It's funny because Bautista probably would be an upgrade on Morales. I'm guessing both would project for about the same offense and Bautista has a tiny bit more defensive utility. Of course there would be like 50 realistic targets better than both of them...

Austin Meadows makes me sad

Holy f***. Last posted in November 2014. How and why

W....w....wilko?

It's annoying the piss out of me that Legitimate #3 Starting Pitcher Collin McHugh is just rotting in Houston's pen and getting mop-up innings. Can Lance McCullers hurry up and get hurt? I might be crunched into trading him or Ben Lively (3.40 xFIP and 5.67 K/BB!!!) for a pick or something. Surely there is a Lively fan in our league? Also, cutting Waino was definitely therapeutic.

Under a very big and very stressful pile of personal+social+professional rocks

Literally just noticed that Chad Green is an uber-elite reliever now.

Who is this guy? Did Bobby Bradley change his name?

Joey Lucchesi is like a little tiny Rich Hill, holy.

To be more specific about service time... A player can earn a maximum of 172 days of service time in any season. 172 days = 1 year of service time. There are actually ~187 days in the MLB regular season. So if a player is up for 172 of them, they are deemed to have played a full year. A player with 6.000 years of service time (or more) becomes a free agent. If a rookie breaks camp with the team and play 6 full seasons, at the end of season 6 they'll be at 6.000 years of service. If a team keeps a rookie down for just a few weeks in year one, then they might be at, say 5.170 in service time at the end of "year 6" and the club will end up getting 6 years and 170 days of the dude's life. If Toronto does this with Vlad so blatantly he will probably become part of a growing labour grievance

3.2 IP, 10 H, 8 R, 2 HR, 1 BB, 0 K. Didn't hit 92. I think you missed the sell window!

Alex Cobb ERA with the Orioles during this contract: o/u 4.75?

You were asking for it

Accidentally does some domestic violence

Vlad Jr. has a .357 ISO with a 5.7% K rate in AA through 7 games, lmao. He's basically already proven his talent is above that level.

I think it must depend on your device/browser. When I command+f in Chrome on my mac, it searches in the spreadsheet properly.

Jose Martinez is a stud

Thanks for the email. I probably would not have noticed this today without it. I think everyone is making some good points. We don't want to be punitive/draconian... ... but we do want to deter illegal adds I think if it's noticed before any stats are accumulated then for rare infractions we should not punish at all. IIRC this is how we've done it in the past. I don't remember any precedents of illegal adds where the player accumulated stats. It makes sense to try to correct what happened to the current matchup - regardless of what the illegally added player actually did. So part of the punishment should be to sit one or more superior or equal players that week - if possible. But it won't always be possible to do that, so we need a more consistent draft pick component. And the punishment needs to sting a bit if there is a windfall to the benching - say if Robbie Ray blows chunks, then jaysblue will have benefited from his punishment, which would suck farts. Repeated issues should probably add some weight to the punishment. FWIW it seems like jaysblue doesn't even check the spreadsheet sometimes. I can quickly find examples from our drafts: http://www.bluejaysmessageboard.com/threads/25-A-Very-Darrelly-Dynasty-League?p=1174027&viewfull=1#post1174027 http://www.bluejaysmessageboard.com/threads/25-A-Very-Darrelly-Dynasty-League?p=519243&viewfull=1#post519243 He's essentially a repeat offender when it comes to lazy picks/adds. And how egregious the add was should have some bearing. It's ridiculous to assume that, say, Senzel is unowned. It's more reasonable to assume that Tyler Beede is unowned at this point in his career. And similarly, we need to consider whether the mistake was made in good-faith. If someone does what Silvergums alluded to and decides to stream an owned player because the punishment is worth it in context, then that owner will be treated severely and possibly removed from the league. I'm assuming that jaysblue was just being kind of lazy, and not cheating. I like the idea of the opponent picking who the offender specifically has to sit. If possible. I doubt thehurl will be here in time so I'll make an interim ruling in this case. And I agree that we should record all this stuff for reference. RULING --> Jaysblue should sit Robbie Ray this week and lose his 2019 4th round pick for this. The pick disappears.

Did you guys see Robles’ horrendous elbow injury?

I’m getting Sale for a five piece package headlined by Kopech I just need to formalize the offer

Infielders available Joe Panik and Matt Duffy look great Neil Walker is good Orlando Arcia exists Would be looking for a SP or UTIL/OF

lollll yeah it would be real nice if commissioner roster changes weren't tied to the same next-day transaction system. Yahoo why!!!

I don’t understand why you insecure conservative faggots are obsessed with painting me as a left wing pinko.

I think you guys are kind of missing their point. @jenmacramos is trans and everybody ITT is/was saying "she" and "her". It says their preferred pronouns right in their twitter bio, so you should have known. If you had have just said "they're a misandrist" they probably would have made an account here and thanked your post. They were just mad at your pronouns. Can you blame them? It's the law.
