FU. I hope Carrasco blows out his rotator cuff.

You got him in BBDL?

He's now got a better GB% than Keuchel. That's nuts.

Impossible, I have virtually nothing invested in him. He's pure profit until his shoulder breaks again.

Hi-Me; he's cruising again today. That changeup gets a ridiculous number of GBs. http://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=8137&position=P

1.80/2.80/2.96, 65% GB, 4.8 K/BB This pitcher + Beau Burrows for Brian Johnson. Roster crunches are the worst, eh Silvergun?

I was all over this. Only two weeks until my boy is back! Can't wait.

I remember playing fantasy when Jose Reyes was a hotshot rookie and scooping Joe Mauer before he was a household name.

Plus he's handsome.

I have to say, I actually really like Danny Valencia. He's a fantastic bench player who can cover all the corners in a pinch and has some pop. I'm riding him at 3B currently in FC until Beltre gets back and he's mashed a couple HRs for me already.

Don't go acting like you were old enough to follow baseball in 2010.

Father's side... hence the Jewish surname but not actually Jewish.

Are you really that clueless to how good Goldy is this year? Jesus. Watch more baseball.

Hellllllll no. Gattis suxxxxxx.

He's half Jewish (so not actually Jewish). He just reminds me of Eli Roth in Inglourius Basterds. http://assets.gearlive.com/filmcrunch/blogimages/eli_roth_basterds.jpg

The Bear Jew is on pace for 47/135/132/25 and is slashing .363/.481/.679. This could be the greatest fantasy season since Barry Bonds.

heyooooooooooooooooooooo

LOL @ me for actually starting Odrisamer Despaigne

Straight up, I posted that with good intentions. I thought it would be a decent scouting report that would shut me up and exonerate Boxy. I didn't read it before I posted it. It's not even like it's THAT bad, it's an ok fantasy profile... maybe like Omar Infante or something. Still, the glove could hold him back from getting regular playing time.

Sorry, I'm just reading it now. Below-average clock!

I predict you'll soon be in 1st in BBDL.

It's Gausman, IIRC.

Personally, I'd rather have Chen than Duquette.

Unless you believe in Ubaldo, Chen is their best pitcher. If they're serious about trying to make the playoffs, I think this move is idiotic.
