Go ahead and make the pick. Tyler will get around to updating it whenever.

Ryan Braun is an outstanding player at a weak position (according to kyflyfisher). He is solid pick at #8 overall. The one concern I might have with him is that his low walk total could hurt his OPS a fair amount, but he hits so many homeruns that the damage should be minimized if not nullified.

Yah nothing wrong with taking Ryan Braun at all. As far as giving up too much, who knows? If Ryan Braun helps get you a championship then it will be well worth it.

No problem, for some reason I put your team as big johnson in the draft board. I will change it Wednesday, but the big draft boards are up to date right now.

What I said, Tom, was that if you pick a LF in the first few rounds it was going to cost you. Ryan Braun being the exception. I didn't mean to imply that it was a weak position.

what do you think of my pick guys?

Hard to argue with MVP and the price is right but I think you could have waited

I agree, good player but too early.

thats a really good pick just like mine. but i dont think he can live up to his stats from this year. He plays for the Giants, and had a huge workload this year. I doubt that he will post anything as good as what he did this season. I'll even throw in a shutdown towards the end of the season

Yeah you may be right. Actually had him slotted middle to late 2nd round. But the way players are sliding I just couldn't resist.

I just got home and I must say I'm a bit suprised by some of the recent draft picks. It seems like reaching a bit for a 2nd round talent at a cheaper price has become the "hip" thing to do. Meanwhile, I'm still sitting here with ARod and his $8 salary. I better win this year or I may be in trouble. Luckily, with the way the draft has gone thus far, there's still plenty of talent left.
