[Mar 23 2013, 1:25 PM] Tim McLeod: didn’t post a better year than Rodney’s 2012, but Percy a far better closer over career

[Mar 23 2013, 1:26 PM] Paul Sporer: and the TB time

[Mar 23 2013, 1:49 PM] admin: Hanrahan 15 Siano
[Mar 23 2013, 1:49 PM] admin: Joe Mauer 21 Erickson. He had 19 bid, too.

[Mar 23 2013, 1:55 PM] bkopman: have to be a subscriber though
[Mar 23 2013, 1:55 PM] admin: Adam Jones 29 Erickson
[Mar 23 2013, 1:56 PM] admin: Kinsler 28 Shandler
[Mar 23 2013, 1:57 PM] admin: Kipnis 28 Siano
[Mar 23 2013, 1:57 PM] bkopman: Kipnis price seems high
[Mar 23 2013, 1:57 PM] admin: Jose Reyes. How high?
[Mar 23 2013, 1:58 PM] admin: Reyes 31 Leibowitz
[Mar 23 2013, 1:58 PM] Nittanychris: Agreed Kipnis is too high, with Pedroia at 29
[Mar 23 2013, 1:58 PM] bkopman: No to mention Reyes at 31
[Mar 23 2013, 1:59 PM] admin: John Lester 20 Colton/Wolf
[Mar 23 2013, 1:59 PM] admin: Kipnis was 26 in Labr. Less in CBS.
[Mar 23 2013, 1:59 PM] admin: Zobrist 25 Berry
[Mar 23 2013, 2:00 PM] bkopman: anyone surprised that Lester went for $20?
[Mar 23 2013, 2:00 PM] Nittanychris: Zobrist at 25 is better value than Kipnis at 28

[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] Scott Gilroy: Love the Bautista buy
[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] admin: Frieri 9 Shandler
[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] KaaashMan: There’s so much Lawrie love even after burning people bad last year, confuses me.
[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] Save_The_Beard: upside
[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] Save_The_Beard: in a great lineup
[Mar 23 2013, 2:08 PM] KaaashMan: he had that last year.
[Mar 23 2013, 2:09 PM] Save_The_Beard: I agree with you
[Mar 23 2013, 2:09 PM] Save_The_Beard: I think he is overrated for this year
[Mar 23 2013, 2:09 PM] admin: Jennings. 25 Colton Wolf
[Mar 23 2013, 2:09 PM] Save_The_Beard: I want to see the production before I pay a premium for it
[Mar 23 2013, 2:10 PM] Save_The_Beard: Jennings is the same for me as well
[Mar 23 2013, 2:10 PM] admin: Lawrie was 25 and 27 in CBS and LABR. 22 is cheap.

[Mar 23 2013, 2:17 PM] admin: Billy Butler 29 Moyer
[Mar 23 2013, 2:17 PM] admin: I like King Felix at 24
[Mar 23 2013, 2:18 PM] bkopman: Morrow at $19 seems more reasonable given last year but I think Lester could rebound

[Mar 23 2013, 2:47 PM] lanceluther: the old draft/chat program was better…
[Mar 23 2013, 2:47 PM] admin: J Saltalamacchia 11 Sheehan
[Mar 23 2013, 2:47 PM] admin: What was better about the old one?
[Mar 23 2013, 2:48 PM] admin: Trumbo 21 Berry
[Mar 23 2013, 2:48 PM] mpane21: I disagree. I like this chat program much better. Also, great admin work!
[Mar 23 2013, 2:48 PM] lanceluther: could scroll all the way back to the beginning of the draft- it was bigger too
[Mar 23 2013, 2:49 PM] admin: Berkman 11 Leibowitz
[Mar 23 2013, 2:49 PM] Jason Collette: you can click the blue square in bottom right to expand it

[Mar 23 2013, 2:51 PM] lanceluther: That helps… but last year I was able to read the commentary the day after the draft. Mike Lombrado always has pearls of wisdom.
[Mar 23 2013, 2:51 PM] mpane21: There is also great work being done keeping the Google doc with updated rosters and prices. So you can also use that as a reference for auction history.
[Mar 23 2013, 2:51 PM] admin: Lance, the text will be posted tomorrow.
[Mar 23 2013, 2:51 PM] admin: Plouffe 15 Colton Wolf

[Mar 23 2013, 2:53 PM] admin: Erickson: When they said you need an anchor I’m not sure that’s what they meant.

[Mar 23 2013, 2:54 PM] admin: Adam Dunn 14 Shandler
[Mar 23 2013, 2:55 PM] admin: Eric Aybar 19 Michaels
