A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[TRM]

Even with that considered the offers have been atrocious. I have one legit fair offer, but the player isn't a good fit. Several teams have offered players who are tangibly worse than Lynn, on par but 6+ years older, or an awful combination of both. I'm gonna take my Lynn and go home.

 

Hahaha. Where on the spectrum does our conversation land!

[torontofan]

I chose Henry Urrutia.

 

Up Next:

114 SpeedyGose

115 JurassicKats

116 Head for Miles

117 BALCO PharmTeam

118 London Slayers

119 Oppo Taco

120 Jurassic Kats

[Dr. Dinger]

Only 5 picks remaining.

[Fearthedoc]

I am going to be so thrilled when this draft concludes.

[KingKat]

It finished an hour ago.

 

Not really we're still waiting on pick 116.

 

Edit: Never mind the last pick was just made.

[Dr. Dinger]

Sooooo many of these guys will get cut next year.

[The Cats Ass]

Yup. I've never done a league like this, but I'm expecting like 75% to get cut before the draft.

 

I know of one player I could cut already.

[Dr. Dinger]

I dont think its that high. There will be plenty of graduations, but I still think about 1/4 will be dismissed to Non Prospect Land.

[Dr. Dinger]

I know of one player I could cut already.

 

Same. Richie Shaffer is looking like a dud.

[z3r0s]

I've tried to balance the ETAs with my picks, four or so of my guys will be up by next year. It'll be interesting to see if people burn 25-man spots for prospects before next year's draft.

 

I know I'm likely going to have to go with some quick to the majors types in next years draft. I've got some likely graduates in my system, but I chose a LOT of young talent this year.

[Dr. Dinger]

BPA 4 Life

[z3r0s]

BPA 4 Life

 

exactly! Why do you think I picked Jesse Hahn!

 

... hmm

[The Cats Ass]

Same. Richie Shaffer is looking like a dud.

 

Miles Head for me. I can't believe I named my team after him..

 

Next year, bring on the "War Puigs"

[The Cats Ass]

Hahahha.....P.S. DIAF this week!

 

Between the two of us we have 14 players on the DL.

[Laika]

Anyone out of the race and building for the future want to buy way low on Jon Niese? Could use a solid vet SP to help me in this season's push.

[KingKat]

Same. Richie Shaffer is looking like a dud.

 

Vogelbach for me. The white Prince Fielder goes from low A to high A and loses nearly 300 points of OPS. Mike O' Neill is very drop worthy as well. His insane 2012 is looking like a total outlier and he's really old for AA.

[Dr. Dinger]

tinstaa1bp.

[Laika]

Paulino and Cowart will probably be dropped if they don't make big strides next year. Austin and Mondesi have been meh. I traded Zunino.

 

Right now, my only good draft pick from Feb looks like Stroman. Hypothetically, I'd probably trade my entire February crop for my June crop.

I really wanted Vogelbach in the last round. Was pissed when you scooped him up.

My draft was badass: Byron Buxton, Ryan Zimmerman and James Shields. Marisnick also has like a .400 wOBA in AA now that no one is paying attention.

[KingKat]

I really wanted Vogelbach in the last round. Was pissed when you scooped him up.

 

Now you can have him for a bag of balls or one of your own busts.

[Dr. Dinger]

The Rays fan in me could never cut HJL before seeing how he does with a new knee.

 

He's got Nakajima upside.

[Laika]

I like the guy. Not much power to speak of, but there's potential for a high-OBP SS who can steal some bags and score a ton of runs. His 15 games in AAA this year gave me a considerable boner.

 

Elvis Andrus upside!

[jaysblue]

Haha thanks! I need to do what you did and trade a pitcher for a power bat. My guys aren't hitting any home runs, even though four of them hit 30+ last year.

 

Alvarez could be made available. Send me an offer.

[jaysblue]

Dat 33% K-rate and 0.300 OBP

 

.513 SLG and 19 HR's! I'll take the 30 + HR's this season.

 

Mark Trumbo last time I checked was never a .OBP machine.

 

Also, Alvarez is capable of a Chris Davis breakout possibly in the next year or two. Not saying its a guarantee to happen, though its not out of the question. Both have tremendous raw power and high K rates/low BB rates.

[jaysblue]

.300 OBP isn't bad in the current run environment, it's merely a little below average.

 

Last season his .OBP was .317, so hopefully he can get it into the .330ish range which is possible and tolerable with the power output he provides.

[Dr. Dinger]

Right. A lot of people still see a .330 OBP as average, but that isn't the case. These days if you're above .300 with some pop you're a great player. .317 is pretty good.

 

I'll take a 120 wRC+ regardless of what the OBP is.
