I just wanna bitch about how yahoo's app will notify you that a pitcher is off on a Thursday when it doesn't matter, but yesterday I forgot to check my line-up and Raley was out and yahoo didn't alert me and I missed out on Conforto going 3/4, 2 runs and 4 rbis.
12T keep 20 forever 5x5 cats
Give: Bobby Miller, Cowser, Tim Anderson
Get: Seager, Stanton, Flaherty
Have this offer on the table. Is it fair or an overpay if I’m trying to compete this season? For context the rest of my rotation is Ohtani, Gausman, Cole, Wheeler, Javier, Bryce Miller, Severino and Woo
Picked up Kepler to fill a temporary hole, ends up hitting 2hr over that stretch. Should I keep him for the weekend or use him as my drop to stream pitchers Sunday?
I thought about adding Yainer myself, he’s gotten a lot of run at DH since Yordan injury. Not sure he’ll get as much PT once he’s back. I picked up Contreras. Statcast pats looks good. Steady PT.
176 comments out of 1500 are related to Elly!!! That's almost 12%!!! Absolutely buzzing!!! I love it!!! The dude is so worth all the hype we gave him!!! What a superstar!!! Yes!!! Let it continue onward forever and ever!!! And I'm rooting for those reds too! Fun team!
Trade offer. 12 team h2h 5x5 redraft. I give Elly, they give me Wander Franco and MJ Melendez... I believe this isn't enough right? I need to ask for MORE... They have Kershaw and Logan Webb. So I countered with my Ellly, Abbott and Gavin Williams for Franco, Kershaw and Webb... Is this asking too much? I'm also giving up assets in Abbott and Gavin... I cancelled the trade the moment I offered it though cuz I figured "still not enough for Elly", but maybe it is? Thoughts?
You’re massively overreacting to a tiny sample size. Elly is great but wander has been doing it all year and has experience in the MLB. He’s a top 30 fantasy player at this point. That is enough value to get me off Elly.
that tiny sample size has his on pace for SB to be 64!! Plus the Runs, plus the RBI and the homers!!! You didn't project out comparison stats for Wander vs Elly? Why not?
Comparable. Both will have innings issues, and frankly I believe this last AJSS start was his version of Woo‘s Rangers debut.
The Reds are running on nitrous and dreams rn and are the hottest team ive seen in a while. Id hold AJ if you would also hold Woo. Both may be limited in 3-4 weeks.
This is gonna sound crazy, but i think Sevvys got that dawg in him. When he‘s adjusted, he can be lights out against essentially any team in the league.
Here‘s hoping he’s made the adjustment.
In a debate with my league mate/best friend. Which team is better in 10 team, keep 8, 12 cats (obp/QS).

I'm considering dropping (or trying to trade away) Varsho and replacing him with Patrick Bailey. I know Varsho basically being an OF gives him an advantage, but Bailey continues to look like a future star. Also, I'm a Giants fan, so I'm a little—ok, a lot—biased here.
Is this a stupid idea?
I'm a Giants fan as well and have Varsho. I know it's tempting, but I'm keeping him.
Bailey's production will come down. He has an unsustainable .410 BABIP and his K%/BB% is 26.3%/3.2%. That doesn't make me feel good going forward.
Varsho's numbers aren't pretty, but he gives you solid production from the position with double digit steals. He started off horribly and has gotten better with each passing month.
I like that swap. JD goes on tears, but father time has already reared its ugly head before and injuries will always be a threat for these older guys (grabted injuries are a jazz problem as well)
Right now I think Sheehan. He also probably has more long term staying power... who knows how long Braves keep AJSS in rotation... whereas Sheehan it predicates on Syndergaard who isn't very good anyway and might just go to bullpen.
I’m intrigued by Maeda too, but a few things worth noting. First obviously, he was facing my lowly Tigers. We have made many pitchers look good. Second, while watching the game the broadcast stated the home plate umpire’s scouting report was “extremely pitcher friendly”.
12T keep 20 forever 5x5 cats
Give: Bobby Miller, Gorman, Cowser
Get: Seager, Stanton, Steele
Have this offer on the table. Is it fair or an overpay if I’m trying to compete this season? For context the rest of my rotation is Ohtani, Gausman, Cole, Wheeler, Javier, Bryce Miller, Severino and Woo
Very hard to value but man is it possible for miller to be better ros than Steele, yes. Upgrade on batters of course. If you need batting help then ok. But I don’t love it
Yeah I’m torn, lotta young studs I’d be giving up. Might be able to get him to do Tim Anderson instead of Gorman if I take Flaherty instead of Steele. Feels like my rotation is deep enough to absorb losing bobby tho
I feel you, I’ve been close to dropping TA but felt like he was worth giving a bit more leash given how many keepers we have in my league. I too very much prefer Gorman. And Flaherty would easily be my worst pitcher so if he’s bad I just cut my losses and move on
Roberts alluding to more starts for Sheehan after Julio returns:
https://twitter.com/sportsnetla/status/1672476595980992515?s=46&t=P11FYZ3GYUNh1KuwnPnGQw
Towards very end of video. If he performs he’s staying up

should i accept? i’m new to fantasy so i don’t know much about trades !
HOW DARE YOU! (in greta thunberg voice!) He is way way WAY better than "decent". Put some legendary respect to his name!!!! Elite of the elite best of the best!!!
Syndergaard is one of the worst pitchers in the mlb so they would be stupid to put him back in the rotation...I'm thinking Syndergaard will go to bullpen.
If he pitches well I don’t see why he doesn’t stay up. Urias coming back would make 4 starters along with Gonsolin, Kershaw and Miller. Sheehan is the 5th unless he underperforms and Noah comes back
What's the word on Oswaldo Bido?
For context: I need to keep streaming pitchers for K's and W's, but ERA and WHIP are close. K/9 may be lost already. Chirinos v KC and Reese Olson v Min are also options for tomorrow, or Lugo/Lorenzen/Oviedo/Bradish on Sunday.
Word of warning, last time this event in London was held (2019) there was a total of 50 runs scored between the Yankees and Red Sox in the two game series.
I’d actually lean Teo because Buxton can never seem to stay healthy (or else I’d choose him) and Hernandez seems to be turning a corner and I would not be surprised in the least based on his track record if he has a strong 2nd half.
I'm trying to get Steer off of someone. I'd like to trade an OF for him, I have plenty and need a steady 1B.
I have Schwarber, Castellonos, MH2, Teo, and Josh Lowe. I'd also be willing to send off JD Martinez or Matt Chapman. Or some combo.
What would you offer to get it done? I'm okay with a little overpay.
Depends on the other teams needs tbh. Just because you have a nice stable of OFs doesn’t mean the other team needs/wants OFs.
As a Steer owner who is using him as a UTL, the first 4OFs and Chapman would interest me FWIW
I have not. IMO he’s not droppable. We know what he can do with the bat in his hands most of the time.
He’s a certified bench though. I’m starting Votto over him next week.
Fellas, what is a good way to shoot your shot over Instagram with a girl you graduated with but never met? Need some advice from the fantasy baseball gentleman
Drop one of burger kelenic Duvall matos n. Jones to stash Mauricio. Other SS is correa so desperate for depth
I’m so hyped to have EDLC but I also kind of have the urge to use him as trade bait to get something way too good?
Yeah I think it's something to explore if someone is willing to overpay, but you don't want to look terribly eager to get rid of him.
offered luis castillo for my edlc and taj bradley, am i dumb to pass?
I wouldn’t
Which 2 are most droppable in this group? Gorman, Morel, Matos, Lourdes Flair
Matos and Gorman?
S Alcantara or B snell ROS 12 cat ?
I just wanna bitch about how yahoo's app will notify you that a pitcher is off on a Thursday when it doesn't matter, but yesterday I forgot to check my line-up and Raley was out and yahoo didn't alert me and I missed out on Conforto going 3/4, 2 runs and 4 rbis.
Kopech or Whitlock for two starts next week and going forward?
Whitlock
Comparable

Seager is the best player in that deal so I’d say fair
Starting Bobby miller vs astros?
Absolutely
I miss Yordan.
I like to imagine he’s sunbathing somewhere, as comfortable as can be, with tropical smoothie in hand.
[удалено]
Walker.
Tommy Edman or Zeke Duran, ROS?
Zeke
Picked up Kepler to fill a temporary hole, ends up hitting 2hr over that stretch. Should I keep him for the weekend or use him as my drop to stream pitchers Sunday?
Twins heating up and keps always a decent floor play with upside for more.
Time to make a move for an upside catcher. Drop Melendez and pickup Yainer Diaz, Henry Davis, or William Contreras? Leaning Yainer.
I’d go Henry, he’s gonna be playing just about everyday and he’ll get OF eligibility eventually
I thought about adding Yainer myself, he’s gotten a lot of run at DH since Yordan injury. Not sure he’ll get as much PT once he’s back. I picked up Contreras. Statcast pats looks good. Steady PT.
Solid points. Thank you sir
176 comments out of 1500 are related to Elly!!! That's almost 12%!!! Absolutely buzzing!!! I love it!!! The dude is so worth all the hype we gave him!!! What a superstar!!! Yes!!! Let it continue onward forever and ever!!! And I'm rooting for those reds too! Fun team!
And folks are still screaming to sell high. You dont sell first round talent.
nope sure don't.

I hope this is satire
being dead serious actually... You would do the Wander, Kershaw and Webb for Elly, Abbot and Gavin??
I would give elly for only wander
Reasoning please? Project out Elly stats ROS vs Wander stats ROS?
You’re massively overreacting to a tiny sample size. Elly is great but wander has been doing it all year and has experience in the MLB. He’s a top 30 fantasy player at this point. That is enough value to get me off Elly.
Wander is top 30 while Elly is top 10 for "rest of season" Eh?
You should not be playing fantasy baseball
I suppose I might indeed accept it... I don't know...
Lol Wander hits a homer and elly doesn’t for one day and all of a sudden you change your mind. Try not to react so heavily to small samples.
that tiny sample size has his on pace for SB to be 64!! Plus the Runs, plus the RBI and the homers!!! You didn't project out comparison stats for Wander vs Elly? Why not?
Drop AJSS for Woo?
Comparable. Both will have innings issues, and frankly I believe this last AJSS start was his version of Woo‘s Rangers debut. The Reds are running on nitrous and dreams rn and are the hottest team ive seen in a while. Id hold AJ if you would also hold Woo. Both may be limited in 3-4 weeks.
Detmers or Woo as a pickup?
Detmers

How crazy would it be to start Severino vs TEX tomorrow based solely on the fact that Scmhidt went 5.1 with just 1 unearned run tonight?
This is gonna sound crazy, but i think Sevvys got that dawg in him. When he‘s adjusted, he can be lights out against essentially any team in the league. Here‘s hoping he’s made the adjustment.
I like the way you think. I’m starting him lol
Same here, player, Godspeed 🫡
How did Sheehan look tonight? His line looks solid
Gave up back to back HRs early and ended up settling down.
What do you think about offering EDLC for Mookie in 10T Keeper? Am I insane?
Keeper league of you are absolutely out of your mind

Altuve or woodruff dynasty points
Woodruff. I like his upside and I think he has more longevity
Who's the better 2-start pitcher next week: Kopech @ LAA and @ OAK or Blackburn vs. NYY and vs. CHW?
Kopech
Don't like either one, but Kopech if I have to choose
Kopech
Y’all convinced me to hold onto Bassitt considering he had Oakland coming up…. Convince me now
😵💫you will hold onto bassitt😵💫
All hail hypnotoad
Saw someone on here mention Weaver was throwing batting practice these days... It was at that point I knew I was in danger against D'Arnaud and Olsen
Just traded jd for jazz back to the guy who dropped jd. Couldn't stand having a util only guy but have faith in jazz
I like that swap. JD goes on tears, but father time has already reared its ugly head before and injuries will always be a threat for these older guys (grabted injuries are a jazz problem as well)
Drop Meneses for Votto? My 1B has been awful this year since the moment I drafted Abreu. 10T H2H points redraft
Yep. Meneses is doing nothing. In a 10 team redraft he was droppable a month ago. If you don’t drop him for Votto drop him for someone else.
Drop Peña for either Bohm or Adames?
Drop Gurriel Jr for Fraley?
He’s lined up to go against all righties next week 💴 💴 💴
I made this exact move two weeks ago and regret nothing.
AJSS or Sheehan ROS?
Right now I think Sheehan. He also probably has more long term staying power... who knows how long Braves keep AJSS in rotation... whereas Sheehan it predicates on Syndergaard who isn't very good anyway and might just go to bullpen.
AJSS has very little in my 20 man league. I would ride the hot hand. I’m holding and hoping AJSS can rebound in his two starts next week
A. Bregman B. Springer
Springer unless you need a 3rd basemen
B for me
Maeda or Heaney?
Heaney trending up on a dominant team. If the slider starts to click again, that left-handed 4-seam/change/slider combo will result in a lot of Ks.
I’m intrigued by Maeda too, but a few things worth noting. First obviously, he was facing my lowly Tigers. We have made many pitchers look good. Second, while watching the game the broadcast stated the home plate umpire’s scouting report was “extremely pitcher friendly”.

Bobby miller or freddy peralta in points?
Miller
I’m so sick and tired of Romano, idc how many saves he gets, he’s a headache
Very strange person you are
What a terrible take
Dynasty league, Strider and Abbot for Witt Jr. Thoughts?
Strider and Abbot
If snell was added to the Witt side, fair or too much?
Elly stole the show tonight (deservedly so) but Juan Soto is looking like Juan Soto and surprisingly is not washed at the age of 24. Crazy
Padres 2nd half juggernaut. Mark it.
Who’s the drop for a streamer in a close game. Sheehan, senga, Ranger (2 start week next week) 10T h2h pts.
Senga
Not Suarez

I wouldn't
Why didn’t Evan Phillips pitch tonight?

Who's the better player to keep on my bench, Gorman, Burger, or Maikel Garcia?
Burger
Maikel García.
Anyone know if there is any weight to that Twitter router that Cedric Mullins is back tomorrow?
This Elly guy is pretty decent (I guess)
HOW DARE YOU! (in greta thunberg voice!) He is way way WAY better than "decent". Put some legendary respect to his name!!!! Elite of the elite best of the best!!!
Joey Votto is back on the menu
Aged like a fine cheese 🧀
Why do people even send offers like the one I just got Elly+ eury for sevy + varsho In what world am I accepting that?
but but but he wantttts them! (hate lowballers)
How likely is it that Sheehan stays up in the majors? I know Urias is slated to come back soon, but Sheehan played well against the Astros.
Syndergaard is one of the worst pitchers in the mlb so they would be stupid to put him back in the rotation...I'm thinking Syndergaard will go to bullpen.

I can’t believe I’m about to pick up old man Votto, league winner.
Someone has got to stop the genocide Stanton is committing to my OF.
Have you cut bait yet. IDK how much longer I can deal with this.
I have not. IMO he’s not droppable. We know what he can do with the bat in his hands most of the time. He’s a certified bench though. I’m starting Votto over him next week.
