There was one guy at the draft who was set to take Delmond with his first pick in our 12 round supplemental/reserve roster round robin. Our draft is an auction to fill our starting 22 man roster, then a traditional style draft for the reserves based on last year's finish. Since I finished 2nd to last, I picked Delmond with the second overall pick. Across the room, the guy dropped his notepad and looked at his partner with shock. I heard a curseword, and the guy buried his head in his hand for a couple of minutes. After the draft, the guy came up to me and asked to see my supplemental picks-all of which he had slated on his board to take!
I got to tell you folks that this site is the absolute best place to be for roto. I never would have known about Peralta/Gomes/Shelton/Young/Liriano/Granderson/Hermida/Myers/Ray/Howard.
To see the looks of incredulation of the faces of my league mates (after years of finishing last or near last) was priceless!
...all due to the cafe!
Thanks again!
