Last chance to get a triple-digit fireballer who draws Verlander comps from scouts! Offer to beat is a 2018 2nd.

*Current Verlander (who blows) and also plays in Coors

Pretty sure the comps were drawn because Pint is a young, solid, 6'4 righty who throws 100 with a potential wipeout curve. He has ace upside. I expected him to miss a lot more bats in the low minors though.

Three assets left to move before the draft:

 

pick 40 - looking for 2018 2nd or 1st round waiver

pick 53 - looking for 2018 3rd

pick 54 - looking for 2018 3rd

Pint gets more ground balls than Verlander. That should help him out a little bit when dealing with Coors.

I promoted Zimmer and cut Aiken and Alex Jackson
Why did you cut Alex Jackson now that he's finally interesting?
Posted
Is everyone making cuts early just because? I haven't seen a deadline posted anywhere yet or our draft scheduled for a date.

 

The draft starts in like 3 days.

He is less interesting than ever. Gross peripherals and converting back to catcher. I refuse to own catching prospects, they are a waste of time and space, especially when he probably wont stick there.

Cut down deadline will be Wednesday.

Draft will officially begin Thursday 9 am.

 

People can start the draft unofficially as soon as they want though, provided they've made their cuts.

What are we gonna do about TRM?

 

I guess he's out. Time to find a replacement, I think.

We could always hire a squire to draft for him, so his picks don't go to waste. He only has picks near the end of the draft, and one open spot, so he might be alright anyway. Give him a chance to show up?

 

I remember him disappearing one other time, and he had a legit reason. Maybe this has something to do with the last time.

I don't really think disappearing for half a season should be acceptable unless he's dying or something.

This is true. And didn't Hurl meet up for a beer with him not too long ago?

 

Who are the candidates for replacement?

I have no idea what njh has in mind, but P2F, Orgfiller, J4L19, Pendleton, SirBJay, L54, and Cyborg would all be great, and I'm probably forgetting people. njh should have no problems finding a suitable replacement.

We've already sent out the min signal a couple times this season and it hasn't worked. Last time he went AFK I think it was just for the entire offseason. I don't think he's really ever ignored his team before.

That is a good list.

I'm not impressed with what I've seen this year from Ariel Jurado and Kevin Newman. Both will get the boot at the deadline unless someone still has faith and wants to make an offer. I'm mostly happy with everyone else. Kevin Padlo is stagnating and kind of a nobody but I still can't quit him yet. Arcia sucks but since my team is going nowhere fast I can afford to put him on my MLB roster for a trial run through the rest of the season which I have.
