Billy Hamilon

That 1894 season was really something special.

[Norah]

Mo Vaughn

[BigRedLedbetter]

I think it's my turn?

[Kaius]

[Lament]

Did chud pick early? The time stamps don't add up for phil and #BRL's time to have both run out.

Maybe he just said fuck it?

I'm going back to my nap now.

[philpritchard]

I know the benches are pretty minor here, but seriously, how has Jeff Bagwell not been drafted? I'll take him.

[Lament]

Do we set lineups each game in response the pitching matchup or just once for the series? I really hope the former.

You set them for each individual game.



Side note: Since the site runs on advanced stats from player's complete seasons, you guys know you can't use someone's 2014 season until it's over, right? I guess we didn't say it explicitly when we said "post-strike," but all of the numerical year groupings we discussed ended at 2013, so I thought it was implied. If this seriously affects people's picks, let me know and we'll deal with it. I think the Billy Hamilton pick is the first one that seems to obviously be for his 2014 season.

He was up last year. Stealing bases and shit. Maybe it was just for pinch running purposes? There is a guy on my list just for pinch running purposes.

[Lament]

Or we can do something like post-strike through today (1995-2013)

So actually I guess we did establish it was 1995-2013.

If anyone has made any picks specifically for someone's 2014, let me know.

I see him as having 22 plate appearances last year. I'll have to go on whatif and see if he's in there. He might not be with that few plate appearances.

Yeah, he's not in there.

Do you have a replacement pick, numbers?

Actually, the same issue is there with Dellin Betances. It looks like the rest of the picks are fine.

phil, do you have a replacement pick for Betances?

[The Argonaut]

Carlos Marmol

[philpritchard]

I guess I'll replace Betances with Greg? Holland. I wanted Jake McGee's 2014 too, but he's worth keeping for 2012.

Sorry, hadnt noticed there was an issue with this. I picked Hamilton based on his pinch running last year, but if he's not available, gimme a sec and come up with a replacement.
