Keeper League- April 18th- Traded Carl Crawford for him Re-draft League- April 15th- FA acquistion- Dropped Drew Pomeranz for him
CBS auction keeper league drafted him for $7. I will probably sign him on for 6 years at $9, $14, $19, $24, $29, and $34.
ESPN "keep 2" keeper league drafted him in the last round of the draft. Can keep him in that league for as long as I want.
Yahoo "keep 3" keeper league - dropped him and picked up Bryce Harper when Harper was called up hours before him. Figured I could pick him back up in a few days and then he is immediately called up and taken off waivers with the news.
Question Re:ESPN Keeper leagues. Do they just place those players on your teams pre-draft that you designate as Keepers? How do they handle it??
I've not been the commish in an ESPN so others may be able to better answer, but I think you can assign players to certain teams in designated draft rounds so for our draft I expect everyone's keepers to fill either rounds 1 & 2 or the last two rounds of the draft (it doesn't really make a difference which).
2-4 with another HR. Is there anything this guy can't do?
I have to laugh at the bottom of page when I look at "Similar Topics", especially the one where 3 people recommended to drop Trout on April 22nd only to have him called up 5 days later.
Is it really necessary to bump this thread and post his stat line every time he has a good game (which is pretty much every day)? We get it. The guy is a beast of epic proportions. We all look at the box scores, we all see what he's done, I just don't see the point. Bump it for a phenomenal game, sure. Or for an injury. Or if he starts slumping. But these random "3-5, 3 runs, RBI, SB, I have a huge erection for MIke Trout!!!" posts get really really old. End rant.

So what are the odds that we find out after the season he really isn't human.... 5-1 ? 3-1 ? I mean, it's possible he's a cyborg isn't it? It would make sense, right?
