How did I miss that trade. I drafted Cain twice in the last 3 days as either a 5th or extra OF. I was going to drfat Matt Cain too just so I could come uop with a catchy team name like Adam drafted a Cain–or maybe if this is Singapore then please cain my cheeks.

Thu, 22 Mar 2012 19:24:21 +0000 http://razzball.com/?p=24224#comment-1276085 @Grey, and there will be a post at the end of the year authored by me and Johan where these quoted words will come back to haunt you…

“I think this year’s best case scenario is Johan throws 170 IP and gets about 140 Ks and around a 3.50 ERA. Basically, you’re hoping for Vogelsong/Mike Leake-type projections.”

Especially since you’ve already secretly hedged your 120 inning / 3.75 ERA / 80 K / 7 W prediction from a few weeks ago (which my co-owner and I ignored in our keeper decisions). :)

50 innings, 60 Ks and .25 better ERA. Now that’s progress! Granted, you were talking about upside vs. your actual prediction, but it’s a start.

Final lines in my estimation: 11/3.45/1.20/120 in 150 innings. Upside though, looks like this to me 15/3.22/1.15/150 in 180 innings. And Mike Leake can take that to the bank! ;)

Lewis and Norris are a coin flip in a shallow league which it sounds like you’re in. If you want Norris, go for it…

Was savvy and traded other keeper-level players for the 2nd pick in the draft.

There will be several keeper-worthy players to pick there — would you choose Starlin Castro, Jay Bruce or Greinke there?

Thanks Vin. I was going to do the same. Where can I join this league Vin. I dont see it.
Can you send me the code and I’ll send it on to the rest of the league that never was members that turned up for the draft.

2 have indeed pulled out. Plus the 1 invited that never joined.

The email he used an organizer is a hotmail account, so I don’t know if he checks that.

I have set up another league in case it is needed.

I mentioned a few that i could drop to get Adams or Thornton.

It’s being reported that he’s got some tightness in his forearm and bicep and he hasn’t thrown in two weeks. This is not excellent news.
