BTTF 2017 : Scoobus wins World Series (3 Viewers)

[Spartans Rule]

Surprised a few guys went before him. Yes, he has a noodle arm, and a noodle bat... but consistently good OBP. Was my #9 hitter most of last season to set up a lineup with my best power/overall bats at 2/3

He was on my radar. Would've been a fun catcher pairing with Gattis as total opposites at the plate.

slow guys clogging up the bases

[Spartans Rule]

I'll be busy between about 6-11 EST tonight. Since it looks really like I'll be up then, can someone take a list?

4th time I've had him in this, hoping for health this year.

14.10 Wilson Ramos, one-legged catcher, Rays

Please don't come back too early and wreck your rate stats. But please do catch at least 20ish games this year.

Chasing Pitching now with the Reyes news 

 

[Koya]

The next 10-15 rounds are the most fun imo. Most if not all team needs are done. Time for some value and/or upside without the tradeoff fear of not getting the last decent MI on your list before 25-50 more picks go off the board.

We're getting close to making a lot of these kinds of picks:

a) Hey! I've heard of that guy. Wow, he's starting/he's the utility guy/4th OF/6th SP?

b) Hey! That guy ... I owned him before. Meh, maybe he'll do something this year.

 

[the moops]

also at the time in the draft where you are like "oh #### I need a catcher 

 

[Eephus]

plenty of talent available

So far, it's only supposed to be a few weeks into April.

In baseball language, that means "out until August".

Right after

As I recall, WIS did some arbitrary limiting of how tandem starters could be used.  Was it you can't do a five man rotation with a tandem slot?

I sure would like this info

 

[Eephus]

Sucks for Tillman because he'll be FA in 2018

 

[Eephus]

I sure would like this info

Suggest you sign up for a free WIS Spring Training league.  Those use historical players and a salary cap which we don't have but it does provide the full range of manager options.

Tandem SPs are useful if you have guys who are good for 3-4 IP/G in real life.  These are usually pitchers who get shifted between the rotation and bullpen during the year.

Started at leadoff against lefties all year for the WS Runner up and best record in division (the one without the bloated records because of uber suckitude).
