Teams are all so good. This was difficult

8- Matthew C

5- Chicago

1- Erik Bedard

[J W]

Difficult, yeah. I'd like to say "subject to change" but I'll stick with my initial gut.

8 - ian2813
7 - Erik Bedard
6 - AstrosFan
5 - Tyrus4189Cobb

[ian2813]

So that's everyone then, right? Is Matthew C. the winner?

[AstrosFan]

The rows are the voters and how they voted for each person by points. So Matthew C gave ian2813 four points, John Shoemaker two, etc. User names are abbreviated, but it's easy to tell who's who.

Congratulations, Matthew C.! I've participated in four drafts so far, and either you or BigRon has won each one! You did it drafting from the last position as well, so I guess it proves that it's not necessarily a disadvantage to pick at the end of the first round.

At least I have J W's first place vote to hang my hat on!

I am very excited to have won. A little surprised too. I probably would have voted myself 2nd or 3rd. Good day yesterday...my second son was born!

Congrats on the birth of your child and winning the draft. I had a hard time voting on this one. I really feel every team was pretty even. You couldn't go wrong picking anyone in the top 4.

[Ben Grimm]

Good day yesterday...my second son was born!

Congrats Matt!

Hey, double congratulations! A new son and winning an online baseball draft! How do you top that?

[Matthew C.]

How about your favorite team not winning a 19 inning game with all of your star hitters going 0/8 or 1/8?

[AstrosFan]

Just like the Cards not losing a 20 inning game a couple years before that? Congratulations on the birth of your son. I realize he's less important than winning this draft, but I imagine he's special in his own right.

You would seriously vote yourself only second or third? That makes my first place score in your list even more special. I will always vote myself first, because I am that type of person.

I like my pitching and defense, but really feel out-manned on the offensive side by you..and your staff keeps up with mine.

I meant "losing" not "not losing" of course.

[John Shoemaker]

Congratulations Matthew!! - I knew I wouldn't win but I hoped I wouldn't finish last - but I did.

[AstrosFan]

I meant "losing" not "not losing" of course.

So did I. It was a joke.

[Matthew C.]

So did I. It was a joke.

I know - still wanted to correct my mistake.

[ian2813]

I guess now that we're done with this draft, we should all head over to the New Draft League thread to discuss what the next one should be.
