It's ok you guys. We tried.

[Spanky99]

Here's a question for you guys, is Altuve worth 2 top 100 spects in a 20 team 7X7 Dynasty, Altuve at the moment is 16th in MLB with a wRC+ 151... Yay or Nay and why? Edited June 15, 2022 by Spanky99

Not all top 100 prospects are the same...

By Top 100 I assume you mean ranked somewhere between 60-100? That would be a definite yes from me. What prospects are we talking about though?

Lol. You mock me when I peel the curtain back, yet here you are lol

[Laika]

Yeah if you are competing and need a 2B and these are backend top 100 types then I probably pull the trigger

[connorp]

Spanky rejected my Lux + offer as trash but if Lux grows into his power a bit, he’s not far behind. He’s competing now

[Spanky99]

Yes I understand that, lets go with range, various spects in the 15 to 40 range and the other spects in the 75 to 120 range rated in various listings? Does that break it down better?

 

I'm not naming the players as there's several guys on the forum that own said ranked players.

[Spanky99]

Lol. You mock me when I peel the curtain back, yet here you are lol

 

Wow... look at this moron. lol... I wasn't going to point at anyone, this has more to do with several other offers, idiot.

Why would anyone want Gavin Lux? I mean if it costs be a waiver claim sure

[Terminator]

I'd still do it unless that 15 to 40 guy is a better fantasy prospect than he is real life prospect. Especially if he's a pitcher.

Just DM me offer I will tell you what to do

My recent post to Laika explains it.

[Terminator]

Yeah he's a good real life player but a garbage fantasy player. Altuve has hit more home runs this year than Lux will all season.

Seems you’re sour on making bad projections. He’s coming around. Just not on the linear line you thought

 

118 wRC+ With all the power untapped

[Spanky99]

Just DM me offer I will tell you what to do

 

I'm just trying to figure out if I have Altuve rated too high or something, cause I don't get it. To be frank and honest.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He can go off a cliff at any time, mate. I’d say take Casas from Jim and run

[Laika]

what does this even mean?

 

unless you are in a 30 team OBP league there is not much there to get excited about. there is almost no power.

 

he looks like a 10/10 player who doesn't even necessarily play every day in LA...

Guys like Bogey took a season to come into their power. Think Altuve was same, wasn’t he?

Well with what you are saying, depending on the specific prospects, it could be either a great trade or a s*** trade. So I don't know!

[connorp]

Except Lux 6’2 200lb. He’s not going to be slap stick hitter forever

[Spanky99]

Why are you literally throwing yourself under the bus, I'm looking for a legit answer? I'm not competing now, meat, lol. Or I wouldn't be selling my best bat, Jesus Christ!

[Laika]

Altuve took like 4 seasons but he was a 30-50 SB guy so he was a fantasy stud before he figured out how to cheat and hit homers

 

Lux is not a good defender. Like, Bogaerts was a 4 WAR shortstop IRL before he also became a fantasy star.

 

I think Lux is fine as an above average MLB player, super utility piece but his fancy stats don't hint at a power breakout

 

109.8 is his max EV in his career. Just 108 mph in 2022.

 

Bogaerts in 2015 (age 23 season) had only 7 homers but a 111.8 max EV. And his max EV on his career is like 113.9. Wayyyyy higher than Lux.

[Spanky99]

Just DM me offer I will tell you what to do

 

I'll do that shortly, because I'm confused at the value difference. I would like more people to chime in, all my offers to contenders have been denied even when I'M thinking the returns are more than fair and their counters had me thinking it was ugly?!?!

 

Seeing as Connor out himself, he offered me Lux and Gelof? I countered with Walker and a late 2nd(worse than I remembered), was shot down immediately. Da fuq?

Max exit velocity isn't everything. Ask Mookie Betts.

Well, if you were able to post coherent sentences we'd all know what you meant, dumbass. The former of my post still holds true, I don't care about your garbage offer and you can piss off, thanks.

[Terminator]

Spanky just give Laika Co-Commissioner powers for a few days and he'll have your roster whipped into shape no problem

 

*meant Co-Owner

No thanks, not looking for snark either, just honest answers.

Lol I'm kidding Spanky! I gave you some helpful advice too. I would definitely do it. I like Altuve.
