A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Dr. Dinger]

Why didn't he call up Sano months ago? The kid is a beast.

 

NJH, please win.

yeah, I probably would have called him up somewhere around that 3HR's in 3 days at the end of August.

Jhonny has been slumping pretty hard lately and Matt Duffy is quite obviously NOT legit, so I would have done it awhile ago to take full advantage of Sano's first and last year of SS eligibility. He looks deadly locked in right now.

[Dr. Dinger]

Silvergun is rolling with only 6 SPs, and one of them is Jered Weaver.

 

Except 4 of them are hands-down aces, and he has probably the two best closers in baseball. It will be interested to see if his quality trumps NJH's quantity (and quality).

[Abomination]

Matt Duffy is quite obviously NOT legit

 

What makes you think that?

[Abomination]

Projections don't quite think Duffy is a league average hitter and he doesn't have real power or speed. I think he and Panik are decent real-life players, but not good fantasy options.

 

I wouldn't peg him as "quite obviously not legit" based solely on rest of season projections. I assume Dinger has something else he's found to suggest it.

[Dr. Dinger]

I'm just being snotty, although really though, he's meh.

[Dr. Dinger]

The Butt Stallions vs. London Slayers

Things to watch:

 

Corey Kluber - whether or not he gets a start later this week could be huge for silvergun.

Edwin Encarnacion - aggravated his finger on the weekend. could he miss a few games?

Miguel Sano - super rookie just called up by silvergun.

Joey Votto - 2 game suspension hanging over his head, pending appeal. When will he serve it?

Votto + Chris Davis - behemoths since the ASB for me

Dickerson vs Scherzer - Dickerson got healthy just in time for the mid-season blockbuster centrepieces to go head to head this week.

 

Los Osos Blancos vs. Triple Hawpe Brewed

 

Things to watch:

 

Stars vs Stars - Arenado, Brantley, Posey, Cruz, Freeman, and Greinke vs. Cano, Cabrera, Bautista, Braun, Ortiz, Bumgarner, and Sale.

Ellsbury and Pujols - these two slumping veterans may need to pick it up if Dinger is going to make the finals

Carlos Rodon - the true X factor. Can sink or cement a team's ratios.

Jaime Garcia - the Ace up Dinger's sleeve this season is coming off of his only terrible outing all year.

Starlin Castro / Eduardo Escobar - with Tulo down for the count, jaysblue will be rolling out these two shitbags.

Zack Greinke - with only one Ace on his staff, and a couple of flimsy options rounding it out, jaysblue has A LOT riding on Greinke's weekend start against the Pirates.

Silvio in New York - will it affect the matchup at all?

[Dr. Dinger]

I really lucked out with Greinke having a one-start week and Tulo being out. Nelly Cruz is also a bit banged up, but hit a tater in his first game back. I'm hoping to take 3 offensive categories and the bulk of the pitching categories, with SV being money in the bank. Rodon may get skipped this week.

[Dr. Dinger]

And as for Ellsbury... ugh, I probably will bench him for Valencia and only start him if I need SB/R come Friday. Even then I may use Hamilton instead.

[Dr. Dinger]

f***... I kinda wanna call up Swihart, who's absolutely crushing it lately (.492/.571 over the last 30 days, .333/.390/.454 since ASB). Can't really afford to FUBAR my 20 man roster for next year, though, which is already problematic.

^ Transparent effort to boost Swihart's offseason trade value by working his recent stat line into a post

[Dr. Dinger]

I doubt it. I'll probably call him up day 1 next year and roll with him for better or worse. He doesn't have a ton of apparent trade value at the moment and it would be nice to have at least one young hitter to keep going forward.

He has a .382 BABIP, s***** peripherals, and a 78 wRC+ projection.

 

There will be better 2016 catchers in the waiver draft. Bro.

[Dr. Dinger]

Meh, I don't care too much about projections. He's hit well at every level after initial adjustment periods. I can grab a waiver C to be his caddy but I expect him to be keeper-worthy going forward.

The way NJH subtlely mocks me is endearing, what can I say.

I love Brad Boxberger!!
