Dream Team Baseball League

Also, I'm eager to find out in which round Mike will snipe me on Franchy

I would vote for us to keep moving forward with the draft. If for no other reason, it would be something normal to follow/participate in right now ... And maybe Kevin can run some OOTP simulations for how the season may play out

hi Kevin

Could we keep Franchy Cordero and not add Anthony Santander?

I see Ohtani has been added as an OF. Since he pretty much will just be UTIL and (I think?) he has not played any position in the majors, would it be possible for whoever drafts him to choose if he is a 1B or an OF?

Looks good, Kevin.

To piggyback on the Hampson item, I think he has a better chance at playing time than Kingery. And I've heard Hampson talked about a fair amount on offseason podcasts, but Kingery seems to be an afterthought. It is tough to call which will actually get playing time.

I have a ...

I think option 1 is the way to go with our league.

We never have allowed position flexibility. It's always been 1 player at 1 position. I don't see a point in changing that just because a player hits and pitches. I think we would have to open position flexibility to all players (allow Machado to ...

thanks guys! Without Judge maybe this would have been a close race

UPDATE: Cody Allen has been traded

Do you regret not jumping at the chance to acquire Cody Allen last season? Have you beaten yourself up all winter due to your inaction? Well, I have good news for you: Cody Allen is available once again! I'm looking for draft picks, MI or SP. Feel free to send offers, DMs, etc., if you have interest ...

Mavs' RP Cody Allen is on the trade block. Looking for 1B/3B in return

I feel silly still talking about this.

Seems like I'm the only one to assume that Santana would stay at catcher based on recent history (ie, the previous season). This is the first I've heard of the DH not counting as a position, and in the past it had seemed to me that exceptions were made ...

I didn't think it was necessary to ask. Vmart played 3 games at C and remained at that position just one year earlier. Didn't expect a drastic change in course to be made immediately

C'mon Kevin. That doesn't make sense. DH has to cout as a position. Your response to the scenario mentioned by Nick means that this C loophole remains open. Like I said earlier DH should equal 1B in DTBL position definitions.

I also don't see how that change is major but the rule at the start if ...

I like the rule. It's good to have guidelines. One change I would like is to have games played as DH be valued here as if they were played at 1B. Wasn't Edgar a DTBL 1B when he was a full-itme DH?

I would rather be able to throw Santana back and keep a different guy rather than delay the rule ...

That sounds fine. I guess I just feel that based on recent history (meaning Vmart) this rule change should have been announced last year to take effect in 2015. All year I thought Santana would stay at C one more year based on Vmart
