A Very Darrelly Dynasty League

[Dr. Dinger]

Me too. Would be sooooo good.

 

I have no shares, so naturally I'm all for this.

[Dr. Dinger]

I cashed in Cingrani at the right time in FC, traded him last offseason for Kuma.

Who's willing to pitch on a Voodoo doll for Carrasco? Wouldn't be too hard to pull off, all it would take is breaking into North's house. You know he's got some game worn attire of Carrasco's that has illicit uses, but would have some Carrasco hair on it.

I'd be game.

What is with the Reds wanting everyone to be a god damn reliever. I though Cingrani could offer a little bit of value from a pitching perspective now he is damn near useless. FACK

He'll probably be a top end holds guy with SP eligibility this year (think Wade Davis last year). It sucks compared to the value he could have as a starter, but I wouldn't say he's useless. Over 44.2 innings in the majors, he's held lefties to a .191/.274/.286 line with 54 k's in 44.2 innings (and most of that as a starter, in relief he'll probably average 95 mph instead of topping out there and the numbers will be even better). He still has swing and miss stuff vs righties too (just gives up too many gopher balls).

[TRM]

So by mistake it seems I've ended up with 5 April clozerz, and only 1/2 April Holds guys. If anyone is looking to add savez, let me know. Looking to snag some good ratio holds, or help in the rotation. Willing to talk on anything.

 

Clozerz:

Kimbrel (not likely moving)

Nathan

Gregerson

Peralta

Clippard

 

Holdz:

Motte

Maurer

[NorthOf49]

Chris Hatcher is a better bet to get saves than Joel Peralta.

[Laika]

Is Joe Nathan still penciled in as their closer? That's hilarious.

This is unfortunately the truth, yes.

Arguable, and honestly I wouldn't mind that to be true.

[z3r0s]

looking to wreck some people in a re-draft league I'm in. 7x7 (pretty standard). Anyone got any sleeper picks they want to send my way?

How many teams?

[z3r0s]

12 teams

[BTS]

12 teams

 

I hear that Alex Cobb kid is pretty good.

[Laika]

Really, just look at anyone with an o-rank over ~275 that is owned in the DDL.

 

Punt catcher and draft someone like Jaso in the last round.

Definitely take Harper in the 2nd or 3rd round if possible.

Invest in bats almost exclusively until like, round 8/9. You could still get a near Ace like Carrasco as your first SP.

 

Late pitchers:

Miami Dan Haren

Peavy

Danny Salazar

Jesse Hahn

Hutch

Kyle Hendricks

Shane Greene

Joakim Soria (end of draft)

Ken Giles (end of draft)

[Laika]

If you want value pick "sleepers", look at my entire roster...

 

Votto

Zobrist

Pearce

Davis

Souza

Jaso

Wright

Castillo

Walker

Burnett

Salazar

Hammel

 

HNNNNNGGGGGGGHH the redraft pick value is so strong

[z3r0s]

got many of the names on my short list... wanted to ensure I didn't miss anyone. A few of the crazier values (according to Steamers) are Walker and Pearce. Here's hoping the other players don't have a similar idea (but I doubt it ).

 

Wow, you're right NJH, lots of sleepers with the above mentioned and Votto, Zobrist, Salazar, Jaso all great values.

Most of the value picks are arms. Ryu, Fiers, Lackey, Kazmir, Carrasco, and even Yusmeiro Petit in 90 innings is projected to outdo quite a few starters.

[NorthOf49]

Brandon McCarthy is really good and you can probably get him for cheap. John Lackey too.

[BTS]

All this talk makes me want to do a redraft, but I know I'll get bored by week 3.

[Laika]

Maybe we should reboot the Premier League after all?

I meant to write McCarthy too, oops.

One of you can have the Howies spot.

[BTS]

Anyone else cringe when they see the red update indicator beside a pitcher on their yahoo team page?

[BTS]

I hate you

 

y??

[TRM]

y??

 

He doesn't have to explain himself for this.

[BTS]

I guess in this particular instance it's because my team is in perfect health while his has been decimated.

You definitely just jinxed it.

My only one of the day was good news...

 

Chad Qualls still has a perfect ERA this spring after pitching a scoreless inning Monday against the Braves.

Advice: Qualls has allowed one hit and an unearned run through four innings. The Astros have yet to name a closer, and it's possible Qualls will get the job,
