RF Victor Reyes
LF Robbie Grossman
DH Old Man Miggy
1B Jeimer Candelario
2B Niko Goodrum
CF Jacoby Jones
SS Willi Castro
C Grayson Greiner
3B Isaac Paredes
That is... not a good lineup. They did just spend a little money on Robbie Grossman. I wonder if they spend a little more on 3B/SS/C if the market continues to ignore the 2nd and 3rd tier guys. And you wonder how long they wait on Torkelson.
Rotation:
Mattthew Boyd
Spencer Turnbull
Michael Fulmer
Jose Urena
Tarik Skubal
And the long-running Matt Manning/Casey Mize watch. I have to think they both spend a lot of time in the rotation. They also NRI'd Erasmo Ramirez and Derek Holland.
"Bullpen"
Bryan Garcia was the closer last year... Gregory Soto, Joe Jimenez, maybe Daniel Norris?

I've spent the last two offseasons debating keeping Boyd in an AL only 4x4 (no Ks) for $1.
And I'm from Detroit.
And I'm still not sure.One league, 28 years, 9 championships. AL 4X4
Current Lineup:
Ohoppe 2 Rutschman 22 JRamirez 40 Dezenzo 5 Lewis 6 Semien 26 Torres 20 Hamilton 10 Tucker 42 Cowser 1 Meadows 5 Holliday 17 Andujar 10 Robert 28 P Lopez 8 G Rodriguez 5 Ragans 5 Holmes 10 JDuran 10 McArthur 1 Miller 6 Crochet 10 Crawford 1

Originally posted by Sour Masher View PostThe no Ks makes a big difference. In a pts league or 5x5, I like him more than most. The Ks will be there. I am confident he will be better than he showed last year. But without the Ks, even his best case self isn't very good.
He seems to end up on my team and then I trade him before the deadline. Then I get him back in the off season.
I got him in a package with Kopech a few weeks ago.

Originally posted by Sour Masher View PostGiven the deadened ball, and that fact that Boyd's main problem is homers, I like him to bounce back a bit this year. I also like Turnbull better than his projections as well.
I do agree that Boyd may be the most-improved guy with a slightly deader ball.

Anybody dreaming on Akil Baddoo? First 2 games, 2 HR, 1 SB.
I liked him as a prospect years ago, but I dropped him and watched as he dealt with injuries in the years since. Now that he's finally healthy, the power/speed combo is in play. I managed to get him for $4 at the end of my AL Only auction. A nice keeper price if he can claim a starters role going into next year. Detroit has some decent OF that I like, but they'll make room for Baddoo if he forces the issue.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

He's got good speed, but not what I'd call awesome. His minor league numbers indicate a guy who's capable of an above average BABIP, but his .420-.450 clip since 2019 is.....well, baffling.

Any stats he gives will have to do.
