It's just like real MLB... everyone loves their picks and is surprised that their players dropped to them...

Grichuck would have been gone if he got to my pick though. Bummed he didn't make it.

He was my pick at 30. Part of me wishes we'd let Dan stay oblivious to the draft, hah.

Favor returned. You just Andrew Olivered me right in the face. Nice snag.

I think a lot of us were wondering when he would finally go. I know a couple of GMs early in the third were hoping he'd make it to them, but it sounds like you would have scooped him up anyway.

I would have taken Oliver over Walla in the 2nd round, but with Brothers, I couldn't take a chance on 2 RP's in the first 2 rounds.

I was looking at him with 50 and 52. Was hoping he'd fall further, but honestly I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did.

Well you guys all made me happy that I was proactive then.

Uh, Dan. Oliver wasn't the only guy you had on your draft board was he?

Ugh, apparently, since that was three hours ago and he still hasn't picked. The draft is through 56 picks, not counting the current one. 54 of them took about 7 days; Dan's 2 and JB's 1 are about to be right at 3 days.

I wouldn't care, except that I'm out for two weeks as of the 16th and was really hoping to make my two late third rounders at least.

85 BlueJays Carlos 9-Ramirez 3/19/88 C

Excellent pick. I almost took him at 79, but couldn't pass up Poythress there. I was hoping Ramirez would be a major sleeper that would get overlooked.

Well, your wish of not picking came true.

jesus, Dan...would it kill you to use the fuckin queue?

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 4:29 pm**

If you're ready and the Brew Crew is too, with BP and the Braves on auto we should be able to fly down to JT at 94.

Maybe he went to set up the queue and it killed him...

That better be his only excuse.

I'm ready to draft, Im just waiting. I hope Brett setup his queue before he left, otherwise it'll be a long few days.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 4:43 pm**

which brings me to my next question, with the queue set, does it draft instantly? or does it wait a few hours?

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 4:48 pm**

The Braves last couple picks have been auto and the clock says they picked immediately after the last pick. Same minute.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 7:28 pm**

ahh cool.

3 more hours!

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 8:46 pm**

Yes sir I got 4 guys left on my queue so I should be set for my next spot.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 8:53 pm**

haha, looks like Brett didnt set it up.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:04 pm**

Good lord people...we get 24 hours for a pick. Let people be...good lord...

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:06 pm**

It's just a little upsetting that it has to take this long to draft. I just don't understand with the tools available why people are taking to the 22nd hour to pick.

Red Sox draft queued and activated.

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 9:36 pm**

I've deleted all the names off my queue in preparation to spend 23.9 hrs deciding who to pick when my next pick comes up in 48 picks.
