  1. Well look here kid, I said "basically worst case ontario". Do you understand what the qualifier 'basically' means? Do you understand why I pretty much put one or two qualifiers in almost every sentence that I type?
  2. Well with them at least you'd know that Butler will retain 1B eligibility + play every day.
  3. But if it is, it's basically worst case ontario for you. O.Co + might even platoon a bit with a superior hitter vs righties. e: looks legit actually. Some bigger guys confirming the three year deal. Butler for pick #107?
  4. Base report doesn't look legit. Seems like some Kevin Gray presser at 9 ********. Also doesn't make a lot of sense for Oakland...
  5. Must be frustrating to be a Mauer owner.
  6. Oh that happened concurrently? I was just looking at the draft thread that had 100 - TTC - Mookie Betts. If you in fact made the selection with your own brain, then we can expunge the entire event from DDL history. No longer a special round. Just mildly interesting.
  7. DDL History Lesson. June 17th-20th, 2013. The greatest minor league draft round by a single owner in DDL history. On June 17th at 1:58 pm, The True Cardinals select Danny Salazar in the 5th round of the June draft, 82nd overall. On June 20th at 4:54 am, The True Cardinals select Mookie Betts in the 5th round of the June draft, 100th overall. The True Cardinals no longer own either player, but that round will forever live in our history.
  8. Zach f***ing Duke gets 3/$15 from Chicago... Could Andrew Miller and David Robertson both get 30 million?
  9. I'd take a 3.50 ERA guy from the FA pile. I doubt anybody values him as an true Ace...
  10. And Stroman's value takes a nice little bump.
  11. According to RR Karns has options and Colome doesn't.
  12. Moore will only be 12 months from TJS at the end of April. Would have to be a perfect recovery and no other injuries in the rotation for Colome to not get a decent look. I think.
  13. With the Hellickson trade, looks like Alex Colome has a rotation spot. Guy has some s*** but he's reaching the majors as a fairly raw talent, not unlike Archer. Any takers?
  14. Chase is a top 5 park for hitting. The Trop is bottom 5. Huge swing! Honestly like moving from Petco to Yankee Stadium. Yeah he gets At&T, Petco, and Dodger Stadium on the road, but he also gets Coors lmao.
  15. Wow Andrew Velazquez too. Could be a future league average (ish) shortstop. Nice little deal for TB. Hellickson is probably less talented than JA Happ, lol.
  16. Hellickson is a POS - probably worse than Happ - and Justin Williams is a guy who has hit .351 in the minors + is supposed to have like, 70 grade raw power (that hasn't shown up in games yet, obviously).
  17. wow, it really sounded like he'd retire. A 6th round pick for one year of Burnett should be a coup, even if he is 38. + he's heading back to Pitt where he had so much success. Also, the Rays just traded for Justin Williams so maybe he doesn't suck. Boxy u mad?
  18. To make it a tiny bit more fair, should be more like 5/$75 for Russ and 3/$39 for Melk
  19. He was #84 on BA's list. Not in MLB.com's top 100.
  20. Minor league stats: [table=width: 500, class: grid, align: left] [tr] [td][/td] [td]AVG[/td] [td]OBP[/td] [td]SLG[/td] [td]OPS[/td] [td]ISO[/td] [td]BB%[/td] [td]K%[/td] [td]HR/600PA[/td] [td]SB/600PA[/td] [td]SB%[/td] [td]BABIP[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Altuve[/td] [td].327[/td] [td].386[/td] [td].481[/td] [td].867[/td] [td].154[/td] [td]8.4%[/td] [td]10.6%[/td] [td]10.96[/td] [td]42.75[/td] [td]72.2%[/td] [td].415[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Travis[/td] [td].323[/td] [td].388[/td] [td].487[/td] [td].876[/td] [td].164[/td] [td]8.7%[/td] [td]11.9%[/td] [td]15.48[/td] [td]21.89[/td] [td]80.4%[/td] [td].347[/td] [/tr] [/table] Travis is ~4 inches taller. Altuve's age vs. level was a notch better. Slashlines and peripherals are eerily similar. Travis seems to have better over-the-fence pop, probably by a grade. Altuve's speed is better by probably ~2 scouting grades. The BABIP difference is probably due to that, but it's possible that Altuve is a better line drive hitter too.
  21. s***, who knows. Maybe the Jays actually have some money to burn this offseason and they've just been playing it coy.
