The 2001
Strato Draft Review
The following is a lighthearted review
of the 2001 Strato draft. This is for entertainment purposes only. Every team
gets equally ribbed on, although some of you guys pulled more bone-head picks
then others!!
The 7 Commandments of Drafting
1.
Thou shall
not draft lefty relievers who only shut down lefty batters… There are
virtually no lefties who can hit lefties.
2.
After 3
years of being labeled “a prospect”, he is no longer a prospect… he simply
SUCKS!!
3.
Thou shall
try to keep at least one starting pitcher in your “keepers”, unless you want
Irabu as your ace.
4.
Keeping a
reliever going into the draft is like having sex with a fat girl... it can be
fun until the other managers see you with it. —that’s not good!!
5.
Just because
you have a bunch of draft picks doesn’t mean you know what to do with them.
6.
If you make
a trade for someone…at least keep him… or expect to be laughed at around the
league.
7.
Don’t give
away draft picks like water… Unless you enjoy getting slapped around like a
rented mule every year.
Just a few quick thoughts….
The draft basically went well, with some surprises as always. Joe did
another great job coordinating everything… I, still, can’t even begin to
fathom how he manages to announce draft positions, sort players, announce
available picks, and draft for his own team…. It’s simply amazing. Now, onto
the first team!
Acadiana Mud Puppies

David Wells Lefty # 1 stuck on that sorry team in Canada
