Also, I agree with Ben that the draft isn't as important in huge leagues.

Smart trading and waiver pickups usually make the difference. And I find that more fun and engaging instead of just drafting a team and barely touching it all season.

I figured some people might forget, so that's why I bumped the thread this afternoon.

I dont know. Remember our last league where he auto-drafted and ended up with six catchers in the first eight rounds or something? We didnt exactly have a small league either with like 16 teams

That's weird.

I've autodrafted in Yahoo leagues before I and ended up with a fairly decent team each time.

I guess that's some sort of technical glitch that happened.

I think it's because some of the catchers were listed at multiple positions. Like Saltalamacchia was at 1B and C.

We were all making fun of him during the draft guessing which catcher he would pick next. And then he came on during the end of the draft and he was like "WTF!!!"

Nope, that was auto-drafting sucking a-rods balls.

And in a huge league, drafting is more important in a small league. 20 teams x 23 players=460 players. Its harder to trade when yahoo handicaps you, plus waiver wire picks become harder when there are that many players off the board.
