    Re: 2008 mock draft selection thread

    Two of mine weren't drafted at all today, and my 1st rounder went 115.

    I'm not as good as last year.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98

    I don't know about 5 rounds, maybe. But what if we keep our own teams and sorta have a simulation farm system. I hope that makes sense.

    Okay, okay . . . so I copy-and-pasted the wrong line on my draft board . . . just shoot me.

    Yeah, I guess so. The only other one I'd make an argument for is lollipopcurve.

    Still pretty early. There were 3 rounds and handful of major leaguers. The high schoolers are still just 21 years old.

    Cool I'll get the pick up in the next bit. Should we somehow make this thread or another thread selections only so there's no random chatter inbetween picks for people scrolling through? I'm sure many people will post reasoning behind their picks so it might be annoying for those to scroll through 3-4 posts of conversation inbetween each pick no?

    Maybe a discussion thread and a pick thread like the All-Star draft you guys did? Just a thought.

    2008.

    Final result is post #259.

    One thing I can deduce from these mocks: OBM is the Reds GM. OBM, are you and Dick Williams on the same page?

    I'm too lazy to do it, but I would like to see a scoreboard on major league WAR awarded to see who wins these mocks.

    redhawk61 drafted Posey, who's worth 29.6 WAR by his lonesome. He's the runaway winner here. Yet cincninco snagged Gerritt Cole and Sonny Gray out of HS (both went in rd. 1 three years later) in addition to Robbie Ross. That's pretty amazing, and worth 19.9 WAR so far and mounting.
