Trudem is on the clock

ok 3 more rounds to go

Iwakuma and Machado- I like them both, but my strategy in this no movement league was to avoid injured players.

Thanks tlance, I kept waffling on him as well. Matter of fact, I had Alex Wood all set for my next pick. Nice pick by Molsan.

So tlance, lemme get this straight: you are punting wins? Is this the strategy someone posted on a thread awhile back?

Wins and Ks are out the window, but my team has a chance to win literally every other category.

I have tried to make a run in HRs and RBIs but had to punt OBP to do it.

Milk your up

 

[MilkSpiller22]

I think i have the most ballanced offense... But the question is if it is too ballanced??

Interesting gamble with Springer. I hope I am wrong, but I think early June is the best case for his arrival.

I'm going to win the league

I screwed up. I thought they were keeping him up and after you posted I just looked and saw he was demoted Thursday.

Just took CC... hope he has a bounce back season... My rotation has lots of question marks but it is actually potentially very good...

Doesnt matter, we are all going to get so hit with injuries, that taking a sure thing(??) prospect wont hurt you too much... And i hope he is good, i have at least one Astro in all my leagues... so he can only make the others better...

With that said does anyone else think the Astros potentially have a top 10 offense??

U think this

C . Jason Castro
1B 1. Marc Krauss
2B 1. Jose Altuve
SS 1. Jonathan Villar
3B 1. Matt Dominguez
LF 1. Robbie Grossman
CF 1. Dexter Fowler
RF 1. L.J. Hoes
DH 1. Chris Carter

Will score over 700 runs

they were 26th last year

But springer and singleton are near guarantees to come up this season... and Springer is projected to be a 30-30 player... He is projected to be the next trout...

Houston has some nice pieces for the future, but I don't think they are ready this year.


JD is on the clock

Of course, i am exagerating... But i do honestly think they are not going to be a bad offensive team... as for pitching they are still terrible...

Way optimistic on Springer.

He K's 30% of the time, so he is far from a can't miss guy. He could be great, but he could also be a AAAA player.

pretty much true of any player Trout did not do great his 1st stint in the majors but he was only 19

 

[obxyankeefan]

The wife finally got home(she was supposed to be back at 1) so I am out.

I will try to keep up with the draft on my phone.

True.

My point though, is that there are many prospects safer than Springer. What he has going for him is spectacular upside.
