There are just SO many miles on that elbow. He's a 29 year old with the mileage of a 34 year old.
-
Yeah, Kazmir was bruuuuutal down the stretch. But the again, Shark was brutal all year. I think they are both viable SP3s in this format and strong SP4s.
-
Felix is coming off a 3.70 FIP and a late-season shutdown, with 2200 IP already on his arm. FB is down to 91.8 MPH. I actually think he's at least as likely to break as Sale.
-
Debatable IMO. Sale >> Felix at this point Bumgarner >/= Harvey, talent level is equal but Bumgarner has a fantastic record of consistency and health Rodon < Cueto, although maybe not, and as a dynasty asset I prefer CR Kazmir = Samardzija, although Kazmir was MUCH better in 2015 It's nice for you that Cueto and Shark both landed in a great park, though.
-
You guys all voted me the best team the last 3 years and I couldn't seal the deal, so maybe 2nd in the PRs is where I need to be.
-
Sleep on Rodon at your own peril.
-
That's possible, sure, although I don't think it's absolutely necessary. I have some guys who could emerge this year and be mid-rotation options, like Fulmer, Montas, Flaherty and Kaprielian, each of whom is either a Top 100 prospect or on the cusp, depending on which site you prefer. I could end up packing some of them with Contreras if an opportunity opens up.
-
We are certainly seeing the beginning of the end of the juggernaut that was LOB. Miggy moving off 3B forced me to trade one of Pujols/Ortiz, and I moved Braun to shore up my future at SS. My SP depth is the same as last season, which was more than adequate. What I lack in SP depth in the 6-7-8 spots I make up for with an above average bullpen and 400 elite IP at the top of the rotation.
-
You probably just think that because I dominated all the pitching categories last year.
-
Ben Revere is very underrated in this format IMO. Big-time contributor in H, R, SB, adequate in OBP. He really only hurts you in SLG, but not even in a Billy Hamilton kinda way.
-
I'm gonna roll like this: C - Cervelli, maybe Contreras at some point 1B - Miggy 2B - Cano 3B - Wright/Valencia SS - J.P. Crawford soon I hope/Flores in the meantime CF - Ellsbury/Revere OF - Bautista OF - Alex Gordon DH - Pujols BN - Valencia, Revere, Flores SP1 - Sale SP2 - Bumgarner SP3 - Rodon IMO SP4 - Kazmir SP5 - Jaime SP6 - Dickcheese CL1 - Familia CL2 - Street CL3 - Papsmear HL1 - Watson HL2 - O'Day HL3 - Dyson I should be able to mix and match my bullpen nicely to counter whoever I'm facing, ie roll with only 1 or 2 closers vs teams who have punted saves and use more holds guys instead, and vice versa.

lolol

Nailed it
-
Solid pick, should be able to be about a league average hitter while carrying eligibility at basically every position.
-
KingKat is OTC and present
-
Willson Contreras is the dude who stole the L from Welington Castillo.
-
He should be in the database, agreed.
-
I knew in the back of my mind that he probably wasn't owned in DDL, but he wasn't on my waiver draft radar until last night, and then my heart rate spiked a bit.
-
There aren't many prospects that are even eligible to get taken in our Waiver Draft, they really have to be pop-up guys who make AA but emerged too late in the year to get taken in the prospect draft.
-
Not at all, if anything he's the opposite. He's a former infielder who's really just coming into his own as a catcher, defensively, but he showed a marked improvement in his approach this year and won the batting title in his league while posting a sick K/BB.
-
I don't expect him to play at all this year but I have nobody ticketed for my NA slots, so I'll just stash him there and monitor his progress. If he reverts to mediocrity this year he's an easy cut with no big loss.
-
All it really takes is Montero getting hurt or sucking, the Cubs are apparently very very high on Contreras.
-
I think he landed at 50 for MLB and 57 for BP, or vice versa. He'll probably be in AAA all year, but he could be a big trade chip to them which could open up a path to playing time. I figure, as a prospect, he's better than what I could get with that MiLB pick. The only problem will be making room for him on my 20 next year if he doesn't debut, but I figure he'll make that decision for me.
-
Agreed, it seems like a ludicrous overpay on its face. But late last night I realized that Willson Contreras is eligible, so that's who I'm taking. If I had realized it sooner, I probably would have taken him in the 1st round.
-
You're right that I could use some SS depth but I'm not going that direction. I just want to confirm that I'm OTC before I blurt my pick out.
