I definitely would take Giancarlo over Polanco and Yelich in our format, in 5x5 it's closer.

Joc is too low for me. I love him in our OBP/CF formats.

I didn't say that, the article did. I think he's good, although I will reserve "elite" for the big 3.

I dunno, I think 13 is pretty good considering he hasn't shown what he can do for a full season yet.

Yeah I can post the whole thing although it gets pretty weird and half assed after the Top 50, for example Blake Swihart above Adam Duvall and Jesse Winker.

A bit too high on Suxton for me, but it's not the worst list I've ever seen from Bret Sayre.

Boxy, your boy Brett Sayre dropped his dynasty OF rankings and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised! 11) Nomar Mazara, Texas Rangers With such a quiet rookie season in Texas, it’s easy to overlook just how impressive that season was for a 21-year-old. In fact, he won’t even turn 22 until the end of April. That makes him almost a full year younger than the “sexier” name that shows up in the next tier. 12) J.D. Martinez, Detroit Tigers 13) Andrew Benintendi, Boston Red Sox 14) A.J. Pollock, Arizona Diamondbacks 15) Kyle Schwarber, Chicago Cubs 16) Yoenis Cespedes, New York Mets 17) Byron Buxton, Minnesota Twins 18) David Dahl, Colorado Rockies That’s Benintendi, of course, though Mazara is more than a full year younger than either Dahl or Buxton. The argument that was incorrectly made for Betts up until this year is actually a good argument to make against Benintendi—he just doesn’t have elite upside, even if he can hit .300 and knock 20 homers. Pollock has been unreliable due to injury, but when he’s played over the last three seasons, he’s been excellent. Even at 29, there’s no reason to think he’ll fall off from being a 20-homer, 30-steal outfielder with batting average help. Health permitting, of course. Whether Schwarber has or will be getting catcher eligibility is certainly part of the conversation around his value, but it also misses the boat a little. The 2014 first-rounder can absolutely rake and should do just that this year as he comes back from his 2016 knee injury. Buxton is likely going to be more of a long burn than his September might have hinted at, but then again, you already knew not to take September stats too seriously. Buxton’s tools, though, should be taken extremely seriously.

The trade sending DeMarcus Cousins and Omri Casspi to the Pelicans in exchange for Buddy Hield, Tyreke Evans, Langston Galloway and some draft picks was finalized on Monday. "It was time for a change and I decided this was the best direction for the organization, said Vlade Divac. "Winning begins with culture and character matters." Divac went on to half-heartedly thank Cousins for his time in Sacramento and tried to justify the trade by hyping up the draft picks, but the line about "culture" and "character matters" is a pretty obvious shot at Boogie. Both Cousins and Anthony Davis will be sacrificing some touches as they learn to play together, but both of them should still be able to fill up the stat sheet. For what it's worth, Divac also said he had a better offer a couple days ago, so there's that. -- I wonder if the Raps had an offer on Cousins and Masai pulled it after landing Ibaka.

Another good pick. He could post a good OBP and bat in front of Trout. Possibly a poor man's Fowler.

I was either going to take Siegrist or Shaw, so I guess I'll take Siegrist.

Great pick.

Grizzly Man got eaten. Sometimes they eat you, depends if they are hungry or just territorial.

GD is at synagogue, maybe his assistant North can pick.

Njh gd bts

Holy s***, Jimmy Nelson has been traded 7 times. Eesh... got Devers for him.

Yeah fair enough, that special exception does hold significant value. I thought maybe he was one of those guys you drafted on name value but secretly aren't too high on.

What about Maitan?

His fantasy tools are all 60s. I'm stoked to have him as an asset.

Yep. What's a 110 wRC+ in Coors, like a .360 wOBA?

I didn't even say they were equal, but boxy does doesn't let facts get in the way. Apparently Cespedes is an MVP.

Ftfy

For a guy who throws 100 he really doesn't walk many guys.

Even so lol @ cutting him, substantial perceived value

Nope.

Severino is a one pitch reliever.
