  1. 10. TF - 11. BTS - 12. SPG - 13. TH - 14. HVK - 15. TH - 16. FTD - 17. DD - Torontofan's 12 hour clock will start at 8am. Reminder that there is no overnight break - it's just a straight up 12 hour clock.

  3. AA picked some carrots for the feast but it's not like he tore up the farm. Really, the state he left the 2016 pitching depth in was more concerning to me than the general state he left the farm in. Having absolutely no pitching depth beyond a few MLB guys forced a lot of MLB level moves and expenditures. Very costly when you add everything up - and the damage fixing it is still not done, probably. Sure it's a bottom third farm right now but it's not barren, and it's the type of deficiency that can be addressed over time with good drafting and signing, sound developing, shrewd trades, and maybe a comp pick or two. Shatkins can pick away at it; the farm isn't a pressing issue.
  4. "“With the (Bryce) Harpers, (Mike) Trouts, (Carlos) Correas and (Javy) Baezes of the world, there’s a core group of guys who can make baseball more appealing to the young kids, who can make baseball look fun. I feel that’s what baseball lacks sometimes, that fun element.’’" One of these things is not like the others...
  5. It's not a pressing issue so just have a look tonight
  6. Spreadsheet is getting a bit of an update since it's 2016, courtesy of z3r0s. There is a new sheet that will let us know about any draft pick errors. Should be really useful. It's already noticed a number of MiLB pick inconsistencies, so if you have the answer to any of those please say something.

    "Like, pretend Phaneuf made $5.5-6mil per year. Would you trade a 2nd rounder and Lindberg for that? HELL YES YOU WOULD. That's basically what we did here." "That thread about Murray's legacy? Close it. This is it." They are posting their top 4 and fapping over Karlsson-Method, Ceci-Phaneuf. lmao

    LOL I'm reading the thread. They are ecstatic.

    Phaneuf is either a non-asset or a negative value piece, so it makes sense if it's just all garbage. Toronto sneaking an Ottawa 2nd rounder into the trade might be the only value.
  10. He should be about as good as Brett Anderson IMO
  11. 1. KK - Kenta Maeda 2. BOX - Park Byung-Ho 3. TH - Hyun-soo Kim 4. KK - Michael Fulmer 5. GP - Eddie Rosario 6. SAM - 7. TH - 8. ZRO - 9. SPK - 10. TF -
  12. How do super 2 players scale vs. normal arb guys? Price just made 19.7 in his last arb year before FA (settled amount).
  13. Billy Beans knew he was going to win the MVP and get expensive. Shrewd move spinning him off for pitching depth before the gravy train swallowed the A's.
  14. No, they still control 2018.
  15. I'm thinking it's slightly more. I'm not sure how the arbitration process treats super 2 players (Donaldson) vs. normal three year arb players.
  16. He was seeking $11.8M in arb so this seems high
  17. New mechanics helped Bautista's approach a lot. The things aren't entirely distinct. Mechanics can help a player's rhythm and timing, which can help him be ready to hit, see the ball better, recognize pitches, understand which areas he can and cannot attack, etc.
  18. Gibbers is up for pick #5. I emailed him so he is informed.
  19. I suggest that you contemplate the trade right now, before your pick comes up, and then make your pick in a timely fashion if you still have it, you old fart.
  20. Well if you want to sit on Lee you could wait until the clock starts to tick and hope he gets added, I guess. Judging from past cases though, Yahoo wont add him any time soon. edit: Actually, nvm. We need to say the draft has already started and freeze the player pool.
  21. Eligibility refresher: - International prospects/players that were not subject to spending caps are eligible if they were in Yahoo's system at the start of the draft. - International prospects/players that were subject to spending caps are not eligible for the waiver draft. - Domestic prospects that played in AA or higher at any point last year are eligible, if they were in Yahoo's system at the start of the draft.
  22. Best to just say Lee is not eligible. It's even possible that he goes to AAA since Seattle has Lind, Cruz, Montero (no options). Could be like June when Lee is finally called up and added to Yahoo.
