BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Wow, Adam Jones and Rizzo both in the Top 10. Rizzo and Freeman both seem high for a 5 X 5.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Rizzo and Freeman both seem high for a 5 X 5. I just really don't see Rizzo being better than he was last year, and I think there's a lot of potential for him to be significantly worse. I like him a lot in a dynasty format, and I'd love to own his career, but I wouldn't bank on him as a Top 10 player in a redraft league.
Chappy Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 5 x 5 is for neanderthals.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 5 x 5 is for neanderthals. I wish yahoo would let you customize o-rank and in-season rank based on either 5x5 or 7x7 with SLG, OBP, hold, and K/BB.

Yahoo just doesn't get it. They have so many people utilizing their fantasy site, but I could see them losing ground over the next couple years if they don't start getting proactive.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I've just never heard anyone use top 200 in this type of format. In the LOD it would hold more weight. pfft. I picked up a top 100 prospect (Keith Law) with the last pick of the LOD draft. And it was my only real input all draft.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Springer CF eligibility is the only surprise I got.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 North shoot me an offer with Carter involved since he has OF eligibility.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Havok, your PM's are full.
havok24 Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Havok, your PM's are full. Cleared.

Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Best hitter: Carlos Correa, SS, Astros Correa went No. 1 overall in the 2012 First-Year Player Draft -- one pick ahead of Buxton -- first and foremost for his power potential. However, he has stood out more as a hitter than a slugger thus far in his pro career, batting .320 as the second-youngest regular (age-18) in the low Class A Midwest League in '13, and .325 as the youngest (age-19) in the Class A Advanced California League last year. He focuses on making consistent hard contact rather than worrying about home runs, using a short stroke and the entire field while displaying mature command of the strike zone. Also in the running: Buxton; Jesse Winker, OF, Reds; Corey Seager, SS, Dodgers Fapfapfap
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 What dates do you guys like for the cutdown and rule 5 drafts? Cutdown by Feb 15th at midnight, start the rule 5 on the 22nd? Not that it matters much. You can always cut before the deadline and the draft is offline so the start date is not a big deal. I rebooted the league as a "keeper" league so people can just select the keepers that they still own from the end of year rosters last year, and the commissioners will add the rest of your 20.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Somebody trade for Buchholz, mmmkkkay?

I rebooted the league as a "keeper" league so people can just select the keepers that they still own from the end of year rosters last year, and the commissioners will add the rest of your 20. Is it possible to activate trades so that we deal with roster players who were moved in the off-season?
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 Is it possible to activate trades so that we deal with roster players who were moved in the off-season? We will deal with roster input. Just select any keepers that you happen to still own before the cutdown date, if you please.
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 Apparently I'm also rostering LaTroy Hawkins. Anyone want him?
Laika Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 These guys are cuts and are available for pick upgrades. Save yourself a waiver pick on one of them and send me a pick upgrade instead... Shae Simmons Jim Henderson K. Graveman A. Simon C. Ruiz A. Colome J. Kelly E. Cabrera C. Quentin T. La Stella M. Moustakas
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 It feels like good teams are cutting better players than last year. I guess it makes sense, more separation between good teams and bad, and there are bad teams that will be protecting players not in the top-400 in keeper value.

Yeah I feel like a lot of my cuts are pretty good, as far as cuts go.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I could see Joe Kelly being the next Masterson.

jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I have better crap than their crap^^ Brandon Morrow Carl Crawford Garin Cecchini Dillon Gee
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 some of these guys will do just fine to make my team a solid middle of the pack team. This is why I stocked up on crappy late 1st round waiver picks
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I could see Joe Kelly being the next Masterson. Which Masterson?
BTS Community Moderator Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I have better crap than their crap^^ Brandon Morrow Carl Crawford Garin Cecchini Dillon Gee That actually is some pretty good crap.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 I have better crap than their crap^^ Brandon Morrow Carl Crawford Garin Cecchini Dillon Gee Do you mind trading me some of your crap to my BBDL team?
Laika Community Moderator Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 How about same day add/drops this year?
