A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Cyborg]

Why protect Sabathia? His ERA is about 5 over his last 400 innings, plus he's super old and fat. Like fatter than ever. If I squint at his numbers, his xFIP is decent, but his ERA and FIP aren't going to catch up while he's playing in Yankee Stadium.

Because BTS' team obviously suxxxx.

[Dr. Dinger]

Peralta has a breakout profile (young + velo + moderate success in past). I think I took him in the startup draft. He might be good again if Lucroy is healthy next year.

 

Jonathan Lucroy framing runs, 2012-2015:

 

+26

+32

+17

+2 (hamstring strain, then pinkeye, then broken toe, then concussion)

 

Career 3.95 ERA/3.98 xFIP, 52.6% GB, 95.1 MPH. He doesn't really walk a ton of guys either, so I think there's something there. He's homer prone but that goes with the territory in Milwaukee. He'd probably be a stud if he got traded to Pittsburgh. He lost some velo this year, so that's a bit concerning, but I think it's within a fairly normal year-to-year variance. All in all, I'm very surprised no rebuilding team bothered to throw a waiver claim on him... probably weren't paying much attention.

All the more reason not to hold onto an obese 36 year old in steep decline.

[Laika]

Pretty happy to leave this waiver period with Jaso and Sabathia. Both will very likely be on my protected list.

 

I think you need less players like Jaso. You seem to get weirdly attached/attracted to platoony dudes.

 

It's not good for you.

 

Scott Van Slyke Syndrome?

[Dr. Dinger]

I would cut Jaso for being white and having dreadlocks. Unacceptable.

At least we don't have to hear about Ethier any more.

I think there are enough signs of life to warrant gambling on him as a 7th starter. And everyone seems kind of excited about his new knee brace. My current in house options are/were Fister, Buehrle, and Locke. If he can pitch to Steamer's projection, he'll be a useful SP7.

I like it. It says he's ready to party.

[GD]

a team with Trout, Harper, Rizzo, Freeman, Stanton, Arrieta, Carrasco, Greinke, and Hamels.

 

I'm sorry how exactly did this happen

[Boxcar]

Wow, Wily Peralta made it through waivers? I'm a bit surprised. I put a claim on him but I prioritized Holland.

 

Wily Peralta really isn't much better than guys you stream for wins on Sunday. Is he actually going to make it through your cut down?

I don't own Wily Peralta, so he definitely isn't making my cuts.

[Dr. Dinger]

Man, Votto is in phenomenal shape these days. Was he always so jacked?

He just wears tighter pants now.

[Dr. Dinger]

Braun sitting out again today... and will need offseason surgery on his... back? That's a new one. Looks like I'll have to fight for this championship without my 25/25 stud.

[TRM]

Boxy. Hear me when I say this. f***. Greg. Bird.

[Boxcar]

Boxy. Hear me when I say this. f***. Greg. Bird.

 

Stop! This is making me like him even more

[GD]

Boxy. Hear me when I say this. f***. Greg. Bird.

 

I've said this about 30 times now

[Boxcar]

I wish Greg Bird wasn't such a goddamn stud for just these three games.

[Dr. Dinger]

BTS, I'm going to go ahead and rename Francellis Montas to Frankie Montas in the Google Doc, I nearly just made a super illegal add.

Sure. That would have been horrible if nobody caught it.

[Dr. Dinger]

I'm sure someone (probably North) would have noticed, probably several people. The shame would have been tremendous.

[Dr. Dinger]

Boxy, Mikie Mahtook is rocking a 159 wRC+ after today's home run... the next Pollock?

Too small a sample to warrant keeping him, especially after he sucked in AAA.

[Dr. Dinger]

It's pretty much the exact same line he put up in AAA last year though. Intriguing power-speed combo.
