  1. He's already showing some signs of tiring, I can't see this holding up for 9 more outs. But even if it doesn't, amazing performance today.
  2. 12 pitches an inning would put him at 119...that really would push the limit of Counsell's comfort zone. 10 an inning would be 113....tough, but not implausible.
  3. Burnes fortunate on that AB. Pitches 1-4 weren't strikes and the 5th pitch the 3-1 that he swung at was borderline.
  4. Agreed. We don't do any auction bidding, just $100 FAAB for waivers and like you guys, an annual rookie draft. I agree though, I loved the deal. Obviously AJB is a top WR asset. I also find Cousins to be criminally undervalued in Superflex. Since I didn't get any high quality SF quarterbacks I had to try to make it up in quantity and snagged Tannehill, Mac Jones, Cousins, and Jordan Love.
  5. I definitely like the potential matchup with the Dodgers the least. Not that we can't win or can't lose to the others but they are the only team that can really match up with us pitching wise, even without Bauer. Getting the 2 seed in the NL but finishing with a better record than the Rays is probably our best chance at winning the World Series in terms of win probability.
  6. I agree H2H is far from perfect but I've played both formats and when it's a straight points league it's just not as fun. At least assuming you're in a league with friends that you can have fun trash talking with throughout the season. Main point is there are flaws both ways. I would never want to do a straight points league. Just boring. But straight points should be the primary playoff tiebreaker, not H2H.
  7. Love AJ Brown I would have went with him also. Honestly either way you go picking between those two guys there's really no wrong choice. If you're worried about Julio cutting into Brown's production I really don't see that happening, Brown's a stud. Agreed, can't go wrong. I actually got both this year in a SF Dynasty startup. Drafted Jefferson at 2.04 and traded Jeudy and a 2022 1st for AJB and Cousins.
  8. Can a dude just hit a grand slam and admire it for once without being admonished by baseball purists and opposing fans?
  9. Utterly depressing how vintage a video from 2001 looks.
  10. I mean.... maybe overrated. but lame? Just first now realizing that you guys aren't talking about Dwight Clark.
  11. I'll go with anything north of Rhinelander.
  12. Well, I'll put it another way then. If Willy Adames did it on October 13th, 2021 in a playoff game, I don't think anyone would have any idea what play we were talking about 5 years later.
  13. You won't get grief from me about it. I totally agree. I just don't see what was so special about that. I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I could never understand why the announcers were screaming like it was the greatest thing they had ever seen.
  14. This. There's nowhere to run. Dak is getting his. Stick with what works. Don't force it.
  15. I might get surrounded by torches and pitchforks for this (especially if I was on a Yankee board), but I'm gonna say it: The "flip" was an overrated play. There, I said it. Jeter ran to cut the throw off and flung the ball like 40 feet to the catcher for the out. Great. It was a very nice defensive play, not some iconic moment in baseball history that should be replayed for decades. If Jose Hernandez had done it against the Pirates on a random Tuesday evening, we never would have heard about it again.
  16. I drafted Dak and Cooper in a dynasty superflex startup. Not regretting that yet.
  17. Dak looks like Dak. Antonio Brown looks like his vintage self. And Tampa Bay looks like a more dangerous version of their SB winning team with a year now to gel.
  18. There are definitely MLB franchises and owners that sit on piles of cash and don't prioritize winning. That clearly doesn't happen here under Mark A. Does he make money off the Brewers, I'm sure he does. He is a businessman and I certainly don't expect him to operate the franchise at a loss. What they can afford to spend on a year to year basis I will leave between him and his accountants. As long as he is making an earnest effort to invest money and resources in quality players to put a winning product on the field and not solely looking to profit off the team with no intention to invest in a winning team, that is good enough for me.
  19. Eh. Maybe. Starting Pitching >>>>>>> outfielder I mean Grisham is worth far more than Lauer given WAR and service time. The Padres would never do it anyway, although it would be hilarious. You could not possibly be selling higher on Lauer if DS pulled off a deal like that. I get what you're saying in a vacuum but obviously it depends on the quality of both players plus salary, service time, all those other things.
  20. If you were into 90s wrestling and have a subscription to Peacock, go back to the RAW episode mid summer 1994 championship match between Bret Hart and the 1-2-3 Kid. IMO one of most underrated and best matches ever.
  21. I have very little doubt that Ashby is going to be on the playoff roster as a guy we want 2-3 innings out of every couple games.
  22. I have seen enough of the Phillies to know I would rather not face them in the playoffs. I've seen enough of the Dodgers in the playoffs to know I would rather not face them if we don't have to. Anyway, I don't expect the Phillies to sniff the postseason anyway.
  23. I'm getting more and more invested in the Giants/Dodgers race with our race all but over. I want so bad for the Dodgers to end up in the WC game and lose like 3-2 and that's just it for them right there.
