lol, Marcell Ozuna optioned. Man him and Yelich have been such let downs.
-
More worried about his injury lingering for rest of the year. Grade 3 strain is ugly
-
Ouch. Six+ weeks for Miggy. Could sink me in Nox's league.
-
Crazy. They must love his SATRel60

Radio guy said sploogeball.

Had $1000 to spare but you were too slow
-
I believe you are wrong. Adding "De" in front of a traditional name in order to make a more stupider name first began as a thing in modern American ghettos.
-
Jose Espada has started his career with 8 K's, no walks, 1 hit in 5 IP across two outings.
-
The O/U on Hoffman K's tonight is set at 7.5. Get your bets in. House takes the over.
-
He's not worth $6M per

He is maybe a top ~50 D-man, or something like that. Overrated because of points. PPA's thanks to Ovie.

Mike Green isn't that great.

This isn't correct though. It's not clear what you mean by "and player X at our slot value" A Get Guerrero Take 1 year off in the big name international market Trade DeJong and Locastro Get ~$2.1M from LAD for the aforementioned prospects B Get Guerrero Take 2 years off in the big name international market It's not like Toronto is producing internal reports that peg DeJong and Locastro as future MLB starters and still making this trade. Obviously the internal reports that management is looking at have the two as relatively weak prospects. It's a scrappy org guy and a potential reliever... -
De Jong is repeating Lansing this year so I don't really care that his peripherals look decent. He's 21 in A ball with an 8.0 K/9. He'd have to be 19 or have a K/9 up over 10 for me to care about him. Locastro I won't believe in until he hits in AA. I doubt Toronto misses either player. There's a slim chance that they will, I suppose. It's still sort of depressing though because this trade cements the fact that the team decided to go over slot and incur a year-off penalty in order to sign ONE 16 year old 1B prospect. The earlier rumours were that Toronto was going to "smash" their limit this year and bring in a ton of players. I had always felt like the play should have been to go bananas and bank on the international free agent rules all changing in 2016 anyway. Maybe when the Dodgers missed out on Moncada and became the obvious 2015 bully everything changed.

I enjoyed your line by line breakdown, and your use of visual emphasis. Nice job.

My biggest strength in our 20 team leagues has always been filling out my roster with quality depth. In this league I've always had an easy time finding productive pitchers but a tough time getting great hitters, for whatever reason. Arrieta, Buuchholz and Hammel were all off the pile, but I had to trade Urias, Scherzer, and Stroman for my core bats.
-
Could be as simple as someone's info on a player being wrong. There haven't been many secrets in the last couple of years but it's not like the reporting field bats 1.000. There will also be pop up guys and Japs and defectors to spend on up until July 2016. It seems dumb to go over by so little for one player, and incur the severe penalties. I know the new CBA in 2016 could potentially change the rules, but still.
-
Nothing about him, sporting that moustache, is refreshing. His face and his arsenal are both filthy, greasy, and disgusting.
-
Earlier rumours had Toronto planning to "blow away" their spending limit. Maybe they'll surprise with a couple of other shiny dudes.
-
Carlos didn't want it bad enough
-
Carrasco is going to need be up near 130 pitches at the end of this. Tough.
-
Carrasco so hot that he can't throw strikes anymore
-
Hmmm, I thought he was better. I was looking at Wins Produced for SGs from that year and he was like ~10th in the league, but I guess that stat would largely be a function of playing time. I understand what you're saying and I agree. Thank you for sort of explaining why Derozan is a complete plug.
-
If the difference between DD being worth or not worth his contract is a bit of alternative coaching, then hoping that the team replaces him or upgrades on his position seems like misdirected frustration. I think we can all agree that by far their worst starter (player?) from last year was T.Ross, and he's already been supplanted.
