Back to Valimaki. Love that it doesn't sound like there is a huge amount of rust...and most nhlers have also only played a handful of games in the last year...so getting an early start may allow him to make up his lost 6 months vs the field. Also love that he is expansion draft exempt.

actually he is in the same league.... but agree he still needs to develop better instincts but that only comes from playing
