A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

Where's TCA? MIA....

 

At 2am... I was in bed.

 

 

 

ps. PMd you.

[BTS]

I'd just like to point out that Brandon Belt is a better hitter than Eric Hosmer, both this year in terms of wRC+, and for his career (by a far more significant margin). Strange how no one talks about Belt.

 

Belt is good and very underrated. It took me 4 months shopping him to get offered an SP4 for him. He's better than that.

Hey Gibbersr, Not sure if you aren't getting my PM's or are just busy (as I know you are this year).

 

Looking to acquire a few picks. Get a hold of me!

[BTS]

I'm considering chopping off my Coredick, if you want try and muscle in feel free to send some framework.

 

This seems unwise. I like it.

[KingKat]

On a per game average, 2015 Dernard Span is outperforming 2014 Span. Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I think he might outperforming 2015 Souza too. Or maybe not. I haven't looked it up.

[Dr. Dinger]

Should I call up Lorenzen or nah? I'm willing to package him with another starter like Greene for an upgraded/older pitcher.

Nah

He definitely is.

[BTS]

Wow, Span has a 144 wRC+. I knew he was off to a nice start, but not that nice.

[Laika]

Span Pompey and Cole for Souza, rape rape trade rape

[BTS]

Am I the only one who doesn't understand the hype around Lorenzen? He pitches for an awful team, has no job security, is going to strike out like 5.5/9, and projections have him with an ERA approaching 5. Why does this non-asset get brought up in this thread multiple times a week?

[Boxcar]

Souza suxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What hype? He's completely under the radar.

Dinger owns him, and we all know he's a master of running his own hype machine.

[BTS]

The DDL thread hype.

 

And you're not under the radar when nobody talks about you because you suck. You just suck.

Because Dinger is trying to pump up his value in hopes someone will overpay and give him something worthwhile for a dime-a-dozen pitching prospect?

[Fearthedoc]

All dinger assets get pumped. There's no reason Allen Craig's name should have had as much buzz as it did this offseason.

[KingKat]

Could Slade Heatchott be a guy?

[Dr. Dinger]

I traded Lorenzen for Haren and O'Day in FC and have received interest in him here as well. He has some value, no one is pitching him as an elite prospect. That said, BP ranked him #63 this offseason, making him comparable to prospects like Manaea, Eduardo Rodriguez, etc. They also quoted some scouts last year who preferred him to Stephenson, and clearly the Reds do too. He throws hard and has limited home runs in the minors, he should be a fine, league average SP. Maybe something akin to Eovaldi.

I see...

[Dr. Dinger]

I see...

 

Not saying I agree with that assessment, just stating the facts. Stephenson looks pretty busted right now anyway, so perhaps its a case of overrating him.

Stating those facts has some kind of purpose, no?

[Dr. Dinger]

The purpose was to educate your ignorant, stat-scouting ass as to why he has trade value. Now you know.

[KingKat]

I'd be shocked.

 

Preston Tucker, however...

 

Well if you hadn't squirreled away Tucker and held him up for ransom, I might have grabbed him instead of Heathcott so this works out pretty well for me.

[The Cats Ass]

Lorenzen could be alright. He's like a Henderson Alvarez. Just with more walks and less strikeouts.

[KingKat]

Prediction: By Oct 1 Tucker has a legit rookie .780+ OPS while bringing up Heathcott's name is met with many lols.

 

Prediction: you end up selling Prescott for pennies on the dollar of flat out drop him.

[Dr. Dinger]

Lorenzen could be alright. He's like a Henderson Alvarez. Just with more walks and less strikeouts.

 

He'll have more Ks than Alvarez, probably in the 6-7 K/9 range. Maybe Porcello!

You present "facts" that paint Lorenzen as being preferred to actual elite prospect Stephenson by his own org...but you weren't trying to do anything there. I'll have you know that I have stat-scouted Lorenzen thoroughly and he grades out at around Eddie Butler.

 

^lmao

 

What kind of jagoff question is that?

 

stfu

[Dr. Dinger]

Lorenzen > Blackburn
