GuardBum 73 Posted March 17, 2017 It's been quiet. No trades announced. It's Madness I tell you. Maybe we'll have a little bit o' luck today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 17, 2017 I would have done the supp right away but people were concerned about injury to their drafted supp players so i figured no harm in waiting. I'm not sure what trades I'd even be interested in making Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lambert58 56 Posted March 25, 2017 All I know is anyone on my roster is available..... for a price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 27, 2017 I will probably keep my pick but of anyone wants to make offers for 1.5 in the supp I might be willing to move down a few spots for the right deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted March 28, 2017 Arenado dropping to sixth. Happy birthday to BC. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted March 28, 2017 Arenado dropping to sixth. Happy birthday to BC. as i alluded to when i made my own pick. I passed up the higher upside Arenado for Goldy because he fits my team needs. Chips in steals, can bounce back with HR's and placing him at 1st allows me to strengthen a weak outfield by shifting Wil Myers over. Arenado would have been sitting in my Util spot and would have had me looking for a trade. I never like to pick a player knowing that i'll need to engineer a trade. When Mung was OTC and both were available, I knew i'd be happy either way. Was sort of hoping Mung would make my decision for me but oh well. I also knew I was handing Arenado to BC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuardBum 73 Posted March 28, 2017 I now have a glut of OF but only 1 good one. Blackmon, R. Davis, Revere, M. Upton, Saunders, Pillar, Thames. The flexibility with Turner was nice with Travis just getting healthy himself and Tulo always getting hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lambert58 56 Posted March 28, 2017 I went with Dozier over Turner for several reasons: 1. If Turner has truly the year everyone beleives he can, he "might" get close to the numbers Dozier has already put up. (42 HR,99 RBI, 104 Runs, 36 doubles and 18 SB) I Will lose out on some stolen bases but everything else would have to go very right for Turner. 2. Dozier, while only a second baseman, allows me to move Matt Carpenter to 3B or 1B if needed as well. 3. I have flexibility at all my other positions with Peralta (3B,SS), Gyorko (3B, SS, 2B), Holliday (1B&OF), Wong (2B, OF). I do like Turner's upside but I need someone with more of a track record to help my team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted March 28, 2017 Though what Dozier did in the second half last year was far beyond any other point in his career. His career high for home runs was 28...then he hit for 28 in 72 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lambert58 56 Posted March 28, 2017 Though what Dozier did in the second half last year was far beyond any other point in his career. His career high for home runs was 28...then he hit for 28 in 72 games. What you say is true. I don't expect him to hit 42 bombs this year again. However, Dozier during his 4 full years has put up the following: 2013 - 72 runs, 33 doubles, 4 triples, 18 HR's, 66 RBI, and 14 SB 2014 - 112 runs, 33 doubles, 1 triple, 23 HR's, 71 RBI, and 23 SB 2015 - 101 runs, 39 doubles, 4 triples, 28 HR's, 77 RBi, and 12 SB 2016 - 104 runs, 35 doubles, 4 triples, 42 HR's, 99 RBI and 18 SB Any one of those years are great numbers for a 2B. I will take that consistency over potential any day. Don't get me wrong, Turner may outplay him in every category but I like Dozier for my team and my team needs. (was really hoping Arenado fell one more spot though). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GuardBum 73 Posted March 29, 2017 longest supplemental draft evah! If we hit 24 hours without a pick we may have to skip and move on. A person skipped can make their pick whenever they return, just like the NFL draft. But holding up too far will start to impact the season. Games start Sunday.
