Joey Wiemer, MIL.
Just started to draft him since I didn't see him on spreadsheet and did a double check. He is spelled Weimer in the spreadsheet.

Are you having memory issues or just not paying attention? Excuse me, I was checking the roster. I have paid very little to no attention to the draft other than to see if it was my turn.

I drafted DJ Herz in MLBSA. Don't think for a minute I don't know that young man's sex appeal.

Xzavion Curry P Cleveland
This is both one of the stupidest and awesomest names I've ever heard.
Starting to get pissed off how well the Committee is drafting for the vacant Cardinals. That's going to be trouble in a few years.

I like the Frazier pick by the LA Angels. He had a huge power surge last year. In between spewing obscenities about Joe, Brian and I discussed Frazier last week. I like the value here of the selection.

I like the value here of the selection. Thanks, Ed! I was torn between him and another guy. Hoping I made the right choice... As for Colby White, I gave him another look this morning before selecting Fraizer. Those numbers are sick.

Had it narrowed to 3 players for my pick. A guy who could help this year, but had an uncertain future, and then two prospects. I went with the shortstop just due to needing more in my system with a greater chance of sticking at the position. Colby White was the "guy who could help this year" I was looking at. I'm surprised a 115 ERA+ projected RP lasted this long. Excellent pick here.

I'm surprised a 115 ERA+ projected RP lasted this long. Excellent pick here. The only reason I didn't look at White more seriously here is because the sim will likely use him all weird and give him 40-50 innings. I really wish we had more control over the bullpen in DMB.

I had Nolasco listed as a guy to follow on my list. Hadn't read anything to set him apart yet (but I haven't read everything on him), but I had read enough to know to put him on my list to track. I'll be interested to see how he pans out.

Leeper is another great "help-now" pick. I had him right behind White in terms of immediate bullpen help in this draft. Solid pick.

Chances Ben Leeper never makes it to 6th in the sim before being ensnared in a To Catch a Predator episode of Dateline: 75%. JIm

Leeper looks like he would have an AB patch tatted on him and snort Oxy. Also drive a diesel and like to roll coal.

Hey guys, really sorry my pick isn’t in yet. That is unlike me. I got up at a bad time where I haven’t had a night at home in days. And last night I had to drive a county over for a viewing for the son of a friend of mine, who took his own life. That was just all kinds of awful.
Barring any disasters, I should be able to narrow my list tonight, and have the pick up no later than tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!

Sorry. This is very frustrating. I had checked that file like 10x, as it seemed like all but the most recent Round 2 guys have been added.
I get that everyone is volunteering their time, but if we could keep the roster file up to date during the drafts, that would be great. I’m at work now, but will have another pick up tonight.
Sorry for Jimming up the draft. Again.

Oh for f’s sake. I literally even tried every misspelling I could think of before drafting him too. Didn’t think about that one.
Our public schools are failing, and I am a part of that fail.

JIm You didn't think of the "h" sound being spelled with an H? Every misspelling you could think of? C'mon, you're better than that. Also, coincidentally, could have been a typo as the H is next to the J on a standard QWERTY keyboard. Also, lots of fail sauce for this pick. Probably already cursed whatever player you select now.

Fake news! I actually said "kid won't last long because you can't get good street tacos in Pittsburgh LOL" Which is a commentary on how terrible Pittsburgh is as a place and barely touches on the fact that Miranda loves tacos.
