I just read up on it. Apparantly he may be able to play for the Korean team to fulfill his service.

My strategy for this team could very well blow up in my face, but it's something I wanted to try, going speed heavy. Lots of runs, fairly strong averages, lots and lots of SB

Yeah I looked strongly at Choo too. His numbers look really good but ultimately it was the military service that scared me off. I am sure he will find a way out of it, but you never know. Enjoy his 5 category production!

Perhaps you might want to forward your picks to AtomicDumpling. It would be like having your picks in a queue. Just an idea. Posting on here, I guess could be done the same way but might be asking too much of Atomic. If anyone wants to post here but can't because of work, etc. feel free to email your thoughts to me and I'll post your quoted thoughts here for you if that would help.

I used an unusual name only associated with my Sandbox account and I still see in the bulk mail (if and when I look at the subject line) junk email from partners and others associated in some form or fashion with Sandbox. And besides, if need be, I can always delete this listed addy and make a new with np.

I decided why invite a potential problem so please remove your post and or my quote. I wouldn't ever quote someone's email addy in a thread like you did. Oh well, my bad.

Re: League of Reds Nation -- the ultimate dynasty

7.11 Derek Lee
8.2 David Price

Derek Lee is old but he really hits the ball; probably has another 3 nice years left anyway.
