glad to hear peeps like it. I've passed on the comments to Mrs. z3r0s and she said she was happy to do it. Did it at work which I feel is fitting for this league :P (also especially means no reward required, but thanks for the sentiment Boxy :))

 

If we want any changes made to the image or the Darryl vs Darrel redone, let me know what. She will give us some better rez files as well and I'll incorporate them on our league google sheet.

 

Cheers!

Darrell vs. Darryl has no right answer

 

In the show they are Darryl but I believe in KGM's post he spelled it Darrell.

I wonder what the best Meso offer you ever rejected from me was...

 

Here is one of our Meso discussions. with your offers. I was sitting on a Fernandez for Machado offer with Gibbers I think so was stalling for a response.

 

"Devin Mesoraco has resumed squatting" Good news! He can squat! What do you want for him? I have some decent prospect capital. One MLB ready guy I have been dangling is Sean Manaea.

 

Mesoraco + Strickland for Neil Walker + Wily Peralta

Meso + Strick + Miley for Iglesias + Billy McKinney + pick 57?

Me: Trea Turner instead of McKinney and I don't care about 57

Can't deal Turner here. He's my golden goose.

Chris Davis + Raisel Iglesias + Sean Manaea + Willy Adames + Michael Kopech for Jose Fernandez + Devin Mesoraco + Hunter Strickland

 

Me: Sorry to be a pain. I can't go back to multiple average pieces. If I'm trading Fernandez it's to get a a top SS (Machado). If not I'll stick with the plan. I can just drop all my shortstops, and OF's and pick them back up in the waiver draft

 

So Turner being involved doesn't move the needle at all?

That was the week before my exams and the weekend of Brampton Cup. I said I'd get back to you in two weeks. You said "or you know it's you snooze, you lose"

It's like you were determined to not trade with me. Calling that package a bunch of average pieces seems comical now. Even if Jose is still alive and smiling you win that trade.

The original deal of Manaea for Meso would have been a big enough win for me. I don't think he's a pitcher that a lot of guys (probably you too) believed in though. I still don't know what to make of him. Davis meant that I had to make another deal (which I hate doing). Kopech wasn't a guy I had taking a big step forward. Iglesias was the piece I wanted and now he's going to be part of a closer committee. What's obvious here is that I have zero ability to evaluate talent. I'm intrigued by what the deal would have looked like with you including Turner.

Here you go boyos. Got busy over the holidays, but here is the updated logo with the other spelling of Darrell with the 'league' added at the end.

 

If anything else needs to be changed, let me know asap. Otherwise I'm going to add it to the league site.

 

I've got her to do a few different file types and I have the original EPS if anyone wants a copy of them (in case we die in a freak gasoline fight accident or something)

She did a GREAT job.

 

Any chance we could get her to a LOD and/or BBDL logo as well?

 

Edit: No hurry or anything, but just if she found herself with some spare time over the next few months.

Someone should do a farm ranking. Throw a bone at us bottom-feeders.
Greenwood used to do that in the BBDL. Is he in this league?

He's been dying to get in for years, but no spots have opened up.

I can't have many years left in me. But of course I've left my my team to certain people in my will. I'll have to check and see if AG made my will list.

With Cotton, do the A's have a potential #2 or is he back-end?

 

Eno Sarris

I'm saying two, other people say I'm crazy.

Re: Cotton

Unbelievable change-up, but IIRC, that wasn't even his most effective pitch this year. I agree with #2 (but what do I know?)

 

Eno Sarris

The changeup sets up the cutter in a way, I think. Three good pitches, no real deficit that I can see.

And the change should be elite.

Thoughts on Manaea? I think he could be a #3, on a championship fb rotation. Thanks

 

Eno Sarris

Yeah his slider is not as good as Cotton's cutter, so that's why I see his ceiling as lower. He's been trying to improve the velo on that slider for years and only gotten a tick or so.

 

 

 

All aboard the Jharel Cotton hype train!

It's OK guys. I get it.

You need to protect your little pond. Don't want to let any big fish in.

 

Didn't you just finish like 50 games under 0.500 in BORED? I'm not sure you'd be very high on the list of candidates TBH.

I just wanted to show everyone how to finish near the bottom of the league, and not quit.

Are you as stoked for him as I am?
