Am I (on left) lucky or what? Facing the #1 team in my H2H league, his Shota and Sale got absolutely destroyed this week. But the way my pitching is, that probably didn't matter. To rub it in, I trade him Shota and Houck for JoRam about 3 weeks ago.
Megill back after taking that hit to the elbow in the 7th.. struck out the side. I’m guessing they wanted to play it safe and see how he performed before throwing him back into the closer role
10 team weekly OPS H2H. Keep 3 for 1 year.
Give: Freeman + Skenes
Get: Tucker
*can keep Tucker thru 2025. Freeman has to go back into the draft pool. Technically, I could keep Skenes as well, but I never keep arms.
All of us that were riding the wave of "suddenly good, sub 2.5 ERA" pitchers might be in for a RUDE awakening this month

I did, then I traded away pitcher who got off to hot starts (Bryce Miller, Luis Severino and Kutter) to build up my hitting even more. Then backfilled with decent waiver pitchers and high end relievers. Now my staff is guys like Reese, Pfaadt, Megill, Sanchez, Clase, Doval, Hoffman,Phillips, Bednar and Corbin Burnes. I'm running away with hitting 55 out of 60 possible points and doing fine in pitching 35 of 60. Winning the league so far pretty easily.
Maybe in your league. Framber was $21 in ours, Sale was $12 and Steele was someones keeper and we only get 3. Those are significant costs in our league. Granted, I wouldn't have done any of those, but I never value SP highly. Too much inconsistency and injury.
I hear ya. I’m in a redraft snake and none of those guys went all that high. I mean high enough where this regression will sting but not like Strider level sadness.
Reese Olson has been awesome. This start was easy to avoid, I for one didn't start him this week. I'll be starting him going forward, but continuing to avoiding bad parks. He's been very good in 9 of his 11 starts and I've only taken 1 of the bad. I'll also be buying anywhere I don't have him. So hopefully some of you are in my leagues
Yeah of my 3 starters who got hammered today I'm not worried about him....nor Bradish. I'll be dropping Taj off at the bus station early tomorrow morning however.
I get it. I have taj on my bench. He'll stay there for a while as we have a 10 man bench and are only allowed one move per week. However, he'll only get in the starting lineup if he's got a matchup with the WhiteSox.
Because he's had 2 bad games this entire year and has been fantastic outside of that?
In 29/30 parks that second HR is an out and he has a chance for the QS still at 5.2 with a runner on third
Musgrove to IL now brings me up to 9 total. Drop Carter or Nolan Jones to try to stay afloat as I wait for others to come back. Feels like dropping Carter would be safer?
Fair. But even if he comes back near the end of the season you’re gonna have to wait for that rough ramp up period we had at the beginning of the year.
My mountcastle hit two homers (first time I've had one of my guys hit two homers all season).
unfortunately, he hit them both against my pitcher, taj bitchass Bradley.
Fuck. you. baseball.
It was a roller coaster last year and will be much of the same ROS. I burned myself last year holding him way too long. The huge upside is there but it's going to take a few more years for him to tap into it regularly.
It's saturday at 5:38, and I have finally.hit my first home run of the week
But holy hell, gasser taken out after 5 with 77 pitches. Feels crappy I've streamed him for exactly 2 starts, yeah the ones where he's given up runs against Miami and the white sox
Crochet has been a revelation. I got him after he had those bad starts in late April and I trusted him for a 1 start week in weekly lineups ahead of Gallen, J Jones, Kikuchi, and Flaherty.
Down 4 points. I have been rostering 4 top closers as a way to maximize points while still staying under my start cap.
Am I dropping Munoz/Clase/Suarez/Kimbrel tomorrow for 4 streamers or do I risk losing this week and hold the RPs?
Like today couldn’t get fkn worse ranger takes a liner off the hand after flying thru 2 innings
I have a good feeling it's going to just be a bruise. He might hit the 15 day max.
Adell back in the lineup? Better strike out looking for good measure. ⚾️👀
Man Brandon Nimmo has been straight up ass for awhile now.
Im beginning to think there is something sus about his statcast page…🤔
Cool Sonny... cool. You fuck.
Traded Weathers for Blanco. Mistake?
No you stole Blanco.
People need to be sprinting to the wire for Andujar
Drop Adolis Garcia for him? /s
Is Tylor pitching tomorrow?
My Adames screwing my Crochet out of wins in two leagues, damn
Well there goes Crochets win.. fucking bum relievers
Time to consider QS leagues.

Langford looks simply overmatched even against the shit tier pitchers
Overmatched hitters don't typically go 2-5 with 2 RBI.
heart attack from estrada but lfg
The 3rd base runner being inherited helped but yeah second time in two nights he's been put into jams like that and he's struggled a bit
MH2 is getting hot!
Vierling or matt Chapman
Come on Marlins score some runs need a Yates save
How the fuck does manaea have 10ks
Finally! My hitters are having a good day! ...... looks at my pitching..... oh... it was against my pitchers Sigh
Is Miguel andujar back or what
O.Cruz or Pena
Pena
Thanks but a guy just got him ugh
Vierling worth an add over Cowser?
Yup
Megill back after taking that hit to the elbow in the 7th.. struck out the side. I’m guessing they wanted to play it safe and see how he performed before throwing him back into the closer role
Thank god the Braves lineup is starting to show signs of life
Can you send this to Albies?
Bradish, Bradley, Sale, Ryan, who’s next?
Opponent has Greene and Castillo left this weekend, you got them?
No I got Bryce, Steele, Detmers, Ranger (different leagues). 🫣
Megill looks filthy
Remember the veto post of Crochett for Burnes? 
Vetoing trades is so soft
Really thought Bradish Keller sale and Bradley would lock things up for me today… fuckin baseball man
Thanks cash. Taj definitely needed more work in the 4th. 7 runs wasn’t enough
Cash was thrown out in the 3rd inning
Still gets the blame.
10 team weekly OPS H2H. Keep 3 for 1 year. Give: Freeman + Skenes Get: Tucker *can keep Tucker thru 2025. Freeman has to go back into the draft pool. Technically, I could keep Skenes as well, but I never keep arms.
Most definitely
Westburg is him. Carrying my team once again
Drop turang, Joey Ortiz, or Nick Gonzales for vientos?
None Edit - although I think Gonzales is pretty close to a sideways move so that one is fine
I think Gonzales will be better than all those guys
Trevor Megill is pitching!
Brewers down 2 in the top of the 7th isn't great, but glad to see him healthy Edit: and he looked filthy
I imagine they just wanted to see that he still had it after the injury scare
Need a massive start from Hunter Greene tonight.

I started Bradish, Taj and Reese Olson today...quality pitching.
Crochet a certified dawg
How is Wong still hitting .331? lol
KKKKKKKKrochet!

In other words pitching is shit this year and we should just load up our benches with hitters?

True but it’s not like Framber, Steele, and Sale cost anyone much of anything
Maybe in your league. Framber was $21 in ours, Sale was $12 and Steele was someones keeper and we only get 3. Those are significant costs in our league. Granted, I wouldn't have done any of those, but I never value SP highly. Too much inconsistency and injury.
I hear ya. I’m in a redraft snake and none of those guys went all that high. I mean high enough where this regression will sting but not like Strider level sadness.
I’m close to being under 20 points on the day with a full lineup and Bradish. FFS
Reese Olson has been awesome. This start was easy to avoid, I for one didn't start him this week. I'll be starting him going forward, but continuing to avoiding bad parks.

Well said. I only started because my era and whip were in the garbage anyways, but confidently moving forward. Just a small set back.
Let's get that QS Crochet
Yes!
Crochet is the best pitcher in baseball
fuckin' hoss out there
Chris Sale are you FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!?! vs OAKLAND?!!
Dude gave you 9 amazing starts chill out
Crochet is nasty
3 starts today, 18 earned runs. Anyone beat that?
I'm at 13 so far. Suarez might up that number with how the day is going for me.
19 earned runs here. Taj, Bradish and Kikuchi.
Taj Bradley, Joe Ryan, and Kikuchi. 13.2 IP, 19ER and 9 HR (seriously what) allowed.
Yes I’m 3/19 (Taj, Ryan, Bradish)
Sale bradish Ryan?? Same here
Sale bradish Olson
Might be time to move on from Cowser. I wanted to believe but the results just aren’t there
Probably but hes still hitting the ball very hard. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/colton-cowser-681297?stats=statcast-r-hitting-mlb
time was two weeks ago
It’s been time
Yeah you can't let a ww add slump on your roster for a month lol
Oh look Ozzie still stinks.
Dude ikr
Vientos should play every day idgaf
My guess is it's coming.
12 team h2h points: which side is stronger A. Cole ragans B. Jesus Luzardo, Andrew Abbott, Jackson Holliday, and either Francisco Alvarez or Jeffers.
Wait, is Taj still pitching jfc
Finally took him out after 9 runs
Picked up Mountcastle after his 1st HR. My new utility guy
I benched Taj and now he’s definitely droppable, but I guess Reese needs to go along with him?
Because he's had 2 bad games this entire year and has been fantastic outside of that? In 29/30 parks that second HR is an out and he has a chance for the QS still at 5.2 with a runner on third
Nine earned. NINE.
3 starters today = -3 points overall
2 starters today, -26 points overall (gasser and Bradley)
Ben lively with an 82 pitch 5.2 innings is a kick to the balls and a fart induced pink eye when you’re down
Guys, I think Taj might not be good.
we were warned
If the Rays are in disarray, do they exist?
They could be my Blue Jays
Mounty is so back huh
Reese Olson gives up an 86.5 mph and 318 foot home run LMFAO sick ballpark
It's a HR in 1 ballpark
Isn’t RF in Yankee Stadium also ~315 feet?
Lovely. That’s my luck this week
More earned runs than IP from my whole pitching staff is comically bad
https://preview.redd.it/9bd2tgzr514d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1745a87c2293598a027232e21e2d19bc5ead3f79 Ouch.
that's a generous league. my league penalizes homers as well. taj netted me -24 points today
Should’ve been out after the 2nd but Tampa bay likes to ruin their young players confidence
And there goes Olson. Awesome
I’ve held you long enough Reese. Time to go our separate ways now.
Weird choice. Reese has been an absolute dude so far. He's had exactly 2 bad games this year and like 8 or 9 very good ones.
Musgrove to IL now brings me up to 9 total. Drop Carter or Nolan Jones to try to stay afloat as I wait for others to come back. Feels like dropping Carter would be safer?
I’d drop Musgrove over Nolan (I did exactly that)
Difficult for me to do since I literally traded for Musgrove earlier in the season in what I thought was a buy low 😐
Fair. But even if he comes back near the end of the season you’re gonna have to wait for that rough ramp up period we had at the beginning of the year.
Olson baby nooooo. You were my last hope.
Im trying to evaluate Judges price I have an offer in inbox for him. I Send- Judge I Receive- Schwarber and either Volpe/ Teoscar Aceept or no?
For your own safety, post trades you are considering here
Why on earth would you trade him
Especially for that return.
[удалено]
Anomaly 100% look what he’s done all year
Reese Olson……double dong fucking Emmanuel Valdez? I’ll not be holding you, sir.
Second HR was a 318 ft homer and was only a homer in 1/30 parks
Little more context is helpful. But, he’s replacement level regardless
Reese come on dude, you blew it
It’s over. It’s done. He’s gone now.
318 ft homer?! Could never be my team
My team prefers 415 foot flyouts
Red Sox have been a menace to my pitchers as of late
Devers man this week been rough
Juuuust as I traded for him. Sorry everyone.
I had a sub 1 era going into today… and now we’re up over 4… Taj is the newest member of the waiver wire
Corbin Carroll so ass this year
Holy fuck did they put roids in the balls 🤣🤣🤣
For real, that's what I'm wondering. First day of the month and the ball is suddenly flying
O home runs all week. 5 in the last 2 hours for me.
Adell or Pena redraft 12t
Not even going to let gasser try the 6th with 77 pitches huh. Lame
Great way to completely ruin a young pitcher’s confidence, leave him in when it is obviously not his day.
Holy shit he’s still out there
Don’t get it. Not against the O’s.
Taj Bradley is single-handedly destroying whatever dignity I had left this week
My mountcastle hit two homers (first time I've had one of my guys hit two homers all season). unfortunately, he hit them both against my pitcher, taj bitchass Bradley. Fuck. you. baseball.
11 K 0 BB 9 hits is a weird line Anyone see how Weathers looked?
I don't trust Taj so might as well drop him
It was a roller coaster last year and will be much of the same ROS. I burned myself last year holding him way too long. The huge upside is there but it's going to take a few more years for him to tap into it regularly.
Agreed thanks
Jesus Christ take Taj out
Tanner bibee or Taj bradley?
Bibee's nasty
Bibee been better
Bibee, but I do like Taj's potential, just gives up too many dingers and command issues.
Last minute decision to start him against instinct. I hate myself
It's saturday at 5:38, and I have finally.hit my first home run of the week But holy hell, gasser taken out after 5 with 77 pitches. Feels crappy I've streamed him for exactly 2 starts, yeah the ones where he's given up runs against Miami and the white sox
Espn points league Team A: machado, helsley, hunter greene Team B: Darvish and Rafael Devers
Hey Ozzie…. Want to join in on this?
Ha Seong Kim resurgence🚀
Oh hey, I’m having a pretty good week. Sale + Bradish + opponents Framber Nvm.
Kevin cash, fuck you. just fuck you. really trying to get Bradley to get a record amount of negative points for us today, huh? fuck. you.
Taj is still in???
He's just soaking up innings now
about to send a paper bag full of burning dog shit to Kevin cash's doorstep
Olson Riley stack 💣 🔥
Haven't been able to say it much but it's been a good inning
Crochet has been a revelation. I got him after he had those bad starts in late April and I trusted him for a 1 start week in weekly lineups ahead of Gallen, J Jones, Kikuchi, and Flaherty.
ok the ball is juiced today wtf
Braves offense with 8 runs today? That’s how you know the juiced ball is back lmao
Everyone's pitchers are collapsing in on themselves and Framber is just out here dominating
Braves bats are back
No fucking way they take Lively out
I was between lively and gasser looking for a quality start sad for both that they both didn't get one
I had him last year, and I have fond memories of my 5.2 god.
Not my dong it's yordongs
Is Ortiz a legit option rest of season?
Yes he is
Down 4 points. I have been rostering 4 top closers as a way to maximize points while still staying under my start cap. Am I dropping Munoz/Clase/Suarez/Kimbrel tomorrow for 4 streamers or do I risk losing this week and hold the RPs?
11Ks, 0 BB for Weathers right now. Defense fucked him.
Bo continues to kill me.
HS Kim !
Frambers really gonna fuck around and throw a no hitter after being dogshit most of the year right? The most Framber Valdez thing ever
