When was our cutdown date last year? Did we wait until Yahoo opened up?
Posted
2B/SS He only played 7 times in the OF. 0 starts, missed by 3 games.

 

He shouldn't be SS (only played 7 games there in minors), that chart is still for 2014. He's still a rookie so it's just Yahoo Fantasy sports decision. I think he'll open as 2B and OF in Yahoo. Fantrax, CBS and ESPN all have him at OF only.

My ProBoard notifications seem to have been wiped. From what I can tell, this just happened out of the blue for no particular reason. I suspect this may be a league wide thing so I thought I'd give a heads up.

My notification preferences are still correct.

Waino is on the block.

 

Interesting trades considered... (points if you get the reference).

 

Is this like Kramers interesting trades????

f*** Ryan Braun. Would not own again. He could easily be a 140 wRC+ guy if they figure the thumb out though.

They both have elite upside and some scary red flags. I can understand wanting off the Braun ride.

 

It was especially frustrating given that he was the centerpiece of my offense going into the season, and everyone around him s*** the bed. I needed his production, and he was in and out of the lineup all year with oblique strains and that dead thumb.

And I couldn't stand the thought of Waino getting a 2nd TJS at age 33 right as Jose Fernandez comes back and dominates. I sincerely hope they're both great next year, though.

We suck. Swapping old, broken guys that we paid Jose Fernandez and Matt Harvey for.

I'm in the market for a mediocre bat that I can use as a Country Breakfast contingency plan. I don't care what position.

 

Available: Tim Hudson, Clay Buchholz, picks, prospects.

Don't really like it for BTS tbh. I think Braun is a much better asset.

 

But what do I know.

 

I'm with you. I think Braun is the FAR superior asset.

 

*edit* I thought about this a bit more, and retract my 'FAR'... just superior will do

Posted
In terms of actual fantasy earnings, Waino has been the far superior guy the last two seasons. Obviously I prefer Braun, but I do think it's an even trade from a risk/reward perspective.

Might still take Braun, but only because of his home park. No longer a SB guy and probably no longer a .500+ SLG guy.

 

If he plays, I'd rather have him than Waino. I've just seen nothing to convince me that the nerve issue is going away.

He slugged .453 with a gimped thumb, so although I wouldn't put money on it, I think the odds are good he'll at least be back in the .480-.490 range if the thumb is truly healed, as he claims. Apparently he's been swinging a bat pain free since November, not that health reports are forthcoming this time of year.

Yeah, I'll probably hold onto Moss just in case. I don't want to rely on Braun, but I'll buy the upside.
