Anyone wanna trade for Mauer and take a risk that he'll be moved back to catcher? Could be a great business opportunity.

 

Sent you a PM.

Well, it makes sense why he was so f***ing terrible in the 2nd half. Excuse me while I go cry alone

Ouch, Justin Turner undergoes microfracture knee surgery.

 

Should be 100% by spring training.

Nice, good thing TRM ignored by legitimate offers for him from a month ago.

 

Why do I own Brad Miller?

Just realized I have Joaquin Benoit. Must have picked him up in September. Yay.

 

Yeah, I think maybe NJH dropped him to stream a crappy ^ just before he got eliminated. Or something.

I dropped him on the 15th amidst minor injury concerns to try and stream an extra Hold from Addison Reed.

 

Benoit ended up getting a hold on the 16th, and then Reed got one on the 18th. So it was a nothing move.

 

BUT I ended up tied in Holds and tied in the matchup, losing the tiebreaker to slivergums. So if I had have waited one day to do the add/drop I would have made the finals.

 

JOAQUÍN!!!!

So I just learned today that J.D. Martinez hit 38 homeruns this year. I only have a very feint notion of who J.D. Martinez even is and he hit 38 homeruns. I'm pretty floored by this news.

He's George Springer with less speed and a bit more contact ability but less plate discipline.

 

lol

I was lol'ing at the "with less speed, more contact ability, and less plate discipline" part

So is Martinez a guy that prospect hounds whiffed on? Or did I just miss the hype because of his rather common surname?

 

He is one of those guys that no matter what got bad reviews for not having everything look right. He's not a great athlete and has an unorthodox swing. But he produced results. Within one year in the minors after being a 20th round pick BA had him as 6th on the prospect list for the Astros. Then a year later he had 150 PA's with Houston. Every report had him as a doubles hitter though.

 

If you were looking for a similar guy in the minors right now (meaning one that is missed because it's just not all there)...look at Jaycob Brugman for the A's. He's not fast, he's not getting the power numbers that his profile shows...but he's worked on balance because he was a front foot hitter (just like JD)

I can sell you Wainwright back, lol

 

Too pricey. I'm basically looking for someone's Kennedy or Chen.

I am willing to package top 5 prospect J.P Crawford for some help with hitting. OF or 3B or 1st....

 

Must be legit bat or won't be dealing
