    It would be very LION-esque for Z to get Auto'd on the first pick.

      I've been on autodraft from list since yesterday afternoon. I don't know why it isn't working. Pick is in now.

        first time using this utility so I'm not sure, but I don't think it works with the first pick.

          Wow. First two picks weren't even on my draft board. For the record, I only had my Top 10 listed so far, but neither made it. Interesting.

            My in-game shows BAL at #9. Downloaded the league file update this morning.

              I had Fitzgerald as the 55th best player in the draft and Howell as the 5th best.

                My scout is in all likelihood an alcoholic.

                  My guy had them at 14 and 10 respectively, but we have a limited scouting budget so, you know, once the blow and hookers are paid for there's not much left over for actual player scouting.

                      Gave Fitzgerald the spotlight on this issue of "The Future's So Bright". No doubt his starts look like a #1 pick.

                        Agreed, but we're talking about 4 starts and 28+ innings. That's such a small sample size.

                        I'm in no way knocking the pick at all because I'm not seeing a consensus top of the draft player this year. He may very well develop into a good starter, just not sure at this point how much stock we can put into the stats the feeder league guys are putting up. Time will tell though.

                          After seeing those two picks, I'm afraid to pick.

                            Wilmington takes SP Hector Pagan. I had him the 14th best player overall. Solid pick.

                              I think Fitzgerald is going to be a beast. He was my target at 1.8.

                                I liked Hector Pagan too, good pick.
