On The Run, Volume 1- Number 10
Free Agency! Well there isn't anything that is free or cheap. That is for certain. I expected to get a SP by now, nope. Not even close. I thought I might go after one of my HTD bats. I did get one, but assumed Belt and he's going to hit less than 20HR's would stay in my price range. I would up with a cheap Trumbo, in my opinion who turns to Baltimore. Three tremendous RP arms, of which only one I didn't intend to target. Waiting on week 3 to start. I'll be camping in Missouri, with my oldest son's future Boy Scout Troop. They'll be snow skiing, I'll be at the lodge, I'm dumb, but not stupid enough to get on skiis on my restructured knee that isn't 100% and I know it.
The number of waived players continues to shock me. The trades are continuing. Can I ask a question? How does Cody Sedlock make it to 10.16 in the MLD? HOW? He was drafted 16th overall in real draft and is a low mileage college arm. What a steal after some were done drafting. I continue to restock my farm system with power arms.
Another thing, I'm surprised that through two weeks, no players going to a silent auction. I contribute this to aggressive bidding and GM'S knowing what they want. It's kind of nice and gives you a little breather before the next round begins.
