Just reading about that injury makes my knees hurt. Looks like it’s more common in the NBA—don’t jump and down if you can help it—and can be hard to fully come back from.

Bad for the sport : New York Mets closer Edwin Díaz tore the patellar tendon in his right knee during the celebration after Puerto Rico’s WBC victory against the Dominican Republic. He will need surgery and is expected to miss the season.

Edwin Diaz injured celebrating with his team after the win. Had to be pushed off the field in a wheelchair. Feared its an acl injury. Great way to start the season losing my best RP.

I was watching the Nats game yesterday (because the Mets broadcast can make even a crappy spring training game enjoyable) and it just didn’t seem possible that Cavalli’s final pitch—a change-up—would be the last straw for his elbow. I hope it wasn’t though it seems like everyone needs TJS at some point.

I made a mistake when formulating a counter offer on that trade with Hitch. We've already talked about it and both agree to cancel the trade.

Does the draft room not even open until the bottom of the hour?

My daughter just slipped the chain on her bike. Gotta run out and get her. Prob. will make it back just in time, but could be late.

Don't forget that the draft is today at 4:30 Pacific.

LOL. Humble Pie, that reads like a Fangraphs article.

im fairly sure you will toggle and right the ship and be top 4 in both of those leagues

I’ve been doing this so long I’ve forgotten anything I knew and I’m basically a rookie
-
- don’t invite a female companion to join you on draft night who’s waiting for you to finish already
- don’t forget that old JD is U only and makes him your FIFTH 1/3/U guy so you can never actually use him and now you have to trade Matt Olson
-
Well I’m 0-2 for successful auctions thus far. This one is my next one. I’ll be looking to break the losing streak by learning from my mistakes thus far:
- don’t throw “positions” or “needs” out the window and just get value, even if it means having the best 2 catchers in the game or 6 startable MIFers
- don’t get pissed at a really tardy drafter and determine to +1 them all night
- don’t accidentally +1 a RP over and over on my phone while rushing to the toilet

Zips is out too today

Probably the most pathetic franchise for spending money as well as drafting/player development

Just heard a stat that the Rockies for the first time in their existence , were under .400 slugging as a team in 2022

I am available if anyone needs me to draft for them.in another league
-
Wow. I got the sweet 3 - 3. Maybe I'll watch now.

I'd buy a square. I otherwise have zero interest. I'm not sure why.

I'm interested. OK with whatever you can get away with charging. :)

I’m putting together Super Bowl squares so I have a reason to watch the game. If you’re interested let me know how much you want to wager and I’ll figure out the per square cost once I see how much interest there is.

I have a feeling Jose Abreu has a 6.0 season left him this year for Astros

Hmm. I didn’t make that change to my trading block (at least not intentionally). But I wouldn’t actually mind Vaughn as long as he comes with a loan.

Royce Lewis has been rostered here since 2017

Prospects are huge currency here ,however , until they lose their luster and become post hype.
-
Even the prospects people are saying it's not a great year for prospects. And the ones that graduated last year haven't been all that great.

I’m happier with a cheap Glasnow and a market-rate Varsho than the many correspondents who provided me with unsolicited comments on that trade; White (cut), Veen (surprisingly not cut—I imagine Kevin is dreaming of power like that in Coors but has forgotten the nightmare of Rockies management that will ensure it never happens), and a keepable Robert seems like a poor return for Betts alone but he had to throw in Hader and Snell too?

You ended up getting Glasgow and Varsho for Betts which you kept. I ended up trading Robert, Veen, and Mitch White for Hader, Snell and Betts
-
Yeah, that trade was fine (though the AI allegedly running this team told me to cut Busch, but humans intervened. Meddling ownership). I don’t think I’d have kept Freddie at that salary (and these new Dodgers), but I don’t want to be rebuilding 2 years in a row. I was thinking more of the enormous disrespect afforded Mookie Betts last year.

You got Olson and Busch from me and very keepable contracts. I got Freeman who is high contract and Doval who I couldn't offord to keep . I imagine , like me, you would have kept Freeman too

(Part of the reason I think the offers see med terrible: this just seems like a lousy collection of “top prospects”. I’ve been spoiled I guess.)

I haven’t forgotten—I tried it last year. The offers were awful. I was trying to tank and couldn’t even finish in the bottom half of the standings. But maybe it was a weird year, and probably I was just bad at it. I’m not too happy about how I’m going into this year.

Pat, you may or may not have forgotten that last year, with up to five contenders well into the season and three until the end, impact pieces were bringing huge hauls. Taco and Kevin got most of my best young up now or soon to be up cheap talent. Seems better way to go is to carry high contracts and trade post draft. Of course that didn't work in Capped because one team ran away with it.

My wife is taking me to the Kohler Water Spa in Kohler, Wisconsin for a few days.

Back to Keith Law...big wow that Jackson Chourio is ranked #3 and was unranked last year . sort of an indictment of these " experts " on trying to predict a randomness

re our keepers…looks like I zagged while many of you zigged (Capped, too). Probably not the best strategy for someone who thinks the auction is the worst way to build a team. I may not spend my $$ efficiently but I am looking forward to the last hour or so of the auction when I outbid Fred for everyone $1 guy he nominated.

I'd like to get some of you on my home turf in central Illinois at the strip pits for a fishing derby . 7# large mouth and 2 # slab crappie. I like to tell people I majored in fishing , as I think I spent more hours at that than in classroom.
