I was surprised that Chris Davis went for 26. It seems high to me.

Depends whether you buy in to the fact that he'll be back on ADHD medication this year. Personally, I though $26 was ok fwiw.Comment

Yeah, Power is at such a premium now that he's worth at least that much in an only...he hit 26 last year in a horrible season. Chances are his average goes up by a fair amount, and with it, a few more homers as well. Not to mention he's got positional flexibility at 1st and 3rd...Originally posted by Big Tymer View Post"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

Always fun to watch Doug Dennis draft as no one goes as extreme offense as he does. $20 left for 14 players and not 1 SP bought yet.
Several owners held money for awhile but didn't see this bear fruit like in the AL as the values were never really there. Feel like this happened last year as well in AL LABR.Comment

I have a beer bet that Doug doesn't exceed $27 with his pitching. All hinges on what he does at 2nd catcher.Comment

The $6 spent on Carlos Martinez put the nail in the coffin there.Comment

I heard him say that he's actually won the league twice. But keep in mind that others are also trying some strange strategy...one team totally punted average, which I can't believe would ever work. They loaded up on speed, buying both Hamilton and Gordon, hoping to deal later when they have an insurmountable lead in steals. The whole problem with doing something like that is yoi may get 15 points for winning the category, but the 2nd place guy gets 14, no matter how far back he is. If you lose a category, you only get one stinkin' point...you have to win a lot of cats to make that up.Originally posted by Hobbesmonkey View Post"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

I'm not basing this on anything other than my own hunch, but I think an extreme little-money-on-pitching strategy would work better in a shallow league, where there will be adequate replacements on the WW if any of your fliers don't pan out, than a deep one. Back when LIMA was new, I might have felt differently about this, but these days everyone worth their salt knows who has the peripherals that could greatly improve their Roto stats.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerComment

AL LABR puzzlers:
- Robbie Grossman for $9? To Eno. What does he see there?
- $8 for CJ Cron seems like a little bit of an overpay. Hamilton concerns, I guess.
- $10 for Bonifacio
- $11 Pompey - how much room for profit is there with that price?
- Carlos Santana $28 - OK, I guess people were buying into the 2nd half performance? Seems high, assuming no C eligibility.
- Yeah, $30 for Prince is way too much for me.
- Reyes $24 seems low compared to Hanley $30. Is it the injury concerns with Reyes? I'd put them closer together.
- $5 for Graveman. Yeesh, that's some optimism, no? Or leftover money?
- $8 for Hahn. People like the OAK pitchers I guess. This seems closer to reasonable but still high. Kazmir also went for $8.
- $13 for Hughes seems like a good buyLast edited by SlideRule; 03-09-2015, 02:37 PM.Comment
