Happens that i get him, and after a day of thinking i have decided to cut Ratliff to make him room, only because i have a logjam at 1B/DH and he really can't play in the OF He's one of best 11 pot i've ever seen (and when i picked him if was a 12), i think he can be a DH/1B for any team. Painful cut, really painful.

Not surprising he was quite shiny on waivers. While I am not losing sleep over clearing 5 spots from 50 for the flip, having 5 claims whiff (6 or less claims on each down to a 2) yesterday hurts. Instead of giving Pags a chance to at least try to play in off lineups, his decline to 15 range was the main factor. Sioux City and one other team were apparently willing to pay him 4.5M. His decline at 31 (along with Mares) I feel are the biggest factors in demoting. Hard to let the guys who helped you get to league championships go. Nunez had been declining since 31 and by now his SI lost was severe at 11. He was among my best pitchers last season, though I have to say his whole career was below what I hoped. Unlike Pags he was cheap for Plantation to sign. Lockhart was an old guy who's development was fine, but lost a speed at only 29. Lost a decent base stealer. Now with Yuma. Donnelly I cut at the conclusion of last season. Right handed OF have a hard time getting my love anyway, and I feel like he's had 1000 AB so he is who he is. Sure he might have a good season here or there but I feel like it would be an outlier. He went to RCR. So, outliers, its like the 2nd player I drafted in my first full draft (2051), Coronado, which is also the only the time the pitcher pool early got me something decent...8 seasons in the bigs, tried him as a SP, mediocre to bad, SET since 2058, 2 of the 6 seasons he was good. 30 and not declined as of yet, so SIXTY TWO CLAIMS!!!! With the release of Shanks last season, I pretty much have no base stealing at all. Youth movement underway, if you can call a lot of 25-27 years olds "youth" Updated Wednesday, April 3 2024 @ 6:38:20 pm PDT

Not enough fielding to play 1B, not enough range to play OF and too many fielding points wasted to play DH. I'll play him in RF for this season, he should overcome with his bat his lack of Range. Could move him to 1B in the future though

Right now its looking like a 22 year old guy I picked up last season against 30 claims. I always feel a little anxious to let go of a big claimer (even if they are only a mediocre player).
