Dr. Dinger

Hey guys, I spotted a typo in the Google Doc but I can't edit it at work. Under KK's assets is listed one Luis Arias, I believe that should be Urias.

Same :'(

Anybody buying yet? Elite relievers Craig Kimbrel, Andrew Miller, and Wade Davis are available. Looking for at least one Top 40 prospect to get in on the first two, Davis could be had for less.

Nah, I feel like the hype on Vlad is so big right now that I can only jinx it. Whoever has Brett Honeywell though, please trade him to me.

Tits. Stacked farm, guy.

How many Top 10s bro?

Dynasty Guru published a Dynasty Top 125 for the Offseason, and it's actually not terrible. Don't worry, it's not Bret Sayre! We need content to discuss anyway, don't get too judgy. 1 Vladimir Guerrero Jr. 2 Eloy Jimenez 3 Ronald Acuna 4 Victor Robles 5 Brendan Rodgers 6 Gleyber Torres 7 Michael Kopech 8 Francisco Mejia 9 Alex Reyes 10 Fernando Tatis Jr. 11 Bo Bichette 12 Nick Senzel 13 Kyle Tucker 14 Keston Hiura 15 Brent Honeywell 16 Walker Buehler 17 Lewis Brinson 18 Luis Robert 19 Jorge Mateo 20 Willy Adames 21 Austin Meadows 22 Mitch Keller 23 Brendan Mckay 24 Willie Calhoun 25 Franklin Barreto 26 Royce Lewis 27 Estevan Florial 28 Forrest Whitley 29 Sixto Sanchez 30 Hunter Greene 31 AJ Puk 32 Triston McKenzie 33 Kolby Allard 34 Mackenzie Gore 35 Kevin Maitan 36 Leody Taveras 37 Alec Hansen 38 Juan Soto 39 Austin Hays 40 Anthony Alford 41 Taylor Trammell 42 Alex Verdugo 43 Nick Gordon 44 Kyle Wright 45 Luis Urias 46 Jack Flaherty 47 Luiz Gohara 48 Jay Groome 49 Franklin Perez 50 Mike Soroka https://thedynastyguru.com/2017/11/21/2018-dynasty-prospect-top-125-baseball-rankings/

Interesting, they're very close. Archer is slightly younger and with a better injury history, but has more mileage. I probably would have leaned Archer, also, like I did when you traded him to me for a late 1st round pick because of a perceived roster crunch.

Yeah well much to my chagrin, I've got a substantial drop-off after Sale, and I wasn't about to offer him.

To borrow a BTSism, Spanky going hard in the paint!

I mean, I opened with Sean Manaea, so I can't exactly judge.

He was limping in!

Lester was literally dropped during the playoffs by a championship contender, so that pretty much says it all.

I am allergic to starting pitchers above the age of 31.5, and Arrieta has lost 2.5 ticks since his banner year. At this point, you won't be getting ace value for him. He's in the Jon Lester range of unsexy vetrin SP2s.

Arrieta has way more red flags than Degrom, Mets & all.

I love that Lonzo Ball sucks.

I love Eloy a lot but kudos to KK for snagging a legit ace on the right side of 30.

HEY, there's only ONE Ryon and that ain't him.

I will literally cry if silvergun gets Eloy.

My question is are those players forbidden from re-signing with Atlanta?

Meh, AJ Pollock isn't even that good. It just so happens that Appel is a zero.

In honour of Mark Appel FINALLY being DFA, I bring you The Best of Dinger Hating on Appel! --- 05-02-2015, 03:04 PM Not a fan of Appel, so I like the Pollock side of the deal. 05-20-2015, 08:56 PM Appel has no killer instinct; #3 ceiling. 05-20-2015, 09:06 PM Appel suxxxxx 05-23-2015, 08:56 AM I've been hating on Appel for over a year, welcome to the club! 05-29-2015, 10:28 AM Goddamn, Mark Appel is terrible. I'd want to kill myself if I drafted him over Bryant. 07-06-2015 Maybe I'm being reductive, but he just seems like a really hittable guy with at best average command and no devastating outpitch, judging by his underwhelming K rates. He's not even young with remaining projection, so yeah, I just don't see it. I'm not saying he's nothing, I just don't see him ever being an impact guy. 08-19-2015, 08:49 AM Woof Mark Appel, RHP, Astros (Frisco, AAA): 4 2/3 IP, 12 H, 9 R (6 ER), 2 BB, 3 K 09-03-2015, 12:33 PM That one's super annoying because I still can't quite allow myself to believe that Pollock is a fantasy star, meanwhile I've ALWAYS hated Mark Appel. 03-16-2016, 11:08 AM I can't even pile on Appel any more, it's just sad at this point. He might not even be a major league pitcher when all is said and done. 04-01-2016, 10:33 AM I'm starting to think Mark Appel will never play in the majors. 05-11-2016, 03:18 PM Appel shouldn't be owned in a 240 prospect dynasty league.

I've been a commissioner the whole time. ZeR0s is the obvious choice to be lead administrator. He gets along with everyone and he has been doing a lot of the heavy lifting de facto anyway.

That doesn't say they're for sure gonna lose Maitan. I hope they do, though.

TCA is fine, he messaged me last week
