Not an auction league. Keep 7-10 at no cost (well, the cost of players 8, 9, and 10 is that people who keep fewer players than you start drafting before you). My top six are locked (Trout, Stanton, Soto, Kluber, Buehler, Clevinger) but after that is a bunch of old/injury prone guys who I could try and get one more season out of...or Buxton/Sano.

Yes I am aware that keeping Buxton would be four OFs but I could trade one or just use the utility slot.

Trade Trout. You can have my whole team.

I feel like 3rd pick is a tough spot to be this year. Not sure who I'd take but you could make a case for JDM, Scherzer, Arenado, Lindor...

Jram or Arenado. I'd be wary of Lindor so high in the first right now. Calf strains can linger and severely hamper movement.

Do these Japan games count for week 1?

If you draft before they happen yes and if you draft after no. There is no retroactive option for drafting afterwards like there usually is for drafting after the start of the season.

Am I crazy offering Corea for Khris Davis straight up? It will fill a utility spot and Davis seems almost certain to outproduce correa this year. He also went one spot after him in the draft.

Depends who the other owner is. If he is a casual then he will probably mash accept because of name recognition and early career hype.

Surely he could fetch something back of need though. He is a proven good bat.

Serious answer. They are paying him dirt cheap and what they get in return won't match that. Like you said he is a proven bat and can give Goldy days off while DHing the AL games.

I'll probably hold onto Myers for another week or so, at least. I'll be sad if all my potential targets get snapped up and Myers continues to suck a fat turd, though.

Thanks for all the input, fellas.

Myers is batting .219 for the season and his average has actually gone down in the last month to go with 5 RBIs. Cut.

This is funny because I just picked up Altuve and Soto for Acuna Jr and Hiura. When I started reading the first few words of the first sentence I thought I found my friend’s SA account.

what history is that?


There have been talk of players that hit an extraordinary amount of home runs in the derby, especially in one round, having power slumps after the break. Most notably Josh Hamilton about 10 years ago. Might have been the coke though.

I mostly did that post as hyperbole but a case can be made I guess.
