I doubt he's available in very many leagues. Certainly no Main Event leagues.

Wow, that is surprising!! Given you're already leading the main event this could be the icing on the cake!!!

To think he could've been had for a dollar last week is even more surprising.

It will be interesting to see what it takes to get him this week in that league.

Joe,

He wasn't available as he was not drafted. Unfortunately as much as I would love the icing on the cake I only have $200 left so something tells me he will be someone else's icing!!! :D :D

Definitely. Tough to go all in being in second overall with so much season left.

Kemp, Crawford, Ethier, Puig.

How much of Ethier's contract will the Dodgers be willing to eat to clear up AB for Puig?
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

most of it if they go on a tear and Puig plays well over the next few weeks. The dodger fans were going crazy last night and you could see the players were feeding off it... sort of like Fernando Mania of yester year.

I should've known that. I don't think he'll be available in very many leagues. I just looked and he's available in our 12 team Super. I can't believe he got past that group last weekend.

In most leagues that he is available (he is available in all of my 12 team leagues) he wasn't drafted and just became available on Monday when he got called up.

He was NOT available last weekend (well unless drafted and dropped which seems unlikely)

PUIG-MANIA!!!

His ADP after March 1st was 341 and he was drafted and held in most every NFBC Main Event league. He was picked up in just one NFBC Main last week for $133. However, he's owned in only 52.6% of all NFBC leagues, which means that he will be one HOT FAAB pickup in 12-team leagues this week.

Let the bidding begin.

He has hit the cycle of HRs, hitting a solo shot, 2 run shot, 3 run HR, and grand slam. Today he needs an inside the park HR and he will be a legend. ;)

Reminds me a little of Frank Thomas, but more athletic. Lets hope he doesnt turn out like the only other player to hit 4 HRs in his first 5 games, Mike Jacobs.

Interesting that the guy he is working with closely over the past 4 months has been Mark McGuire.
