4th round pick becomes MVP!

March 31, 2015 at 07:10PM View BBCode

[url=http://simdynasty.com/player.jsp?mode=player&playername=nobody&id=11021173]This guy[/url] on my team just took the MVP in my league. Just curious how many others out there have had MVP or Cy Young players who were taken in the 3rd round or later?

Nice try with the fake player card Matt but please don't post these type of fictitious threads as they are really too easy to identify as frauds.

All the really smart owners in the game know an OS18 player can't possibly improve that much and almost everyone knows that pretty much any draft choice outside the top 12 is worthless ie: playoff firsts.

I've never had a player outside the 2nd round win a major award for me, but I did have a 3rd rounder that played for me who made the Hall of Fame, [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?id=1498418]Randy Boss[/url]

no MVPs, but this 4th rounder won a batting title amidst 3 consecutive .900+ OPS seasons...10 years after I waived him twice in the first month of my pay-league career :(

there must be some late-round or even undrafted save-compilers that won a CYA or 2. MVP is specialer though. I really wish there was a historical list of award winners in each league, like the Postseason History page.

(from the fourth round is awesome, especially if it came from a cp league)

This UNDRAFTED player was an All-Star, Gold Glove (at two different positions), and ended his career 10th in all-time steals.

What's fake about the player card and fictitious about the thread? This is a real thread about a real SimD player on a real SimD team that I own.

I completely disagree, I have build dominant teams for a long period of time with 2nd and 3rd rounders. It's a very common misconception that you need to tank to acquire multiple top 5 or even #1 picks in order to build a good team.

This board really needs a sarcasm emoticon, my post was meant to poke fun at the many, many experts on the site who make the claims that I highlighted, that playoff picks are worthless, that players cannot possibly improve 6 grades etc.

Not so special, but my only [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?player=nobody&mode=stats&id=11005818]Triple Crown Pitcher[/url] was an early second rounder.

I did once have a waiver wire player win MVP, but that was a Beta league.
