A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Dr. Dinger]

Dinger's really poorly supported arguments that are based on nothing more than homerism and his fee-fees have been getting to me. Like seriously, in what world can you strongly believe in Seager having multiple .900 OPS seasons? I don't even believe that for Correa.

 

Hanley has 4 .900 OPS seasons on his resume, is he a Hall of Famer? Tulo has 5. I said there's a strong chance Seager can have multiple, ie 2 or more. I also said that's a peak and not an average. Not sure why that is so inconceivable to you. If you want to get really technical, Corey has already had a .900 OPS season.

[Dr. Dinger]

To be clear, I think Corey is about a 130 wRC+ bat through the prime of his career, with some spikes 140-145 range and a dud or two around 105-110. He'll probably only be slightly above average this year, but it also wouldn't surprise me if he's just really good right off the bat.

1. Hanley was probably on his way to the HOF earlier in his career

2. Tulo would be on his way to the HOF had he stayed healthy. Should I bother pointing out the other obvious thing here?

3. I never said it was inconceivable that Seager could have multiple .900 OPS seasons but there is nothing that could possibly lead you to believe this is even semi likely. It's a very unlikely outcome. You're free to believe it but you used it as a reason why you think Corey is better than Kyle and that's based on nothing but illogical conjecture.

I'll take Adonis Garcia.

 

I also feel he'll do better than both Seagers next year.

1.000 OPS floor at least.

It's not conjecture at all. Corey just had a major league sample that illustrates a much higher ceiling than anything Kyle has ever done. No one is claiming it's sustainable, but even with significant regression baked in, there's an elite ceiling here and it's now demonstrable.

He's been on the forum for like half an hour. Not sure why he hasn't picked.

 

He made his picks a minute after this post, not sure if TCA was notified though.

TCA has made his pick.

Against lefties ya.

 

Overall I give him a .900 OPS floor considering he also has to face right handers.

30 games is definitely enough to display that kind of upside. Nice pick.

We probably shouldn't even bother with the season. Just hand TCA the trophy.

[Dr. Dinger]

He hasn't even demonstrated playoff upside, he's all projection at this point.

I feel this is the right thing to do.

Yeah, I feel pretty silly for my joke about him being in the lottery now.

 

.340/.578 ceiling. What a get.

Like the littlest Seager?

[SpeedyGose]

Getting some SP depth here...Chad Bettis

[tafkasg]

I wanted to pick him based on his name tbh

[Dr. Dinger]

Ah nuts. Good pick.

Actually, Kyle is the littler Seager.

Nice get imo, if I didn't need Yovani's na slot I'd have taken him

[SpeedyGose]

I messaged GD to let him know he's up

Thanks, nice to see you back mister gun

[GD]

Caleb Cotham. Boxy up next?

[Spanky99]

Caleb Cotham. Boxy up next?

 

Yes.

[Boxcar]

I'm gonna take a guy with a demonstrated .824 OPS floor in CF. Tommy Pham.

I don't think you understand how floor works, or humour.

[Dr. Dinger]

Good pick, tho.

[Boxcar]

I didn't want to say ceiling since it is a bit too low for my tastes, so I'm just projecting him to maintain what he's already done at minimum
