Hader should be in that rotation! (Eno agrees with me)
Mike Podhorzer
9:36
couldn't get Gohara outta my head because of you guys
Mudrock
9:36
Former Mariner prospect gohara to u guys
Jeff Zimmerman
9:37

Craig in CHI
9:37

Jimmy Nelson gonna get picked? I probably need to do more research, but he confuses me because he was good last year but torn labrum are no joke. Could he be a good risk/reward pick late?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:38
He's a 9th pitcher or reserve pick. Can't be counted on
Zinkie stealing Greene there
Erik
9:38
When did/will we enter the "get your guy" phase of the draft? Opportunity cost has to be pretty minimal at this point, right?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:39
I think it started for some. Others are still going off value
Andrew
9:39
What did you think of the Jose Martinez pick?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:39
Not my favorite. Playing time is a huge concern for me
Jack Bandit
9:40
I'm wondering now what an LABR team drafted by a FG chat would look like, in the vein of Twitch Plays Pokemon
Erik
9:41
Is there really anyone left on the board for whom either playing time or skills isn't a major concern?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:41
Not sure
And Grichuk to Zinkie is not surprising
AW
9:42
We'd probably miss every pick due to every entry into chat being modded. Sad for us :(
Mudrock
9:42
Haven't heard much on flowers this year would have wanted robles
Jeff Zimmerman
9:43
Robles is my #3 hitting prospect. I wish the path to playing time was clearer
9:44
How the mighty have fallen with Felix finally going.
Erik
9:44
Why does Gleyber go ten whole rounds after Acuna? They'll be up at similar times and Gleyber only projects slightly worse, but plays a more important position.
Mike Podhorzer
9:44
zinkie has stolen all my picks...there's a reason he's one of the best
AW
9:44
Greg Holland at this point is extraordinary upside
Erik
9:44
Should Devenski be going before Chad Green?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:45
I think so. Devenski is more likely to fall into some Saves
Nice value with Chapman
Mudrock
9:46
I think because they missed Olson hey other Chapman.  Oakland is the sleeper this year in the AL west
speaking of fallen
9:47
is hunter pence still a thing?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:47
Thing ... yes. Useful fantasy asset ... not so sure.
Erik
9:47
Let's roll things all the way back to Zinkie's surprising Kershaw pick at #3 overall. Would you rather have his top 2 (Kershaw/Donaldson) or the two guys at the same positions who went two picks later (Arenado/Strasburg)?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:48
I like his picks a lot
AW
9:48
What is a realistic plate appearance total for Dahl? Was he good value in round 14?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:48
Not sure. Could be around 200 if he doesn't get going and is demoted
AW
9:49
Arenado and Stras not even close
Jeff Zimmerman
9:50
Decent values in this round. Chatwood and Wacha as pitchers. And Happ
Owners might as well take a chance on Hanley and Crawford
9:51
Nice catcher run
Mudrock
9:51
Jp Crawford ?
Jeff Zimmerman
9:51
Brandon
Erik
9:53
Tons of catchers these two rounds. Do any stand out from that group? Alfaro clearly has the highest ceiling but also the lowest floor, but that might be what you want this deep in the draft.
