sweet!!!....cant wait to look these over in detail?.....is the biz doing your draft write up or is there anyone else that want the honor?

The draft hasn't been complete for 24 hours and I already feel that this is gonna be a rebuilding year for the Punishers. I am somewhat happy with my team at this point and might even have a shot at finishing near the top of the league....as long as HGH and roids are made legal for players to use. In other words, A little luck will go a long way in spite of my obvious lack of relief pitching along with my band of injury prone cripples. I plan to keep the MASH unit at the ready

Here's a recap of how I saw the draft unfold

Corporal Punishers
Rd Pick Player Pos
1 10 Santana, Johan (NYN) P - Elated to get this stud here...Would've settled for Peavy
2 15 Upton, B.J. (TB) OF - Tough pick with Ortiz still on the board....Part of the Master Plan
3 34 Hafner, Travis (CLE) -DH - A bit of a suprise but see him bouncing back to "06"
4 39 Verlander, Justin (DET) P - Took him a bit early but he wouldn't be around in Rd 5
5 58 Abreu, Bobby (NYA) OF - Good default pick ...had Markakis targeted until he was sniped
6 63 Cano, Robinson (NYA) 2B - Took him early but consider him highly under valued
7 82 Zimmerman, Ryan (WAS) 3B - Another default pick with Mauer gone..
8 87 Young, Michael (TEX) SS - Kind've a "give in" pick...best non-P value on the board
9 106 Sheffield, Gary (DET) OF - OUCH...Had Liriano targeted and sniped again
10 111 Swisher, Nick (CHA) 1B - This pick made up for taking Sheff to early
11 130 Hamilton, Josh (TEX) OF - Changed my plan for RP and went with Band Aids
12 135 Myers, Brett (PHI) P - Took him 1 Rd too early...Should've grabbed Soriano here
13 154 Chamberlain, Joba (NYA) P - With Soriano, Street, & Capps gone went with NBT
14 159 Lidge, Brad (PHI) P - Needed a closer - desperation setting in
15 178 Lilly, Ted (CHN) P - Wanted Gallardo...took Lilly as a back-up
16 183 Harden, Rich (OAK) P - Moved him up a round to prevent against more sniping
17 202 Jackson, Conor (ARI) CI - Glad to see this guy still here
18 207 Escobar, Yunel (ATL) MI - Had this guy valued as a 14th Rd selection
19 226 Wood, Kerry (CHN) P - ..Glad Lou's giving him the job even if he doesn't deserve it
20 231 Lugo, Julio (BOS) DH - What's this guy still doing on the board..Galdy take the SB's
21 250 Pettitte, Andy (NYA) P - Hope he doesn't misremember how to pitch
22 255 Heilman, Aaron (NYN) P - Need holds....Still need holds
23 274 Gordon, Tom (PHI) Bench - Wishing for more holds
24 279 Bradley, Milton (TEX) Bench - A great BU OF for when Hamilton goes down
25 298 Cueto, Johnny (CIN) Bench - Got caught up in the hype...The next Liriano???
26 303 Cabrera, Asdrubal (CLE) Bench - A hope and a prayer
27 322 Gutierrez, Franklin (CLE) Bench - Batting 2nd in that line up???
28 327 Jurrjens, Jair (ATL) Bench - Liked him as a Tiger...small but pitches big!!!
29 346 Ruiz, Carlos (PHI) C - After Mauer no sense grabbing a C too early

Didn't pass the test with flying colors but didn't flunk it either.....I am most disappointed because I had an auto pick selection on either side of me but didn't use it to my fullest advantage.

I'll take a solid "B" for the draft

Nice recap of your leagues draft. Well done.

Many Thanks...1st time I ever submitted an article like that...

Looks like I picked a recap format that agreed with you. lol
Ton of work inputting all that info.
But it's worth the effort.

Now I wish I had found a site that had custom rankings so I could have entered walks and holds into the equation. Oh well. That's what trading is for.

I really liked your draft recap format...No sense reinventing the wheel...unless of coarse you're going to carry it around on your shoulders or somehing....Now where did I put that bottle opener???

Who expected Wright to go 1st?......it was him or Hanley, and Wright has more protection

I think that Wright was an outstanding pick...Right after Santana
