Why did you cut him? I probably would have cut Matt Joyce first; slim chance he plays for you in the playoffs and he's not a keeper.

 

I use Matt Joyce a lot. He has a hit and SB this week, and is the only bat on my bench with Jennings shut fown.

Oh I didn't realize Jennins was shut down. He's been kind of a bust.

 

One of many, many disappointments this year.

 

Actually, behind Braun, Joyce has probably been my most valuable bat.

My favourite story line from this year might be how shockingly terrible BTS' offense has been

Well at least he's got Abreu now, and he's a beast. However I don't see TTC's pitching being elite next year. Lester/Iwakuma/Fister isn't a special Top 3 for me.

Surprised someone below Dinger didn't snag Benoit. Free draft pick in the offseason.

 

Damn. Not sure if I was below him or not but I'm terrible at checking the waiver wire. I would have definitely at least tried to snatch up a free closer if only to open up some trade scenarios. I was vactaioning in Alberta last week which doesn't help but I'm very negligent about monitoring waivers regardless.

Of the 4 guys you just mentioned, I'd wager that at least two are replacement level (in this league) or in the minors by this time next year.

I wonder if min is losing interest. He doesn't really post here anymore and he only made 10 roster adds all season long, this after a relatively inactive offseason IIRC.

I'll take the trade off. I can piece a pitching staff together if I need to, but having an entire offense collectively s*** the bed is a death sentence.

Don't take this the wrong way, though how did your team make the playoffs with all those injuries and underachieving performances? Your pitching was rock solid though so I'm sure that was your biggest key. And you never had Abreu until the last week of August which makes it even more unbelievable.

deGrom is really good. It's annoying that silvergun acquired him for three old broken guys.

 

All pitching breaks eventually...deGrom already had shoulder issues this season. Not like he's immune. I'd rather spread my pitcher risk across three guys.

 

Opportunity cost was low as I would be cutting guys I didn't really want to keep anyway.

Pitching, pitching, and more pitching.

Also imo I'm still owed some cuddle time after the Donaldson thing.

 

Well he gave you Lucroy, so there's that.

That made a lot of sense for both of us, BTS just can't help his despairing ways.

 

iirc earlier he tried it on me with dropping a Daniel Cabrera comp on McHugh, it's what he does!

Come on, wasn't that a PM and meant in jest?

If we wouldn't mind neglecting his roster this week, that'd be greaaaaat.

Yeah your pitching carried you for the entire season! Just when I glanced at your roster, I couldn't believe how your team had done so well with guys like Butler, Jennings, Headley, Braun, Xander, Trumbo, Choo, Ramos all underachieving or with injuries. If those guys were playing to expectations, just imagine...

I don't want to imagine. It hurts too bad.

Prepare to lose your hopes and dreams.

Making it to the finals and losing is enough to break any man.

 

But seriously I miss his posting, funny guy and a good s***-talker!

I <3 you.

 

It's been a far from ideal year, so I haven't been the best.

 

With that being said, I am down with this league, and happy to pull an Eli Manning this week (actually Strahan and Tuck, let's be honest) and beat this loser Dinger who think he's the 72 Dolphins.

Bro, signup for the basketball league. If you haven't gotten the invite PM me your email and I'll send it tomorrow. If you feel you might be busy atm I would suggest getting a co-manager as well.

How DARE you? I am the most humble consensus favourite of all-time! I barely even bragged about how I led the Power Rankings all season or broke the league record with 203 wins. I will smite you in the name of my stolen son, Giancarlo.
