Longenhagen dropped his summer top-100 http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/summer-top-100-prospects/
-
Who wants to play fantasy baseball with someone who looks people up on twitter and then publicly makes fun of their appearance and the appearance of their spouse? At least part of the appeal of these is that everyone is at least mostly respectable on a personal level. Randy wasn't. I never understood why greenwood chose that hill to die on.
-
Man, Neon Keon is personally buttf***ing you this week Dinger.
-
Anybody know a good way to export league-specific yahoo player ranks?
-
No thx.
-
I think I hate Gerrit Cole.
-
I dropped him in June in BORED. He's still a free agent.
-
5/10 There might have been something there, but the execution was terrible.
-
Pillar right now? Yes. But Simmons was entering his age-26 season and controllable for 5 more years, and was coming off a 3-win age-25 season. An asset like Newcomb, with long odds to ever be a 3-win player, was nowhere close to an adequate return.
-
Jered Weaver has retired.
-
You definitely don't trade 5 years of a mid-prime positional player stud for one.
-
Wow, Andrelton Simmons has a 120 wRC+ and 4.5 fWAR. He's provided LA with 7.6 wins in less than two years, and is under control for three more years. Trading him for Sean Newcomb was never not insane.
-
What was our trade? Kazmir + Broxton for Gsellman + Gio I think? Gsellman and Kazmir are complete zeros, so you'll end the year ahead in this one because Gio has been better than Broxton. I'll almost certainly hold on Broxton though. He's going to go 20-25 in a very disappointing year and I can't quit on those tools.
-
I get it. I'm still rostering Jharel Cotton. But I'm not fighting tooth and nail for a playoff spot.
-
LoD will survive.
-
Why are you still rostering Gsellman?
-
Anyway, I'm done arguing about the value of a fringy reliever. My objection to you is more broad in that I've played 8 dynasty seasons with you across two leagues and not once have you hinted at even trying to win. I think that you're either trolling, or the worst dynasty player on the forum. I don't really care which it is, because either way it's bad for the league.
-
If we took a league poll right now I bet two guys would say Bedrosian and Steckenrider currently hold equal value.
-
I should probably point out that a) Givens is about 5 months older than Steckenrider without about 10 times the track record of success, and nobody has met my asking price. So assuming Steckenrider has 1st round value when he was on the waiver wire a week ago is still highly dubious despite the mental gymnastics.
-
Not even close to relevant to what I posted.
-
Gibbers is the only owner I've ever played with that made me question whether or not they planned to ever try to win. We'll be entering season 6 next year, and he's seemingly never entertained the idea of trying to make the playoffs. It feels a lot more like a long troll than it does an owner who has struggled to put a quality team together. Combined with him being very difficult to reach, and his series of questionable moves with jaysblue, I don't think we'd have a difficult time finding an owner that improved the quality of the DDL.
-
The league will be just fine.
-
A fair bit of it, yeah. Posey and Marte are franchise-altering talents that have helped you dramatically.
-
The absolute worst part of the DDL is jaysblue building his team by repeatedly pillaging Gibbers, and then routinely coming in to defend Gibbers' side of moves that clearly worked out better for him while he sits at the top of the standings and Gibbers toils near last place.
-
So basically you know you won the deal, and are in here defending it to keep the gravy train going.
