I think those kinds of numbers (FIP, K/BB) are more important in this situation. It's pretty widely accepted that WAR isn't particularly accurate in evaluating relievers.

Oh, I tend to agree.

So BRL sent me a queue of picks, but his first two choices are relievers. He can't want another reliever after getting Benitez, right?

He might. I'm thinking about carrying as many as nine relievers.

Actually, his list is nonsensical if he doesn't want more than one.

I hope there are hashtags in it.

It's just one long hashtag with all the names in it

From now on when he picks, he should have to paste this...

with whomever his latest pick is added at the end in all capital letters.

Seconded.

Lance Berkman

Adam Wainwright

I take Trot Nixon

BRL takes Octavio Dotel

Uh oh. I heard chud was really counting on getting him this round.

The main reason I took him is I feel like we are getting to the point were chud will actually take him.

if we can get phil in here, we might get into round 21 tonight

I messed the header up. We're actually still on round 19.

There are only 60 picks left though.

Who would have thought CHUD would be the one to kill the dream of getting to round 20 tonight

I tweeted him and everything.

He's reeling from Trot Nixon getting picked.

I'm running to the store, but in case he shows up and picks, I should be back in 15-20 minutes.
