Thank you Ed!
Thank you Mike!
Thank you bidding gods. $7/3 for Albert just barely wins over a $7/1. Hoping he hangs on to his abilities through 2017.

One note for Mike. I think I should be at $26/5 after signing Albert. Was at $33/6 on roster pages before second round bids, and I think it was correct.

First and foremost, I will NOT match Addison Reed. Removes any match option questions from my results.

I will sign all of my winning bids.

3. Ian Kinsler 5/3
4. Brian Dozier 5/2
5. Danny Santana 4/3
8. Koji Uehara 3/2
10. Russell Martin 1/5

I should now be at 25 on roster (1 slot open), with Zack Wheeler on the DL.
I should now be at $112 salary.

NOTE: I won't start adjusting the message board rosters quite yet. Will give it some time for corrections to come in to the bids.

It does seem peculiar but that's the way we set it up.
We could change it and make them all 1/1 contracts for future years.

Yadi's team will sign Dee Gordon and Francisco Rodriguez.
Will pass on Jimmy Rollins.

I will sign all of my winning bids: Machado, Gordon, Cabrera, Hughes and Odorizzi. I'm still waiting on the match decision on Myers. Thanks.

I will not match on D'Arnaud or Myers
