    1) There's no penalty. It's not a value determination. Just a list. Up to the reader to determine the significance. 2) You should get penalized for walking more. "a walk is nary but a hittor muzzling thy own lumber" - William Shakespeare

    Maybe Chuckles gets the most out of his players if you take a MACRO view. Terrible MICRO manager but what if, say, he was the one to finally get through to Guerrero that he needed to get in shape?

    Robert Puason is in the same league. .200/.269/.232 with 52 strikeouts in 105 PA. He's uhhhhhh ngmi

    Tony Santillan --> debut waivers

    1) I really don't know. Too early I guess. 2) Vlad has better tools than Juan Soto, without question. Soto is more like, a Joey Votto tool package.

    344 is mine
  7. Laika
    I dunno, I find something aesthetically pleasing about .175
  8. Laika
    Not that weird. Danny Jansen does this from time to time.

    See, it's tempting to put Guerrero #1. It seems like a complete homer move since Soto has been an offensive monster since 2018 and Acuna and Tatis are incredible two-way players, but Vladdy right now is performing at a level that none of the other three have ever reached over the long term. Perhaps within a season one of them has, I haven't checked. Basically, he may be significantly better than both Tatis and Acuna offensively and with his re-found athleticism and surprising defensive prowess at 1B the gap in secondary skills may be smaller than people think. Vlad right now: 4.1 fWAR, on 150 game pace for 9.76 fWAR Soto: 4.9 fWAR in best season (2019), 7.66 fWAR in 2020 projected out to 150 games Acuna: 5.6 fWAR in bet season (2019), 7.83 fWAR in 2020 projected out to 150 games Tatis: 150 game extrapolated fWARS are 7.65 (2021) 7.37 (2020) 6.42 (2019)

    MLB is disbanded then reassembled. Rank these players on your redraft board. You get them for a fresh six years. Just rank as many as you feel like. Acuna Tatis Soto Guerrero Franco Ohtani Bichette Albies Kyle Tucker Bieber Moncada Bellinger Gleyber Torres Robert Buehler Yordan Alvarez

    Lol he would be closing or setting up in Toronto right now. Massive projected upgrade on whoever their worst reliever is
  12. Laika
    Insane. To have a competitive team with players like Vlad and Bo, on top of that farm... I mean they better not f*** this all up somehow!

    Tiny part of me wants to just say let the freak be a freak. He routinely played the OF in Japan. Probably could do some type of schedule where his OF days line up with days he'd typically be throwing anyway, in pitching side sessions. Pitch, DH, RF, RF, DH, Pitch, and repeat.
  14. Laika
    Too early to call it a logjam since McGuire and Jansen suck and kind of suck. Adams is a bit of a longshot prospect. I do agree with you though that it makes sense to give some of these guys reps at other positions, in case several work out and trades just don't materialize. Adams and Moreno might be able to handle 3B and 1B, I dunno. But Adams is very likely to not hit enough for his bat to play anywhere but C - he's probably a JPA type hitter if he works out. Kirk will get DH reps obviously. I think the catching tandem in 2023 will more likely that anything be Moreno and Kirk.

    There are a ton of little options that are premium. Things like making it impossible to add red flag players
  16. Laika
    I'll vote no. I really don't want this to be a paid league. If there is some other major and obvious change that requires it to be paid, then maybe we make future picks tradable then. But no way we go paid just for future picks tradable
  17. Laika
    I don't think he has ever been billed as a wunderkind. Solid prospect but not a franchise guy
  18. Laika
    Reds laugh and hang up. They don't even need an OF, Winker, Castellanos, and Naquin are all doing well
  19. Laika
    I dunno man. The entire bullpen is on the DL, basically. Nobody other than the Dodgers has depth to cover that. Maybe the Rays, I dunno. In some sense I'm actually impressed that guys like Castro and Payamps have been as useful as they are.
  20. Laika
    Oh, your best reliever never pitched in a close game you lost by one run? Managerial malpractice.
  21. Laika
    Riley raise that trade value!!! Your time here is limited. You might get dealt for a reliever tomorrow
  22. Laika
    The high fastball is a new weakness, I think. A glaring flaw in 2021 that I did not notice previously.
  23. Laika
    He used to have a decent eye and decent plate discipline
  24. Laika
    Good point. Only rebuttal is the leverage was higher
  25. Laika
    Well Toronto's mostly are. A bunch of replacement level relievers!
