  • I actually like Robert more than Bichette. I’m having buyer's remorse!
    More American children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active duty military.

      Longterm I love Robert, I have him in RJEL. This season, I wonder if he might struggle some. With his speed and power unless he struggles mightily with K's he should be pretty valuable I suppose.

      • I also picked up Tarik Skubal in the RJEL rookie draft. I'm excited about his potential. For you subscribers to the Athletic they have a good article about him.

          I don't generally target guys that have such poor on base skills because I worry that there is a much smaller margin for error with guys like that. It's why I don't tend to end up with guys like Adalberto Mondesi, probably to my detriment. My preference for three true outcomes guys has screwed me over both in VD and fantasy.

            especially in OBP leagues I worry about high K/low walk guys. But Robert sort of fell into my lap and he is a pretty dynamic and exciting hitter

              Yep, pretty much the same with Bo Bichette. Plus, the Jays love him so much they're apparently not even going to employ a backup SS, instead using a utility guy in Drury. So even if the rate stats suffer hopefully the counting stats will accumulate.

                          I have lots of questions.

                          Where was that stooped and mealy-colored old man I used to call Poppa when the merry-go-round broke down?
