Thanks, Joel!

I feel like Beni/Dahl are equally risky and exciting for their first full seasons

Paul Sporer

8:45

I can dig that. Gimme Coors over Fenway

Dago

8:45

Jake Lamb gone. Plan B?

anonymous

8:45

I smell a catcher platoon

Fishman

8:45

Catcher run. Way to kick it off.

Paul Sporer

8:45

We also suck at catcher

so we decided to get a beast

Jason Collette

8:45

We talked earlier about taking the power with Gattis because we can absorb the BA risk after our top 2 picks

cavebird

8:46

I know I am late to the party, but wow on the first round. I hope/assume this is a no roster moves league where high risk can bring high reward, otherwise, it is hard for me to see taking a guy with such a short track record over a SS-eligible Machado.

Jason Collette

8:46

We think Turner has 20 HR, 50 SB, 100 R, .300 avg potential this year. Machado can't hit enough homers to offset those steals

Paul Sporer

8:47

there goes Broxton

I think Turner is closer to the 13 HR he hit last year, but it didnt' change my outlook to take him first, just FYI

Joel H

8:47

Big fan of Russell. Most mocks I have done he has been snagged from me in the 6th round. L

Paul Sporer

8:47

I'm obsessed

Larry David

8:47

Dislike the Baez pick

Paul Sporer

8:47

I'm a little sketchy on him, too

Jason Collette

8:48

We couldn't wait any longer to get Paxton. If it's a reach, it's a reach but we both love him so much

Jeff

8:49

Todd Zola is a G.O.A.T., but why Realmuto over Grandal? AVG league vs OBP league perhaps?

Jason Collette

8:49

This is an average league

Gil Renard

8:49

Whoa Keon

Jason Collette

8:49

speed is precious...some teams are really slow right now

Jimbo

8:49

Where can I see the draft board

Randy

8:49

Was colome someone you were considering if Zola hadn't taken him?

Jason Collette

8:49

brockb03

8:49

Paxton over Fulmer?

TheTinDoor

8:50

Predict Marcel Ozuna coming up

Jason Collette

8:50

We talked about Paxton quite a bit on the planning show you can hear tomorrow. LOVE that defense behind him and the way he pitched in the 2nd half was awesome

Paul Sporer

8:50

Jason will answer the Paxton q... could see Ozuna going soon

Chicago Cardinal

8:50

Been tinkering with some game theory. In a redraft league would you nominate high single digit guys for $2 or $4 less than your values early? Either you get your value or someone overpays?

Jason Collette

8:50

yes, I prefer that method. Throw them out at 85% & don't waste time with the low dollar crap

Gil Renard

8:52

As a Sox fan on Benintendi who watched all of his games: much better real life player than fantasy. If he's in the 2 hole I see production similar to Turner except only 15ish SB. Maybe 20.

Paul Sporer

8:52

ya I think he'll be one of those solid-everywhere guys. Think Michael Brantley

Tommy B

8:52

Gomez this high?

Paul Sporer

8:52

we love him, but we weren't discussing him yet

Minty

8:53

Feels like a reach on Baez, but he's so much fun to watch
