Their game wasn't scheduled to start until 2:20 Connor.

 

Yeah. Idk for some reason I thought even if game time hadn’t passed it still locked it. Can specifically remember that happening but maybe it was 10-15m before or something

Yahoo is refusing to open BORED for me. Anyone else having issues?

 

Now as soon as I said no, I switched leagues and the site went down.

 

Edit: Aaaand it's back.

A pre-2017 discussion on Tulo, Swanson, Bautista.

 

Dansby Swanson

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.

David Robertson

 

for

 

Jose Bautista

Russell Martin

 

I think Swanson alone is worth more than JB & Martin in a deep dynasty.

 

Yeah, I would not be moving stud blue chip prospects like Vlad and Swanson for Bautista and Martin at this point. There just isn't enough left in those tanks.

 

I'm not a big Swanson fan (at least in fantasy), but that's an exceptionally high price to pay regardless.

 

Big trade!

 

Not that bad of a trade but I'm not a Swanson fan really. Bautista is still a boss.

 

I agree that Swanson is mashed potatoes.

 

Swanson is probably better than Tulowitzki.

 

Nice try!

 

I'd say that's accurate. Swanson will beat Tulo in 4/7 categories this year, and that's if Tulo actually stays healthy. Tulo has been a league average hitter for two full seasons and he's now officially old.

 

Dansby --> .259/.322/.395/13/65/57/9

TULO ----->.260/.329/.444/20/62/66/1

 

And Steamer projects 20 less games for Tulo, so if he DOES stay healthy he should crush Swanson in counting stats.

 

I think Tulo objectively still has the significantly higher upside. Would it shock anybody if he hit .280/.350 with 30+ bombs and 100+ RBI?

 

Would it shock anybody to see Swanson hit an empty .250?

 

What's the appeal of Dansby anyway when you can get a fantasy SS plug like Assdribble for nothing?

 

The guy might not even crack 400 SLG.

 

Or he could hit .300 and slug .450. You guys are leaning too heavily on a pre-season projection for a 2nd year player, Steamer doesn't know who Swanson is and neither do we, but we do have a pretty good idea who Tulo is at this point and where he is on the aging curve.

 

Yes.

 

 

 

Yes. An empty .280, maybe.

 

Swanson was pretty mediocre in AA and barely has any sample outside of that.

 

Swanson just hit an empty .260 in AA!!!!

 

People are massively overrating these shortstop prospects right now, in both fantasy and real life. The Francisco Lindor effect.

 

A .744 OPS may seem mediocre, but a 117 wRC+ isn't. I'm not in love with Swanson so I'm not going to the mat for him any more than this, but you guys are irrationally high on Tulo, and as dynasty assets I don't think they're anywhere close; Swanson is much more valuable. In a redraft, I would take Tulo, but this isn't that.

 

No, I think you're just underestimating how close Tulowitzki is to the cliff. Nobody is saying Swanson is Derek Jeter.

 

Yeah I agree they're not close. No way I'd take Swanson anywhere near Tulo.

 

Yes, well, you're a tomfool enslaved by thoughtless projections. In the near future Swanson will ISO .150+ with a 10%+ BB rate and strong avriges.

 

This is the type of absurd youth-humping that leads people to draft Anthony Goses in the 8th round.

 

Tulo is a nearly bankable bet to provide a few more solid fantasy seasons. Swanson might not ever provide one solid fantasy season. Sure there's a chance he is great, but your probabilities are way out of whack.

 

Don't bring boxy into this!

 

Tulo is 32 and didn't finish inside the Top 250 in this format last year. I don't know where you get off talking about probabilities, his final decline is a near certainty.

 

Tulowitzki is essentially a replacement level shortstop in this format now. Here are some worthless boobs who were better last year:

 

Didi Gregorius

Asdrubal Cabrera

Eduardo Nunez

Elvis Andrus

Jedd Gyorko (push)

 

All younger and either waiver wire guys or available for dirt cheap.

 

Dr. Dinger's idea of fantasy analysis is to click the 'Current' column on Yahoo.

 

Use this to your strategic advantage, readers.

 

So Brandon Crawford?

 

Pretty sure Tulo has been outside the top-250 in value for our leagues the last two years. He's not a high end dynasty asset anymore.

 

This is a lost cause NJH.

 

Not a bad fantasy comp, actually, but Swanson I think will bring more SB and R.

 

I'm sorry you invested too much and bought in on him too late, but it is what it is. He's just not that good any more.

 

The Coors adjustment will finally kick in this year and he'll string together some .350 wOBA seasons for Toronto and remain an everyday SS until he's 40.

 

He'll run a sub-100 wRC+ this year and injuries will force him out of baseball by age 35.

 

I agree he's not the best SS in the league anymore, but he's still top 10 at his position.

 

What was, Benintendi + Brandon Crawford + Pearce (so far) two near-replacement seasons for Tulowitzki? Boxy with the big win over Cyborg.

 

Yeah I overpaid on that one. Tulo still better than Crawford, but Benintendi hurts.

 

TBH the difference between Tulo and Crawford at this point probably isn't even worth a utility guy like Pearce. It goes without saying that Benintendi is by far the most valuable piece in the deal.

My favourite part was when "worthless boobs" Jedd Gyorko, Elvis Andrus, Eduardo Nunez, Assdribble, Didi all went on to be fantasy relevant while Tulo and Swanson were hot garbage.

Boxy, time is right for a Miggy auction. Have some balls

 

Yeah, so I can get a 4th round pick for him. I'd rather hold him until he retires just to spite you

I offered any prospect that does not rhyme with Bore and MILB 22

 

Heliot Ramos and pick 22 is legit.

That's the goal.

 

I thought it was a good enough offer to at least get a reply :P

 

I'm obviously serious about getting him and if you see something else please feel free to counter
