez: owens then
mandnwong: owens is out for most of the year it sounds like
hermrulez: o
goobers1995: What about JC Romero???
daveyjohnsonxxx: He only has 4 SP. Probably Glavine or Johnson.
hermrulez: glavine
mandnwong: oh right. schilling's out for 1/2 year
mandnwong: glavine?
daveyjohnsonxxx: Glavine most likely to stay healthy.
goobers1995: glavine is safer, johnson has more upside if healthy
mandnwong: ok
mandnwong: sounds reasonable
mandnwong: glavine it is
mandnwong: my turn: sultans
hermrulez: tick tock
mandnwong: i took jensen lewis
mandnwong: walruses
daveyjohnsonxxx: Kotchman for Walruses?

mandnwong: cory
haysguru2: Soft and calm Elijah Dukes
mandnwong: hahaha
mandnwong: young guns
mandnwong: any suggestions?
mandnwong: maybe an SP?
mandnwong: or maybe an RP since rodney looks iffy
keyalyn: HIs SP looks fine, go with an RP
mandnwong: he's got some injury prone RPs between rodney, lindstrom and lyon
hermrulez: timlin or romero??
keyalyn: Romero. Timlin is injured
mandnwong: is romero ok this year?
keyalyn: better than Timlin
mandnwong: he's doing ok in spring?
mandnwong: i don't see him on the first page of RPs
mandnwong: or should i go for a minor leaguer for him ?
mandnwong: someone who might get the call at midseason (and looks very promising)?
mandnwong: i almost wanted to take him myself
daveyjohnsonxxx: Base on last year, then Romero (new 3 yr contract @ $12M).
mandnwong: but i needed an active RP
mandnwong: he doesn't necessarily
mandnwong: romero?
keyalyn: go with Cla Meredith
mandnwong: he's not available, is he??
keyalyn: according to yahoo he is
mandnwong: ooh
mandnwong: didn't realize
mandnwong: alright, how does that one sound to everyone?
hermrulez: ok with me
daveyjohnsonxxx: Meredith sounds good.
mandnwong: btw, who am i picking for?? lol
keyalyn: young guns
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: slicers

mandnwong: done
mandnwong: yahoo's rankings suck for RPs

mandnwong: no real needs
mandnwong: already took napoli last time
keyalyn: Tha sounds good
hermrulez: ok by me
daveyjohnsonxxx: Sure.
mandnwong: done
mandnwong: hounds of hell
mandnwong: for once, he's not on YIM
mandnwong: he's usually on
daveyjohnsonxxx: A team with no needs.
mandnwong: he could use either an RP or a DH
mandnwong: yeah, not any serious needs
mandnwong: but a bit light hitting for Util
hermrulez: anderson?
mandnwong: and iffy on bullpen
mandnwong: since duchs is SP (for now)
mandnwong: is jason hammel SP this year?
keyalyn: Hes been starting in ST
mandnwong: i guess he could use an RP
mandnwong: 5 RPs right now
hermrulez: hes battling 4 the 5th slot i believe
keyalyn: Go with Farnsworth. Hes in a contract year which is the only time hes good.
mandnwong: not really any good bats to plug into DH for him
mandnwong: haha
hermrulez: anderson?
mandnwong: hmmm
mandnwong: who the heck is kevin cameron?
mandnwong: padres RP?

hermrulez: well im outty
hermrulez: good luck
mandnwong: i guess i'll see about posting the transcript on the proboard site
daveyjohnsonxxx: Good luck everyone.
mandnwong: i'll lock the add/drops for 24 hours
mandnwong: so people can have the option to change their picks
mandnwong: and we'll all wait for a certain set time before regular add/drops reopen
