  1. Yeah Upton is comfortably above average but his deficiencies keep him from being a real star. If Toronto bought him to replace the Saunders / Pompey time share in LF, that would probably be a ~1.5 win upgrade. Not exactly the impact you want for this type of investment.
  2. Cute Why don't you guys go play cribbage, dinner is in 3 hours
  3. CC20 for Erik Johnson Sox sign Fister and the good guys sign STEVE PEARCE
  4. Yes, if they could get some economic upgrades on a few of their black holes and add some depth to make their team more robust then they would be fine. I don't really think it's a tall task. I mean their core is as good as a lot of competitive teams. Sale-Quintana-Rodon; Frazier-Abrea-Eaton (and Lawrie-Avila/Navarro-Melky can contribute); Robertson-Jones-Duke-Putnam-Petricka. No excuse for a team like the White Sox to let an arm like Bud Norris go to Atlanta for $2.5M. Actually, Steve Pearce would be a superb target for them.
  5. Not really. It's just a high variance roster. As many holes as there are star players.
  6. Surprised he only got 6 years. Should have gotten more than / at least as much total $ as Chris Davis. Not surprised to see the Tigers sneak up on one of the big OF bats.
  7. Coolest thing about Judge might be that he's walking basically as much in the minors as a guy like Joey Votto did. A guy with a strikezone that big pulling that off seems kind of good.
  8. Save for De Leon, Judge might have been BPA since Glasnow went off the board.
  9. Are we dipping him in Bronze?
  10. Sheet says you don't even own that pick. Are you not trading Rendon anymore in the other league?
  11. Guy is a 60 hit, 60 speed, 50 power sure-thing MLB shortstop whose tools have been positively buried in an ostensible sense by perplexing assignments from his team. The kid has been 5 years beneath the league average age at every level. A potential star, hiding in the shadows.
  12. Manaea is very divisive. His peripherals are excellent and speak to a top-of-the-rotation potential, his ballpark situation is ideal, and by all accounts he has a starter's arsenal (something like 60/55/55). But many mentions of him are unexpectedly lukewarm. BP and BA both didn't even put him on their midseason top 50 lists. I own him in the DDL and have included him in a lot of trade offers, but nobody seems to care about him. Who cares that "his delivery is stiff" or whatever when he gets results? Maybe it's just the injuries and lack of 2015 workload that kind of holds him back in perception.
  13. Oh, neat. Maybe we'll cutdown and draft even earlier then.
  14. Let's make the cutdown deadline Feb 11th at midnight, and then we will start the waiver draft on Feb 18th. If Yahoo isn't open on the 18th, we will start the draft as soon as Yahoo opens and the rosters get inputted. Any objections? An 11th cutdown date should let people who are going away pre-rank and share a list with someone, if they need to. Actually, maybe we should do it even earlier.
  15. Do you remember what week it usually opens? Is it typically before or after the Valentines day? I can't recall
  16. I'm not really concerned about accommodating everyone. Just me, since I'm the commissioner and have to kind of run the thing
  17. Matt Olson and Bobby Bradley?
  18. I am on vacation Feb 14th-20th. We should probably make the keeper deadline before that. Normally we don't do the waiver draft until Yahoo opens so people can add their dudes as they go. Also, since we are able to draft unowned prospects that have hit AA, it helps to wait until Yahoo opens because the prospects that they put in their system are kind of random. So I'm not sure yet. Hmmm.
  19. yikes, hope sammy doesn't leave the real league too
  20. you don't need 20
  21. I might play again this year former champ contemplates comeback we should get all the old boys to do it noxage included $20 league w/ $200 to regular season champ and $200 to winner?
