Random Fantasy Baseball Thoughts

Andre Ethier has a challenger for the oblivious title, in Dan Uggla.

Uggla doesn't believe he's a bench player, and will opt out of his MINOR LEAGUE contract if he doesn't make the Nats.


LOL!!

With a two year average of .171/.291/.326, I'm pretty sure everyone but Mrs. Uggla disagrees with the 35 year old.

Rumor has it that Josh Gordon is heavily recruiting him for the car business.

If the Cardinals were smart....wait, that doesn't sound right. But it's all I got right now.

Wong
Carpenter
Heyward
Holliday
Adams
Molina
Peralta
Jay

would be there order. With Wong at 8, and everyone else up one, it makes no sense. Carpenter isn't a threat on the bases, but a good contact hitter. Holliday is not 25 years old. Wong is a threat on the bases except the pitcher is behind him, so nobody cares. Glad I'm not a Cards fan, but I am a new Wong owner. Just seems like they're wasting him and subsequently their whole lineup.

What are y'alls thoughts on Odubal Herrera? I drafted him for a $1 in a yahoo 11 team mixed team auction draft (he has 2b/ss eligibility) that had Neil Walker drafted for $16, Odor and Lawrie for $8 and Micah Johnson and Semien for $6.

 

[TKOSpikes]

I say that's a great dollar!

 

[Chef99]

I agree, some bang for your buck!

So, how many more free passes does poor lil' Joshie Hamilton get? Just wondering, can anyone explain to me how he did not violate the substance abuse policy?

 

[Chef99]

Yep, that's my Metsies! Sign Lagares to a $25 mil deal and bat him at the bottom of the order. And once again, put Grandy at leadoff! Y'know, that's because he did so well last year in that spot with his .283 OBP.

This isn't 2007, and these ain't the Detroit Tigers.

Terry Collins is an idiot.

So Pollock gets benched today. great, Grand, WONDERFUL!

I quit. I officially know nothing, and continue to be flabberghasted due to Major League managers.

Seems to me the new manager is just fucking around at this point, also benching Owings for Hill. Probably gonna see a lot of that. If Trumbo starts making errors in right field, he might get benched as well.

Todd Frazier is a beast. Might wanna trade for that guy.

Hamilton's the guy who blows me away every time I see him run. Can you imagine if he hit, say, .280 for the year?

Adrian off to another monster April.

I've said it before and caught flack for it, but Billy Hamilton could have a 100 stolen bases season under the right circumstances. If he gets on first base, stealing second is almost a guarantee with his speed.

If he can get his OBP up to .350 then he could be scary good... Let Joey votto teach him how to walk!!!

3 games in.....6 for 6 in sb. If he gets on base it's ridiculous.

Man, Bauer and Shane Greene did a job for me yesterday. TKO, now I see why you're so high on Greene.

 

[TKOSpikes]

I have Bauer, Harvey and Greene each on three of four teams. Not a bad first week!

although bauer still scares me, he did have 5 walks in that no hitter...

 

[TKOSpikes]

And 11 K's! I'll take it.

Being scared is justifiable, I might bench him against the Chi-Sox next week and watch from afar.
