ok im sorry i might be the only person that feels this way but come on. this draft is RIDICULIOUS. this league is supposed to be realistic your supposed to get your entire minor league system. this rule is so stupied it shouldnt be up to us which freaking highschool player we get based on BA top 100 thats stupied im an 18 year old i dont go over america scouting other 18 year olds. please this is ridiculous let the pros who get paid to draft first year players draft them. most people look at sickles but those top players could be on different teams already its so confussing and makes everything so intertwined its totally unecissary

1. it causes confusion for new gm's trying to get there bearings

2. WERE NOT REAL GM"S we dont have a staff of people telling us what this kids good at and so forth

3. all we have to go off is a few sentences written on a kid


we should just forget this draft and let our teams draft them for us and deal with what comes. the only positive thing i can see about this would be (hypothetical) if lets say then royals were terrible in real life so they get a high pick but bomb here they keep gettting good prospects sent to them. but lets face it not all sickles top prospects pan out so to base somthing on that is ridiculous also considering we no very little about these prospects anyways

oh joe blow hit 15 hr with his highschool team i like that im going to draft him.....please come on


and joey this isnt just because the amount thing so dont say so i honestly dont think its smart or fair i might be the only guy who does but im just saying

I totally agree with this, and I agree with all the points that MarinersGM said, even though he is a dumbass.

I mean really now, some of us have lives, I can't spend 10 hours a day scouting prospects and seeing who is the best young guy. Give me a damn break.

First off, the First Year Player Draft is not going anywhere, it ADDS REALISM, come on.

The only problem I have with you Mariners besides being friends with makers is that you dont seem to research anything before posting.

We have done two FYPD and both went well, so if your not up for the job, let us know now.

Why does Mariners keep addressing me like I know him, I dont know you, only ppl I know call me Joey, thats all :) (((this part was a part joke but the rest is serious).

The First Year Player Draft is not going to be removed so if you (Mariners) don't think your up for the task, well you need to let me or Brewers know.

Like I said, its been VERY successful and if you look at the list of guys I have lost I should have a major problem with it but I love it because it gives me control over who I draft for 3 rounds.

I dont know Matt, if your friends are guys like Mariners, I dont know if we can be friends :)

I bet if Mariners would DO SOME RESEARCH he would realize that the guys he got in the two FYPD are pretty good players but lets not focus on that, right.

Instead he knows he does not have Aumont and in his very little time here wants us to get rid of something that most of the league enjoys doing every year and there is a lot more info that you can find than a "few sentences" FYI.

If your a true baseball fan you should be excited by this because it allows so much more control on your franchise.

first off, wow you have to be kidding me. because i dont like one rule you're trying to tell me im not up to somthing??? why dont we let people talk about it because out of the four people that ive talked to 3 dont like it and your the one that does. i didnt slam you in anyway but your slamming me wtf is your problem. by doing that you come off as a pompous ass. Why cant you respond to people with a helping tone not one that your better than them. i was just talking about a rule and who knows anything about young players you did not adress that.

a perfect example of somthing stupied about this draft is tim Lincecum if the giants were in this league odds are he wouldnt be on that team...hes the FACE of the organization

so im not going anywhere so get over it

and im good freinds with matt and he calls you joey so out of hearing it i started my bad...wont happen again rangersGM

I would say 2 years of successful drafts says more than three guys who dont like it, just saying. Its proven to be very successful and fun for those of us here since day one who put the time into putting the rule together for it after DISCUSSING IT.

And what irritates me is all your childish posts with Matt since you joined. Its one thing to do it now and then but you do it way too much, I understand your probably in HS like Matt but damn, a little maturity would be nice.

So what your saying is your too lazy to do a little research and make a pick for your team that benefits you more than what your team actually got, gotcha now, got to love this generation of person. Its not like we are doing all rounds, its 3 Rounds.

I'm sorry Joey, but did you just call me Immature.

Because if you want to try and burn me, the burn can come right back.

You better watch what you say. And if that's not what you meant, I suggest you fix it.

Just because I am in high school doesn't mean I am immature.

And newbie? My friend I've been doing this leagues for how long with you? Wow. Kiss my ass.

Are you fucking serious?

I guess I gave you too much credit Matt because I thought you were much smarter than the crap you just posted.
