This is coming up soon. Let's get the pre draft deals rolling. Also, waiver adds are not open during offseason, so @PhiSlammaJamma your recent add will be undone.
Looking forward to baseball season again! Think there will be more difficult keeper decisions this year than most.
Keepers: Slot A (indefinite) Jose Altuve - 9 Slot B (4 max) Corbin Burnes - 3 Slot C (4 max) Spencer Strider - 1 Slot D (3 max) Max Fried - 1 Slot E (3 max) Framber Valdez - 0 Slot F (2 max) Kodai Senga - 0 Slot G (2 max) Grayson Rodriquez - 0
Here is the keeper situation going into 2024. Remember that to be kept for this season, the player's number must be BELOW the keeper slot number. Everyone else on your team can be considered to have a number of zero. Rook* Slot A (indefinite) Alex Bregman - 7 Slot B (4 max) Pete Alonso - 4 Slot C (4 max) Gerrit Cole - 3 Slot D (3 max) Kyle Tucker - 3 Slot E (3 max) Wander Franco - 2 Slot F (2 max) Aaron Judge - 1 Slot G (2 max) Adley Rustchman - 1 chrisjent* Slot A (indefinite) Aaron Nola - 7 Slot B (4 max) Brandon Woodruff - 3 Slot C (4 max) Marcus Semien - 2 Slot D (3 max) Kevin Gausman - 2 Slot E (3 max) Robbie Ray - 2 Slot F (2 max) Zac Gallen - 1 Slot G (2 max) Corey Seager - 1 FLASH21* Slot A (indefinite) Max Scherzer - 6 Slot B (4 max) Rafael Devers - 4 Slot C (4 max) Carlos Rodon - 2 Slot D (3 max) Matt Olson - 2 Slot E (3 max) Shohei Ohtani - 2 Slot F (2 max) Oneil Cruz - 1 Slot G (2 max) Emmanuel Clase - 1 fadeaway* Slot A (indefinite) Francisco Lindor - 7 Slot B (4 max) Manny Machado - 4 Slot C (4 max) Ozzie Albies - 4 Slot D (3 max) Vladimir Guerrero Jr. - 3 Slot E (3 max) Bryce Harper - 3 Slot F (2 max) Corbin Carroll - 1 Slot G (2 max) Gunnar Henderson - 1 BleedCubbieBlue* Slot A (indefinite) Juan Soto - 5 Slot B (4 max) Luis Castillo - 4 Slot C (4 max) Ryan Pressly - 2 Slot D (3 max) Freddy Peralta - 2 Slot E (3 max) Austin Riley - 1 Slot F (2 max) Devin Williams - 1 Slot G (2 max) Michael Harris - 1 RedNation* Slot A (indefinite) Ronald Acuna Jr - 5 Slot B (4 max) Fernando Tatis Jr - 4 Slot C (4 max) Freddie Freeman - 4 Slot D (3 max) Trea Turner - 3 Slot E (3 max) Shane Bieber - 2 Slot F (2 max) Mookie Betts - 2 Slot G (2 max) Bobby Witt Jr. - 1 SamCassell* Slot A (indefinite) Jose Ramirez - 6 Slot B (4 max) Nolan Arenado - 4 Slot C (4 max) Yordan Alvarez - 3 Slot D (3 max) Mike Trout - 2 Slot E (3 max) Sandy Alcantara - 1 Slot F (2 max) Dylan Cease - 1 Slot G (2 max) Julio Rodriguez - 1 PhiSlammaJamma* Slot A (indefinite) Jose Altuve - 9 Slot B (4 max) Corbin Burnes - 3 Slot C (4 max) Bo Bichette - 3 Slot D (3 max) Carlos Correa - 2 Slot E (3 max) Spencer Strider - 1 Slot F (2 max) Max Fried - 1 Slot G (2 max) Paul Goldschmidt - 1
I am interested in trading Bryce Harper or Gunnar Henderson, or both, for the best offer. Likely a draft pick upgrade, or else for someone ranked higher (if a combo deal).
I’m back - man looking at keepers for everyone this year, gonna have to be some trades, including myself…
Slot A (indefinite) Ronald Acuna Jr - 5 Slot B (4 max) Mookie Betts - 2 Slot C (4 max) Bobby Witt Jr. - 1 Slot D (3 max) Jose Ramirez - 0 Slot E (3 max) Zack Wheeler - 0 Slot F (2 max) George Kirby - 0 Slot G (2 max) Manny Machado- 0
Here is my keepers, though I may make a few changes right before: Rook Slot A (indefinite) Pete Alonso - 4 Slot B (4 max) Kyle Tucker - 3 Slot C (4 max) Gerrit Cole - 3 Slot D (3 max) Aaron Judge - 1 Slot E (3 max) Adley Rustchman - 1 Slot F (2 max) Bo Bichette - 0 Slot G (2 max) Tyler Glasnow - 0
PhiSlammaJamma: Slot A (indefinite) Jose Altuve - 9 Slot B (4 max) Corbin Burnes - 3 Slot C (4 max) Spencer Strider - 1 Slot D (3 max) Max Fried - 1 Slot E (3 max) Framber Valdez - 0 Slot F (2 max) Alex Bregman - 0 Slot G (2 max) Grayson Rodriquez - 0
Subject to last minute changes, here's my keepers list. Slot A (indefinite) Yordan Alvarez - 3 Slot B (4 max) Mike Trout - 2 Slot C (4 max) Julio Rodriguez - 1 Slot D (3 max) Fernando Tatis - 0 Slot E (3 max) Devin Williams - 0 Slot F (2 max) Edwin Diaz - 0 Slot G (2 max) Evan Carter - 0 We should get the draft sometime next week, right? Need @fadeaway to set draft order. And need fade, @chrisjent, @FLASH21, and @Ray Martinez to set keepers still.
Yeah we should get it going soon. I will generate picks 1-4 when I get a chance. Still would like to have the others check in with a post at least.
Slot A (indefinite) Shohei Ohtani - 2 Slot B (4 max) Matt Olson - 2 Slot C (4 max) Oneil Cruz - 1 Slot D (3 max) Emmanuel Clase - 1 Slot E (3 max) Francisco Lindor - 0 Slot F (2 max) Logan Gilbert - 0 Slot G (2 max) Randy Arozarena - 0 PSJ gets picks 8 & 10 from Flash Flash gets picks 12 & 13 from PSJ
Here is what the draft order will be for 2024. As with last year, the top four picks were randomized with weightings based on last year total points. The draft generator with the lottery balls does not allow for sending results to e-mail or else I would have done that. The playoff teams comprise the bottom four picks based on reverse order total points with champion always picking last. But anyway, here is how it worked out: 1. Jent's Llamas 2. The Aliens 3. Phi Slamma Jamma 4. Bleed Cubbieblue 5. Sucka Free 6. Expos Forever 7. Rook 8. Red Nation
Here are my keepers for now: Slot A (indefinite) Ozzie Albies - 4 Slot B (4 max) Vladimir Guerrero - 3 Slot C (4 max) Corbin Carroll - 1 Slot D (3 max) Gunnar Henderson - 1 Slot E (3 max) Rafael Devers - 0 Slot F (2 max) Trea Turner - 0 Slot G (2 max) Jackson Holliday - 0 If anyone wants to trade for Bryce Harper, he is available for a draft pick upgrade to the highest bidder. He's pretty good, lol.
Slot A (indefinite) Ozzie Albies - 4 Slot B (4 max) Vladimir Guerrero - 3 Slot C (4 max) Corbin Carroll - 1 Slot D (3 max) Gunnar Henderson - 1 Slot E (3 max) Rafael Devers - 0 Slot F (2 max) Trea Turner - 0 Slot G (2 max) Jackson Holliday - 0 Expos Forever gets Red Nation's 1st round pick Red Nation gets Expos Forever's 4th round pick
Slot A (indefinite) Ronald Acuna Jr - 5 Slot B (4 max) Mookie Betts - 2 Slot C (4 max) Bobby Witt Jr. - 1 Slot D (3 max) Jose Ramirez - 0 Slot E (3 max) Zack Wheeler - 0 Slot F (2 max) George Kirby - 0 Slot G (2 max) Bryce Harper- 0
chrisjent is going to be out of the country until Mar.13, so I guess we will start the draft then. That gives 15 days to finish before opening day which is probably doable for a slow draft if everyone makes an effort to check in regularly and sends player lists if they are going to be away for extended periods. Will most likely have to implement a timer after the first couple of rounds to ensure it works. Or, we can do a fast live draft on a particular day if we can find a date/time that works for everyone.
