@Scott Evans, Thanks for the reply. I was hoping one of the three 3B could fall to me in the first round (Wright, Sandoval, Beltre) but none did so feel confident Young has some good years left in him. Decided with him. Definitely risk in Utley, but like him better than Cuddyer who was other top option. Jeter just kept sitting there and sitting there (I was actually eyeing Alexei because I could have used some stability but Dee Gordon, Alexei, and Hardy all went well ahead of Jeter. It was either Jeter or just waiting it out a few more rounds and trying to risk it with someone like Cozart.

@kR Express, Rough last two… I guess I’d go with Pence & Waino, although I don’t expect the latter to truly return to form until after the all star break.

@Fenst, I see some risk packed into the infield with aging guys like Utley, Young & Jeter. However, those three should help with OBP. I like the outfield. Starting pitching seems stacked… Good squad.

@ML, Indeed. I have him labeled clearly as “LHP” too. Dunno what I was thinking there…

Banuelos is the best of a handful of righthanded starters who’re on the verge of breaking through.

He’s a lefty

@Mr Baseball, This question is better suited for Grey, so I’d try to repost it under one of his posts. From my perspective, though, Shelby Miller is the big kicker here. He has legitimate fantasy ace potential. If patience is a problem, obviously Pomeranz is more of a help-now guy, but Miller’s ceiling is quite a bit higher.

@thorbs, let’s see how he performs in his first year of full-season ball. Too far out at this point…

@infernoscurse, I was on the fence regarding Murphy for an HM, went with Heathcott instead because he’s got the tools to move through the system more quickly. Williams hasn’t played full-season ball yet. He’s at least three years away.

Was also expecting some coverage of Williams…think he could put up tremendous numbers in a few years if he’s already showing good pitch recognition, decent D and plus plus wheels

Looks like the Yankee’s prospects suck – so Hal wants to cut the payroll next year and add some of these gem minor league prospects for your watching pleasure while you enjoy one of his $8.00 hot dogs at the staduim

Dr. Van Nostrand Hindenburg Disaster

Lucas Duda
Mat Latos
Drew Pomeranz

[ View Trade ] – my players below

Brandon Belt
Jordan Zimmermann
Shelby Miller

Comments from Dr. Van Nostrand:

Pomeranz is expected to start the season as Colorado’s number three starter and has been dominant this spring. Miller is also a good prospect but has no chance of starting the season with the Cards. He’s likely a year away from having a major impact while Pomeranz can help you now. Additionally, Latos is the best, most valuable player in the

this is how I read it Gray -

I like

Belt over Duda
Zimm over Latos
third part – who cares

just checking how you read this trade
