  1. IIRC those rumours reached their height pre-2013 when the team was looking like complete trash, Profar was the consensus best prospect in baseball, and Bautista had just had his wort season as Jose Bautista. I think it was a pretty valid stance at the time. If the team was projecting at like 81 wins right now, most of the board would be in for moving him for Russell, Bryant, Correa, or Buxton. Profar was on that level.
  2. Spanky's geezers are gonna mash. That pitching situation is dicey though. I'm surprised you never contacted me on Kuma.
  3. Nobody trade with Spanky plz.
  4. It's really unfair to blame ownership for not taking payroll to $150-160 million. In 2013 they were 9th in payroll at ~$118 million. Pittsburgh (66), TB (64), Cincinnati (110), Cleveland (82), St. Louis (110), Atlanta (89), Oakland (68) all made the playoffs on a lower payroll. In 2014 they were 10th at ~$132 million. Oakland (83), KC (92), Baltimore (107), St. Louis (111) and Pittsburgh (78) and Washington (134) all made the playoffs on less, or the same in Washington's case. The point is that Rogers' commitment as far as payroll is concerned is absolutely fine. You don't need a top-5 payroll to be a good team. Many of the above teams are consistently in contention, and never spend in the top-5. The blame lies squarely on ineffective front office management. They've been provided with the resources, and have so far been unable to translate that into any kind of success. If you want to blame ownership for employing ineffective management, that's fair, but the payroll argument is silly.
  5. Who the f*** is Matt Snyder?
  6. Iwakuma to catsass for Betances and Clint Frazier
  7. This is why I recommended him for the LOD. He always sets his lineups, and he seems like a good dude. That's fine for an owner in a 20-team league.
  8. I don't think there are any rules. Nobody has ever missed a cut. We should probably reduce keepers from 20 to 19 or something, but that's still almost 9 hours away.
  9. Has TRM even made a trade in the last year?
  10. BTS

    NHL Thread

    This return seems underwhelming.
  11. Would anyone be interested in moving a decent prospect for Desmond Jennings before the cut?
  12. http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/556/128/3b9.jpg
  13. Might be the last chance on Iwakuma.
  14. Has anyone else made more than 1 in that time?
  15. Yes. I've already put in the official request.
  16. TIL: there's no such thing as a replacement-level pitcher with a significantly higher ceiling.
  17. Lies. You could never hate me
  18. I hate all of you.
  19. So, am I still allowed to keep a guy I didn't include in my top-20, or would people whine?
  20. Dat 0.304 projected wOBA at 1B.
