Fantasy baseball success this year as I nabbed a couple dynasty titles plus a @fantasysixpack@Fantrax league win that was a lot of fun and resulted in a @TrophySmack award larger than my head. Good times.
@seditiorebellum@Flip_ding0@NYCMayor@grok Yes, and you allocate to cover the contingencies so you don’t run out in the middle of a project when you find out that you have to do asbestos remediation in a densely populated neighborhood and/or the joists are rotted, etc. this ain’t a suburban home’s shingles.
@BriMcCaskill@enosarris Jazz is only 28. He might as well take the QO, hit in a bandbox for another year and try to reestablish his value for an unencumbered run at FA as a 29 yr old.
@EricCrossMLB@musentango Well, they have three other LH OF though. I’d rather play Anthony v a tough lefty than Duran. It was a tough offseason when other teams didn’t value Abreu and Duran to the degree the Sox did.
@FabianArdaya@ByRobertMurray I love Dustin May, but he’s at as many innings as the last five years combined. He looks cooked, his numbers are awful, and now the Sox give away the only hope from the Devers deal for two months of tired arm? Sweet.
@wbridgefa@kaseyklimes Most of us have been on one or both sides of that stroller.
And most of the women I know don’t share your feelings about forced smiles on the street. Occasional, genuine smiles? Sure. The fake smile and checkout chit chat of my Nebraska youth? Exhausting.
@wbridgefa@kaseyklimes As my 12 yr old said to my Midwestern dad “u say hi to about 6 people in your day. U don’t smile & say hi to every passing driver in your car. I see 200 just on my train ride to school. If I said hi to everyone I’d be exhausted before 1st period, and I’d still have my trip home.”
@Ethan_Norof@JeffPassan All I’m saying is that there are fans, casual and vested, who liked the clock. Too many dudes (and they’re always dudes) discount the possibility that it was a change for the better. Its affect in tandem with velo jumps, may be bad for arms. That I don’t know.
@Ethan_Norof@JeffPassan Then you don’t talk to many people outside your bubble. I have friends who are agents and the pitch clock is the first thing to make them worry less about the health of the game. The non-fans in my life wouldn’t consider baseball before it. Now that games are more like 3hr 🤷🏼♂️
@Ethan_Norof@JeffPassan It used to be you could pan the crowd and 75% had their heads in their phones. That declined dramatically. I used to put baseball on in the background and only look up if something happened within those 4+ hours. Now I actually watch again. The clock ain’t all bad.
@DerekVanRiper I really appreciate that he’s got a sense of humor about it, unlike several prospect writers (whose work I love) who seem to loathe the fact that 95% of the people supporting their work do so because they want the info for dynasty teams. High five, AJ. 😀
@RaysFacts5@BigBobsCards Agreed, but let’s not pretend that Tyler Nevin is a major leaguer either. If anything, after proving he couldn’t make the Rockies or Tigers, perhaps he's in Oakland to make sure JD Davis doesn't hit his playing time bonuses.
