Here we can discuss and analyze the draft.
I think the steal of the round so far could be Aroldis Chapman at $500K if you are looking for a cheap holds/saves guy for the Athletics.
Looking at the price of SP so far, Frankie Montas at $6M might be another steal for the Diamondbacks.
I am surprised that Realmuto didn't reach $30M. Maybe with the new round intervals, managers are being conservative at the beginning.

50M for one player is just insane to me

If he is healthy, $25m for a top pitcher and $25m for a top hitter isn't bad. But It does set a new high for the league for sure haha

Yeah, I that is a key thing if heโs healthy. But you were willing to go to $46M lol

Shohei is a beast and I would have gone higher if I had the cash. Free agents are always risky but he is worth it in my opinion. May as well get the best!

You know what happens after you spend $50M a year on a big FA pick up correct ๐

I mean you might have to go through me... I'm feeling thrilled with my team... still debating on the Floro... He's going to be the Marlin's Closer. I think... Bard and Floro are the last closers there... I went after the Mets set up guys... or at least what it is slotted to be... Raley is a lefty and might get used to those situation but I didn't get him. But I think I might have to hold on for position players so your boy is over here fighting himself. Happy with the Merrill Kelly pick up... If I can get another 200 IP out of him I think that would be solid... the young talent is there... I think they are a better team then last year... I think it might actually bump guys up like Zac Gallen and Merrill Kelly... Bumgardner is losing his stuff but he still has this year and next year that he is signed by the D backs... Bumgardner had 15 losses and a 4.88 ERA... I don't even wanna look at that Whip. But the point I'm making is he will not maintain the #1 starter coming out of Spring Training... I don't care if he is making 23 Million this year. unless if it is in his contract which it might. That leaves room for Merrill Kelly and Zac Gallen to get bumped up in the order hopefully. They deserve to get more starts this season. and if not this year I will have him for the rest of his time with the Diamondbacks which makes a nice combo to me also owning Moreno I probably jumped the gun calling up Korey Lee... but w/e lol I'm having an offseason

I think scherzer at 20M was a good deal. If I wasn't against the cap I would've went higher. People devalue old people too much imo. 24 year olds are just as likely to get hurt as 37 year olds when it comes to pitchers

People devalue old people too much imo. 24 year olds are just as likely to get hurt as 37 year olds when it comes to pitchers Merrill Kelly - I think there are concerns about spending a lot of money on Kelly and I feel like managers will want to target other people... much like scherzer Kelly might become a steal Guys I told you... I'm 50/50... I think Kelly at 8.25 is a steal. especially when I add Bellatti to balance out his K/9... paying him 500k. 20 mil for scherzer... that is way higher then I expected... but I completely understand that ass well... He has one of the best fastball changeup combos and up there in the top 10 for best slider. and thats like over the last 3 years... this new age of athletes have all of the best modern medicine has to offer.

I like the Kelly signing a lot, especially with the shift ban. Scherzer was a good deal too

A year or so ago gerrit cole went for 35M, trevor bauer has a 20M contract, zach wheeler 35M, charlie morton 20M, strasberg 17M, degrom 42.5m (maybe real life and not auction) If you look at the comps in the league scherzer at 20M looks like a steal to me
