What are you even attempting to do here, numpty?
I've been on other, obviously better players than these two at any given time. The fact that I called Spencer Turnbull to be a useful fantasy piece before this season began after he coasted along in the minors in relative obscurity is a win in itself and exactly what I hoped for. Regarding James, I was one of the first people around here to jump on board the train and fully expect him to contribute positively when actually healthy next season. It's my fault he was unhealthy most of the season, I guess. Damn that absurd K rate and high 90s heat. Josh James is/was a stat scout's dream and was disregarded by all of the scouts. Sounds like Boxy 101 to me, so I ask you - are you a goddamn fool, man?
Jonathan Davis, Anthony Alford, SRF, Richard Urena, Justin Shafer, Thomas Pannone, Yennsy Diaz, Brock Stewart, Patrick Murphy, and Beau Taylor? Doubtful we see Hector Perez yet.
2019 34th-rd pick Luis Quinones continues to impress in Vancouver. Yeah, he's 22, but he's been fantastic so far. He might be worth keeping an eye on to see if he can keep this going as he levels up.

Brock Stewart and Justin Shafer have been optioned, Clay Buchholz has been activated off the IL, Ken Giles has been activated off the PL, and Nick Kingham has been DFA'd.
Here are Chavez Young's numbers at A+ over the past 8 weeks (188 PA):
Much more like the player we all thought he was. Hopefully he can add some power to his game, though.
If the playoffs started today, I'd be in. Next week's matchup with FTD is looking absolutely massive.
Edit: This is exciting! To have completely sold off that aging team I inherited midway through 2017 before it crumbled entirely and already be competing for a playoff spot two years later is probably my favourite personal fantasy accomplishment to date. Thanks for letting me into this league, lads. I love it.
