Painful part is I traded Yordan Alvarez for Pham last year. Oops.

"Inflation is near 100%, because we keep 15."
there must be something else in play beyond that, no? my league keeps up to 11, but there are no more than a handful of players league-wide that would be kept if we had no limit - and this in spite of farmhands being only 5-S1 in their second full year. so adding slots would have barely minimal impact on inflation.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

I also like Pham this year and Lux for the future. I would have made him choose between Lux or the top 2 draft picks not both.
I traded for Pham in my only this off season only to lose him with out compensation (I didn't see it coming).

Plus, this is a mixed league, and when I say 100%, I mean it for top tier guys. All the extra money goes to the top tier talent, as it should imo.

I’m most concerned about Altuve. Wrong side of 30 now, deteriorated SBs, and shows very interesting power results versus expected in timeframes where he’s known and/or suspected of cheating. I’m certainly not buying at anywhere near his second half 2019 figures. I won’t avoid him completely, but will drop out of the bidding in the low 20s.I'm just here for the baseball.
