Really did. Had a need at SS, and starters to spare.
Plus Swanson has nice hair. He'll fit right in with Chris Davis and Kris Bryant. I should probably get an award for best looking team.
Good at what though...
Brandon Kintzler - Good at getting groundballs
Fernando Rodney - Good at wearing his hat sideways
Jeanmar Gómez - Good at being himself
Steve Cishek - Good at giving up bombs
That comes to a WAR of 76.2. I just used last year's numbers. Except I used 2015 for Harper, Pollock, and Harvey(because I like to fudge numbers).
I also didn't include the RPs in my calculation, or a bench.
The team you could assemble after the 2018 season.
C - Yasmani Grandal
1B - Daniel Murphy
2B - Brian Dozier / Jean Segura
3B - Josh Donaldson / Manny Machado
SS - Manny Machado / Jean Segura
LF - A.J. Pollock
CF - Charlie Blackmon
RF - Bryce Harper
DH - Rotation of Dozier/Segura/Machado/Donaldson (keeps them all healthy)
SP - Clayton Kershaw
SP - Carlos Carrasco
SP - Matt Harvey
SP - David Price
SP - Dallas Keuchel
RP - Andrew Miller
RP - Kelvin Herrera
RP - Zach Britton
RP - Carter Capps
RP - Cody Allen
RP - Craig Kimbrel
RP - Jeurys Familia or Brad Brach
I could actually probably see the reasoning behind the value of the RP in season. But in a keeper league like ours their value is depressed mostly because there's so many ranked highly, their roles are easily lost, and most fluctuate quite a bit from year to year.
