A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Fearthedoc]

I'm just being facetious but I am concerned about my Boxy like start. I knew my offense would be mediocre, but my arms are killing me.

 

Maybe by July I actually will hit the panic button.

[Laika]

Wow, I didn't realize how s***** your offense actually was. It's Trout and then a bunch of scabs. Pence is needed.

You won your first matchup by a lot? Is Yahoo toying with us or something?

I got crushed by njh. Now I'm getting crushed by z3r0s.

Oh cool. I'm not getting crushed by anyone.

[NorthOf49]

Oh nice, I can drop all these scrubby Rockies RPs now.

 

Kluber, Ottavino...a guy can do a lot worse than collecting North's castoffs!

 

e: Reaally wish I'da lifted Carrasco too, there was a window

Adam Ottavino could put together a string of elite closer seasons. He's crazy good. And you picked him high enough in the waiver draft that you deserve his production (didn't just get lucky).

[Orgfiller]

Just added Pillar. No regrets.

 

Are grittiness and #thewilltowin categories?

[Dr. Dinger]

Ben Revere is currently rocking a -7 wRC+. I didn't know that it was possible to have a - wRC+.

Russell Martin is -25.

 

Being under 0 is the same as being over 200.

 

Not sure why someone decided with these + and - stats that 100 should be league average. Why not zero?

 

It would seem to make more sense and be more intuitive if a person with a -20 wRC+ was 20% below league average.

[Dr. Dinger]

So the Astros 3-4-5 hitters are all currently striking out at 40+%. Thry could set some records this year.

 

Also, Chris Davis and Joey Gallo are the same person.

100 looks better.

[TRM]

The same country still uses the imperial system, so clearly they can't be trusted with logical scales and measuring devices.

Speedy and I are swapping Plouffe for Locke. Can a commish push this through (want to set my lineups going forward).

How do you think i feel Devon Travis and Lorenzo Cain have been my best Hitters

[KingKat]

I hadn't actually seen any footage of K. Vargas until today. Guy is beastly.

He looks exactly like a young Ortiz in the box, notice that?

I suppose the fact that they both came up with the Twins reinforces that.

The batting stance etc, is so similar, never thought about the same organization, lol.

[Spanky99]

Watching the Brewers/Cards game, I really miss Lind.

I like Smoak i think he is going to have himself a very quiet yet productive year. I like the way his ABs have looked so far. However his lack of facial hair is very boring.

Yeah your Matt Olson pick sucked. So boxy.

Tyler Duffey 13.2 IP in AA with 18K, 2BB, 0.00 ERA (1.03 FIP) and a shout out from the one and only Ben Badler:

 

Ben Badler ‏@BenBadler Apr 9

Tyler Duffey had 10 strikeouts, 1 walk in 6 2/3 scoreless innings in Double-A tonight. Pop-up Twins prospect from last year to watch.

 

This is the DDL, who are you?

[Laika]

Please get out of our thread?

I can no longer pretend that Matt Olson is garbage. Matt and Greg should make a mediocre platoon for you at UTIL one day.

[NorthOf49]

Orlando Arcia and Albert Almora are the second and fifth youngest players in the Southern League (former pharmhand Tyrone Taylor is eighth). Wendell Rijo is the youngest player in the California League.

 

NJH has the two youngest players in the Texas League and his pick for breakout prospect of the year is third (Nomar Mazara). Interesting stuff.

I can almost taste the envy
