jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I was upset beforehand, I didn't see the Webb addition until later, I sent you a few PM's an e-mail and resent the trade in which you squashed and NEVER got back to me, whatever, what's done is done. Not to mention it's Friday and beautiful out, Cheers! Make sure you drink good beer this weekend!
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I feel like Ross is underrated by a lot of people. Guy is only 27 and has been outstanding since joing the rotation midseason last year. Mid-90s heat and a wipeout slider. I offered him to a couple of other teams and was a bit surprised at how little he was valued. If he makes 33 starts this year with the same results he's had over his last 30 he'll start to get a lot of attention. Leaves me without a starting second baseman this season, though I'm more retooling for 2015. Hopefully Profar is ready for next season to step in as my starter at second base. BTS gets a good bat at second base who'll provide above average production from that position. Ross' advanced stats were really good. His xFIP and SIERA weren't that much higher than his ERA and his SwStr% is third best in all of baseball. Hopefully he holds up as a starter, and pitching in San Diego is icing on the cake.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I don't love Ross. The K/BB and OBPA are mediocre and he's an injury risk. Prefer Kendrick.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I think the high walk rate is what turns a lot of people off on Ross.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It is ridiculous how lucky I was to get Tanaka instead of Boxy. That is all...
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It is ridiculous how lucky I was to get Abreu instead of Boxy. That is all...
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 The waiver draft has been stacked the last 3 years (Darvish, Cespedes, Puig, Ryu, Abreu, Tanaka, top 50 prospects). Not looking so hot for next year though.

Not looking so hot for next year though. I'm sure one or two players will emerge out of the woods(or ocean). Kenta Maeda may be a guy. Or Alfredo Despaigne.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Looking at the Japan league, Randy Messenger looks like he trying to make a comeback. SO rate has increased each of the past 5 years. Still only 32. Next Vogelsong?
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 He wanted to come back last offseason and couldn't find a suitable deal. IIRC he signed a multi-year deal in Japan.

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 NJH! Just to make sure... When do the unused draft picks explode into the abyss? When the pick comes up or at the cut down deadline.
NorthOf49 Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) NJH! Just to make sure... When do the unused draft picks explode into the abyss? When the pick comes up or at the cut down deadline. Tomorrow at 11:59 PM Eastern, at least that's what the email says. If I make any cuts I'll post them a few hours before then.

Ya, I saw that. But I thought it was discussed about it being when the pick comes up. But maybe I just dreamt that.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It is ridiculous how lucky I was to get Abreu instead of Boxy. That is all... :'(
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Pick 37 and/or pick 56 are available for an upgrage on any of my first four picks (4,6, 14, 28).
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 So, anybody interested in Eddie Butler?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 So, anybody interested in Eddie Butler? I'd rather roster Jo-Jo Reyes.
torontofan Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 So when did we decide to draft? Starts June 8th at noon. I'm guessing Eastern time.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Starts June 8th at noon. I'm guessing Eastern time. Sheeeeeeeit. I'm not prepared at all.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 You clown, I read this and didn't double check the email, it was Saturday at 11:59 Isn't that what he said lol?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Still open to one more pick deal so I can release the sloth that is Manny Banuelos (looking at you silvergun/havok).
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 lmao @ North holding 4 prospects and 13 picks #wastingassets #marketinefficiency #billybeaneoftheDDL
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 He said tomorrow at 11:59 pm, ie: tonight, Sunday. Now you got me trippin' balls because I just read the e-mail and I still think North is right. North said 11:59 PM Saturday night but now you're saying Sunday. Who's right?
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 lmao @ North holding 4 prospects and 13 picks #wastingassets #marketinefficiency #billybeaneoftheDDL Wait, North is aware we don't have a compensation system for excess picks right?
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 Sheeeeeeeit. I'm not prepared at all. I pretty much know who I'm taking with each pick at this point but i'm hoping to bump up some of the earlier ones to avoid surprises.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I pretty much know who I'm taking with each pick at this point but i'm hoping to bump up some of the earlier ones to avoid surprises. Dammit.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 lmao @ North holding 4 prospects and 13 picks #wastingassets #marketinefficiency #billybeaneoftheDDL Can we vote to have 27.4 man farm rosters?
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 :'( I'm sorry Boxy. Please don't cry.
