By the way, I would trade Rizzo for Bryant straight up.

Am I the only here who would take Rizzo first?

I love rizzo. Overpaid to get him in Tdbl.

However, I think Bryant is a can't miss superstar that will consistently be a top 5 fantasy player.

I mean, I am basically gay for Bryant as a Cubs fan, but Rizzo seems to be a first or second rounder for the next seven years.

Of course, Bryant could be a top 3 player, but I am more than happy with the top 15 guy.

I also still am not positive of what the OP is looking for.

So that means you'd give him up for two guys that haven't done it at all?

I'm just playing devils advocate here. Like I said, Id take Bryant over him straight up.

I acknowledged the risk with bryant and pederson. i would gamble bc the payoff could be enormous.

Bryant has more ST HRs than the Braves and Mariners do as a team. The bomb of Felix tells me all i need to know about him. Pederson is hitting like .500 last time i checked with a few bombs. Most hits in ST so far

I am just confused how ST tells you so much, but you need more than a full MLB season to gauge Rizzo.

I'd probably trade Rizzo for Bryant straight up too. The funny thing is that the Bryant owner would probably reject. The hype is insane.

Are you drunk?

I've said twice that the young guys are a roll of the dice. They have no major league track record, so ST is the closest thing to gauge how good they can be against MLB caliber pitching

And I said Im skeptical on rizzo being a consistent 30 HR guy. It's not like I think he's james loney

FWIW, I offered Adam Jones for Bryant in one league, and I value Jones & Rizzo similarly. I wouldn't be keeping Pederson over Posey though.

What round does Bryant go in a 12 teamer this year? Redraft.

At the 1-2 round turn. Usually anywhere from picks 10-16

I wouldn't be interested in Bryant in a re-draft before the 4th 5th round at the earliest.

I read that as Rizzo; excuse my idiocy.

ADPs for players like Bryant are largely worthless since there's such a large deviation in possible outcomes.

Someone is always going to reach for Bryant anyway because they are drafting with their hand on their dick.

I don't think anyone really knows. I don't even think Theo Epstein knows.

That said, if he does get sent down, he'll be back up after 9 games(12 days).

So that shouldn't affect where he's drafted?

9 games? Naw... especially not in a standard re-draft. I can see how someone could possibly value him a little less in a roto, but in the grand scheme of things, it's just 9 games.
