      My pitching is garbage, but my hitting leads the league in most categories. Didn't do as good a job as I meant to drafting prospects at the end but overall it was okay. Had a pretty poor keeper list and some other teams had $50+ worth of value kept than me but RotoLab has my team in 2nd (kinda far behind the leader). Good auction. CBS is the best draft room and it's not close.

        so what happens when there is no season? Do we all keep 10 guys from our draft this year and redraft next year? Do all contracts advance a year?

          Missed out on most of my young pitching targets - I really wanted to get Houser this year but he went for $5 late. Other potential low dollar targets for me included Musgrove, Civale, and Kim. I choked on getting Kim but the others went for $10 a piece, somehow. Also missed on some value with cheap Verdugo / Hilliard / C. Walker / T. O'Neill / D. Peralta snaked just before me.

            I tried to avoid all "old guy" picks since I still don't think we'll have a season. Encarnacion went for a steep discount. I like targeting old, steady guys when I'm trying to win a deeper league but in these circumstances (shallow league, short or no season) I switched strategies.

              I wondered about that, too. No real idea. I just sent $150 to a stranger today so let's hope everyone keeps it cool no matter what happens, lol.

                got my fingers crossed for pearson.

                I've now accumulated Lamet, Luzardo, Pearson, Manning, Sixto, S. Howard, and Tallion for $5 or less. If I can hit on 3-4 of them for next year it would look pretty nice.

                  This league went crazy for closers and catchers. It was super weird.

                    We hit 900 pages. I wonder if 1000 is realistic

                            What's the story around here? Trump and ... ?

                            Has the MLB season been delayed yet?

                                Rand Paul voting against Coronavirus funding while simultaneously exposing others to his own infection is the single most libertarian thing I’ve ever heard of.
