I’m waiting on a JAM starter (Gallardo $32 OPT) and a CLUTCH outfield bat with B+ range and a -3 arm (Cespedes $33 OPT).
Would change draft day considerably for me if all of a sudden I had $65 more to spend. Gallardo’s card not worth $32, but with the jam it’d be my third for the rotation which has never happened in my franchise before. Cespedes still takes a dump versus lefties but makes up for it in the field.
Never forget.

Not that it really mattered but M. Leak signed… he was my 1 worry.
Harren retired, so I lost a JAM there.
I had a few guys sign minor league deals which should work out for me… McKinney, Abad, Mujica… saves me some cash. Plus I believe Felix and Negron are free agents and I’d be better off without them signing.

Heyward signing was big for me, he was my biggest free agent that I wanted to sign. I’m not really waiting for any other free agents either way. Rollins I believe is a free agent so if he doesn’t sign that’d save me a buck, ditto Steve Tolleson.

Just read an article about Buerhle in the STL Post-Dispatch today (he’s from St. Louis). He said he won’t pitch at least to start 2016 but won’t retire. I think he’s hoping the Cards will give him a ring, but I’d say it doesn’t look likely…unless the injury bug bites again. Me, waiting on Justin Upton. Wouldn’t be a big deal to take the $28 he’d free up back into the draft, but the draft is not that deep with great bats.

Aaron, looks like your wait for Upton is over.

One less guy to worry about. Cespedes just signed 3 year deal with Mets.

Yes, spends a little over 10% of my salary. Too bad he doesn’t hit lefties. Still for my purposes I’ll be scooping up that option. With Jones and Pence (until he gets hurt) I’ll have -6 arms in my starting OF with another -1 with A range in late game replacement and overpaid Sam Fuld.

Woodbury hoping that David Lough and Tommy Hunter do not sign before February 1st. Neither on a huge contract, Lough $7 3/3 and Hunter $3 3/3, but $10 freed up is better than $4 so I guess I will keep my eyes open for the next week or so.
