A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Fearthedoc]

My god this is one skimpy waiver draft. Then again I thought the same last year until I yoinked Willson Contreras @ #89.

 

I have 20 guys lumped together on my board. I thought about trading up but couldn't find one name in particular who jumped out.

I don't even have a board, I just click some names onto my watch list and cross-check the Top 100 lists (there's no Willson Contreras available this year).

done!

This waiver draft does seem rather weak. I don't even see a lot of great relievers.

There are some solid holds guys available, but no obvious Jeurys Familia or Sam Dyson this season.

Well I suppose those guys never really seem like those guys until they become those guys. The good picks will still occur this year, we just won't know until mid-season.

[z3r0s]

yeah people were very stingy with their RP's this year. Lots of keepers. Will be interesting to see if that holds going forward.

[Dr. Dinger]

Michael Fulmer was a game-changing pick last year, nice work KK. Oh was another steal.

My board is basically rosterresource.com

 

I just want two solid holds guys, and then some hot garbage with my other 3 picks.

Mine was Duffy @ 48... you just never know!

Yea boss, that was a grand slam.

[z3r0s]

Napoli at 78 turned into good value (in a wasted season). But that was entirely because I had not good options at 1B, not because I knew something

Ibaka to raps!!

That was a great pick too. Tons of value generated from it.

Get different-er avatars, I got really confused thinking GD just picked out of turn.

 

Seconded! GD needs to change. Speedy was first, and is the owner of the Cubs in the LOD. I don't like being confused.

 

I actually thought of that right after I saw the post lol

Yeah I drafted Oh 32nd overall, so second round.

[Dr. Dinger]

Did anybody PM torontofan?

Just because you win it doesn't mean that you get to tell the rest of the league what to do...now go back to jerking off on to your DDL trophy.

 

NJH, I had a great idea, you should put the google docs page on the initial post.

Kind of sad that Dinger has guys on his team that make me feel young and yet I don't ever see him losing the division title...Now it's Speedy with the bad news for his team.

z3r0s' team is looking pretty damn nice and he still hasn't promoted Urias or Giolito. I don't think the division will be a runaway this year.

[Fearthedoc]

I predict:

 

Dinger, Silver, Silvio, Njh as division winners.

 

EDIT: Turkey Bacon is a super close race. North, TCA, and njh could all easily take it. Especially if TCA has someone other than TDA as his starting UTIL.

[P2F]

What does z3r0s' team look like now? He had a super-farm going into last season, so I'm curious to see how things have played out since then.

The lineup is nice: Contreras, Abreu, Dee, K Seag, Story, Eaton, Mazara, Polanco, C Santana. Should be good for years to come. On the pitching side it's Aaron Sanchez, CarMart, Richards, with Urias and Giolito on the farm and a nice collection of holds guys. It's a non-closer pen but should be pretty dominant in holds to make up for it. Pitching depth is maybe a bit short for the time being just because the rotation is so young and innings could be unreliable. I think it's already a very dangerous team. He could also trade Senzel+ for pitching if he's in it near the deadline.

 

It was a patient and well-executed rebuild.

I'd have to agree with that. FTD still has Trout & Kershaw (seriously, f*** you TCA), so that division will be close, but silvio's offence is lethal all-around and on the right side of 30.

I think it's a playoff team now, and is a good workhorse starter away from being a top team. First successful tear-down and rebuild in DDL history.

Blew the farm out to get Carlos Martinez, Jose Abrue, and Eaton all filling spots that were pretty much black holes on my team.
