  1. Yeah, I strongly considered one of those OFs, but given his proximity to the majors, I didn't think Manaea would make it to my next pick.
  2. Abomination laughs Manaeacally. J4L19 is on the clock! 1. Havok- Yoan Moncada (SS - BOS) 2. Greenwood- Julio Urias (SP - LAD) 3. L54 - Brendan Rodgers (SS - COL) 4. Frenchsoup - Andrew Benintendi (OF - BOS) 5. Dinger - Nomar Mazara (OF - TEX) 6. JG34 - Lucas Giolito (SP - WAS) 7. Spittin - Jose Berrios (SP - MIN) 8. Spittin - AJ Reed (1B - HOU) 9. TRM - JP Crawford (SS - PHI) 10. Cyborg - Tyler Glasnow (SP - PIT) 11. TCA - Alex Reyes (SP - STL) 12. JaysFever- Rafael Devers (BOS - 3B) 13. Burlington- Blake Snell (SP - DET) 14. Abom- Sean Manaea (SP - OAK) 15. J4L19- 16. Connor- 17. Kingfiller- 18. Frenchsoup 19. Chappy- 20. BTS-
  3. Yeah, I figured you had him in the top 5. I considered trading up for him, but decided in the initial draft that the cost wouldn't be worth the benefit for me over some of the other good choices. Plus, he isn't injured, so I had to knock a few points off for that.
  4. Saw this one coming a mile away.
  5. Clocks don't start until tomorrow anyway. You don't need to feel that you have any obligation to go faster.
  6. If the last few years has taught me anything about drafts, it's to never try to guess what people are going to do. I don't know how anyone could realistically expect him to still be there beyond about 5 or 6 though.
  7. No, but I thought his programming was adaptive.
  8. You can't have actually thought he would make it that far?
  9. I didn't expect it either, but his offensive profile as a shortstop in Coors is pretty damn sweet.
  10. Once a draft starts, please don't name drop. It probably doesn't matter this early on, but it most definitely can later.
  11. And yet you guys interact with him likely knowing exactly what his response will be, just so you can get upset over it?
  12. Both are nice, but the benefit of the spreadsheet is that it's easy to give multiple people access to update it. Then if you're busy and can't update the website periodically, it doesn't matter. You can do so as you're able.
  13. We should probably have a Google spreadsheet for these drafts too, so multiple people can update it. Then Spittin can update the website as he has time.
  14. If people want to let him drop to me at 7, I'd have no issue with it.
  15. Just think if we still had Reyes
  16. Navarro signed with the CWS, and Flowers with the Braves. Wilin Rosario might not be a horrible option, and should come cheap.
  17. Gio Gonzalez comes to mind, although his k rate was higher and general numbers a little better when he first broke in.
  18. Hopefully they don't overdo it and pull a League.
  19. I don't have any skin in the game, but my suspicion is that it would potentially unfairly vault the lower mid-range teams over the fringe playoff ones. Why not auction off a few of the higher end, older players (you could have an outside panel determine the strongest return), and let whoever takes over the team keep the younger ones. Say, auction off Edwin, Cargo, Hamels, and Chapman or something.
  20. With the stuff Sanchez and Osuna have, I don't think it makes much sense to stretch them out in AAA regardless. If you want to manage their innings at the big league level, then one starts for half the year and the other relieves, then they swap or something. Assuming you make the playoffs, you can move them both back into the pen for October.
  21. He did allow Swisher to make some starts out there the previous two years. Swisher wasn't as bad as Colabello in the OF (probably because of experience), but he wasn't exactly great either.
  22. I wonder if the Dodgers are still trying to move Ethier or Crawford? They might have to eat some salary, but we'd be looking at 2 years during our window rather than a long FA contract.
  23. Yeah, I'm not saying I agree with it either. Since the rumor was out there though, that could explain a possible reason.
  24. Maybe that's where a Dickey trade would come in, to free up the cash for a signing (or bring back an outfielder itself).
