somebody put down 20 bucks for Gorman
That was me. Is he worth it, probably not but I'll end the year with waiver money left so.....
Spending like that you won't.
Just kidding. You wanted him. You got him.
I have often overpaid for a Cardinal as the thought some other jaboney might get him in a league was unpalatable to me. Rarely served me well but in view of no money on the line one must get their kicks wherever they can.
I saw Walker went for 13 bucks the other day.
I thought of putting a cheaper claim on Gorman. But I have Cole Young at 2B, I don't really know what he is but he's doing well. Gorman or Cole Young, seems like either are good choices right now.
Anyways, I'm gonna have to make decisions when I get Lodolo, Chourio off the IL and whenever the Pirates call up Konnor Griffin (what are they waiting for!!!!). So I'll probably have to end up dropping someone. This is a tough league right now because it seems like there are so many good players or enticing players off to good starts. It's hard to tell where to turn right now.

Agree
Personally, I would like to see a bigger bench. Like maybe 10 spots. Lol

31 round draft next year
The draft is one thing. Either way, between IL spots and NA players you are bound to have 2 or 3 extra roster spots to cover before opening day. It's an interesting challenge, you almost have to plan for who you want after the draft to have a roster full of weapons.

One thing that might be considered is not allowing anyone to pickup IL or NA players until season starts. This year several good ones were taken while some of us were waiting for teams to make a decision - example Edman, everyone knew he was going on IL but I could do nothing. We all draft the same day, so seems like the IL/NA spots should all open on the same day.

No doubt I'll probably regret it but I needed to move Tyler "One hit for the Year) Stephenson out of the active roster. If I'm lucky Gorman will go on a one week hot streak and help me in power but kill my BA

That is the drawback to drafting too far ahead of the season. Rosters and IL's haven't been decided yet.
