A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Dr. Dinger]

I actually got Parker + Jesse Hahn for my late 1st. Parker equaled out to a mid-second round pick.

 

I don't think Hahn is anything, but I do think Parker is the best asset in the deal.

[Dr. Dinger]

Everything I read on Barnes this year had an arrow pointing down.

[The Cats Ass]

I don't think Hahn is anything, but I do think Parker is the best asset in the deal.

 

I'm actually a fan of Hahn. As long as he can stay healthy. He has a nice fastball. And he's a Ray.

BP ranked Hahn 6th on their Rays list, ahead of Taylor Guerrieri, and said "Hahn is legit, with a late-innings fastball that he can maintain into starts, a deep secondary arsenal that he can throw for strikes, and a good overall feel for pitching." There's definitely something there, worth a pick downgrade if you have the MiLB space.

[The Cats Ass]

This is 100% not going to be enforced.

I don't get it

[Dr. Dinger]

BTW, Cats Ass was going to take Abreu at #1 anyway lol

[Laika]

Yup

[Laika]

BTW, Cats Ass was going to take Abreu at #1 anyway lol

 

Yup, pointless deal.

 

If someone is trading you #1 for #2, and asking for you not to pick Abreu, then you KNOW you'd f***ing be getting Tanaka anyway.

 

Oh well!

[Dr. Dinger]

Yup, pointless deal.

Oh well!

 

Pointless deal... UNLESS z3r0s just bamboozled Cats Ass and decides to break his gentleman's agreement and take Abreu. I fully encourage this.

[Dr. Dinger]

Okay... apparently Cats Ass doesn't own #89. He owns 84 and 85.

[z3r0s]

not supposed to be enforced, just making our convo public so if I did break it I would be subject to full flaming . We talked about him wanting Abreu prior to the deal.

 

CatsAss is just so trade happy I wasn't confident he wouldn't deal the pick away to someone who wanted Tanaka (who I want more than Abreu anyway). Hence the deal. It didn't really cost me much anyway.

[Dr. Dinger]

CatsAss is just so trade happy I wasn't confident he wouldn't deal the pick away to someone who wanted Tanaka

 

Fair point. I prefer Abreu, personally.

[z3r0s]

Okay... apparently Cats Ass doesn't own #89. He owns 84 and 85.

 

hmmm. I'd assume he is ok with swapping the #89 and #85 but I'll ask him... we'll make it work.

btw, did that change before or after our deal? I could have been reading from the wrong column I suppose

[Dr. Dinger]

You must have been looking at Jaysblue's column. I'm going to process it as 85 and you guys can correct it if that's not the case.

[z3r0s]

Fair point. I prefer Abreu, personally.

 

Certainly could be better (especially as an everyday player). Pitching is a big need for me however and I think the value gap is small enough that need can be a strong factor in my preference.

[The Cats Ass]

85 shall be fine.

[z3r0s]

big swing in my favour

[Dr. Dinger]

Certainly could be better (especially as an everyday player). Pitching is a big need for me however and I think the value gap is small enough that need can be a strong factor in my preference.

 

I've been saying all along that I think it will be a weak MiLB draft, so I guess I can't really knock you trading a late 3rd for a 5th in order to ensure you getting the player you want, with pitching being a need.

[Dr. Dinger]

Must have been a damn good pitcher, knowing what I know.

[Dr. Dinger]

So with the league getting busy again soon: Realmin has been AWOL for two weeks from another league we're in without saying anything to anyone, and has not responded to an e-mail I sent him over 10 days ago. Has anyone heard from him? We should probably get confirmation that he's still in the DDL before the cut down date is here.

 

I could have sworn he checked in a couple weeks back. According to his profile:

He's got a pretty good team so I'm not too worried about him abandoning it.

He wanted to make sure he gets the player he wants incase I get trade happy.

[The Cats Ass]

I think my roster should look like this.

 

C - Wilin Rosario

1B - Empty - Jose Abreu?

2B - Daniel Murphy

3B - Brett Lawrie

SS - Everth Cabrera

CF - Carlos Gómez

OF - Justin Upton

OF - Empty - Yasiel Puig?

DH - Josh Hamilton

BN – 4OF - Leonys Martín

BN – 1B/3B - Chris Johnson

SP1 - Yu Darvish

SP2 - Cliff Leee

SP3 - Julio Teheran

SP4 - Clay Buchholz

SP5 - Marco Estrada

SP6 - Tyler Skaggs

SP7 - Jarrod Parker

SP8 - Jenrry Mejía

SP9 - Juan Nicasio

RP1 - Jonathan Papelbon

RP2 - Ernesto Frieri

 

Which means these guys are all players I'd move for dirt cheap!

 

Jeff Locke

Josh Beckett

Colby Lewis

Matt Magill

Tommy Hanson

Yusmeiro Petit

Edward Mujica

Álex Colomé

Dustin McGowan

Álex Rodríguez

André Rienzo

[The Cats Ass]

My pitching staff last year ended up pretty bad. It was Kershaw + DL Guys + s***. I hope it's a little better. And of course there'll be holes. I always end up having 5-9 guys injured at any given time.

[jays_fever]

I never confirmed that 4 way deal..VETO!

[The Cats Ass]

Is there a better 1-3 in the league? I think your pitching will be fine.

 

Dingers - Fernandez, Sale, Sanchez?

 

I think it may be a toss up.
