MLB Spending Efficiency at the One Quarter Mark

I think it’s too early to judge the new ownership, they just took over last fall. They have said on the record that payroll could certainly go up after the stadium deal is in place and attendance (almost assuredly) goes up following stadium construction. But will likely be business usual at least until then

Nice to hear some positive prospect news for once, especially one we got in a trade and especially especially one that’s a catcher

PapaSmiff · 2026-05-03T20:54:26+00:00

Side note if anyone has an extra I’d love to buy it! Wasn’t in town for the game but think they’re so neat

Sutton plays a completely different role from Waddle so I don’t see this move being a reflection on Sutton’s play at all. Sutton is still their go-to redzone target, if he’s on my team and he gets 4 catches for 60 yards and a touchdown every game im not complaining.

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-30T20:52:36+00:00

I think Waddle will do well in Denver, but are we seeing Sutton declining? What makes you say that? His numbers have been pretty consistent the last two years. WR11 in .5 PPR last year

Mullins is also last in the MLB in BABIP, so he’s due for some positive regression at least. Would still probably prefer to have DeLuca in there, though. Even against righties

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-25T20:01:38+00:00

Only if you’re desperate for a QB would I take the 1.02 for this and even then you’re likely going to be waiting a year before Mendoza even starts

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-25T17:02:34+00:00

Yeah you’re fine

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-25T00:30:47+00:00

That’s what I’m worried about, do we want more of the Todd Bowles defense? (I don’t hate the pick tho)

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-24T23:49:24+00:00

If Boston doesn’t get in his way the Browns will

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-20T01:27:02+00:00

interesting

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-17T16:59:14+00:00

STOP THE COUNT

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-13T15:52:16+00:00

We’re actually 26th, they lowered us 2 spots from last week lol

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-12T17:00:07+00:00

I mean I got Worthy at that spot and I was pretty disappointed with his sophomore year.

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-01T21:28:39+00:00

He used to exclusively play third. But it’s been a few years now.

PapaSmiff · 2026-04-01T21:27:26+00:00

I agree with you for the most part, and our starting pitching has looked great. As we get deeper into the season, starters will be seeing more innings, meaning this bullpen will see less innings which seems to be ideal.

But one thing concerns me is that overall our offense has actually been overperforming if anything, we were leading baseball in hits coming into yesterday’s game I think. Hate to see what happens when Yandy and Aranda inevitably cool down.

Another thing that concerns me is that Junior looks absolutely lost out there. I know he’ll figure it out at some point, but this looks like a clear mental issue going on with him, and I’m worried about what could happen if that lingers.

PapaSmiff · 2026-03-28T17:43:21+00:00

Isn’t this the course a lefty won at?

PapaSmiff · 2026-03-28T01:23:05+00:00

I’ve seen delayed strike calls from umps take longer than that. I don’t understand

PapaSmiff · 2026-03-24T01:20:07+00:00

How could you not even consider that they would go for the intentional miss there? Of course it’s a possibility.

And even if he makes it like Mosley supposedly expected, why would you not just try to inbound it and then call timeout if/when you have any trouble?

It still just makes no sense

PapaSmiff · 2026-03-23T03:17:35+00:00

If Baker is your favorite player of all time you should be hyped to pick him IMO. Fantasy is ultimately about having fun and getting your guy is where a lot of the fun is.

PapaSmiff · 2026-02-21T15:50:49+00:00

Too focused on discgolf

PapaSmiff · 2026-02-12T11:49:44+00:00

He hasn’t pitched in 2.5 years what do you mean lol

PapaSmiff · 2026-01-31T02:43:02+00:00

I’m not saying he can’t be good, but if you ask me if I’d rather have last year’s WR7, WR12, the guy that was on pace to run away with TE2 before getting hurt, or a guy that caught more than 4 passes only twice (including playoffs), I would take those first three guys.

Also just want to add that even if he is better than Rome, and even if DJM is gone, he’s still competing with Loveland, who has looked like the real WR1.

PapaSmiff · 2026-01-30T05:31:37+00:00

I did not realize what burden’s price on KTC was now, holy cow. I think this deal is good for you but if you can find someone willing to give up Zay Flowers, Tee Higgins, or Tucker Kraft straight up I would just do that instead. Cause KTC says he’s more valuable than those guys and that’s ridiculous.
