A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

Hey NJH, can we get a Candelbro update?

 

not while he's offering him in deals. Can we get a Magneuris update?

[Laika]

Hey NJH, can we get a Candelbro update?

 

He's

 

a) really good at baseball

extremely available for an extremely mediocre SP

[BTS]

I thought Kazmir would get claimed. I guess the DDL has spoken and I was overrating him.

Still awful and you'll either cut him within a few weeks or hold onto him to prove a point and wish you'd just cut him

[Dr. Dinger]

Old? Check

Always hurt? Check

Diminished velocity? Check

No rotation spot? Check

 

Would not own again.

actually he just goes into my lineup when SB's are in play for the week. The issue is that, despite being one of the fastest guys in the majors, he's really terrible at stealing bases. I have no doubt I'll drop him. I'm already holding on to Kelly, Mancini and some pitchers. I like Jeimer actually and considered taking your deal but couldn't figure out my drops just yet.

Still holding in BORED. I hope he comes off the DL and has a great two start week against you in the playoffs.

It's still on the table. But I sent out a half dozen offers, so if anyone wants Jeimer for an extremely mediocre SP they should act fast. Just looking for someone slightly above replacement level.

[Laika]

Justin Bour continues to hit in front of Stanton.

[Dr. Dinger]

I think Brandon Belt had a clause inserted in his contract extension that he gets to sit every time the Giants face Kershaw.

[Dr. Dinger]

Dave Cameron ain't very smrt.

 

12:04

striker: Quintana + Jones for Dahl, Rodgers, Hoffman, Amonte, Pedro Gonzalez.

 

12:04

Dave Cameron: I wouldn’t take that if I was the White Sox. That’s an injured maybe average player, an overrated prospect, an okay pitching prospect, and some stuff. They could do better.

 

 

12:22

Erik: So if the Cubs offered Schwarber straight up to the Phillies for Altherr, should the Phillies say no?

12:22

Dave Cameron: If I’m the Phillies, with Hoskins ready to take 1B as soon as Joseph cools off, yeah, I say no.

wowza... das really dumb

[Laika]

Schwarber for Altherr kind of reminds me of Myers for Souza.

 

Bat first 1B/OF and long-time scout darling for an older OF who is a nerd infatuation.

[Laika]

Matt Harvey is f***ing AWFUL. And he hasn't even lost that much velo (still sitting 94, touching 97.5).

 

His peers right now are guys like Weaver, Dickey, Koehler, and Arroyo. Projections are already sky-rocketing into the mid 4's for ERA/FIP.

 

Did anyone trade big for him in our leagues in recent history?

[Fearthedoc]

Wow BTS lucks out back to back weeks. I didn't see there were afternoon games today and left Kershaw on my bench for his gem.

Let's be real here: I'm going to get destroyed anyway.

Yes, Zaunbie dealt McCullers for Harvey + something else about a month ago in BBDL. Basically, right before the implosion.

No wonder Greenwood wants to quit fantasy baseball

[Dr. Dinger]

I am literally in love with Jake Lamb.

[BTS]

Dinger, what does Gsellman have to do to get stapled to your bench?

[Dr. Dinger]

He was actually sitting 95/96 out of the pen today and 90 on his slider, so I'm not totally mad. Also, I'm facing Boxy.

I traded for him too. It's a long term play. It's only May. This is best time to cash in on underperforming guys. Unfortunely my Zimmerman for Edwin offer got turned down cold in fantrax:(

[The Cats Ass]

Who ever has Harvey here interested in selling?

[Laika]

I traded for him too. It's a long term play.

 

As in - in the long term you'll use him as a reason to quit the league out of frustration?

Nah. The guys I bet on normally work out well. Zimmerman was an exception until this year

[Laika]

You mean - the guys you bet on worked out great that one time in that one league that one year where you won

 

you're getting clowned in the All Star league bro

I'm playoff contention in every league but that one. Not to play the excuse card but it was my first ever auction. I actually really enjoyed it but would've done so much different.

[z3r0s]

welp, Sergio Romo is officially a gas can.

p-appointed I used a keeper on him.

You're playing the excuse card. I'm pretty sure this was the first auction for half of the participants in the league.
