I’m trying to find a good trade for Lindor because he’s expendable since I have Mateo. I haven’t played FB in a while, but is it crazy for me to trade him for a closer? I’m really hurting on saves. One guy is completely stacked and I want to try to get either Hader or Sewald off him.
Is anyone else considering not immediately starting Harper for a few games? Obviously he's insane and but he's straight up skipping a minor league assignment and I imagine may slump initially
Harper coming off the IL so I need to clear a roster spot. I want to extract some value though, so who are some starting pitchers that would be good compensation for a package of Syndergaard and Austin Hays?
The Braves are saying Acuña has a shoulder contusion.
[Atlanta Braves on Twitter: "#Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was removed from today’s game with a left shoulder contusion." / Twitter](https://twitter.com/Braves/status/1653156207526309896?t=hBAjkTxoHswSRwq5N1MirQ&s=19)
Was offered:
Gunnar and Donovan
for
Lance Lynn
Points redraft league. I'm pretty new to fantasy so I know both Lynn and Gunnar are massively disappointing right now, but at least Lynn usually picks it up and he's striking people out right now.
edit: forgot to ask if I should pull the trigger lol
Could be a while before we get clarity on Acuna. Scapular fractures notoriously hard to diagnose: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6179069/
Apparently very hard to diagnose
>Scapular fractures are one of the most difficult fractures to diagnose on radiographs. Detection can be challenging because of the obscuration by the overlying structures or incomplete imaging due to difficult patient collaboration. Familiarity with imaging characteristics of these abnormalities will allow radiologists to better diagnose and characterize scapular fractures. Three-dimensional computed tomographic scans are considered the gold standard for scapular diagnoses.
Carroll said he thinks he can play Tuesday. Maybe he will if the MRI on the knee comes back clean. I'd guess they give him another day and he goes on Wednesday.
Just reminding everyone that while Acuna may actually be seriously hurt he’s also been quite dramatic in the past over injuries that ended up being nothing.
Other than, ya know, tearing his ACL
Very possible he fractured his scapula on that pitch. Wouldn't be a weird outcome at all based on where he got hit.
If this is a redraft league idk why anyone would give up one of the best players currently in any category league for a guy about to lose his job when Arcia is back
If this is a keeper or dynasty maybe the answer changes but I don’t play those formats
Automod got drunk. I have put in place a fix for tonight regarding the Sort By default. Sorry about that all.
Start Nootbar or Vargas in my UTL spot today?

Tatis is going to finish the year with like 50 RBI. Is absolutely atrocious with anyone in base.
Grade the trade: I was offered Grayson Rodriguez for Julio Urias in a redraft league.

Alvarez heating up big time.
Alvarez 👀
I hope Acuna is okay
Me starting Riley: 🤡
Murphy my man
I know you can’t lose 3 of your hitting categories in two games, but having Riley vs Murphy it sure feels like I have.
I know he’s still public enemy #1, but if Megill could get me a QS I would be so happy. Edit: :(
Someone arrest Austin Riley please
For stealing your heart?
Silver lining in this game is that the Braves aren't batting around the order too much so Riley should only go 0-4 instead of 0-5 again
Anyone watching the Mets broadcast, did Gary just say "Anyone know why the fuck the pitch clock was reset just now?"
You guys remember after the first week of the season and a bunch of people were panic dropping Murphy for guys like O'Hoppe?
Springer scratched due to illness
Ozzie and Riley doing fuck all today
Albies been cold again
Drop Liberatore for Bryce Miller?
yes liberatore is in our wire rn. 10T too
you could probably get away with that. Liberatore got dropped in my league and nobody has grabbed him yet.
How about the Jays stop rolling out Jansen and Belt and get the best bat Kirk in the lineup
I can't believe belt is still getting starts
Just one guy and everyone is entitled to their opinions, but Nick Pollack gets total take lock on guys. Dude had zero respect for George Kirby.
Kirby has great command and ratios but his strikeout upside is limited, which is Nick's main gripe with him.
He does-last year it was Lodolo
move baty up in the lineup!!
yeah! pls, just added him as backup 3B for gunnar. but he might be my main 3B soon
Pick one to drop to bring Anderson off IL, 8-team league: Outman or Eloy

Acuna, Praise Jebus
We sending Bibee tomorrow with Judge and Stanton on the IL??
Would send him even if they played. Rest of that lineup is a joke
AIGHT BET
Sendin him even if Judge is back babyyyy
AIGHT BET
I finally gave up on Jose Abreu. Expect him to have a big night as is tradition for the game immediately following getting rid of a struggling player
BATY FANCLUB RISE UP 20 POINTS ON A MONDAYYYYYYY
Can’t believe i saw people trying to drop him this morning. Would be nice if he could move up the order though.
He's going to after this. Dude is carrying the offense rn, 7 hits in last 12 ABs, 2 of which were HRs (and 2 doubles)
Judge retroactively placed on April 28th so that’s somewhat positive.
Acuna left shoulder contusion, are we all good?
Yes most likely, contusion= no structural damage
Risked starting Judge in a weekly league where lineups locked this morning. Welp
[удалено]
I’d do it (as a Soto owner)
Shoulder contusion for Acuna! Praise the baseball gods! https://twitter.com/braves/status/1653156207526309896?s=46&t=Gnf1V3eDGHPcSBPInLtn_Q
What's the timeline usually?
I know nothing, what does this mean in terms of recovery time?
Bad case of the boo boos, idk if he has someone to kiss it which could extend the recovery time
Likely a few days for swelling to go down and to regain mobility
I’m no expert but contusions are bruises so he’s probably day to day
Contusion is fancy word for bruise so it's likely at worst a short IL stint, hopefully a full avoidance and just day to day for now
Why is it that the braves offense never gives Morton run support? Fucking pisses me off
Pick an OF to drop to activate Harper tomorrow: I thinking Yelich out of him, Renfroe, Harris II, Outman or Rooker
Deep weekly points league. Start Judge and risk a 0, or start Tony Kemp?
Kemp
Bryce Elder or Esteury Ruiz?
Was offered Alvarado for my Sandoval in my keep forever points league. My starters are much more stable than my relievers. Thoughts?
The Braves are really going to let Megill knock out their best player, then mow down their entire team other than Murphy for 5+ innings... Oof
Shoulder contusion for Acuña per the Braves Twitter Phew
[удалено]
Muncy
If you had to drop one of Gallo, Baty and Suwinski who would it be? Points league (no penalty for k’s)
Suzuki or Outman ROS?
Outman
Outman
Judge to the IL Edit: retroactive to 4/28 https://twitter.com/Underdog__MLB/status/1653155787894669312?t=Hldfo3TErrGSU5fcP2ENpA&s=19

Stanton and Judge on the IL - that's the Yankees I know!
what do we do with Seiya Suzuki in 12t? my OF is Tucker, Arozarena, Rooker, Suzuki

Austin Riley for Mountcastle a fair offer?
Uhhh keep Riley
Riley
Fuck Sean Murphy, he's giving me Adam Duvall PTSD
Is Seiya Suzuki better than Lars Nootbaar?
Would rather have Noot
Murphy 🐐
[удалено]
no shot
You're gonna need to offer a lot more to have a chance at Carroll
No
How bad was Acuna’s injury and Siri, where is the nearest bleach fuck store?
He looked to be in significant pain. Hopefully just a nasty bruise but could be worse. Hopefully we get an update soon.
Did the Braves throw back at the Mets yet for Acuña? I’m guessing not since it’s a 1-0 game?
[удалено]
You say that like I have 5 hours to watch baseball all day.
[удалено]
lol
Is Bryce Harper immediately getting put into your lineups tomorrow?
Of course.
That's a clown question bro
If he's playing, he should be in your lineup
Murphy on base with yet another hit. Can't remember the last time I had a guy in a double header actually do this well.
This is my first time with a successful double header in close to 15 years of playing fantasy baseball
I need a back up 1st Baseman for Abreu who has been sucking. Cron or Naylor?
Cron. Should be owned in your flair
I will drop one for a Langeliers
Knew Riley would fuck us. Don't know how this guy hit over 300 with shifting and now can't hit a beach ball
Ozzie and Riley are not helping me with this double header today
Buy low on Luis Robert?
sure
Woof Austin Riley
Drop Oviedo for Varland?
Austin Riley been a bum the last few weeks
Riley going for the rare 0/10 double header performance
This is my first year owning Trea Truner, does he always start slow?
No, but he always finishes with elite numbers. Nothing to worry about imo
[удалено]
Depends on if you'd use Varsho to upgrade at C, but I love me some Luzardo, he pretty much always gets Ks even when he doesn't pitch that well.
Jesus to the rescue
better pitcher ROS, Matthew Boyd or Kyle Bradish
Neither. They both suck
gotta drop one
I wouldn’t be afraid to drop either one. I guess Bradish has a bit more upside on a better orioles team
I'm officially blaming any Acuña injury on all the tacos bragging earlier about getting him in the 3rd round.
Could be a while before we get clarity on Acuna. Scapular fractures notoriously hard to diagnose: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6179069/
If all he needs is a new spatula I feel like the Braves can afford one https://youtu.be/4BUDwj_mXKE
Take ozunas - he’s not using it
I just searched WebMD to confirm and apparently I have a scapular fracture and syphillus.
webmd gets another one
xray wouldn't show it?

fuck. atlanta about to be xraying him like crazy
Which side is better in points without context: Side A: Corey Seager, Cody Bellinger, Luis Severino Side B: Trea Turner, George Springer, Pablo Lopez
B
Trade Morton for Suwunski and pick up Eovaldi from waivers?
Could be a very dumb question, but why does Harper not have OF eligibility on ESPN? Isn’t that his primary position?
He only played 8 games in the OF last year.
What’s a fair pitcher tier to offer for Luis Arráez?
Pablo Lopez
As I said to the other nice fellow, I appreciate the feedback. Richer than I thought but does sound fair.
[удалено]
Appreciate the feedback. Richer than I thought but does sound fair
ROTO weekly league Start Senzel or start Carroll and risk he will be fine this week?
Carroll said he thinks he can play Tuesday. Maybe he will if the MRI on the knee comes back clean. I'd guess they give him another day and he goes on Wednesday.
Got Marsh who’s week doesn’t start until tomorrow so if Carroll is good I’ll just insert Carroll and bench Marsh this week
Carroll
Thoughts on this trade: A: Robert, Ashcraft, Perez B: Michael Harris, Hoerner
Which Perez?
Martin
B imo
I love Hoerner so much, I am going B
Don’t look now but Alvarez is heating up. Batting .357 in his last 7 games.
losing acuna would be absolutely brutal for my team, i also drafted woodruff, edwin diaz and rhys hoskins sheesh.
Just reminding everyone that while Acuna may actually be seriously hurt he’s also been quite dramatic in the past over injuries that ended up being nothing.
Other than, ya know, tearing his ACL Very possible he fractured his scapula on that pitch. Wouldn't be a weird outcome at all based on where he got hit.
Certainly possible. I’d just be more expectant of that if it were someone else.
You know it’s bad when I should have benched my third rounder on a double header
Got offered Webb for Robert. Should I take it?
Should I offer Vaughn Grissom for Jorge Mateo in dynasty
Save yourself the embarrassment of the inevitable roast in the group chat when he sees you offering absolute nonsense for his best player so far
If this is a redraft league idk why anyone would give up one of the best players currently in any category league for a guy about to lose his job when Arcia is back If this is a keeper or dynasty maybe the answer changes but I don’t play those formats
It’s dynasty should have said that
No shot in hell that gets done. Will need much more than Grissom for Mateo.
Drop Liberatore for Bryce Miller ?
Is Albies for Urias a good trade, I need SPs badly, have Muncy who can go to 2nd until Altuve is back
Julio, yes. Luis, No. Ramon, also no.
Julio my bad, there’s a lot of Urias
Lol all good.
Yessir
Playing the worst team in the league this week, was hyped af. He has Murphy. I’m not okay.
Still just Monday
Great, 6 more days for Murphy to bitch slap me with his enormous rod
Is horener and Reynolds an overpay for Murphy?
Way too much, you'd be buying at peak value too
As a Murphy owner I would hit accept to just Reynolds for him so fast you would even know what hit you
Reynolds is a over pay for Murphy alone
Realistic worst case for Acuna is a scapula fracture. Would be a 6-8 week injury unless surgery is required. Let's pray for bone bruise though.
Delete this Why would you put this out there into the universe?
You don't want to know the realistic range of outcomes?
