Three different answers! I'm thinking I have to just start the vets. I can live with benching good games from inferior players like Castillo and Revere.
Struggling with lineup decisions tonight.
Revere vs s***** Joe Kelly
Castillo vs s***** Drew Hutchison
Wright vs the peculiar 2015 version of Strasburg
CoreDick in first game off DL vs James Shields in Petco
pick two?
JaysCare could probably make a decent amount of $$ at the games by handing out commemorative "stubs" in exchange for donations of any size.
This solution is a winner from all angles. 1) it removes any cost on the part of the team 2) it makes money for the Blue Jays charity 3) people who want the stubs have an opportunity to get them in a reasonable way
Following the entire DDL playoffs intensely on Gameday and MLB.tv is pretty fun.
FeatherD and Havok are easy to cheer for, but I'm torn on Dinger v North.
A season long first world problem for North, having three 1B only players, rears its head as Moreland homers from his bench.
North has already benched more Homers and Wins this week than his opponent has put on the board.
If that second line was a tweet and I was a beat reporter for BALCO Pharm Team, lots of salty fans would be faving it
Well regarding Eovaldi, teams don't f*** around with elbow inflammation. He might be done for the year, unless New York wants to take him straight from a throwing program to a playoff start.
Votto's BB% is 29.0% in the 2nd half, and his wOBA is .532.

An absolute tank.
And Barry Bonds had multiple full seasons with better marks, lol.
Imagine owning Bonds' entire career in a league like the DDL?
Porcello is the ultimate 20 team league tease. 1210 career innings, 3.87 xFIP, 4.39 ERA. Straddles the keeper line - although his improved K and K/BB rates make him more attractive than he was previously.
Part mismanagement but also part horrible luck. Rendon, Puig, Gomez, Longo, Stras, and to a less important extent, Teheran, have all been shells of what any reasonable person would have expected for 2015.
