OOTP 22 Ep 7: Dodgers Challenge: We trade Tony Gonsolin, Max Muncy, AJ Pollack and more.
4We reach the lottery ticket phase in our trades. The prospects we're getting back are no sure things, but we're stacking the talent in our offers to acquire some of the highest ceilings in the minor leagues.
In this play-through series we have traded all players on the Dodgers’ active roster prior to the start of the 2021 season. Every. Single. One.
We’re only allowed to acquire players with fewer than 81 games played in the Major Leagues.
Why are we doing this? Well, first, don’t we all have a little Dodgers fatigue at this point?
It’s been the same for the last decade — construct great roster, suffer through shaky playoff performances, lose, rinse and repeat, excluding last year’s Covid Championship. Let’s see if we can do better. And if we fail, we ruin the Dodgers. It’s a win-win.
It’ll also be great to see how the dispersion of the high-end talent from our active roster will impact the Major League landscape for years to come…
Also, if you’re like me, you love more than one sport. So listen to "Football: A Podcast."
It’s a podcast that my friends and I produce. We’re a dozen episodes in and we've received encouraging feedback. We'll be discussing Fantasy Football and our team-by-team deep dives until the start of the season.
This is not cookie-cutter analysis.
