Neither of those guys should be on your team as a Yankee.

I was debating between 1997 Roger Clemens and 1995 Greg? Maddux for my next pick.

Even though Clemens was technically better I was really hoping Skitch would take him cuz I never liked him. Love Maddux, though. But I wouldn't have passed on Clemens if he was still there.

There's definitely a case to be made for 95 Maddux over any post strike season Clemens had, including 1997.

I was going way the fuck off the board if you took clemens the 1st time through. Ripken still would have been there for your second.

Yeah Ripken in the first round is a bit of a head scratcher.

Post strike Cal? Yes.

Maybe there is sentimental value there? I will draft someone in the middle rounds a little higher than I should.

Unless we're factoring time of game, i disagree. 97 Clemens has 12.2 war.. maddux never even hit 10... In the NL.

Those two years Clemens spent in Toronto were unbelievable.

Yeah, that '91 season makes him a candidate for first overall if we were starting in 1990.

That was my assumption of what you were thinking and he was incredible that year.

I know who my next pick is and I don't have a backup with three teams left to pick before me.

Don't you ruin this for me!

If anybody wants to take over the worst team in this, my team is available.
