Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 26, 2016 Posted April 26, 2016 Adam Eaton is pretty ok True, I love slap-hitting corner outfielders with moderate speed. He's killing it for me in TAC.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 I guess Shelby Miller decided it would be fun to double his walk rate this year.
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 I guess Shelby Miller decided it would be fun to double his walk rate this year. I know he's been worse than expected, but you really shouldn't have drafted Shelby Miller.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 27, 2016 Posted April 27, 2016 I know he's been worse than expected, but you really shouldn't have drafted Shelby Miller. I don't see why not. I drafted him as a mid-rotation starter, which he had been for several years. And it's not like he's old or he was throwing 87. He was 25 and coming off a year where he avged 94 MPH on his FB and had a 3.45 FIP. I drafted him right around guys like Mat Latos, JA Happ, and Josh Tomlin. I think that's fine. He's just been hilariously awful, much worse than even his haters should have expected.

Looking over the draft board now, I'm surprised nobody took him before 216. Valid pick.

Josh Tomlin is easily better than Shelby Miller...just saying. Also really would like a CF. I can move a guy like Cruz, Conforto, etc. for someone equivalent @ CF (minus the positional adjustment, of course) or I can move prospects like Sheffield, Fisher, Padlo, Bauers etc. Could even move Suxxxxxxxton if you want to trade me a lesser ceiling, higher floor current guy to dream on his potential.

BTS Community Moderator Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 Damn, should have started Jon Niese in Coors on a Wednesday
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted April 28, 2016 Posted April 28, 2016 Damn, should have started Jon Niese in Coors on a Wednesday Hopefully you feel better now

Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Looking to move Gordon for a 2nd baseman +, we have an offer in(you know who you are), and will decide this evening.
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Interesting, Gordon for LeMahieu and Jeanmar Gomez
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Thanks KK, that was a good offer.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Trade done, Gordon, for Lemahieu and Gomez
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Trade done, Gordon, for Lemahieu and Gomez Thanks Dinger.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 I figure the dropoff from Dee to DJLM isn't too much, and you get a temporary closer. Should help for a win-now team.

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 We won't tolerate any phds on our team!
BTS Community Moderator Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 I figure the dropoff from Dee to DJLM isn't too much, and you get a temporary closer. Should help for a win-now team. You don't consider yourself a win-now team?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 You don't consider yourself a win-now team? I dont think it hampers me much. Lawrie is hitting well and I'm dominating saves.
The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Cishek suxxxxxxxxxxx Please don't drop him. Atleast wait for him to get busted with PEDs.
