I looking over AL players to FAAB and saw that Mondesi was dropped and available. I put in a $5 bid totally expected not to get him but won the bid. In fact there was no other bids on him. I read that his recovery would take 6-9 months and have no problem stashing him as we have a 17-player reserve roster. Did I miss something?

He has not proven that he can stay healthy enough to make his auction prices worth it. He doesn't have to do much to make you profit next year. I think this is a fantastic get for you. Congrats!

Done with him. Waste of $5 in my opinion.

But lotto ticket? Sure.

Originally posted by Ken View PostThat's fair, it could be a good move. I just personally rejection the notion that anyone should "love" to have him. He's one of the guys I've hated having the most over the last couple years and I don't really know why he'll become less fragile going forward.
But lotto ticket? Sure.
This from Sept.2019:
Despite being limited to just 102 games due to health issues, Mondesi wraps up a banner campaign with nine home runs, 62 RBI, 58 runs and 43 stolen bases to go with a .263/.291/.424 slash line.
I would love to have that for 5 bucks. Heck I would take half of that and love it. 51 games 31 rbi, 29 runs 21 sbs for 5 bucks! Yes please.

Do you expect value out of Strasburg because of his 2019 season?
