And Rich, I think Mark told me he wanted to sign Smith for three years. He said that -17 OPS+ n '01 is deceiving, because Aleck shoots up to a 45 next year and an astounding 87 in 33 PAs in '03!Originally Posted by leecemark

I will be off-line for awhile. When my turn comes up, please assign the K. Kumquats the batter with the most ABs, based on the data in Post 996, and assign him a one-year contract. Thanks.

At this point I will offer to all owners the option to have DMB autodraft the remainder of your picks. Any owner who wishes to do so for their team please post here. Of course any team wishing to continue to make their own picks can do so til the draft ends.

Autodraft for me. This is especially welcome because I'm about to start the long trek down the east coast from Halifax to Baltimore tomorrow and I don't want to hold up the draft when we're this close to being done.

No worries Lew. I unexpectedly had computer axcess so just went ahead and made the pick.

If you don't do your job, what they're paying you for, why should they pay you? You just can't put in eight hours, that's what a lot of people don't realize about athletes. Very few people realize the pressure." Dave Kingman

I still have specific positions that I'm trying to get PA's for so I'd rather continue drafting for the Angels.

The Lighthouse Point Bums select Gus Weyhing- 1 year. Gus had a good career- unfortunately, 1901 was his last- and poorest- season. The main reason I'm taking him, though, is that he had not one, not two, but three terrific nicknames!

As via post #1005 the Kumquats will select...Frank Genins

Auto draft is fine, including the makeup picks. I've got enough PA and BF to cover the 1901 season and there isn't much left of any value, so the rest are just roster fillers I guess.

Thanks Lew! It's the first time I'll be driving this far alone (really, it's the first time I'll be driving more than 100 miles on my own) so I'm a little nervous, but I can do it.
