    I'm not saying stars and scrubs can't work in RJEL, but it seems like it'd be very hard. For one thing, it feels like the more teams there are, the more likely that someone else is going to have fixated on each guy you want and you'll get run up to absurd prices by different people for each star. For another, if you do that and it doesn't work, it can be pretty tough to find someone to trade a $55 Altuve to who isn't already capped out or at least worried about that.
    In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

      I'm only going to $54 on Altuve :P
      If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

        Then I don't think your strategy is going to happen. Note that last year, Bautista went for $56, Encarnacion $51, JUpton $50... Altuve is going over $55. If your plan is to get three stars for $130, it's going to be something like Frazier, KSeager, and Kipnis.

          Justin Upton, yes. The other one, not so much.
