Draft Day (Hour 4)

7:02pm Our journey toward the first minimum salary player gets closer to the end. Octavio Dotel goes for 20 cents.

7:15pm We've taken a break to stretch ... back at it with Macier Izturis on the board!

7:34pm Vernon Wells finally tossed out there. One of the last good players out. We're getting to the nitty gritty. I'm in on the bidding, but bowing out soon. He's at the $3 mark right now.

7:41pm We've just had a Tike Redman reference. We're at that stage of the game.

7:43pm To Jeff: I am blogging! Doesn't mean I can't bid on Dana Eveland!

7:45pm I've tossed out JD Drew to see what happens. I had to live through him last year, not looking forward to it again. He's approaching $2-land quickly today.

7:50pm The run of the injury-riddled players continues with Scott Rolen on the board. It's a slow burn to the $1.20 mark, and it ends there.

7:54pm Hideki Matsui makes a late appearance. I go up to $3.40 on him in hope he can help my teetering offense. I'm down to needing 5 players with $2.50 left in salary. Bargain hunting time!

7:59pm And the injured players keep coming, with Milton Bradley out there. Boy, he's an attractive player if he could stay on the field. Just like the other guys above.
