jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Posey Grandal Vogt Lucroy McCann Martin then a bunch of other guys I'd probably rank Lucroy ahead of Vogt based on age and previous production. Also, I'd probably throw a healthy Devin Mesoraco in the Top 5 over vets like McCann and Martin. He's still only 27 and last season posted a 147 wRC+ (obviously needs to be healthy though). Kyle Schwarber is an interesting name as well who I'd likely take over some vets since this is dynasty.
TRM Verified Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Posey's the only top 100 catcher imo Do you agree that Grandal is two?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Do you agree that Grandal is two? Probably yeah. I liked how Yahoo forgot to rank him and he slipped to the last round of nearly every draft. Idk, toss up between him and Lucroy depending on health (but that comes with being a C).
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 22, 2015 Author Posted July 22, 2015 Choo cycle alert. The time to trade Jason Vargas for him would have been yesterday
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I'm experiencing textbook cognitive dissonance right now. I love him, however every fibre of my being is rejecting the idea of a starter younger than 25. It's only a matter of time until I trade him for Hisashi Iwakuma or something. A deal like this could happen. Thinking about trading Iwakuma. He's also not like your other oldies, this guy is Asian, and those guys can keep going for ever.

TRM Verified Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 There's some really spectacular Min/North drama from the early months of the league. Also, don't sleep on the fact that I was a very last minute, ad hoc 20th member.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Wow people really hated my Beltre-Zimmerman swap lol. I thought the reaction was more even. Dinger Nox NJH BTS Min Yeah, you're a prodigy. Everyone also hated your Rizzo trade.
jaysblue Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Some people putting money down as well lol: Gibbers: "I'll put a $100 on the line for your new league that by the end of year 4 with the structure you've currently discussed there will be a clear divide amongst the best/middle & worst teams. And the stipulations be you can't alter the structure or hold managers hands that stink." http://www.forums.mlb.com/discussions/Toronto_Blue_Jays/_/_/ml-bluejays/88457.121 Is there a clear divide amongst the best/middle/worst teams?
TRM Verified Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I just thought it was funny that at one point you were seen as a pillager in DDL (no disrespect; an interesting thought). I was way too abrasive back then lol. Although I stand by what I said. JFAS 2013 Projected Standings (March 25th, eventual playoff teams are bold): 1. KingKat 119.2 2. The Real Min 86.8 3.

TRM Verified Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Did Hurl sneak in? I tried to find the 2013 playoffs but the previous seasons drop-down isn't working for me on Yahoo!. Yes, there was a fairly clear 2013 divide by July of that year, and by the middle of the first offseason it was clear who would be good for 2014-15. Torontofan. The cheesesteak division has put in three playoff teams both years (and is on pace for this year also)
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 "Besides common sense structure I'm not in favour of helping teams out, just to help we're all adults. If a teams seems to flounder and heads south, and the farm is continually crap, and the major league team stinks, then maybe its time to look for a replacement owner. I'll give managers more than enough rope to show me otherwise, but if they're in over their head, I don't throw life preservers or bring them aboard my ship to help." Pretty interesting
