Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
I did my lineup, and it says the best order has Chipper leadoff and Abreu 3rd (6.05 R/G or so). The lineup I put in was about 5.95 R/G. I'll do DipreG's now for fun, since we've discussed his order a lot.
I used players' numbers over the past three years.

Link me afterwards.
I'm too lazy to do it myself right now.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
Really like the Romero pick.
It's crazy how you're searching and searching for guys, and you totally forget about someone so good.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
O'Flaherty has toned down the walks this year, and his career splits show he's a very nice semi-LOOGY.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
Gutierrez is a solid pick for a defensively minded 4th OF.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
Defense, baby.
Guitierrez is rated as the 4th highest defensive OF by UZR/150 this season and will be a fantastic defensive replacement.
Currently sporting a 102 OPS+, he'll be a fantastic addition to my bench.

Fielding Bible ranked him the best defensive RF.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
I was gonna do the lineup thing but halfway through I realized I used wOBA instead of OBA, I'll post the results later this weekend.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
To me, Neshek is low risk/high reward. His motion is violent and could lead to arm problems. He's having Tommy John surgery right now. But he was durable in the Minors, and I expect him to come back strong next year. He's like a lesser known Rafael Soriano.

Neshek should be banned from pitching against RHH, he owns them so bad it's not even funny.

Re: Anti-Fantasy League Draft and Discussion Thread
Sorry I've been away for so long. Internet service wasn't hooked up at my new house until Friday, July 3. I'm currently doing work in the house, so I couldn't get away for any appreciable period of time to use a place with free WiFi.
To be honest, there's more work at the house than I anticipated. If somebody is interested in taking over my team, then they can have it. I'll be busy doing things in this house for the next 3-4 months. If nobody is interested, I'll try an keep up, but there will be lags in my participation.
Again, sorry.
