    I tried trading Nico Goodrum in the LOD last month and got laughed at. He's getting some AB's now and is proving to be a decent bat with some pop and speed from 2B.

    Rays have a bunch of those type of arms: Austin Pruitt, Ryan Yarbrough, and Matt Andriese. They're No. 5 starters at best and maybe 6th, 7th starters on a contending teams depth chart and aren't good enough to make it through 30 + starts over a full season. Use them only for 3-4 innings starting from the second inning on and they likely have more success. As well, gives the Rays BP like you said more options in multi-inning relievers if you ever need to use them again within those 4-5 days. For example, I'm sure if Andriese gives you 3.1 innings on Saturday out of the pen, I'm sure you can use him again on Monday for Tuesday for 3-6 outs if you need to before you have him go again on the Thursday.

    Well I shouldn't have used the word eliminate yes. But rather than starting your worst starter out of the gate, you use them in the 2nd inning on to pitch once through the full lineup and again until the 1-3 bats come up for a second time. If that goes accordingly to plan, that should get you to the 5th-6th inning before you turn to the pen again. Something even the Jays should try with their No. 4-5 starters not being the greatest. I'd like to see Biagini pitch 3+ solid innings from the 2nd inning on where he only faces the top bats in that lineup only once.

    2nd day the Rays are doing this. I'm going to tune into the game today. I'm really curious if this actually works over a long period. Might eliminate the 4th-5th starters of a rotation.

    Eric Gagne won a Cy Young in 2003. Depends on the other competition. Max Scherzer and Jacob deGrom have been really good though. Has a full time reliever ever struck out 200 batters in a single season? Would be remarkable to see in today's game.

    Would rather see Bautista DH than Morales.

    Could move a couple of decent back end rotation options if teams are looking for rotation depth. Would move for a draft pick. Francisco Liriano Ian Kennedy Jhoulys Chacín Dan Straily
  8. jaysblue
    Could be interested

    He's still rosterable in the LOD though.

    Jim should just be forced to wear a MAGA hat and t-shirt for a day.

    Sold my tickets for $50 less. I'm probably opting out of playoff tickets next year because MLSE jacks up the price so much that it's even hard to just break even on your tickets. Each pair in R2 costs me $416 and that's my season ticket price.

    I was a rebuilding team as well. Took over a team that wasn't a playoff contender and traded a bunch of veterans for younger assets and picks at that trade deadline when I took over for Chappy. I made a simple mistake by adding Antonio Senzatela which was my first ever offense. And I lost a valuable asset in a 1st round pick. I think rulings should be consistent on these issues. But yeah because its me I guess, my opinion really doesn't matter. Nothing against Jim and I'm sure he made an honest mistake, though like Greenwood said the penalties shouldn't be applied inconsistently.

    Last year when I made my illegal add I was travelling overseas for 3 months, so wasn't on the computer that much and it was my first illegal add as well. There was no compassion given my way, and I accepted the penalty of losing a first rounder. Jim shouldn't be given a free pass because he's new to the league. Last year was my first full year in BORED as well.
  14. jaysblue
    He should lose his first round pick like I did last year. It's only fair.
  15. jaysblue
    His BB rate has been unreal! I think he's gonna be a top 50-75 player at years end.

    Yeah was working really slow I found a bit.
  18. jaysblue
    If anyone is interested in a starter, could move for Straily or Chacin.
  19. jaysblue
    Would like to move Brad Lively 4 a similar pick like he was moved in the DDL.

    Ibaka couldn't grab a rebound and lost the ball so many times. Geez big difference from Game 1 & 2.
  21. jaysblue
    I'm glad I've kept Joe Mauer as a 1B. Loving me that .500 OBP!
  22. jaysblue
    Ian Kennedy or Francisco Liriano are available.

    It's because Silvergun has a personal vendetta against me for some reason. This was my first illegal pickup in this league by the way, and was an honest mistake due to the search function being messed up on the spreadsheet, though I'm willing to comply with any punishment that is decided. Ray is on my bench right now & will bench Greinke tomorrow.
  24. jaysblue
    Like I said, was an honest mistake. I did go to the Google docs first and nothing came back highlighted on the minor league roster page when I typed his name in, so I thought I was good. This isn't the 1st time the Google search function/tab has been fluky like this. I'll bench Ray and like I said another starter Stras or Greinke (whoever has a late start this week or your choice). Again, I'm sorry for the mistake.
  25. jaysblue
    I did a search tab on the spreadsheet and his name never was highlighted on the prospect page. I guess it didn’t work so my bad. I’ll sit two of my best starters this week. I’ll sit Ray tonight and either Stras or Greinke when they pitch next.
