Dan I took a flyer on Jon Gray if I did my math correctly 2 road starts week 5 at SD and at SF. I got Ben Paulsen, Pedro Alvarez looks lost I can't afford the BA hit.

Sadly as a Pirate fan the Cubs look like an absolute juggernaut. Just thinking out loud here I could see McCutchen getting moved about a year before his contract expires. I think they like Austin Meadows. Damn Cubs are ruining my plans of seeing the Pirates in a World Series. I'll be rooting for the...

Another one cropped up LaMehiu out with a groin strain which even if he plays Tues and Wed big if on Tues they have an off day Thursday. I have Javier Baez on bench Cubs have 4 games so I'm starting Baez betting he gets 2 starts and maybe Pinch hitting duty. Cubs get 2 lefties in there so I'm hoping...

I have Miller and Betances on my main event team lineup decision I'm making. Combined they have 11 innings pitched and 27 K's. I was thinking of replacing one with a 2 start pitcher in hopes of grabbing a win or 2. I decided to pass on the temptation my choice for 2 starts is Peavy at home take the ...

Adam Wainwright turn out the lights. I bought into his arm wasn't affected.

I drafted Reynolds late in a main event as a lottery ticket. I don't know the Rockies organization like Dan does but could the Rockies look to move Reynolds at the trade deadline for a team looking for a RH power bat coming off the bench. If so he would need to play. If your Reynolds what better pla...

Charlie Backmon turf toe is no joke.

Bklyn mets the AAA field here in Vegas is a glorified softball field. I'm trying to remember an offensive player that I've seen that I felt had cant miss and I can't name one in the 3 years the team has been here. Conforto doesn't count he skipped AAA. Nothing like taking BP in a 115 heat to bring o...

As to my comparison other than Harvey I've seen all these pitchers dozens of times at AAA. They have all been hurt at the AAA level the AAA field is an absolute travesty for training and rehab. I'm guessing your a Mets fan so am I. Syndegaard was shut down several times for forearm. Matz injuries we...

Who remembers Pulsipher Isrenghausen and Wilson.

Hi Dan

It seems home runs are flying out of parks even though batting averages are down. The summer could be interesting. Also is it my imagination or our some of the supposed aces being pounded? Good luck this year.

Will the 3-25 4PM Las Vegas OC plus league have the draft positions posted today

Providence as a dark horse. Maryland is 25/1 might make a good play. Wisconsin and Pittsburgh i know you guys will be rooting for Wisconsin. My nephew is s walk on for Pitt he went with Dixon he wants to coach at some point. Are there any high ADP pitchers your leery of. I have two Syndegaard his in...

Wanted to bump this up hoping there is more interest in the live Las Vegas events as the draft dates get closer.

I noticed that some of the Las Vegas online plus events don't have many sign ups. With only 3-4 weeks left to fill what happens if these don't draw enough interest. I have some flexibility but even some of those times look sparsely attended. I'm currently signed up for the Friday April 1st 10 AM $75...

Dan you know what would be fun would be a Mayberry team from the last 30 years. Mark Grace would have to be on my team.

Joe

Tom Verducci recently posted his list of pitchers who are at risk for injury. He listed 5 pitchers Syndergaard, McCullers, Severino, Carlos Martinez and Tyler Duffy. Syndergaard from this list would give me the most pause. In AAA he missed some time with a forearm strain. March and April seem to be ...

Hi Greg

I enjoy reading the history on your contests. Looking forward to my second year so glad that everything worked out for Las Vegas events. I'm still learning my way around your site I'm not sure if this the correct forum I can't seem to locate ADP section on the site where should I look?

Dan what are your thoughts on Pirates this year. Expectations are soft this year. They have a lot of youngsters bubbling up, if Glasnow the real deal he's up early. Thoughts on Polanco I think he is the most important Pirate this year. Reminds me of Heyward.

Tickets on sale to public on Tuesday February 16th.

Greg my condolences your family is in my prayers.

They told me to call around February 1st and they should have information on when tickets go on sale to the public. You should be able to buy them online or from the customer service number I posted. The 5...

Games are scheduled for March 31st and April 1st. No game times yet if my memory serves me both are ty...
