that sounds interesting


let's put it to a vote.

Trying to sort all this out but looks like Gyno is leaving after this season. Then some drama in between.

Take IP away and replace it with another ratio category or any other category that a RP can contribute to - see what happens to the importance of SPs in this league if 5 of the 6 pitching categories can be swayed by stacking RPs

Won’t happen with the IP requirements. You need at least 4 starters to hit it as of now, outside of a rare 2start week by multiple pitchers. I’m living it now. Trying to get by with 3 SPs & it’s nearly impossible.

In the end relief appearnences are still unknown you can’t built a strategy around that lets you coast to our IP requirements in this league.

IP is not important & there is no way to argue that it is. People have tried since the start to justify it & they haven’t been able to

Skimmed through some of this.

I plan on not starting a catcher for a while unless I trade for one. Is this going to be a problem?

Serious question.

i assume you mean leave Castillo in the spot. Not a problem, 3 or 4 teams start DL guys, youre good

Yeah, you could just leave Castillo there.

Making excuses for this beat down youre about to receive this week?

So reviewing the rules and your proposed plan, this is actually okay the letter of the law, granted I question the strategy with Shark on your roster

"no prospects"

Honk, dont be scared off. You are one of the best streamers, this team and league is perfect for you. Let me break it down to you

"No prospects" is prretty subjective as is, especially if you rely on other people to tell you who is good, but you either have a good team and "no prospects" or you have a bad team with "prospects". Papzy is the only one that can really boast having both.

That said, I have Chado and Severino anchoring hitting and pitching, two of the top guys under 25. Hitting wise, Buxton, Margot, Bader, Teoscar, Ron Guzman are my "prospects", they just happen to be in the league. Pitching, Sean Reid Foley and Mitch White have been on top 100 list, Taylor Widener is leading AA in strikeouts w/ a 2.74. Joe Ross is 25. I have a few more Im eyeing here, it's not a finished product

I would only classify Cruz, Morton and Lester as old on my team. Votto is next at 34. Posey, Dozier, Didi, Thames, Hicks, Adams, Kuechel, Ross are all in their prime.

No 1st RD picks. They are overrated but you can be the judge of that.

This team is in better shape than 90% of the league.
