I'm so happy he was terrible.

 

I'm glad I was able to sell him before he became nearly unrosterable in LOD, though I also traded Stroman for Tyson Ross in the same deal so it kind of balanced out

Also, IRC he held on Sanchez and Tanaka last offseason when a lot of people might have been tempted to dump shares. He deserves credit for that.

 

He traded Tanaka + Barreto to me for Mazara last offseason.

Poor Boxy's waiver draft history is tragic:

 

2014 (4th): Eddie Butler (Tanaka, Abreu taken 1 and 2)

2015 (3rd): Jesus Montero (Tomas, Souza taken 1 and 2 and Kang 5th)

2016 (2nd): Byung-Ho Park (Maeda 1st and Michael Fulmer 4th)

 

Hopefully this year his pick works out spectacularly for him.

The knock on Kang was he was putting up the same numbers as Eric Thames. Now the tables have turned and Thames goes first in the draft because no one is dismissing KBO numbers anymore.

 

Thames went 1st because there literally isnt anyone else.

Boxy's draft haul (top 10 picks only)

 

Waiver:

 

Eddie Butler (2014)

Jesus Montero (2015)

Byung-Ho Park (2016)

Lourdres Gurriel (2017)

 

Rule IV:

 

Austin Meadows (2013)

Dominic Smith (2013)

Billy McKinney (2013)

Carlos Rodon (2014)

Brady Aiken (2014)

Alex Bregman (2015)

Andrew Benintendi (2015)

Anderson Espinoza (2016)

Jason Groome (2016)

 

It's not like these were bad picks at the time. A lot of this was getting unlucky. It goes to show how easy it is for high picks and good prospects to flame out and lose value.

Top of the 2013 and 2014 drafts look pretty ugly now in general. Getting studs like Austin Meadows and Dom Smith out of it is probably the best he could hope for.

I'm seriously considering dealing most of my top prospects in a sexy megadeal so if you've been secretly coveting any speak now, etc.

 

Ugh FML and f*** you, secret seller

Can I be moved out of his division, if I make any said type trades? :P

 

Win the DDL this year and you can change divisions.

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.

Holy hell, that team is positioned for sustained success. Dynasty in the making.

 

Great job on your rebuild, z3r0s.

It's not really a rebuild by z3r0s, because he was never a playoff team previously.

 

It's just more of a slow build, finally coming to fruition.

Boxy is a pretty damn good minor league drafter

 

It's just the everything else that's a problem

take in Boxy might not have more playoff appearances than an 11 year old Jewish kid who's bad at math and baseball

I have 3 BBDL playoff appearances. Also 2 PL titles (where you also play and where my supposed "good minor league drafting" is irrelevant)

 

Anyway, I'm not interesting in continuing with the dick measuring. Only here to tell you to know your role, jabroni.

Ok so with my championship in BBDL call it a tie

 

I don't play in the PL lol. I think the Howies made a playoff appearance but I wouldn't take any credit for that. No Mark Assigned
