"Frequenting" wouldn't be the word I'd use. At least not in regards to the boards there. I google "_________ 2010 Projections" and it's one of the links on the first page.

While I read the RotoWorld blog frequently, there's a few others I like better. But the mariachi and mustache quote was hilarious.

[Lucky]

The Rotoworld forumns are just so useful for the very reason you said. When thinking about a player and unsure about him you google "_______ 2010 outlook rotoworld" and almost always find a 2 page thread about people hashing out his value.

[Lucky]

Rosters and draft page should be updated.

161. ArmyofOne
162. DevilSoprano [from Mooseheadjack, from fsolomon75]

Round 16
163. Mooseheadjack [from fsolomon75]
--- Keeper: Jason Bartlet (SS - TB) - ArmyofOne
164. Mooseheadjack [from TarheelMike]
165. LuckyLopez
166. Metallikid
167. DevilSoprano
168. AttitudeAdjuster
169. DevilSoprano [from SuperGrover]
170. DevilSoprano [from Mooseheadjack]
171. ThePunisher
172. Lou
173. Gimmickman

Assuming my info is correct Dev has 4 roster spots left and Moose 2, so if neither trades away their picks they should both finish up before the end of the 16th Rd.

[Sparty]

DevSop trades #162, 192, and 216 to GimmickMan for #199 (2010), 14th round pick (2011) and 2010 2nd round MiL pick.

Well, I haven't picked in six days. Here goes...

162. Shaun Marcum (SP - TOR)

[Pun]

I've got MKid's pick 166 if Lucky goes tonight. I assume he and Moose will pick since they will be on during the shows.

[Lucky]

Tradey Trade.

Lucky deals a 2011 14th Rd pick and a 2011 18th Rd pick to Moose for picks #163 and 164 and a 2011 23rd Rd pick.

I'm currently running around the house but I'll get my picks together in the next half hour or so. Just need to take a little time with those 3 picks and make sure I don't do anything too hasty.

Screw it. The name of the game is upside, versatility, and insurance. And picking an aging veteran who I don't love but who is on the board literally more than 100 picks later than 5 pro ranking sheets have him and which I'm hoping having the DH job in Texas really helps out.

163. Travis Snider (LF, RF - TOR)
164. Chase Headley (3B, LF - SD)
165. Vladimir Guerrero (DH - TEX)

[Mikey]

Headley was my backup plan if Cantu fell through. And Vlad's a steal this late, given his upside. Had I not had three first basemen by the time the 15th pick rolled around, thus filling up my utility slot, I would've grabbed him a few rounds ago.

[Lucky]

Yeah, I've been passing on him because I hate drafting a DH. But Headley's a platoon type player since he hits terribly in Petco. Snider's a question mark for playing time. My lineup kind of looks like

1B: Dunn/Garrett
2B: Zobrist
3B: Reynolds/Headley
SS: Reyes
IF: Garrett/Headley
LF: Braun
CF: Kemp
RF: Garrett/Snider
OF: Jones/Snider/Headley
DH: Vlad

So I figure there will be a ton of daily roster movement for me this season, at least in the early going, for matchups, home/road games, and hot hands. Lots of frustration when Vlad rides the bench and hits 2 HRs because he went 0 for his last 15.

But I have him ranked on 5 pro lists at 132, 119, 108, 106, and 86 so him sitting here at 164 (which is more like 224) seemed crazy even with the DH and health concerns. So I just had to pull the trigger because I couldn't decide on a 3rd guy and I figured if I let Vlad go another round and then he had a monster season I'd kick myself.

Snider's a big upside prospect I hope breaks out and Headley's back up for if/when Reynolds falters. Between the two of them hopefully things work out for me at 3B.

Read an article the other day where the immortal Rickey Henderson claimed that Rajai was gonna steal 80 this season or some bullshit.

[Lou]

I really did not expect this to get back to me until I got home later tonight. I don't want to hold you guys up, but I'm not really prepared right now. I would have just defaulted to current Ranger great Vlad, but that is no longer an option.

[Attitude Adjuster]

You have 12 hours. Use them. It's not like we're behind on the draft.
