I will definitely have my entry in on time this year. I do have one question. Are we allowed to include bench players in our lineup as a cost-saving measure? I double checked the rules but didn’t see this mentioned.
Will Frisch and JP Wheat have both been added to the ACL roster, but are listed as Injured-Full Season which is little disappointing. Brandon Birdsell is also on the roster, but has yet to make an appearance. Christopher Paciolla and Haydn McGeary have both made appearances though.
Ismael Mena is back in the lineup. Préciado is making a rehab appearance. Paciolla and McGeary are making their pro debuts as well. Fun night for the ACL team.
Looking at similarly ranked pitchers to Jackson Ferris, Dylan Lesko got $3.9M, Brock Porter got $3.7M, Brandon Barriera got $3.5M, and Robby Snelling got $3M. Hopefully the Cubs and Ferris can come to an agreement soon.
Muncy for Altuve is complete. However, there has to be 30 days between bench transactions. So please decide which transaction you'd like first... I’d like to drop Adley Rutschman and add Jeremy Pena as my bench transaction for now.
I’d like to make the following transactions: Drop 2B Max Muncy, add 2B Jose Altuve Drop Seiya Suzuki and Adley Rutschman from bench Add Taylor Ward and Jeremy Peña to the bench.
C Willson Contreras $75 1B Pete Alonso $150 2B Max Muncy $150 SS Bo Bichette $75 3B Manny Machado $75 LF Kyle Schwarber $100 CF George Springer $75 RF Juan Soto $75 DH Vlad Jr $200
