I prefer first or last in snakes so I can pick twice in a row.

You wait the same amount of time as any other pick-

It’s about the caliber of player you get though. Like i said, if you get that wheel pick at 10, you get 2 top tier players.

While it’s not guaranteed if you pick first then 21st

 

[Cwalker]

You pick first, you probably get Mike Trout who is the best player in baseball but you might not get the second round pick you want

Isn't that what a... draft board... is for?

Yes but I’m just talking preferences. I’d rather pick later in the first round than earlier. Especially cause if you’re waiting that long, someone can swipe your top 2-3 picks for that round

Yeah it's mostly just me preferring to get two high quality players quickly than one GOAT player and then having to wait for like a B+ or possibly A- guy for your second pic depending on how many people are in the draft, 10 won't be as bad as 12 obviously. Plus the earlier you pick the more you risk your first pick being a bust killing your whole team

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Going last doesn't usually hurt me, but man if I lost my top pick because 9 people went ahead of me I'd be devastated.

I'm talking wrestling though because I've never done baseball before.

Y'all should just take members of the Bomba Squad.

I've spoked to Zero over on the over forum about rescheduling the draft for next Friday at 9:00 CT. He's very cool with it.

Since all of us seems to agree to reschedule the draft, I've made it official! The draft will be next Friday at 9:00 CT.

I just thought of a good team name for your team @LadyHotrod: The Walls of GerriCo (Gerrit Cole).

It just popped up in my head yesterday when I was headed home from work. Catchy team name, eh?

 

[Chris]

The only reason I never liked team names that were player specific is bc I always felt I needed the player on my roster to make sense and I didn't want to wait until after the draft to make a team name

In a money league one of my WC buddies ran last year, my team name was Acuna Matata. I kept the name despite not actually having Acuna on my roster.

Fun fact: Kawhi Me A River is one of my fantasy basketball team names, and the fact that I do have him on my roster.

Just a friendly reminder that the drafts in two days, Friday night at 9:00 PM CT.

If you don't have the app, I suggest everyone in the league to download the ESPN Fantasy app, so you can easy access to the draft and league without having to go to the website and all that BS.

Oh shit thanks for the reminder bc I still thought it was like a week away....guess I'm definitely going in blind instead of doing fantasy drafts like I'd planned

After SmackDown right?
