Draft Day: signs of desperation

With the Illowa APBA League draft convention one day away, it’s beginning to be crunch time.  I have six pitchers and just one graded starter on my pitching staff at this point.  The only good news is that I have six draft picks including the #1 pick, for our upcoming rookie draft (David Price, anyone?).

I just sent this email out to league members. 

 

I have the following available for a draft pick:

Mike Cameron
Scott Podsednik
Jonny Gomes (I hate to do this, I love the guy)

also Joe Crede

talk to me.. best deals in town!!

 

Is this a sign of desperation?

 

… I didn’t think so.

I am an IT consultant by day and an APBA media mogul by night. My passions are baseball (specifically Illini baseball), photography and of course, APBA. I have been fortunate to be part of the basic game Illowa APBA League since 1980 as well as a frequent participant of the Chicagoland APBA Tournament. I am slogging through a 1966 NL replay and hope to finish before I die.
