BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Gross Offense, but nice Pitching. Yeah, I'd need an OF and Util bat. That's still a much better team than my current one though. My trades have largely hurt me.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I've mostly been spinning my wheels I think. Going by the original draft. C Wilin Rosario 1B Anthony Rizzo 2B Dustin Ackley SS Everth Cabrera 3B Álex Rodríguez CF Josh Hamilton OF Puig (prospect) OF Yelich (prospect) Util Gallo (prospect) SP Clayton Kershaw SP Hisashi Iwakuma SP Jeff Samardzija SP Clay Buchholz SP Ubaldo Jiménez SP Jered Weaver SP Colby Lewis SP Matt Harrison RP Koji Uehara RP Pat Neshek
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 It'd be interesting to see who would have the best team and who would have had the worst if no trades were made.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 It'd be interesting to see who would have the best team and who would have had the worst if no trades were made. I think silvergun would probably suck. Off the top of my head North would probably be very good.

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Seems a lot better than your current team Well I guess I should stop making trades too then.
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 Well I guess I should stop making trades too then. You should have made trades until 2015, but then stopped. I think.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I think silvergun would probably suck. Off the top of my head North would probably be very good. Off the top of my head, I drafted Scherzer, Donaldson and Jose Fernandez in the initial drafts. That would be a decent core.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 You should have made trades until 2015, but then stopped. I think. So what you're saying is that I have to make more trades to right the ship?
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 You should have made trades until 2015, but then stopped. I think. That happened to me. I made mostly good trades until about midway through last year when I got frustrated by my offense and made a bunch of bad choices.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Off the top of my head, I drafted Scherzer, Donaldson and Jose Fernandez in the initial drafts. That would be a decent core. Damn.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 That happened to me. I made mostly good trades until about midway through last year when I got frustrated by my offense and made a bunch of bad choices. You last year, me this year. Who's gonna sabotage their team next year?
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 the (insert clever name)'s original team would be C - Brian McCann 1B - Mitch Moreland 2B - Jon Schoop (prospect) SS - Jose Reyes 3B - Pablo Sandoval CF - Lorezno Cain OF - Justin Upton OF - Gregory Polanco (prospect) Util - Marcell Ozuna (prospect) BN - Derek Norris BN - Dominic Brown SP - James Shields SP - Matt Garza SP - SP - SP - RP - John Axford RP - Jonathan Broxton RP - Alex Meyer (prospect) RP - Tony Cingrani RP - Tyler Thornburg Dead - Josh Johnson, Ricky Romero, Dylan Bundy, Oscar Tavares (literally) I'm glad I made trades.
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I was counting waiver adds, so you'd also have Tanaka, Kang +
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 I was counting waiver adds, so you'd also have Tanaka, Kang + hurray!
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Was looking into the past. And found this gem. Seems BTS knew what was going on...
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Author Posted October 8, 2015 Dead - Josh Johnson, Ricky Romero, Dylan Bundy, Oscar Tavares (literally) ok, I lol'd
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 ok, I lol'd http://assets.diylol.com/hfs/cab/0a8/765/resized/jesus-says-meme-generator-jesus-says-you-goin-to-hell-mofo-c35c44.jpg
BTS Community Moderator Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 Jesus, the GDT reads like a a bunch of hockey fans who started watching baseball last week. Price is apparently a playoff choker.
jays_fever Old-Timey Member Posted October 8, 2015 Posted October 8, 2015 You say that like it hasnt been going on all year. The Jays also need to stop hitting homers, bloop the ball all over the field, the starting pitcher should have always come out right before he gave up his last run, etc. The Rangers arent really an average team and all the people using stats/logic to call them average are stupid
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 1B - Belt 2B - Cano 3B - Wright 2B/OF - Zobrist SS - nobody / replacement level player CF - Ellsbury CF - Span (Add, I think) CF - Revere (Add) OF - Ethier OF - Pompey (minors) C - Carlos Ruiz? SP - Arrieta (FA) SP - Stroman (prospect draft) SP - Iglesias (FA) SP - Hammel SP - Bauer SP - Niese SP - Gallardo SP - Peralta RP - Papelbon RP - Cishek RP - O'Day RP - KRod Unlike you guys, my team would be much worse without trading. Trades brought me Votto, Walker, Davis, Dickerson, Santana, Gordon, Fowler, Iwakuma, Salazar, Hendricks, Jimenez, Rondon, and Anderson.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Can't the mods see deleted posts? If so, KK should be able to go back and look. Meh, he deletes everything for a reason.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Meh, he deletes everything for a reason. I can see posts that I delete myself. I've never come across anyone else's deleted posts. Doesn't seem possible.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 I can see posts that I delete myself. I've never come across anyone else's deleted posts. Doesn't seem possible. Yeah, not likely. *shrugs*
TheHurl Site Manager Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 I can see posts that I delete myself. I've never come across anyone else's deleted posts. Doesn't seem possible. we can see posts that the common poster deletes and any soft deletes that mods do.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 we can see posts that the common poster deletes and any soft deletes that mods do. O.K. cool. I guess I haven't been around enough to notice.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 we can see posts that the common poster deletes and any soft deletes that mods do. So he deleted everything, I'm sure?
Laika Community Moderator Posted October 9, 2015 Author Posted October 9, 2015 Not realizing that Hendriks is arguably your team's best RP is kind of egregious. I don't understand why Hawkins was out of the pen before him.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Not realizing that Hendriks is arguably your team's best RP is kind of egregious. I don't understand why Hawkins was out of the pen before him. Gibby is colour blind, he hadn't realized that white pitchers had given up 0 runs to that point and black pitchers had given up 9.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 Not realizing that Hendriks is arguably your team's best RP is kind of egregious. I don't understand why Hawkins was out of the pen before him. I agree but at the same time, Hawkins looked better than he has in awhile. Got a couple of lazy fly ball for two quick outs and then got babiped two death on two strike grounders. Absolutely no good rotten luck.
