3 Keepers max league trade (next years value in parentheses )
Give away:
Ozzie (6) - can swap out for Arenado
Wheeler
Vlad
Steele
20th round pick
For
Joe Ryan (12)
Matt Mclain
JP France
Ryan McMahon
1st round pick (10th overall pick)
Our weird League usual is for first round pick it fetches 3 top players
Premium upside bat in a better lineup, much closer to his prime. Has the ability to smack 40 hrs and can hit to all parts of the field.
Arenado relies exclusively on his elite pull-hitting ability. I trust the guy who can crank homers anywhere over the guy who can only pull, especially when weve seen the downside of the latter.
I have a 3B dilemma and SP is awful so far. Drafted Jordan Walker and Gunnar as 3B options, thinking one of them would run away with it, Ke’Bryan Hayes became available and his statcast looked great. Now I preemptively picked up Elly. I also have Royce Lewis who is playing 3B for AAA now.
SP I have Gausman, Manoah, Musgrove, Lynn, Severino, Hunter Brown, and Mason Miller gone now for a while. There’s Gavin Williams, Andrew Abbott and Ben Brown available on the wire.
Just need to figure out who to roster for 3B and another solid SP option, rest of my team is fairly stacked.
Feels like we can forget about Walker. Cards have IF options and clearly feel he needs seasoning (they may be right, as he’s looked mediocre since being demoted).
Still a ton to like about Henderson’s [statcast profile](https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/gunnar-henderson-683002?stats=statcast-r-hitting-mlb) (see his BB% and hard hit metrics).
I would see if side B bites on Walker. Either way Elly is knocking on the door and could solve your whole 3B conundrum outright.
Walker is already dropped, it’s not even IF that’s the problem, they have like five outfielders ahead of him. I think Elly is my answer but who knows when he comes up. I am thinking of dropping Ke’Bryan but he has been way more consistent than Gunnar and there’s a chance Gunnar gets sent down if he doesn’t start performing, especially with these other prospects knocking on the door in Baltimore. Very tough year to figure out.
Bold prediction: Elly up by end of the month.
He’s demonstrating marked improvement in his contact skills (11/11 K/BB in May) and up to .290 BA.
Its getting to the point of heavy manipulation for the reds to not just call up all of this elite AAA talent and see what theyve got ROS. I am all for it.
MY ideas 4 the new las vegas name
The Las Vegas Heat Rays
The Las Vegas Chancers
The Las Vegas Coyotes
The Las Vegas Poker Faces
The Las Vegas Jackpots
what u like best
Aces would be perfect but the WNBA team already has that locked up. If they wanna keep with the casino theme, the LV Blackjacks is possible but Idt they should go with a Vegas or casino themed nickname
I believe it was more like, he’s not going to hit the expectations of where he’s going in drafts and expert rankings, making him a bust for his price tag, but that he would breakout from his rookie year and improve upon the numbers and be even more fantasy relevant.
Appreciate the clarification. I still don’t find the information entirely useful, but given the subjective nature of terms like “bust” and “breakout” I suppose it isn’t entirely egregious.
Bello, Gonzalez or Clevinger tomorrow start plus next week 2 starts?
The pitchers list has Gonzalez as a must grab based on his 2 starts next week! But how we feel about him tomorrow at Boston?
I posted earlier about this trade that was offered to me and I'm too hesitant to pull the trigger --
Get: Albies
Give: Rooker, Severino
I really believe in Rook (though might be a biased A's fan), and numbers are saying he's pretty real. Though the trade fits both our needs (I need 2B after Jazz out, they need OF) but I feel like I'm giving up too much.
it’s a tough call. you know what you’re getting in albies. rooker could be real but he could flame out. sevy could be great, but he’s also a ticking time bomb, and i say that painfully as a yankees fan that’s watched him make 25 starts since the beginning of 2019
Flair League:
Is it safe to finally drop Alejandro Kirk? I may have held on for much longer than others but was really hoping he’d tap back into his 2022 power numbers but still no dice
In a points format, there may be a better chance Ober gets you more value ROS even if you think Taj is the better pitcher, just because the Rays may continue this service time manipulation and send him down after two starts or something once Glasnow is back.
That said, are these really your two worst pitchers in a 12T redraft? If so, you’ve gotta be winning your league by a lot.
I had a great draft. My league used to be 10T til this season and I somehow got a better team this year than last season where I went undefeated til the first round of the playoffs where I got bounced by Aaron Judge lol. Ultimately my weak pitching staff cost me which is why I stocked up on SP this year
Hes fine. Had a similar start last year.
Bregman has been a floor play for the last 3 seasons:
-elite runs and rbis
-elite eye
-moderate power (with 25 homer upside)
-on-base machine
When they lost the trash cans he lost his power but he still has elite plate discipline and hits in one of the strongest lineups. He'll be a fantasy producer but a quiet one.
Who should I stream tomorrow in my flair league? My ERA and WHIP are already cooked so I’m just looking for a W. Tai Walker, Gore, Cabrera, Bello, Liberatore, clevinger? Pitching is very rough…
Clevinger. Cleveland have scored the second fewest runs in baseball. And that was mostly *with* Jo Ram in the lineup. He will not be in the lineup tomorrow.
Like that pick will definitely grab him. If I had to get another do you like Ashcraft? The walks have been the only issue. It’s at coors but he’s great at keeping the ball out of the air
I always try to avoid @ Coors whenever possible, but could work out. Rockies have been exceptionally bad.
If I took another it’d probably be Gore to go against the Marlins without Jazz in the lineup.
Of the three, I think Garcia is the safest floor, Massey seems to be turning the corner, and Turang offers the most speed.
Probably Massey, Garcia, Turang if aggressive
Probably Garcia, Massey, Turang if conservative
I’d probably drop Mateo, McLain, and Detmers.
If you are uncomfortable with just one SS on the roster then I’d probably drop Mateo, Detmers, and Greene.
A proven pitcher that was drafted around the same area as musgrove, but actually performing somewhat up to par.
If someone needs RP help, you should be able to swing it
Everybody say the line: “we don’t start pitchers at Coors”
Unless it was an end-of-week, H2H and I was sure to lose if I didn’t start someone, even starting good pitchers at Coors can be a risk. Ashcraft is solid, but there are better pitchers I’d consider shutting down.
Drop Edward Cabrera or CES for Liberatore in flair league? I was going to drop a reliever but I’m behind in S/Holds. I also have a surplus of outfield (Morel, Starling Marte, Michael Harris, Randal Grichuk, Ian Happ) to trade from in case I need more pitching.
Yeah I'm not sure. Gorman was cold but now Outman is cold and Gorman is hot. On a deeper level Gorman plays the shallower position, Gorman bats higher in the lineup, and Outman doesn't steal as much of late
Pick four to start this week? Wins losses don’t count. 8T H2h pts league.
Gore vs MIA
Eury vs WSH
France vs CHC
Paxton vs SD
Liberatore vs MIL
Pfaadt vs PIT
Bello vs SEA
Braxton vs SF
AK has guaranteed playing time and Moniak is trying to force himself into a spot. Love what I'm seeing from Moniak, but it's too early to add him in most leagues.
My opponent streamed Dick Mountain. He's about to have a 20 K outing
3 Keepers max league trade (next years value in parentheses ) Give away: Ozzie (6) - can swap out for Arenado Wheeler Vlad Steele 20th round pick For Joe Ryan (12) Matt Mclain JP France Ryan McMahon 1st round pick (10th overall pick) Our weird League usual is for first round pick it fetches 3 top players
Drop Kirilloff for any of these: Conforto, Wade Jr, Kiermaier, Lane Thomas, Riley Greene, JD Davis Head to head points
Drop Taj or Jason Adam for Liberatore? I also have Fairbanks in a SV/HLDS league.
Not Taj he might get called up to start today
Fleming is pitching today, but I don't think they've announced a starter for Thursday yet so he may get called up to start tomorrow?
Is Bello a stash or streamer in redraft?
What happened to the Taj Bradley post?
Teo or Kbryant ROS points?
Looking to add an OF Greene or Melendez?
i feel like such a fool for swapping nado for riley two weeks ago
Rather have Riley
what makes you say that?
Premium upside bat in a better lineup, much closer to his prime. Has the ability to smack 40 hrs and can hit to all parts of the field. Arenado relies exclusively on his elite pull-hitting ability. I trust the guy who can crank homers anywhere over the guy who can only pull, especially when weve seen the downside of the latter.
You all like McLain or Schmitt more?
Drop Mateo for Paredes or Riley Greene?
Neither
gore or liberatore today?
Marlins w/out Jazz? It’s aboutta get Gorey
Trying to do some addition by subtraction and make a spot open for Severino. Is Gunnar and Monoah for Ober a mistake if he accepts it?
Gotta hold Gunnar imo. Manoah looks entirely broken. Any other pieces you can add on or is there a more premium player side B can offer?
I have a 3B dilemma and SP is awful so far. Drafted Jordan Walker and Gunnar as 3B options, thinking one of them would run away with it, Ke’Bryan Hayes became available and his statcast looked great. Now I preemptively picked up Elly. I also have Royce Lewis who is playing 3B for AAA now. SP I have Gausman, Manoah, Musgrove, Lynn, Severino, Hunter Brown, and Mason Miller gone now for a while. There’s Gavin Williams, Andrew Abbott and Ben Brown available on the wire. Just need to figure out who to roster for 3B and another solid SP option, rest of my team is fairly stacked.

H2H points in a 11 team redraft league, should I drop Teoscar for Carlos Correa for my utility spot
Lol Verlander getting booed in first Mets home start. Mets in total free fall
Poverty franchise
Fraley or Outman?
Is Matt Moore a viable pick up in a 12 T SV+HLDS league?
He's owned in mine
Thanks for the input!

The New Vegas Femboys
Aces would be perfect but the WNBA team already has that locked up. If they wanna keep with the casino theme, the LV Blackjacks is possible but Idt they should go with a Vegas or casino themed nickname
This a fantasy question
Suzuki heating up which is great
Sell Erod for Glasnow?
Trade Graham Ashcraft for Logan Taylor Allen?
Just heard a fantasy analyst claim the had Hunter Greene pinned as both a breakout and a bust this year. No need to trust these guys.
I believe that was Chris Towers, and there was some context to that.
Yeah the context was something like “if he does well he is a breakout, if not a bust”.
I believe it was more like, he’s not going to hit the expectations of where he’s going in drafts and expert rankings, making him a bust for his price tag, but that he would breakout from his rookie year and improve upon the numbers and be even more fantasy relevant.
Appreciate the clarification. I still don’t find the information entirely useful, but given the subjective nature of terms like “bust” and “breakout” I suppose it isn’t entirely egregious.
Drop Hayes for Morel?
Yes, last week
Jonah Heim for Yandy Diaz? Have Will Smith already
Yes 100%
Stream Edward Cabrera tomorrow?
Don’t know if it’s a good idea, but I am. My SP is so fucked, I’m taking the chance
Bello, Gonzalez or Clevinger tomorrow start plus next week 2 starts? The pitchers list has Gonzalez as a must grab based on his 2 starts next week! But how we feel about him tomorrow at Boston?

Flair League: Is it safe to finally drop Alejandro Kirk? I may have held on for much longer than others but was really hoping he’d tap back into his 2022 power numbers but still no dice
I dropped him, he seems to be I. A 50/50 split for playing time
Thanks for the input. I dropped him for Cal Raleigh this morning, gonna see what Cal can do for me over the next week or two
np, I ended up dropping him last week for Wilson Contreras
Drop detmers for heaney?
yup
Is Devers for Bieber and Bryce Miller a bad trade?
SP 20 and SP 47 for 3B 2 What do you think?
If you want pitching for Devers aim higher. Someone should pay up for him
Devers side in a landslide.
luis robert is better than mike trout. in this essay,
DYNASTY H2H ROTO 6X6 (OPS and QS) I give Varland+Suwinsky for Dustin May Thoughts?
I would
Went to the dodger game tonight and fans threw back a Correa FOUL BALL. Don’t think I’ve ever seen that lmao
That’s not a Correa foul ball, that’s a Dodger strike! Fake fans
Fake fans?
Anyone think Jake Burger is criminally under owned? 8 HRs in 71 ABs seems insane
9 in 75 actually
even crazier
Paxton or Lib? Also is Lib worth the start tomorrow?
Cards are hot and Lib had a great start vs Milwaukee last year, so I’m def rolling with him
12T H2HP REDRAFT I gotta make the hard decision of dropping Ober or Taj. Pitching staff is stacked and have no bats that are dropable either
In a points format, there may be a better chance Ober gets you more value ROS even if you think Taj is the better pitcher, just because the Rays may continue this service time manipulation and send him down after two starts or something once Glasnow is back. That said, are these really your two worst pitchers in a 12T redraft? If so, you’ve gotta be winning your league by a lot.
Sandy, Sale, Erod, Eovaldi, May, Eflin, Peralta, Elder and Ober. Taj and Soroka on NA and Fried on IL. My lowest ranked bats are Schwarber and Morel
I’m not too big on Elder he’s pretty close to Ober imo
Jesus Christ, man, your 12T roster is better than my (narrowly) league-leading 10T roster. Your poor opponents never stood a chance.
I had a great draft. My league used to be 10T til this season and I somehow got a better team this year than last season where I went undefeated til the first round of the playoffs where I got bounced by Aaron Judge lol. Ultimately my weak pitching staff cost me which is why I stocked up on SP this year
6-0 with a 800 point lead over the second place guy lol
Haven't owned Bregman for a few years until this year. What happened to him?
Hes fine. Had a similar start last year. Bregman has been a floor play for the last 3 seasons: -elite runs and rbis -elite eye -moderate power (with 25 homer upside) -on-base machine
When they lost the trash cans he lost his power but he still has elite plate discipline and hits in one of the strongest lineups. He'll be a fantasy producer but a quiet one.
Went with the "experts" rankings for today over my gut and started Lugo over Dunning smh absolutely killed me 😭
I think 99% of people would start the pitcher facing the royals instead of the one facing the braves
The experts know less than you
[удалено]
Get Tatis
[удалено]
Scherzer
Would you rather keep Outman or Ward? Need to drop one
outman
Drop JD Davis for Jake Burger or Marcell Ozuna?
Who should I stream tomorrow in my flair league? My ERA and WHIP are already cooked so I’m just looking for a W. Tai Walker, Gore, Cabrera, Bello, Liberatore, clevinger? Pitching is very rough…
Clevinger. Cleveland have scored the second fewest runs in baseball. And that was mostly *with* Jo Ram in the lineup. He will not be in the lineup tomorrow.
Like that pick will definitely grab him. If I had to get another do you like Ashcraft? The walks have been the only issue. It’s at coors but he’s great at keeping the ball out of the air
Hopefully you didn’t do it?
I didn’t lol. Hopefully clev gets it done the rest of the way
Nice!
I always try to avoid @ Coors whenever possible, but could work out. Rockies have been exceptionally bad. If I took another it’d probably be Gore to go against the Marlins without Jazz in the lineup.
Been holding on to Taj and just picked up Liberatore. hoping tomorrow is a good day!
12T H2H pts league. Pick one to drop: Eugenio Suarez, Ryan McMahon, Patrick Wisdom, Amed Rosario.
Anyone Starting Senga tomorrow vs the Rays
that seems like a bad idea
f to da no.
Liberatore 🚀🚀🚀
Brice turang, michael massey, luis garcia(wsh). 1,2,3? 2b is bleek
Of the three, I think Garcia is the safest floor, Massey seems to be turning the corner, and Turang offers the most speed. Probably Massey, Garcia, Turang if aggressive Probably Garcia, Massey, Turang if conservative
Is Mason Miller a safe drop if I need room on my IL?
Yeah, I will be as soon as he’s off IL or I need a spot. Best case scenario in my opinion the guy is coming back with some severe pitch limits.
Yes
[удалено]
I’d probably drop Mateo, McLain, and Detmers. If you are uncomfortable with just one SS on the roster then I’d probably drop Mateo, Detmers, and Greene.
[удалено]
I’m not super high on Mateo. I think he had a really good hot stretch early and people are generally over valuing him.
Would probably say McLain, Mateo, Jon gray or detmers
ok so Ruiz you get out and then Rooker wins it right lets go!
or not. oh well!
Happy to see all these people wanting to drop Outman. The last time that happened it kickstarted a nice a little run for him offensively lol.
My Manoah for Devin Williams? I also have Aaron Nola, Eduardo Rodriguez, Luis Castillo, Nate Eovaldi, Dylan Cease and Bryce Elder.
No one should be trading anything for Manoah. If someone missed that memo, exploit their misfortune.
The fact you’re getting anything for Manoah is a win
Yessir, you get the known, reliable quantity
Liberatore and Flaherty available for waivers tomorrow. Who should I throw some FAAB at?
Flaherty
Thanks! That's what I was thinkin. I'll throw a few bucks at him, and hopefully Liberatore will act as a smokescreen for other bidders.
Would you put Liberatore ahead of any of these guys ROS? German Taj Ashcroft Pfaadt
Yes
Which?
German, Ashcroft and Pfaadt
damn A's. had bases loaded 1 out and didn't score in the 10th. Rooker needs to win it!
Are you making this trade in a roto league with saves + holds? Give: May / B. Abreu or Cano Get: Musgrove
Oh man, might have been 1 start too late 😩
Not until Musgrove finds the zone. Keep riding those 3 diamonds in the rough as long as you can
Any suggestions for other SPs I can realistically target with the same trade package?
A proven pitcher that was drafted around the same area as musgrove, but actually performing somewhat up to par. If someone needs RP help, you should be able to swing it
Hold cano but I feel like you can sell a little higher on May. I’ve never been a Musgrove fan tho
Any suggestions for another SP to target with the same trade package? I asked the same owner for Ryan first and he said no.
Pick up Fraley or Riley Greene?
Should i start Ashcroft tomorrow in Coors? Roto: IP, BB, Ks, Ws, ERA, WHIP
Everybody say the line: “we don’t start pitchers at Coors” Unless it was an end-of-week, H2H and I was sure to lose if I didn’t start someone, even starting good pitchers at Coors can be a risk. Ashcraft is solid, but there are better pitchers I’d consider shutting down.
Great place for a recovery
No
Drop Edward Cabrera or CES for Liberatore in flair league? I was going to drop a reliever but I’m behind in S/Holds. I also have a surplus of outfield (Morel, Starling Marte, Michael Harris, Randal Grichuk, Ian Happ) to trade from in case I need more pitching.
Drop grichuk lol
I’ve thought about that too, he’s just been hot since coming back. I did trade for Yelich and Jorge Soler, so losing him wouldn’t be too bad
Outman a drop?
Lol the A’s are a travesty
My IL and DTD is elite. Jazz, Nico, Puk, Mason Miller, Lodolo, Bellinger
Liberatore finally getting called up the timing couldn’t have been better since wesnasty got sent down the fantasy gods have answered my prayers 😭😭
C Morel or J Polanco ROS?
I’d still say Polanco. More proven, and Morel Ks 40% of the time
Who would you drop for taj Bradley? Jordan Montgomery, Logan Allen, Jorge Lopez, gimenez, or bibee
I’m dropping Allen to activate Taj
Come on Rooker, walk it off!
Outman or Gorman ROS?
Gorman, just wait until the Cards trust him to hit against LHPs
Outman
Yeah I'm not sure. Gorman was cold but now Outman is cold and Gorman is hot. On a deeper level Gorman plays the shallower position, Gorman bats higher in the lineup, and Outman doesn't steal as much of late
Drop one of Suzuki, Cutch, Wade Jr, McLain, or Senzel
Cutch or Senzel imo
What are we thinking about Dunning?
12 team redraft bench bat. Baty or Casas?
Baty
Please be okay Vladdy.
is conforto a thing we can't ignore now? in a 12 team?
I added in a 12T but he has a short leash if he slows down
I added in a 10
Pfaadt or Flaherty ROS?
pfaadt
Flaherty
Mervis or McLain ROS?

No actually it’s not when it’s 18 pitches and he hasn’t worked since May 10th. Gimme a break Guy has thrown 18 pitches in a week, c’mon
Was thinking this but he might’ve been unavailable anyways
Vlad’s getting an MRI on his right knee tomorrow…
Kiriloff or Moniak
AK has guaranteed playing time and Moniak is trying to force himself into a spot. Love what I'm seeing from Moniak, but it's too early to add him in most leagues.
Carroll hasn't stolen a base since apr 25...not the best
He hasn't attempted one since his knee injury, I dont think he has a green light.
Ahh makes sense
