  1. Well, 32-year old Greinke just got 206M a year ago. Donaldson should get more than that.
  2. Tentative keepers for Mike Trout's Team: C - Cameron Rupp 1B - Adrian Gonzalez 2B - Dustin Pedroia 3B - Mike Moustakas SS - Asdrubal Cabrera CF - Mike Trout OF - Mark Trumbo CF - Tyler Naquin 1B - Mike Napoli OF - Seth Smith 2B/SS/CF - Jose Peraza SP - Gerrit Cole SP - Jose Quintana SP - Kenta Maeda SP - Ian Kennedy SP - Ervin Santana SP - Scott Kazmir RP - Dellin Betances RP - Neftali Feliz RP - Jim Johnson RP - Mychal Givens RP - Santiago Casilla Cuts Ender Inciarte Edubray Ramos Seth Lugo Josh Naylor (farm) If you want any of my likely cuts, they're available on the cheap.
  3. Guy is already filthy rich and probably just doesn't want to leave his home.
  4. I'm kind of despaired by the lack of 1B prospects. I'd like to acquire one, and I keep looking for someone I can flip a prospect of a different position for, but it's Cody Bellinger and Josh Bell, then a bunch of meh like Thaiss and Dom Smith.
  5. Hopefully you're right. I need that PRODUKSHUN.
  6. I think I'd cut him if I owned him in a 20-team league. Hard to see the path to full playing time with Holliday and Bird also in the mix at 1B/DH. Pretty disappointed with this for my LoD team, but as you say, at least it's an MLB deal. It's crazy that a guy coming off a 41-hr season got just 3M. How times have changed.
  7. Surprised that nobody is offering more than a 4th for Kendrick. Everyday LF in a hitters park, and has eligibility at 4 positions. You'd think somebody could use that on their bench, especially if their 2B or 3b is questionable.
  8. 99.7% sure njh isn't going to hold you to your cuts.
  9. Napoli apparently close to deal with Texas. Maybe Carter signs soon after that?
  10. Sale to Dinger for Urias and De Leon? Weird change of direction for the good doctor.

    NHL Thread

    Any of you folks interested in joining a 28-team sim-league that has been running for 15 years? We're one manager short, and having a hard time finding a replacement. If you really like hockey, and think you might enjoy a sim league, let me know. Cliffs on the league: - Ratings are calculated based on player stats in the last two years. We do our own, and they are imperfect. - We have salaries, and a cap. All contracts are negotiated with one of four GMs who double as 'player agents'. - We use STHS to sim an 82-game schedule, one day at a time, and there are full playoffs. You set your lines and defensive strategies before games, and send them into the league. After every game, a boxscore is published with the stats of the games played. - 8-round annual prospect draft and unlimited farms. It's unlike any league you've played in before, but the commish is amazing, and it works. 15 years running, and many owners have been there since the start.
  12. He does have a 3.77 xFIP and 4.22 FIP (1.3 fWAR) over 36 starts. And he projects as a league-average starter. I think you're underrating him, especially as a guy making the minimum. He's a 1-2 WAR SP making 500k that you can store in the pen until you need him.
  13. The more I watched him, the more optimistic I was that there might be something there. He's not an Andrus-type slap hitter - there's power there. The big question is whether the approach will develop enough to make him a viable fantasy player.
  14. I'd be pretty surprised if they option Loup. He's only the second lefty in the pen, and I think he's better than guys like Floyd and Bolsinger on a per-batter basis. Maybe not a lock, but I don't think they should option him, and I'd be surprised if they do.
  15. Yeah, I'm hoping it was just a case of a rookie being tentative. I'd like to see 10-15 homers and 25 steals this year.
  16. So we have 5 locks for the pen: Osuna, Grilli, Smith, Loup, Howell. Who takes the last two spots? Apparent candidates: Joe Biagini - has options Ryan tepera - has options Danny barnes - has options Matt Dermody - has options Chad Girodo - has options Glenn Sparkman - has to be retained on 25-man or offered back to KC Brett Oberholtzer - no options Mike Bolsinger - no options Jeff Beliveau - no options Bo Schultz - no options Gavin Floyd - on MiLB deal Lucas Harrell - on MiLB deal T.J. House on MiLB deal Assuming they pitch well, the most likely choices are probably Bolsinger and Sparkman.
  17. I'm promoting Tim Anderson to my MLB team.
  18. If everyone debated so intelligently and had such an open mind, this forum would surely grow.
  19. The only time the anthem really feels right to me is in international competition. It just seems so bizarre to have 50k sing the anthem together before a regular season baseball game.
  20. It's so cringey that it's customary for everyone to stand and sing the national anthem before a sporting event. The end of that tradition can't come soon enough. On a related note, Ottawa does this 'Hero's Ridge' thing every Sens game where they give tickets to someone from the military and introduce them on the jumbotron so everyone can give them a standing ovation. s*** like that has no place at sporting events except in exceptional circumstances IMO. /rant
  21. This saves what, 45 seconds every 2-3 games?
  22. Guys, I think Marcus Stroman might be an idiot.
  23. Top offer on Kendrick is a 4th round MiLB pick. A 3rd will get him.
  24. GD, I'm not trading you Kole Calhoun.
