I don't get the Raul Mondesi call up. He missed 50 games due to suspension this year, and still needs work in the minors. Disappointing as an owner, because it looks like he is going to lose rookie elg this year while not being read to contribute.

Originally posted by chancellor View PostI'm betting no, but will be throwing him out early hoping about six owners disagree with me.
But clearly, they think his defense and speed are ready now, and they think the best place for him to refine his hitting is in the majors. They are willing to let him learn on the job, but there will be growing pains offensively. I still think, despite everything I've said, he has a chance to develop into a quality every day middle infielder for roto, so I'd go the extra buck in a keeper league. But in the short term, don't expect a good BA, and don't expect any power. He has been told to focus on contact and legging out singles and stealing bags.Last edited by Sour Masher; 03-27-2017, 01:09 PM.

He went for $3 in AL Tout Wars. For comparison, Jorge Polanco went for $10. At those prices, I'll take Mondesi.
What's the long term upside? Jimmy Rollins? Roberto Alomar? Is the downside Nick Ahmed with speed?

If he'd go for a buck or two, I'd probably be in. I'm hoping for a bidding war.I'm just here for the baseball.
