The hope is for Manny Pina to be the last player decided on in this round.

although now I might be fighting with Asterisks on a Catcher in the next round..... see you there?

My point was people get their hopes up and then someone jumps in at the end. I still need catching PA's as well so if I don't get Pino I'll be fighting with you over later catchers.

So, just to be clear, you waited until the 24th hour on purpose? 

Edit: I don't want to start a fight here.  It's all good.  Pina at $2.6M... what a weird offseason.

This doesn't look good for those of us that are still looking to get some PAs from catchers in the next round or two. :(

Before FA started, I had a feeling about this.  The catching market is extremely thin.  Next week should be interesting.

The Pina thread has been hijacked.

I think this year's catcher market is a good example of where 1 year contracts would be helpful. Specifically, I don't like the idea of 1 year contracts in free agency. Part of the fun/challenge with our 2 and 3 year contracts is that we have one "known" year and one or two "unknown" years. If we have 1 year contracts for free agents, an average player with an out of this world season might auction for Mike Trout prices because I know I only need to commit to that one great year.

I would like to see 1 year contracts for guys I would call waiver wire pickups. Once free agency is over, I could pick up something from the scrap pile of players left and sign them to a 1 year contract. It would be a way to fill a need with a crappy catcher (or what ever need you have) for this season without needing to commit long term to the guy.

I actually didn't wait on purpose. Until yesterday I didn't even realize Pina was a catcher. I thought all the catchers were off the board for this week. I picked up my computer after I got my 5 year old to sleep and and started looking at the few folks that were left and realized he was a catcher who I still have never heard outside of the MSB world.

The ‘- C’ after his name in the Topic wasn’t enough of a clue that he was a catcher?

Hee hee

I also should point out that if you download the league file I created “teams” for each of the nomination weeks. So that way you can see all of the players available each week in one spot. I started doing that last year, but I forgot to remind people of it this year. Better late than never I guess.
