ramssuperbowl99 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Template here for the lazy: AL EAST;ORIOLES- BLUE JAYS- RED SOX- YANKEES- RAYS- AL CENTRAL;INDIANS- TWINS- ROYALS- WHITE SOX- TIGERS- AL WEST;ASTROS- RANGERS- MARINERS- ANGELS-A'S- NL EAST;BRAVES- METS- MARLINS- PHILLIES- NATIONALS- NL CENTRAL;REDS- PIRATES- CARDINALS- CUBS- BREWERS- Christian Yelich NL WEST;DIAMONDBACKS- DODGERS- GIANTS- PADRES- ROCKIES- Now my personal picks: AL EAST;ORIOLES- Jose Iglesias - Let's be real, the O's are terrible but Iglesias at SS is a monster. His defensive highlights are fun to watch.BLUE JAYS- Vlad Guerriro Jr. - This one's a layup.RED SOX- Nathan Eovaldi - Great comeback story and he throws 102. What's not to love.YANKEES- Gerrit Cole - Filthy pitchers are going to be a theme here.RAYS- The entire pitching staff - So what I'm cheating. I can't not pick Blake Snell. I also can't not pick a guy who throws a real life screwball in Brent Honewell. Also they have a mini-Ohtani in McKay. AL CENTRAL;INDIANS- Mike Clevinger - A former nobody (who was almost a Brewer tbh whoops) who added a butt ton of velocity and is legit filthy. TWINS- Rich Hill - Left handed? Check. Uncle charlie. Yup. Underdog story after all his injuries? Check check check. Love watching this guy make batters look like idiots. Buxton on the basepaths is an honorable mention, and also Josh Donaldson hits dingers.ROYALS- Brett Phillips - The only correct answer with that big dumb laugh of his. HM to Danny Duffy for being underrated in fantasy baseball for like 7 years running, and for Jorge Lopez because former Brewer.WHITE SOX- Yasmani Grandal - Miss you Yaz <3TIGERS- Daniel Norris - He lives in a van down by the river, is left handed, and throws an ugly uncle charlie. HM to Jonathan Schoop for banishing Madison Bumgarner to the shadow realm as a Brewer. AL WEST;ASTROS- Zack Greinke - Was huge as a Brewer, and is still consistently hilarious even though he plays for the devil now.RANGERS- Corey Kluber - Fits the theme of filthy pitchers. Worth the price of admission for the slider alone.MARINERS- Dan Vogelbach - His bat flip stands as one of the great achievements in sports.ANGELS- Shohei Ohtani - It's weird to not pick Trout, but as amazing as he is to watch Ohtani is just an alien.A'S- AJ Puk - No I'm not mad. I'm super happy with Corey Ray. Why would I want a 6'7" left hander who throws gas. I definitely want Corey Ray instead. NL EAST;BRAVES- Sean Newcomb - There's a theme here. HM to Acuna for just being a monster.METS- Jacob DeGrom - Again, there's a theme here.MARLINS- Lewis Brinson/Isan Diaz/Monte Harrison/Jordan Yamamoto - Thank you all for your service.PHILLIES- Bryce Harper - The only correct answer.NATIONALS- Max Scherzer/Stephen Strasburg - These's a theme here. Stephen was the first prospect I saw who was transcendent. Max is a crazy person on the mound and it's amazing. Also, filth. NL CENTRAL;REDS- Scooter Gennett - I miss that little flea.PIRATES- Chris Archer - One of the most underrated starters in baseball. Filthy when he's on.CARDINALS- Dexter Fowler - He hates being a Cardinal and Cardinals fans hate him, so he wins by default. The other answer would be Alex Reyes.CUBS- Jeremy Jeffress - Love you JJ. Thanks for closing out the division for us.BREWERS- Christian Yelich - Do I have to explain this one? NL WEST;DIAMONDBACKS- It's a bunch of former Cardinals prospects and Madiosn Bumgarner. This team is gross tbh. Junior Guerra wins by default as a former Brewer.DODGERS- Clayton Kershaw - See the recurring theme.GIANTS- Evan Longoria - He's a shell of his former self, but that Rays Game 162 where he walked off the Yankees to put the Rays in the playoffs was bananas.PADRES- Tommy Pham - He's most famous for being both okay at baseball and hating the Cardinals. Other answers include Tatis Jr. and Drew Pomeranz.ROCKIES- German Marquez - We end with the recurring theme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mse326 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 AL EAST;ORIOLES- Chris Davis. If you are going to suck, suck spectacularlyBLUE JAYS- Vlad Jr. Not many guys who have HoF dads can say they might be betterRED SOX- Xander Bogaerts. Other young SS seem to get more publicity but he is a great playerYANKEES- Zack Britton. I appreciate that after the Orioles ruined him like every other SP prospect they touch he just got on with becoming one of the best RP in the leagueRAYS- Willy Adames. Remember when he was traded for Shields and everyone thought they didn't get enough. Then like the next year he was a top 15 prospect. Shows Rays scouting prowess and why they remain competetive with no payroll AL CENTRAL;INDIANS- Francisco Lindor. He is just specialTWINS- Jake Odorizzi. I'm as baffled by why he's my favorite as you are, but I've always liked himROYALS- Salvador Perez. Overrated? Yes. But I like a catcher that plays 150 games a yearWHITE SOX- Steve Cisek. Sidearmer who has been vastly underratedTIGERS- Cameron Maybin. Don't see many top prospects who so underperformed remain in the league so long as he has. Gritty AL WEST;ASTROS- Mike Fiers. Is this cheating? Do the Astros care if it is?RANGERS- Rougned Odor. He punched Bautista and that was funnyMARINERS- J.P Crawford. Never felt like the Phillies gave him a real chanceANGELS- Mike Trout. Because, duhA'S- Mike Fiers. He is a legend and must be mentioned again. Plus, that beard. NL EAST;BRAVES- Freddie FreemanMETS- Jake DeGromMARLINS- Legit can not tell you anyone on the team.PHILLIES- Aaron Nola. His stuff isn't as flashy as most aces, but he still produces like one.NATIONALS- Max Scherzer NL CENTRAL;REDS- Joey Votto. I love that he makes the dinosaurs so angry by knowing how to walkPIRATES- My god is that a poring group of playersCARDINALS- Andrew Miller. Became the template for showing ancient managers you best RP doesn't have to pitch the 9th or a single inning.CUBS- Javier Baez. He is just flat out fun to watchBREWERS- Josh Hader. NL WEST;DIAMONDBACKS- Archie Bradley?DODGERS- Clayton Kershaw. Best and nastiest pitcher of his generation.GIANTS- Brandon Crawford. Defensive wiz who somehow made himself decent offensivelyPADRES- Francisco Mejia. I hope he balls and the Indians FO feels stupidROCKIES- Jon Gray. Liked since he was drafted. Can't wait til he's out of Colorado and people will realize how good he is 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 @ramssuperbowl99 love how you left Yelich for the Brewers in your template. Anyways, here's mine. AL EAST;ORIOLES- Trey Mancini (that roster is dreadful)BLUE JAYS- Chase Anderson (I will never hate the ChACE)RED SOX- JD MartinezYANKEES- Gerrit ColeRAYS- Kevin Kiermaier AL CENTRAL;INDIANS- Shane BieberTWINS- Josh DonaldsonROYALS- Whit MerrifieldWHITE SOX- Edwin EncarnacionTIGERS- Miguel Cabrera (god what a pitiful roster) AL WEST;ASTROS- Zack GreinkeRANGERS- Joey GalloMARINERS- Kyle LewisANGELS- Mike TroutA'S- Khris Davis NL EAST;BRAVES- Ronald AcunaMETS- Pete AlonsoMARLINS- Jesus AguilarPHILLIES- Bryce HarperNATIONALS- Stephen Strasburg NL CENTRAL;REDS- Joey VottoPIRATES- Chris Archer (another dreadful roster)CARDINALS- Tommy Edman (gross)CUBS- Kris Bryant (yuck)BREWERS- Christian Yelich/Ryan Braun (don't make me choose) NL WEST;DIAMONDBACKS- Zac GallenDODGERS- Cody BellingerGIANTS- Brandon CrawfordPADRES- Fernando Tatis JrROCKIES- Brendan Rodgers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the guy that Braun threw under the bus can forgive him and move on, people that aren't involved should too. One act doesn't define someone. It was a mistake and Ryan did what he could to make amends and he's been a consummate professional since. Let it go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
