Was that me?

It wasn't me

Adding Alfredo Despaigne  OF  Cuba

Drop Matt Cain

Very active waiver run

I was considering Trent Clark during the add/drop phase.

Very toolsy.  Probably a couple years out, no reason I can't wait though.

Berserker did you no favors in the closer department.  Chasing SVs in this league can be a full time occupation.

 

[Kraft...]

Eephus what the local buzz on Arroyo? Seems like he won't stick at SS but he can hit. Will it be enough for a corner OF is the question

It's always tough to get a read on Giants prospects based on Cal league status.  I'm interested to see how aggressively the organization promotes him.  If he can put up a good half season at AA Richmond, then we'll be talking.

He seems like better suited to be a useful player in real life than in fantasy.  He hasn't shown much power or speed yet and he needs to draw a lot more walks to have positive OBP in this format.  He's still young but this will be a telling season in his development.

 

[Kraft...]

Andrew Bailey, possibly relevant!

 

[Spartans Rule]

PayPal $50 to bensanders at gmail - everyone except HellToupee and Cheese who are rolled in from last year.

Last year I proposed we should lock rosters if money wasn't in by opening day and that seemed to speed up the process, so I'll stick with that as the plan.

BUMP

Hell Toupee, Cheese, Arsenal, Dr. Detroit and Greedygoat are paid. Need $ from the rest.

Andrew Bailey, who started the game Saturday, and Russell are two non-roster invitees with quite a bit of major league experience that could be on the outside looking in.

That's enough James Paxton speculation for me.

ADD Hyun-soo Kim OF BAL
DROP Erik Johnson

안녕 (goodbye) to Hyun-soo Kim.  What we've shared in our month together can't be measured in OBP alone.

The relationship was hot and heavy, but you both knew it couldn't last forever.

Believe I'm only missing NV and PIK now.

 

[Northern Voice]

Believe I'm only missing NV and PIK now.

I'll send tonight.

 

[Eephus]

Adding NCAA OF Corey Ray

 

[Doctor Detroit]

I'm not doing a PIK II, Electric Boogaloo but it's time to make a trade. 

Bunch of offers going out tonight to several teams. 

 

[RnR]

I'm not actively selling, but I do need to trim a couple of SP from this list.

Noah Syndergaard
Sonny Gray
Johnny Cueto
Chris Archer
Michael Wacha
Aaron Nola
Jose Berrios
Tyler Glasnow
Carson Fulmer
Nathan Eovaldi
Ian Kennedy
------------------------------

Make your offers according to the value of the guy you like.

I'm looking for young MLB OF bats in return, though I would entertain offers that can upgrade the INF and/or closers.

No one on my roster is untouchable if the right offer comes along.

 

[HellToupee]

I'm buying , who's selling!!

 

[Kraft...]

I'm buying , who's selling!!

Victor Martinez, Brandon Phillips, Melky Cabrera, Carlos Santana, Jake McGee, Collin McHugh

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Sorry I started watching Busty Cops V, Hawaii Five Ho last night.

cutch, Dee Gordon. and Cain all available along with any other player currently in majors. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Working on two big deals.  Wake up contenders!   

 

[Kraft...]

TRADE!  @cheese

offer > counter > counter > DONE

 

[Kraft...]

and another TRADE! So much excitement. . . . . can't take it 

 

[Northern Voice]

I feel like my Hector Neris add may be lost in the shuffle here.

I've been bat at replying to trade offers, mostly because I don't know what direction to take this team in.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

24 hour negotiation between Sparty and I to make that trade.  I think both teams came away with what they wanted, fun times. 

 

[cheese]

Top 5 should be fun race

 

[cheese]

Add college OF Kyle Lewis 

Dropping Sanchez to make room

 

[PIK95]

Darvish is OTB as soon as he gets a good start under his belt.  Same with Harvey.  Looking for close to MLB ready hitters for my 2017 season when I should actually be starting to be a factor again.  

 

[PIK95]

Also, give me Nick Senzel 2B Tennessee college kids.  Drop Socrates Brito.  

 

[Eephus]

Senzel & Lewis have been added.

Placeholder List

Jose Miguel Fernandez (Cuba) Dr D/Chem X
Yadier Alvarez (Cuba) Pik95
Kevin Maitan (Venezuela) SpartansRule
Lazaro Armenteros (Cuba) Pik95
Yulieski Gourriel (Cuba) RnR
Lourdes Gourriel Jr. (Cuba) Kraft
Alfredo Despaigne (Cuba) Eephus
Corey Ray (NCAA) Eephus
Nick Senzel (NCAA) Pik95
Kyle Lewis (NCAA) Cheese

CBS added Yusniel Diaz so I've removed the placeholder

Noticed the waiver wire is resetting based on standings each week. Is that supposed to be happening?

Also, Michael Pineda available at clearance pricing. You'll never get a pitcher with his K/BB ratio this cheap again!

Hmm, that's odd.  I'm semi-positive I set it to not reset when activating waivers at the start of the season.

I've set it back to not reset but the initial order is reverse of current standings.

 

[Northern Voice]

After picking up like 20 points this week, I'm going to attempt to keep pushing up the standings - looking for pitching.

 

[Northern Voice]

Also, I think I still owe

Picturing you sitting at your desk, laughing manically making that offer, knowing you're getting Turner from me because for team needs, homerism and shtick, I have to accept it.
