This league is a constant war against team attrition. I had a good team last year and I have a good team this year, but I would be fairly mediocre right now if I didn't do some things like get lucky with Arrieta and land Melky.

This is why I don't even bid on these veteran arms like Lee, Waino, Greinke, etc.

In season waiver priorities do not = slots for the rule 5 draft (commonly called the waiver draft). Boxy could blow his #1 waiver priority on someone like Nick Markakis this season, and his first round rule 5 pick for February 2015 would still be in the lottery for 1st overall.

LOL Josh Hamilton. Also, wow, Adrian Gonzalez' slashline really went into the pooper.
-
Xander Bogaerts is just crushing dreams this year.

As was stated, waiver slot picks became tradeable as soon as 2015 draft picks did. We just forgot to add them to the spreadsheet. They are there now (scroll down!). We will keep that pattern for future years. Next season's Rule 4 and Rule 5 picks will become legal trade chips immediately following the conclusion of our June Rule 4 draft. Next year's rule 5 picks will not become tradeable right after the February rule 5. I don't like the idea of having picks from two different drafts and years in play at the same time. Seems messy.

Guys, I don't think you all realize how enormously gratifying it is to draft a future Blue Jays Ace, graduate him onto your Dynasty league fantasy roster, and then watch him blossom immediately.

I can only speak for myself, but I just found Odorizzi to be extremely underwhelming during his first few times through the league in terms of both stuff and results. The velocity and the K rate weren't really there, and his AAA rate stats only ranged from pedestrian to good. So if anyone else is like me, they might have kind of written him off as something less than he is, and they haven't really been paying attention to him this year especially after the garbage March/April. I just Fangraphs.com'd him for the first time in months and I have to admit, his K rate knocked my buttplug clean out of my anus.

You don't want to know. Basically, walking in on your grandpa getting pegged by grams would be less of an eyesore.

Remember when Felix Doubront was a hot league topic?
-
Despaigne probably sucks but really, so does Simon. He's my SP9 and on any half-decent team he's probably not any better than an SP7. And Despaigne is at least young and pitching at Petco. Also, if you've ever seen him throw his repertoire is kind of interesting. Sinker/Cutter up to 94, curve, slower curve, harder slider, weird-grip changeup, and an eephus. He's still very much a "prospect", I think. Remember when the Blue Jays gave up on Henderson Alvarez because his stuff wasn't going to translate into strikeouts? Rule 5 picks should have become tradeable as soon as the Rule 4 picks did. So yeah, you can trade them if you want.
-
Yes it is. But no, he doesn't (apparently).
-
He did send me a msg about it actually.
-
PSA: gord does NOT speak for thehurl when it comes to potential trades. Lol.
-
If a rebuilding team wants Corey Hart, he'd be pretty cheap. I can't afford to wait for him to find his timing
-
There are dozens of qualified, smart posters who would line up for a spot in the DDL. Keep that in mind the next time you guys want to air out petty, dirty laundry. There's no place for it. That goes to both of you.
-
I f*** around often, but mostly due to a lack of conviction in what I'm buying or selling. Sometimes I trade decisively and quickly.
-
So what? If they'd played two games would that make a one game sample important? Ten games is virtually meaningless in any context.
-
McGuire that up and comer who was just DFA'd? lolol
-
I like everything you posted up until you referenced a 10 game sample size
