Man, I tried for like a month near the deadline last year to buy 34+ year olds from teams like 50 games under 0.500 and... crickets
-
FWIW, I don't think your activity is really problematic: you're very responsive to trade inquires (even though you apparently didn't actually close any deals), and your roster is usually well-managed. I hope you don't leave.
-
Can you bring William and MikeM with you? Make the DDL great again.
-
Not going to need any pitching wins this year
-
Also, if you're actively logging in and not making at least 2-3 adds a week: you're too attached to the mediocre dead weight on your team. Bad teams should basically be maxing out adds, and good teams should be close.
-
I take the DDL VERY seriously
-
There’s definitely a problem. In a healthy league there should be a market for players in the 100-300 range of dynasty assets. I think and hope you’re also right that it will resolve itself though. Probably via new owners when we lose guys who aren’t interested anymore, but haven’t worked up to leaving yet.
-
Might move Corey Seager and give Volpe the SS spot. I'd be looking for a very good starter + pick/prospect capital.
-
No room for him with the Hosmer, Rios, Mancini, and Wisdom around to handle 1B duties.
-
One thing about 20 keepers: it actually forces people to evaluate their rosters instead of holding replacement level crap because of inertia
-
Hopefully the latter. IMO the format is ideal, provided people are active.
-
I think it’s going to create a situation where the half dozen teams who are paying attention will just keep consolidating resources and ruin the competitive balance. Even the waiver wire is dead. There are multiple teams without full rosters, and Kyle Muller shouldn’t be sitting on the FA pile. I don’t actually have any solutions, so I’ll stop complaining now.
-
There's basically no liquidity in the DDL market beyond elite players. I gifted Stroman to Laika last year in a roster crunch after shopping him for a month and getting no offers, it took like 5 months to get an offer on Taylor Ward, I got literally zero offers on Jose Abreu after shopping him all offseason. Even Brooks Raley should have returned a pick upgrade, and would have a few years ago. In the past there would be a lot of moves in the couple months leading up to the season as teams look to adjust their rosters. Now there was basically no movement and half the league's rosters are a mess. Sucks that so many owners are completely checked out.
-
I'm keeping the ace. Probably only one of those arms pan out, and not to the level of Woodruff.
-
Hoping Lugo gets 3+ starts in. Not 100% clear he’ll be in the opening day rotation though.
-
Few things I could do before opening day: - Chris Martin or Brooks Raley for a pick upgrade. They’re both better than anything on the FA pile. - Michael Brantley for a SP or 2B. Can be a crusty old dude, or a red flag if they’ll be back this year. - Cal Raleigh for a SP or 2B.

Wat
-
The 1B with the 110 wRC+ in AAA the last two years as a 25/26 year old? Phillies are going to need more than that from 1B if they want to make the playoffs.
-
The Phillies have no organizational depth at all. Classic Dombrowski. If the Rockies were a real team they’d be trying to move CJ Cron to them, but they aren’t so they won’t.
-
My team is basically unbeatable. I feel sorry for all of you.
-
I think there were 8 of us drafting after the first few rounds.
-
Pretty bush league of Yahoo to not send an e-mail reminder.
-
Spanky, Jim and Connor - get the f*** in the draft room
-
Anyone in for a redraft tomorrow? Still have two spots.
-
You beat me by 5 minutes
