  1. WE don't collect b/c that sucks. whoever wins DM's pay information at the end and everyone pays on the honor system. There has never been a stiff in 10 years. One year derka got irritated b/c he only collected $140. Then he was like- oh- I don't have my $20. It was funny. At least that's how I remember it.
  2. You pick in between Derka and HotB. Sorry.
  3. OK- That's all 8 of us then in there. Lets go with draft starting at 9:00 am tomorrow. Order: Huckleberry, Precupice, Ztexas, Wulaw, Derka, Bartles, Horn on the Bayou, Bartles, Zepol
  4. HOrn on the bayou is good- we can wait until tomorrow morning and he's fun to have in. 1 more needed.
  5. My buddy that's the skipper at Georgia State has them at 15-6 and 3-0 in conference. Up to 81 in the RPI after a pretty weak non conference weekend slate. They've played Georgia twice and blown 4 run leads in the 6th inning both times to get whopped. The difference in bullpen, especially in middle relief, is pretty big. They also lost a game to Georgia Tech in the 9th inning. Other than that clubbing baby seals and now sweeping South Alabama to open conference. Sun belt looks like a 4 bid league- with 5 maybe slightly more likely than 3 to my eyes. I think they are better than the big 12 and big 10. Not 100% positive on that but somewhere between 3-5 in baseball as hardest conference. Adding Coastal Carolina and Southern Miss in the last couple years have moved the Sun Belt from a mid major to a high major (clearly way behind SEC and ACC) but on par or better than anyone else imo conference wise.
  6. Explanation for those who haven't watched over the years. We each pick in a snake draft 8 teams in the NCAA tournament. You get the points for your team winning multiplied by the round. Add them all together for a total score. So- if you draft UH as a 1 seed there is 21 possible points: 1 point for winning round 1, 2 for round 2, 3 for round 3, for for round 4, 5 for round 5 and 6 for round 6 if they win it all. If you pick Texas as an 11 seed and they win the round of 64 you get 11 points. If they win in the round of 32 you get 22 points for that round for a total of 33 points. So- picking an 11 seed that makes the sweet 16 is more valuable than a 1 seed that wins it all. Picking a lot of 11 and 12 seeds also means you are potentially out before the end of the first weekend. Need two more still. It's fun. Huckleberry nerds out and does recaps and updates and makes it more fun.
  7. 2 more needed.
  8. I know @Derka wants in so that’s 4. Very little interest in hoops in general for obvious reasons this year/ but if 4 more people want in claim your spot here and we will kick this draft off lunchtime on Monday.
  9. We got 10 or 11 days still right?
  10. Okert getting ready to have greatest season in the history of bullpens.
  11. I thought I saw 1 walk and 1 k the other day for his total spring stats. Which is pretty remarkable when just about every plate appearance ends in contact.
  12. Dana was raving about him a couple weeks ago. Said it looks like it’s all come together for him.
  13. I am absolutely convinced he will hit at the major league level. Is that a 100 ops+ guy or a 120 ops+ guy? Dunno. But I bet he’s at least an average bat.
  14. Such a glorious 48 hours. Will remember it fondly.
  15. We do like a $20 buy in.
  16. I really love all the queer eye for the baseball guy shit yall go through every offseason. saw the jump in post count and got excited for baseball talk but it’s fashion show. I’m just grumpy because there’s still 17 days until life has meaning again. This should be where the Texas hoops team takes us through the finish line in the ncaa tournament but those dudes. Man that sucks to not have a team in the tournament.
  17. Spring training update.
  18. Dezenzo will hit in the bigs. I don’t know if that’s more like 100 ops + or 120 but he will be at least a league average bat.
  19. That guy meaning CB Buckner.
  20. Cams one out today he got rung up by CB Shit for brains Buckner. Welcome to the bigs kid. That guy sucks.
  21. Any interest? @Huckleberry you in? Rest of the crew? Shout out here if yall are in.
  22. And now we are all the way down for the day. Son of a bitch.
  23. Back to up 12. If it wasn’t Friday I might expect reprice for better with another good hour- but it’s Friday so probably not.
  24. Mbs up 20 points. Unemployment up to 4.1. The good run continues for MBs
  25. Ok from someone who would know on the internet on another site: Walker out 4-6 weeks will not be ready by opening day. my conjecture: This is awesome if you are a Cam Smith truther like me. Paredes to 1B, Cam starts the season at 3B and gets a solid 3 week look. If he belongs then Walker comes back mid to end of April and Paredes goes to 2B or Cam goes to RF, whichever position needs the most help. We have a lot of guys who are ready to see if they are ready. I like 3 week looking at stuff while Walker gets healthy.
