"GLORY DAYS" LEAGUE - 2019

I just noticed that one of the lottery picks had been traded to me, so it would not be appropriate for me to initiate the lottery today.

I would ask that another manager, who does not hold a lottery pick, go out to https://draftpicklottery.com/, run a straight 8-team draft, and publish the results here.

I’ve got something available for just about everyone as we look to shake things up a bit this off-season.

If you’re looking at ‘16 I’ve got Jonathan Lucroy available. He’s got a 6.20M salary (5th highest catching card in the set.) he’s also got a 1.95 M card in ‘17. I don’t need to trade him but I also have Realmuto so Lucroy could be expendable. But I’d need a good pick or similar value at another position.

I also have: Brandon Guyer 3.77M; Jung Ho Kang 3.54M .857 OPS; Danny Espinosa 1.32M SS-2e19; and Jaime Garcia 1.90M in ‘17, 1.79M in ‘17 available for this year.


If you’re looking at specific future years, I’ve got the following available:
Kendrick, Howie 6.62M in ‘19 (also useful in ‘17 & ‘18)
Ruf, Darin 4.00M in ‘20, 4.83M in ‘21
Bour, Justin 5.05M in ‘17 (+2.18M in ‘16 & 2.81M in ‘18)
Urshela, Gio 5.33M in ‘19, 5.41M in ‘20, 4.32M in ‘22
Ramirez, Erasmo 5.80M in ‘20 (+some other okay years)

And if you’re looking for solid long-term production, I’ve got
Soria, Joakim .5M in ‘16 but averages 3.27M as an RP between ‘17-‘20
Taylor, Michael Averages 2.30M per year over the next 7 years. Good defense and speed every year.

Some of these guys will get dropped if not traded, but If you have less than 21 keepers, it might make sense to try to add one of these guys now.
