Yes.  My understanding is that knowledgeable owners will be wearing
Green and Gold.

Lovin the pre-draft chatter!  While I should be spending these precious
final hours doing last minute prep, I am off to go check out this
radioactive river and imbibe in the nectar of the Irish.  Which reminds
me, is it a requirement to wear green to the draft tomorrow?

Happy draft eve!

But that's what makes this interesting, isn't it?  Is this what you
should know or what I want you to think you should know?

And Shandler says Norris is a mortal lock to put up at least $11 worth
of value.  He loves this kid so much, if Bud were a few years younger,
Ron would be trying to adopt him.  I think if you start the bidding at
$13, you might be able to scare the rest of us away.  Go for it.

Who says you aren't telling me anything I don't already know?

By the way, how confident is Shandler in his valuation of stud
fireballer Bud Norris?

Yep - I was right.  But you didn't listen then and you won't listen now.
But this time, don't look for me to dump to you.

Is this like two years ago when you told me pre-draft that I needed to
get Verlander or Lester or both in order to win?

We all remember how that turned out.

Skippy,

Now that you've completed your exhaustive analysis you must also see
that the only way Rich doesn't win is if he fails to purchase 1 or 2 of
the big dogs at Corner/Middle, right?

I prefer "inexpensive," and I pass no judgments on who should buy what
players.  I leave that to greater minds than mine (i.e., everyone else
in the league).

But even your cheap software leads one to the inescapable conclusion
that Rich needs to buy one or more of the top guys at corner and middle,
right?

Fascinating.  I assumed my inferior, $19 software would produce values
that were only useful in a relative sense, but it has nearly the same
inflated values for all of the players listed below.  Thanks for the
update, Jeff.

Seeing that most of us at the draft table will be utilizing Rotolab, I
have a few questions: 

1.  Miguel Cabrera is listed as being worth $36, with an inflated value
of $42.  If John is going to start the bidding at $45, you've really got
to let him have him at that price, right?

2.  Felix Hernandez is listed as being worth $22 with an inflated value
of $28.  My instincts tell me that he's worth far more than that and I
know that Skippy really wants him.  How much is too much?

3.  MOT Ian Kinsler is listed as being worth only $21 with an inflated
value of $25.  How much higher than $25 is it worth going to outbid
Skippy and his attempts to price enforce?

4.  Rotolab says Trevor Bauer isn't worth even a $1.  We all know that's
horribly wrong.  But how high do I bid up John before it starts to get
crazy?

5.  Shane Victorino is listed as the most valuable outfielder even
though he had a poor season last year and isn't getting any younger at
32 years old?  Did Shandler make a mistake?

6.  It's crystal clear that anyone in Rich's shoes would know that he
had to buy one or more of the top guys at corner and middle.  Rotolab
says that the best players are Cabrera ($42), Pujols ($36), Reyes ($36),
Beltre ($29) and Longoria ($27).  Since Rich is almost certainly going
to win anyway, do I: (i) let him have these guys at these prices, (ii)
bid him up until I run out of money or (iii) count on Kerber to take
care of the dirty work?

So many questions.  So few answers.  I'm still trying to figure this
out, so I'll probably have more questions later today.  TIA
