If only Craig Hansen was that good in real life...

Draft class doesn't inspire confidence this year. Maybe you should've waited a year to beef it up, Provie.

Zumaya...

Confidence in what? Themed and heavily edited drafts will be every 5 years as I said. I only touched up this class. The bottom half of the league should get a solid spec.

Awh, Rosario, one of my original children. Live on in legend.

[Witlon]

I'm not complaining, but I saw last years class before it was edited and it just seemed better.

No biggie.

[Impossibles]

Hmmm, Toronto has a lot of contracts up this year, some big decisions on which way I should head.

This one isn't near the depth of last season's..

[Providence A's]

He means he saw last year's class before I edited it. I had uploaded the rollover, edited the class, and then uploaded again. I don't remember what it looked like. My goal with this class was to make 15 really good specs for the bottom half of the league. The top 13 shouldn't get a great spec unless the others pick relievers or something.

[Kingdom]

Oh. I think.
Then I have no idea. What I am seeing now is what I saw before and it looks fine. Good prospects for the sucky teams and capable ones for the back end of the draft. I think that's an appropriate depth regardless if there had been a super draft or not. I just don't think a shallow shallow draft is any good.

[Providence A's]

This year I edited before uploading. In 2025 I uploaded the site before I edited the class...then I uploaded again.

[Witlon]

...and I happened to be bored at work, so I took a look at the list before I realize it'd be pumped up as much as it was.

[Providence A's]

Yea. I was just trying to explain it. I thought KoZ thought you were referring to this season.

[Impossibles]

It is with great sadness Toronto announces that Leif Schauer has requested a trade.

So long, slugger

[Providence A's]

No worries. Godzilla will pick him up on his way to St. Louis.
