Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Jesus f***ing Christ, Hunter Green is SITTING at 102 MPH in the Futures Game... and Basabe just turned one around for a bomb. Elite velo but not much movement.

Elite velo but not much movement. How much movement can you possibly expect from a ball travelling that fast?
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Goddamn it, I was like Connor's dick's length away from skunking org.
Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Goddamn it, I was like Connor's dick's length away from skunking org. I have 14 players that are either inactive or injured, I can't believe you managed to blow the 14-0 lead.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 How much movement can you possibly expect from a ball travelling that fast? Some guys throw their 2 seams almost as hard as their 4s, but yeah you would think with that insane velo there has to be some aerodynamic tradeoff just to achieve it.
King Old-Timey Member Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 How much movement can you possibly expect from a ball travelling that fast? Ask Jordan Hicks.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 I have 14 players that are either inactive or injured, I can't believe you managed to blow the 14-0 lead. It's funny, I moved out Grichuk for Davis in the hopes of getting a steal. Didn't get the steal, and had I kept in Grichuk, would have kept OBP. On top of that, you got a steal to tie it. How not to play fantasy baseball, kids. I'm dumn
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 And lmfao @ Dinger losing 14-0 to Spanky. That's gotta be rock bottom. He even played Alex Cobb to help you out.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 Look everyone, Boxbike has a toy for once! God Help us all.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Man it would suck if you were searching for the next big fantasy catcher and then you invest heavily in him, only to see him moved off catcher and traded to San Diego. Dynasty is a cruel game.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Man it would suck if you were searching for the next big fantasy catcher and then you invest heavily in him, only to see him moved off catcher and traded to San Diego. Dynasty is a cruel game. I'll be starting up the Ronaldo Hernandez hype train shortly. You should grab some shares and hope on the ride.

Dynasty is a cruel game. It's sad, but at least he's going to catch and get a chance to actually play. Cleveland seemed to have no interest in giving him a real shot. Full-time C in SD is better than part-time 3B/OF in CLE. In related news, Michael Kopech f***ing blows and will maybe be a Mitch Williams type closer.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 In related news, Michael Kopech f***ing blows and will maybe be a Mitch Williams type closer. He had a seriously gross rough patch where his command flew the coop, but in his last two starts he's 20:2 K:BB across 12 IP, 2 ER. Maybe if I'm lucky he'll be Dellin Betances.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 I'd be curious to see what kind OF I can get for any combo of: First round MiLB Carter Stewart Ian Anderson Matt Manning Just looking for an upgrade at UTIL even if its an older player

Orgfiller Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 You could get Yonder Alonso Trade for Steve Pearce, you know you want to.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Ian Anderson and 1st rounder for Brandon Belt. Belt will need to be added to my roster since Im not dropping anyone.

He's returned to his old consistent-boring-statproducting self.
Fearthedoc Verified Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Now traded Jake Lamb,Ian Anderson and a 1st for Miguel Cabrera. Just a solid deal for me.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Ian Anderson and 1st rounder for Brandon Belt. Belt will need to be added to my roster since Im not dropping anyone. Confirmed; Belt transferred to Featherdick's team. I'm calling up Dillon Tate to clear an MiLB roster spot for Anderson.
z3r0s Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Dinger collecting 1st rounders. Processed
Laika Community Moderator Posted July 20, 2018 Author Posted July 20, 2018 Hate that for Dinger. Feels like a clearance price on Belt.
BTS Community Moderator Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 I think Dinger will only really regret it if Belt gets traded. He's a very good hitter, but his park is awful and he doesn't get quite as many PA's as you'd like, so he's not that sexy a fantasy option.

BTS Community Moderator Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 But I think we can all agree he's better than Wil Myers, right? I'd still rather have Myers.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 I like Belt but it’s not like he’s a superstar. He’s 30 and having a career year. Good OBP guy who will max out around 25 HR. I’ve been shopping him for awhile with minimal interest. I fully intend to bottom out next year and I think Anderson will be a more valuable asset for me by 2020 when I shift back towards contending.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 Hate that for Dinger. Feels like a clearance price on Belt. Top 40 prospect and a 1st is clearance price? You must really love Belt.

He's projected to go 21-72-70-3 and like 275/375/475 in a 135 wRC+, 4-win season. If he were a Yankee he'd be a fantasy stud.

Yeah but I already got the best parts of that line. It would be a dream if he got traded to the Yankees, for sure.
