A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

Facing Mike Trout would't be all that fun either. And Kershaw might be back by then too.

 

Also, it looks like I may have ended my playoff drought.

 

Congrats, kid.

[TRM]

You lost to the best team actually, the week before those.

 

you're an objectively lame person

[Dr. Dinger]

umad

Kind of. I would have liked to collect on consecutive wins against SG and FTD the next two weeks, rather than the previous two.

Oh well.

[jaysblue]

That was a quiet trade deadline.

 

I find this league is one of the tougher ones to make deals.

I offered you several blockbusters that you sat on for more than a week before declining. Can't say you didn't have any action.

Yup I was contemplating it, though I mentioned that it was a deal I'd probably be more open to in the offseason. You actually only sent me one offer, not several.

[Dr. Dinger]

Yeah you're right actually.

My big deadline acquisition was a Jacoby Ellsbury waiver add with the #20 priority, thanks in part I'm sure to a tactical smokescreen post on this forum upon his DFA from Los Osos Blancos.

 

Fans of the Butt Stallions are understandably disappointed.

[jaysblue]

I tried, couldn't land Happ or Paxton and waffled on buying Estrada, he's been reeeeal s***** lately.

 

Price tag on Happ was extremely high I recall (top 100 player in return). I tried going after guys like Paxton & Ventura as well, though that team was reluctant to move pitching for offense.

I saw that you picked him up and I find it extremely hilarious. I hope he torches your ratios all throughout the playoffs. Let me just dig up the PM where you said he's not even as good as Rajai Davis (which you were absolutely correct on).

I don't really understand why the Pharm team has been frantically buying fringe relievers with what must be a <5% chance at the playoffs. North is having a hard time accepting the fact that he's going to miss the playoffs.

I asked on Happ and the request was the player currently ranked #10 overall. Can't blame speedy for trying, but he was never going to get that kind of return.

[Dr. Dinger]

Also lol @ the Baez deal, has the Pharm fallen far enough that mafk is a keeper? Yikes.

 

I don't know wtf North is doing. The Cutch trade was pretty gross IMO.

[Dr. Dinger]

I actually don't even know what team Pedro Baez is on off the top of my head.

[BTS]

So does GD get fired (again) at the end of the week? Pharm team will need a scapegoat.

Well Jacoby will strictly platoon so there's little chance of him tanking anything. I just hope he contributes a little bit in some of the counting stats, which my team has been mediocre at accumulating all year long.

 

But yeah. I wasn't sure if he was even an upgrade on Smolinski...

Enjoy your 0/5s.

Actually I see someone more interesting already. Bye, Jacoby.

I would have gone with Toles over Schebler. Keon Broxton is better than both tho.

I owned Keon Broxton in the LOD while he went 0/50 to start his career so I f***ING KNOW HE'S BETTER.

 

Schebler is starting and Toles is nominally a 4th OF though

Toles is Benintendi without the hype.

The hype train is pulling out of the station. How exciting. I think I see the rotting corpse of Trayce Thompson.

I hate to reference the LOD in this thread with such frequency but I own Toles there so I lean towards diversification since all of my fantasy decisions have a tendency of turning to garbage this year

I thought about sending you a Broxton for Gio offer last night but I didn't feel the hype was quite ripe for that.

[Spanky99]

Spanky, you can't let SG get more than 10 wins this week. Help a brother out.

 

Holy crap... don't count on it...

[Spanky99]

So jays_fever doesn't set line-ups... lame.

[BTS]

Huh, looks like I'll get 2 start weeks from Scherzer (Atl, Phi); Hamels (Sea, LAA); Hill (Ari, Mia) in round 1. Come and get it boys!

 

Also 2 from McHugh but he scares the f*** out of me lately.

 

If you 14-0 Spanky you might get to face your old pal BTS in round 1!

I owned Schebler for about a week in this league. I think I dropped him to pick up Nick Franklin.

 

I'm using a ton of rosters spots right now for hitters who are sitting on my bench - guys like Cuthbert, Joseph, Morneau, Castro, Franklin. In a perfect world, trimming down to 2-3 would be ideal, though I'm sure if I drop one or two of those guys, one team will reap the benefits.
