Gimme Suarez
That's EZ for me, but I've been a Suarez truther since his prospect days
Pip
4:23
I traded a $7 Knebel for $10 Mondessi. Good trade? I already have Vasquez and Morrow.
Brad Johnson
4:23
Amazing swap
Rick
4:23
Jeff Samardzija....ignore 2018 or the beginning of the end?
Brad Johnson
4:23
I don't think we can ignore, but I'll try a flier on him in 12-mixed
Brandon Lowe
4:23
Is there a path to playing time for me next year? 28 HR's and a 10%+ BB rate across 3 levels seems valuable with playing time
Brad Johnson
4:23
Sure, but the Rays love to juggle workloads and there are a lot of red flags in Lowe's numbers
4:24
Starting with a ludicrous 17.6 percent SwStr%
Craig
4:24
So nats are out on Harper, good news for Robles, right?
Well, they are probably out on Harper after paying $140 million to Corbin.
Brad Johnson
4:24
I have to assume so
4:25
Going after Harper never made much sense for them. It's an inefficient use of resources.
What they should do is turn around and trade for Goldschmidt
run an OF of Eaton, Robles, Soto, Taylor, and a cheap free agent vet (Maybin?)
4:26
And if they're really feeling spendy, get DJLM for 2B. Or if not, Kinsler
So Rendon, Turner, Kinsler/DJLM, Goldy around the horn
Difo backing up everything
4:27
Zimmerman withering on the bench (who cares)
Billy Bathhouse
4:27
How many PAs apiece can we expect from Danny Jansen and Russ Martin?
Brad Johnson
4:27
I don't think Martin's going to start the year on the club. If he does, I bet he sees more time in the infield than catcher
So call it 400 each?
Dude
4:27
Who has a better 2019: Kepler, Tapia, or Happ?
Brad Johnson
4:28
I'll take Kepler
A better answer is "not Tapia"
As I don't think he'll start without a lot of injury help
If the Rockies believed in him at all, he would have been playing a long time ago
Purple Mays Haze
4:28
Daily league: Conforto, Schwarber, Joc, or Grichuk?
Brad Johnson
4:28
EZ Conforto
4:29
on that note, it's time to run. Good game folks
I'm going to move the stuff I hyped here:
4:30
The Dynasty To Be Named Later (DTBNL) has seven open slots. A beta constitution is available for review. And if you're a patron, you can join immediately. I'm very proud of the overall league design which I expect to iron out several of the shortcomings I find with most 20-team dynasty leagues. Also of note, we have Discord integration for trade talks.
