A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[KingKat]

I'd like to package Nate Karns and an outfielder (Denard Span, Logan Morrison or Austin Jackson) for a single player. Failing that I'd like to open up a roster spot using one of the OFs.

LMAO Matt Kemp is terrible.

dat -.5 WAR

[NorthOf49]

It feels like he hasn't got a hit in a month..... ughh

[BTS]

Still at least decent as a fantasy OF, but my god is he ever bad at baseball. The Padres are a disaster.

[SpeedyGose]

At least Upton and Myers are hitting well? Going to be funny when their playoff push (predictably) fails to even reach 85 wins

Even Wil Myers is being wasted though - being miscast as a CF is eating a huge chunk of his value. They've gone the Mariners route, just more reckless.

What's going to be really funny is when Upton leaves and they're stuck with Kemp's contract and a ravaged farm system.

Choo coming around, Matt Kemp ice cold.

 

The tides are turning.

It's true, it felt like their GM was a casual fan or something. Pretty obvious that it would be a massacre.

 

As a multi-league Upton owner, I cannot wait for this (although he is currently mashing)

It's awful, I would be interested to see what their process was to come up with that horrible defensive OF. I'm guessing it was not very thorough and completely blind to obvious issues.

Most reasonable explanation for San Diego's offseason is a meddling owner.

 

What's hilarious is the praise that Preller was getting in the offseason for all of those moves. The Kemp trade might be the worst trade in baseball history, other than Ruth for cash.

[NorthOf49]

The Kimbrel trade may been been even worse. Just oozed with bad process.

[Dr. Dinger]

The Kimbrel trade may been been even worse. Just oozed with bad process.

 

They're paying $56M for two years of Kimbrel (rolling in Upton's salary) and gave up a top prospect for the privilege. Lol nothing would make me happier than to see Kimbrel blow up, as relievers are wont to do.

 

I hate most of what Jon Hart has done in Atlanta, but that was a fantastic trade -- shades of Vernon Wells.

[Spanky99]

Wow...Goldy?!

[Boxcar]

Choo dinger alert

[BTS]

Boxy, Choo is good again!

[Boxcar]

Boxy, Choo is good again!

 

I'm so happy

[Laika]

wow. Corey Kluber just shoved 18 K's down North's throat. wow.

[BTS]

wow. Corey Kluber just shoved 18 K's down North's throat. wow.

 

And no walks. Poor North.

[TRM]

59 Ks before Wednesday is even complete...

[TRM]

Most in a week every is exactly double that at 118 by Speedy, but even that was in an all-star break double week so this is a remarkable start to the week.

[NorthOf49]

59 Ks before Wednesday is even complete...

that is a lot of strikeouts

Raisel Iglesias remains an enigma. Hopefully he gets a few more starts so I can at least find out if he's 20-team relevant.

Did you see any of his start?

[Laika]

No, unfortunately

[Boxcar]

No, unfortunately

 

So basically you're stat scouting then

[z3r0s]

oh Dee Gordon, your unsustainable BABIP is just great

[TRM]

For the trade I just posted between GP and myself, my yahoo app is being weird and I'm at work so could one of our distinguished commissioners swap Bailey and Odorizzi and then drop Dickey for me?

 

Thanks
