So, a bunch of Razzballers received collectively for an public sale draft at NFBC and I drafted a staff that features Corey Seager, and that’s the place the bizarre begins. “The place the bizarre begins” additionally sounds just like the title for each subreddit. In the event you confirmed me this staff previous to me drafting it, I’d say, “Seems to be like crap, get it out of my face!” Truly, I’d prolly say, “Cool, good staff,” however then I’d snicker! I’d snicker one thing terrible! Actual passive aggressive shizz from me! Only a snickering idiot! So many snickers till I’m self-satisfied. Then I’d shove your staff away from my face and say, “Begone!” I might hate this staff if it’s yours, and no less than I observe what I preach as a result of I hate this staff as mine too! Alas, we should muster on. Musterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! For these not within the know, it’s a 15-team public sale with two catchers that may be a weekly league. In contrast to lots of NFBC leagues we play in, it’s not draft and maintain. There’s a $1000 FAAB funds with weekly pickups. For, ya know, when Corey Seager will get harm. Is he harm but? Ha, I child, I’ve Byron Buxton to hold my manufacturing! If you wish to play towards me and different Razzballers, be part of a Razzball Commenter League, it’s free! Anyway, right here’s my 15-team NFBC public sale draft:
C: Salvador Perez – $15C: Hunter Goodman – $11B: Christian Walker – $232B: Brice Turang – $12SS: Corey Seager – $223B: Luis Rengifo – $15CI: Paul Goldschmidt – $11MI: Willi Castro – $2OF: Ronald Acuña Jr. – $30OF: Parker Meadows – $15OF: Lane Thomas – $8OF: Jesus Sanchez – $5OF: Byron Buxton – $3UTIL: Alec Burleson – $5Bench: Deyvison De Los Santos, Colson Montgomery
P: Roki Sasaki – $22P: Ben Joyce – $13P: Grayson Rodriguez – $18P: Ryan Helsley – $18P: Freddy Peralta – $13P: Cody Bradford – $6P: Andrew Painter – $1P: Michael Wacha – $1P: David Peterson – $1Bench: Nestor Cortes, Chris Bassitt, Brayan Bello, Rhett Lowder, Bryan Abreu
OKAY, NOW WHERE IS YOUR TEAM?
That’s my staff.
THEN EVERYTHING YOU’VE TOLD ME IS LIES. I’M TAKING MY DISEMBODIED VOICE AND FINDING SOMEONE ELSE TO HAUNT WITH MY CAPITALIZED AND BOLDED WORDS. YOU’RE NOT WORTH MY TIME!
I do know! I’m not proud of it both! The public sale warfare room likes it (sorta):
[SOBBING] I DON’T CARE WHAT RUDY’S WAR ROOM SAYS! I HATE THIS TEAM!
Properly, I do too! You know the way they charge your staff after the draft? It was rated effectively. That’s how I understand how a lot this staff sucks! I’m so doomed as a result of it rated the most effective of any of my groups ever have rated! It’s all due to that silly COREY SEAGER!!!
OKAY, DON’T STEAL MY SHTICK BY CAPITALIZING WORDS.
Sorry. However you’ve got the daring factor too.
TRUE. OKAY, TALK ABOUT YOUR TEAM, YOU IDIOT.
So, I’m a bit involved about strikeouts, if being trustworthy. That’s why I drafted so many innings on my bench. I don’t understand how Chris Bassitt on my bench goes to assist when in my lineup Roki Sasaki goes 4 1/3 with 6 Ks. All throughout my prime 20 starters and prime 40 starters and–effectively, you already know. I say repeatedly that I’m leaning into ratios over Ks, and I’ll be damned if that wasn’t what occurred right here. Clearly, I’m gonna need to do some work with this staff’s pitching, however right here’s the place the rationalizations come from: Individuals give up these leagues in July/August, and the best stats to realize on folks is Ks and Wins, as a result of persons are not grinding. Even when six groups give up, that leaves additional two-start pitchers on waivers to FAAB. Additionally, Andrew Painter and Cody Bradford are bringing down my totals. My pitching if I change Bradford and Painter with Bassitt and Cortes.
I personally like Bradford and Painter, that’s how the phrase ‘personally’ works, however the Warfare Room doesn’t like them. Properly, let me take that again, it’d like Painter, if it thought he was going to throw sufficient innings. I additionally don’t know if he breaks camp, and am not anticipating it, however we drafted in January, and loopy issues can occur from then till April. Loopy issues like Ben Joyce has already misplaced his job, in order that was an entire waste of $13 and, if I had been to re-run my Warfare Room totals, it could not assume my saves are nice.
A flyer on Painter (for 10% off the primary coat), Deyvison De Los Santos or Colson Montgomery isn’t the dumbest factor. If any of them look good in March, they’ll be double-digit if not triple-digit buys within the first FAAB interval in the event that they had been on waivers. Are you able to think about if Painter appears lights-out in March and breaks camp what his FAAB will probably be? Speaking roughly $500.
I WILL SAY YOU’RE BETTER AT RATIONALIZATIONS THAN FANTASY.
Thanks.
IT WAS NOT A COMPLIMENT.
As for the hitting, I feel I’m going to roster lots of shares of Acuña. Mentioned this quite a few occasions earlier than, however folks neglect how lengthy the season is. If Acuña is again Might 1st, he could possibly be a prime 15 participant, simply. Not for the ultimate 5 months, I imply by the point of the season’s conclusion, he’s higher than all however 14 different gamers. If he’s again Might 1st, I’ll be ecstatic. I can piecemeal a alternative outfielder for him till Might 1st too. I may transfer Burleson into his spot and simply choose up a sizzling bat off waivers for just a few weeks. Or transfer Burleson as much as OF and check out Colson or whoever. As for Seager, Goldschmidt and Buxton, a crapfecta of gamers I don’t like however got here at strong costs, they’ll be fantastic, I hope. I want mainly their seventy fifth percentile output. If Seager provides me 27/80/.275, I’ll be fantastic. If Goldschmidt provides me 17/8/.250, I’m okay with it. If Buxton provides me 100/400/4, then unbelievable! That’s video games performed/at-bats/curses spewed by me every time he hits the IL.
GREAT, THAT IS A SUPER POSITIVE NOTE TO END ON. YOU DIDN’T EVEN MENTION LUIS FREAKIN’ RENGIFO. MORE LIKE LUIS REN-GTFO WITH HOW MUCH YOU LOVE HIM!
Sigh, I do. To play towards us at no cost, hit up the under hyperlinks:
