  1. that might be Joe Inglett?
  2. that draft is looking pretty bad at the top the best player in the first round might end up being Jordan Walker (21st). Most of the top 7 picks have trended down. Mostly for performance, Meyer due to injury.
  3. one year deal maybe at this point
  4. Jan. 30: Wacha has been seeking a two-year deal worth roughly $30MM, writes USA Today’s Bob Nightengale. That would trail only Justin Verlander and Nathan Eovaldi for the largest two-year deal given to a starting pitcher this winter, and clearly Verlander isn’t a relevant point of comparison in this instance. Generally speaking, second- and third-tier starters who’ve signed two-year pacts in free agency have landed in the $16-25MM range over the past several years. good luck Wacha!
  5. Yeahhhh but those aren't going to know if he's hurt and possibly done
  6. Oh Duffy didn't pitch in 2022. That makes sense then I guess.
  7. Wow the Rangers worked some magic to get these guys all on minor league deals. Insane. The Rangers announced this evening that left-hander Danny Duffy and outfielders Clint Frazier* and Travis Jankowski have signed minor league deals with non-roster invitations to big league camp. Texas also confirmed previously-reported minor league deals for Reyes Moronta and Ian Kennedy.
  8. Stang - only piece of advice is take your time with trades. Reach out to a board member who is not in BORED if you want to see if a trade is fair or foul.
  9. No way. They would be burning Biggio for such a tiny upgrade.
  10. It's nice to hear good things about Dasan Brown. At a minimum, you are probably looking at a Jonathan Davis clone who makes the major leagues at 22 or 23 instead of 26 and stays with the org through his three option years, as the 5th or 6th OF on the depth chart. The K rate is concerning and likely a kiss of death. Defense is funny. Lots of players get scouted as exceptional defenders and then come up as average ones, and vice versa.
  11. It's not even a horrible top 10 Stud at the top Barger an underappreciated stud Pearson and Macko at 9 and 10 looks nice...
  12. personally I can't wait for some fat awkward reliever to pull a Chad Qualls and somersault over the fence onto the field
  13. The main point is fan experience bringing the bullpens up is cool bringing the seats to the edge of the wall so every HR lands in someone's lap is cool having a slightly non-uniform OF wall adds some excitement too tbh it seems like the baseball considerations of these changes were not really high on the list of importance
  14. PPE Prenup Premature Ejaculation Emotional Damage

    You are old which means you were probably a bit smarter 3 weeks ago than you are today
  16. Yeah he held him for over a year after the conviction Such a liberal, always a champion of reform
  17. People somewhat frequently add KBO and JPN players with prior MLB experience, on pure speculation that they might come back There are 19 year old prospects with 40% k rates in the low minors that owners will literally hold through the draft because Ben Badler said 14 months ago that they had 60 raw power and 50 speed Every pitcher starting games is owned, up to their retirement or move overseas. Erick Fedde for example was probably started 20+ times last year. I love the LOD.
  18. LoD is the pinnacle of all fantasy baseball. It's more grueling and demanding than most of these LARP paid leagues like the NFBC. f***ing 12 team 5x5 noobs. I wish there was good fantasy content for deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep leagues considering advanced stats like wOBA
  19. BORED is like the low minor leagues when it comes to our intense message board fantasy slate. You would be fine if you follow baseball in enough depth to just have a general feel for top prospects and who the good players are around the league. Which you certainly do?
  20. Pretty tricky to directly interfere with contractual negotiations when you are simply investigating something
  21. Tatis? Tim Anderson is maybe not even top 15

    it is just so weird to me that Karlsson kind of sucked for four straight seasons and then decided to be elite again at age 32
  23. actually it remains hard to believe that the Hall of Fame people even gave her a f***ing choice
