A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Laika]

So many studly 3Bs, oy. I'd take Bryant for my 5 year plan.

 

+ guys like A-Rod, Miggy, and Davis are still hanging on this year.

 

There is also a slew of viable young guys like Lawrie, Kang, Duffy, Moose, Franco.

 

I'd probably take Machado just because he might get SS eligibility.

How uncouth is it to "arrange" your lineup in a way that may or may not lead to a loss that may or may not alter playoff matchups which may or may not prove advantageous.

GD and Greenwood would both love your DDL spot.

I don't really see what your angle would be. Are you thinking of tanking for 6th so that you can play the most poorly named team in the league, THB? That would be pretty dicey with Havok close enough to bump you to 7th, giving you a very bad R1 matchup.

 

It's looking like it will be you and I, old friend.

 

1. Dinger - 183 wins

2. Silvergun - 181.5 wins

3. Jaysblue - 167 wins

4. me - 164.5 wins

5. min - 161 wins

6. featherD - 160 wins

7. Havok - 156.5 wins

8. North - 145.5 wins

I think I matchup better with Sil over you, yes. Dropping to seventh would be quite disastrous though.

I thought about doing this too, but really, you have to beat 3 good teams to win anyway.

[Dr. Dinger]

Not really, Slayers is probably going to move into first this week.

I dunno if you're fishing for compliments here, but matching up with you is far from a walk in the park also.

[Dr. Dinger]

I don't want to match up with you, Slayers, NJH, jaysblue, or even one of those lowly former champions. There's no easy path to the championship as far as I can see, any of the playoff teams could win.

I think my team could very easily win it all, and just as easily lose in the first round 10-4.

 

One thing my team has going for it is the vetrin presents. Proven playoff winners, good culture. One of only two franchises with playoff wins in both series thus far.

 

Also, I've only ever lost in the playoffs to FTD.... f***ing ftd.

One thing my team has going for it is by far the best regular season record in league history. One thing my team has going against it is never having won a playoff matchup.

[TRM]

Off the top of my head, playoff series wins...

 

FTD - 5

North - 3

Min - 3

BTS - 1

NJH- 1

 

I forget the last... King Kat?

Yes.

[TRM]

Yes.

 

Cool. I like that the worst team in the league this year has something they can hold over Dinger and silvergun.

[Dr. Dinger]

Meh, I'd bet $500 that either Slayers or LOB wins the championship this year.

[TRM]

Meh, I'd bet $500 that either Slayers or LOB wins the championship this year.

 

I'd take that action.

[The Cats Ass]

Meh, I'd bet $500 that either Slayers or LOB wins the championship this year.

 

I don't want any of you guys to win. I'm rooting for the Burrito Boyz.

[Dr. Dinger]

I'd take that action.

 

Bet me Donaldson if you're so sure.

[TRM]

Am I the only one with Yahoo Fantasy Baseball blocked at work, but not Yahoo Fantasy Football.

 

It's bizarre..

[KingKat]

I alway just use http://sports.yahoo.com/fantasy/. That one always seems free and clear but I have seen other related URLs not work. Yeah, it's weird. Deadpool probably knows all about how that stuff gets programmed.

I have more playoff series wins than Dinger!

[Dr. Dinger]

I have more playoff series wins than Dinger!

 

And now you're rebuilding.

Shows just how fluky the playoffs are. All you can really do is get there, and make sure your roster is set up well. The rest is up to Jesus Montero

Yeah, if FTD's garbage team can win, anyone can.

[BTS]

And now you're rebuilding.

 

I will soon rise like a phoenix from the ashes. And by soon I mean 2-3 years from now.

[Dr. Dinger]

I will soon rise like a phoenix from the ashes. And by soon I mean 2-3 years from now.

 

By then I'll be rebuilding.

[TRM]

Always retool, never rebuild.

 

The Min way.

[The Cats Ass]

I have more playoff series wins than Dinger!

 

Boxy has the same amount as Dinger!

[Laika]

I don't think Dinger will ever rebuild. He'll just ride SaleBum for the next decade and continue to trade for older bats to keep his offense afloat.

[BTS]

Always retool, never rebuild.

 

The Min way.

 

I think you're drifting closer and closer to a rebuild season. No picks or prospects, and your entire team except Hosmer, Grandal, Pollock, and Harvey will be 30+ next year.
