Laika Community Moderator Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 It's come a long way IMO. When we first started this league fantrax looked like a website from the early 2000's, to alot of peoples despair. I think a lot of people like having their leagues in one easily accessible location too. It's like an Apple vs. Windows debate. Some people like utility and functionality, and others just like design and ease of use.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 But why would you ever want to stay in BORED over the LoD... It's just a scuzzy DDL clone. At least LoD is different and neat and challenging. You don't want Dinger's team. Trust me.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 16, 2016 Posted June 16, 2016 Well now it looks like an easy call but at the time there were questions about Cueto's health and Suarez was off to a great start. lol
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Thanks a lot Frenchsoup. Thanks. A. Lot.
Frenchsoup Verified Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Thanks a lot Frenchsoup. Thanks. A. Lot. I didn't even look at who Spittin was playing. To bad I didn't wait a day to sell, o well.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Thanks a lot Frenchsoup. Thanks. A. Lot. Are you seriously complaining while up 12-0? I'm starting to think you just like complaining.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 The one silver lining in this season is that the Trout-Harper debate seems to have been settled. Trout is king.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Anybody want to trade me a franchise bat for my 1st round pick? Cause that would be great.
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Anybody want to trade me a franchise bat for my 1st round pick? Cause that would be great. I, too, would be interested in such a transaction.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 I, too, would be interested in such a transaction. But can you sweeten the deal with Sonny Gray & Shelby Miller? Because I can!
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 But can you sweeten the deal with Sonny Gray & Shelby Miller? Because I can! I kind of want to own Sonny Gray. Boxy says he's terrible, so a 2nd round pick should suffice?
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 His velo is intact, he's just battling through some control issues, hence the elevated BB and HR rates. I think he'll be just fine. He still has a career 3.20/3.55/3.59 over 557 IP, why Boxy thinks that qualifies as suck is beyond me; especially since he should be keenly aware of just how sucky suck actually is. I don't normally make a habit of selling low on consistent fantasy contributors on the right side of 30.
Laika Community Moderator Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 It's funny that Gray and Stroman are both in the shitter at the same time because I always thought of them as talent comps. Maybe Sonny Gray is intentionally trying to be worse, like Stroman. Part of some master plan...
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 He actually hit 97 in his last start and averaged about 94.
TRM Verified Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Anybody want to trade me a franchise bat for my 1st round pick? Cause that would be great. We would do this for a better 1st round pick.

Maybe Sonny Gray is intentionally trying to be worse, like Stroman. Part of some master plan... They are very comparable in many respects.
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 We would do this for a better 1st round pick. I don't even know what mine is, like 6th? I think.
TRM Verified Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 2nd overall pick available for a SP. Inquire within.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Are you seriously complaining while up 12-0? I'm starting to think you just like complaining. I have a busy weekend. I don't want to have to worry about dropping a category.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 I kind of want to own Sonny Gray. Boxy says he's terrible, so a 2nd round pick should suffice? He's not terrible, just funny when guys like Dinger ignore the fact that he sucks at 5/7 categories just because ermergerd he haz a shinee ee ar ay
Dr. Dinger Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 He's not terrible, just funny when guys like Dinger ignore the fact that he sucks at 5/7 categories just because ermergerd he haz a shinee ee ar ay He doesn't sux at any category, he's above average in Winz, Ks, OBPA, slightly above average in K/BB, and usually rly good in ERAz. I mean, obviously not this year.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 He doesn't sux at any category, he's above average in Winz, Ks, OBPA, slightly above average in K/BB, and usually rly good in ERAz. I mean, obviously not this year. when you say "above average" are you including all the s***** starters that stay FAs until someone needs a desperation stream?
Frenchsoup Verified Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Fellas I'm getting destroyed inside from how Gibbons is using Devon Travis.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Pre-season, I had Sonny Gray slotted as the 57th best starter with 184 names in the pot. He went 90th, before Cueto and Hamels. According to the numbers Steamer spit out, he was barely average in W, K, ERA and below average in OBPA and K/BB. He was taken when there were still good pitchers available and he's about average or slightly below imo. That he sucks way more than I thought he would just adds to the hilarity.
King Old-Timey Member Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 Our team has been decimated with injuries. Ross, Wood, Vinny V, McGee, Guyer, Bautista all on the DL right now and Choo/Carrasco have missed significant time. Lynn too but he was drafted knowing he would be injured. Still grasping onto 1st place though.

Still grasping onto 1st place though. Complaining about injuries while 9th in the power rankings and 1st in the actual rankings? Sounds like you've been more than compensated for it. Connor, stop hacking King's account.

King Old-Timey Member Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 Go f*** yourself. How's Mikey Clev doing, BTS?
BTS Community Moderator Posted June 18, 2016 Posted June 18, 2016 How's Mikey Clev doing, BTS? Biding his time. I'm expecting a big second half. As for his hair game, still top notch.
