That hitting is dripping in sex appeal, c’mon! YOU SOUND LIKE YOU’RE HAVING A BREAK FROM REALITY RATIONALIZING THAT PITCHING, SO LET’S SEE IF WE TALK ABOUT YOUR HITTING, MAYBE YOU’LL SOUND LESS HALF-CRACKED. Haven’t been this excited for a Samoan, since Afa or Sika. I’m a sucker for increased velocity in spring training, and he was a popular breakout candidate last year, before the down year. One guy who I am more enthusiastic about since I did my rankings is Sean Manaea. I like all of the guys I drafted, obviously, but if you draft Miles Mikolas or Charlie Morton and pop a boner for longer than five minutes, go see a doctor. Spending all of my money on hitting left me drafting a lot of old and/or boring innings guys. Of course, they might not get 160 IP combined, so that is a worry.
So, if they get more like 160 IP combined, my Ks go up. Both are being projected to only start 116 IP combined. Drafted Gavin Stone and Drey Jameson, and they have a negative $7.4 for strikeouts, because they don’t have enough projected innings. Anyone who has used our War Room knows that the later you are in a draft, the more some players have negatives for some stats. An explanation though about my strikeouts.
OH MY GOD YOUR STRIKEOUTS ARE SO BAD I AM LAUGHING VERY LOUDLY AT YOU. Here’s my Tout Wars, um, War Room totals (Toutals?): Anyway, here’s my Tout Wars, NL-Only draft recap:ĪLL RIGHT, I HAVE SOME THOUGHTS BUT GO AHEAD AND GIVE ME YOUR WAR ROOM TOTALS SO WE DON’T HAVE TO PUSSYFOOT AROUND FOR THREE PARAGRAPHS WAITING FOR YOU TO GET TO THEM. So, this is an 12-team, NL-Only league that uses OBP instead of average, and has a Swingman position, which means you can have an extra pitcher or an extra bat. Since I didn’t get Jordan Walker, there’s a case to be made I shouldn’t even bother to recap this draft, but the show must go on. Well, I do not know what was in that very authentic New York pizza at Sbarro, but that’s what I’m blaming for not being able to pull the trigger on Jordan Walker. Then the next morning I got to Tout Wars with all of my notes in front of me: Out to dinner with and prepping for at this place called Sbarro /ZF7ZqOEau2 He took us to one of New York’s most renown restaurants: Mine happens to be NL-Only, and happens on Sunday, so, after having Harold Dieterle, former Top Chef winner, on the podcast a few times, Geoff and I finally got to go out to dinner with him on Saturday night. As most of you, they have a bunch of leagues drafting over the weekend. So, went from the brutal cold of Los Angeles to the unseasonably warm NYC to take on the ‘perts of fantasy baseball in Tout Wars.
