Draft Weekend

Another Draft has come and gone. I can't decide if my favorite moment was hearing Mrs. Pig ask the Snakeman if he had a Wii... or hearing him reply that he did not.

I'll add a note soon on the rules we voted on. The deadline rule passed (with no consequences this first year) and the reverse draft order proposal did not.

Updates on the website are coming slowly but sure. Be patient. The Standings Page has already been updated (plus it is on Big Innings already).

Thanks to everyone who helped this weekend to go so smoothly. The FFTs and Oilers for the hotel arrangements... the Chief for the yearbook... the Fungoes for the shirt and for graciously handing over the Higdon to its rightful owner... the HEAD INMATE for the schedule... the Commish and FFTs for preparing the CDSOMBB league... Dennis Gray for drafting for the Tweeners... the Zapper for being the first one to report his results...

Buckeyes & Inmates did not report their results, yet.

This from the Fungoes...
Fungoes started off the 2008 season by losing our first four games. Two to the Bees and then the first two to the DVs. It took a ninth inning rally off of (you guessed it) Bobby Jenks for the Fungoes to claim win number one. We gave that back the very next game when the DVs rallied for 5 runs in the ninth off of (you guessed it) Jon Papelbon!

Weirdest stat for the Fungoes at the draft......we only rolled two games!

Kahlil Greene leads the Fungoes with 5 HRs. Zimmerman is the team leader with 17 RBI.

Wakefield has 4 wins and Papelbon has 8 saves.

This from the Rhinos...

Polanco was 5-6 missing out on a 6-6 game on a 1-14 single chance,of course he rolled a 15.

A-Rod all ready has a 3 HR game.

Out scored, out hit and out pitched the Nads but still managed to loose 7 games We had 3 block the plate situations in which we were tagged out when going for the win and oh ya we were thrown out at home on a 1-17 tag from 3rd once. Putz then proceeded to lose 3 of them in extra innings. Two balls hit to Polanco and one to Tulowiski were through the hole for singles, oh ya did I mention that they were consecutive. Izturis hit .636. Amazing how you remember the little things when you get whoop-up on.
