Carter Capps. ahhh the hazards of drafting early. I drafted 2 more teams over the last week or so. One more PRO20 league, and one just for fun league with a buddy of mine.

I offered him Daniel Murphy/Rodney for Kyle Seager. He countered with Murphy/Rodney/Quintana for Seager/Tanaka. I mashed.

DoctaFun posted:Absolutely grab the best player available for rounds 1 and 2, maybe even into the 3rd round honestly. Yeah, 1B is kind of a wasteland this year after the 2nd/3rd round after Abreu and Davis are gone. Every team I've drafted this year I've taken a 1B in the first 3 rounds, Abreu/Votto/Crush. I think Abreu is a pretty safe pick, he'll give you .290+/30/100. And I'm a believer that Crush's 2014 was an anomaly, I think he will hit at least .260 and maybe closer to .280.

My buddy offered me a tempting trade, but wanted some input from you guys... Give: Tanaka Get: Odor I love Odor, and am a bit worried about Tanaka's health. My current 2B is Kolten Wong. The problem I'm having is what to do with Wong if I take the trade. I've been trying to trade him for the past few days and no one is biting. So it would weaken my pitching and make Wong essentially a bench bat I guess unless I can find a buyer. rest of my SP: Cole, Lester, Shelby, Santiago, Joe Ross, Heaney 12 team H2H 5x5 thoughts?

I think Reyes will at the very least get as much of a suspension as Chapman did, and probably more. He's available in 3 of my leagues, but I think I'm not going to bother picking him up. He wasn't that great last year, and even after he comes back, who's to say the Rockies even want him back. It does put a cloud over Story's value though.

I hardly ever get a message with a rejection after the first offer. If you're persistent, THEN people will usually take the time to tell you they are not interested, but most of the time they will just straight out reject offers they don't like. And no offense, but that offer wasn't a good one. You're expecting way too much from people. Doltos posted:To each their own.

My feeling are pretty much exactly the same as yours on him. I like him, and picked him up in one of my leagues. In the other 2 leagues of mine where he is available, I'd like to pick him up, but can't figure out anyone to drop. But his speed and 2B/3B/SS eligibility makes him a perfect plug-in bench speed guy for H2H. He had 6 steals in 64 ABs in spring training which is some nice speed, and hitting leadoff certainly helps.

I mean he played in Colorado for 6 years and averaged 8/17. Nowhere near 20/20. Yeah, you're right after taking a closer look at his career stats.
