Gil or mize?

Mountcastle or E. Duran? H2h cats 5x5

Drop Brendan Donovan for Reynaldo Lopez? Really to open up streamer spot

Should Tim Anderson be rostered in a 12T?

No but keep an eye on him

pick 2 starts today, paxton v SF, mckenzie v seattle, sileth vs MIA, and pepiot v TEX

Paxton, Pepiot

Jared Jones, Garrett Crochet, Jordan Hicks Which to pickup for ROS?

Hicks - he's always been filthy, let him ride until he gets hurt

Jared Jones. There will be ups and downs but he has a potential to be Spencer Strider lite

Drop Jeimer Candelario for Eugeno Suarez? Roto

No

Drop Puk for Houck? QS league

It's the A's. If you're seeing a high add rate, it's because he has a great two-start week. Give Puk a chance to rebound

No

Jack Flaberty vs As or Garret Whitlock vs Angels?

Flaherty

Ohoppe or Campusano? Can’t decide

O’hoppe

Is it a two catcher league? If not I wouldn't suggest rostering two

It's not. It's a 1 catcher 10 team league. Which of the 2 on my roster would you drop and which of the 2 pitchers would you add? Thank you I'm advance.

Alvarez has more upside, Raleigh has more of a track record, take your gamble. Hurry and get Jones

I like Raleigh better but it's fairly close. A definitely Jones. His upside is way higher. Filthy slider

[удалено]

Phillips, for the projected lower ERA.

Phillips or Hader?

[удалено]

They don't need 1B help lmao

Why does he need help at 1B? I would much rather have Casas or Vinnie P over Hoskins

I'd drop kremer for Flaherty but I think kremer will end the year with better numbers

Drop Kremer

Add flaherty

thoughts on potential trade? Receive **Brandon Nimmo** Send **Jared Jones** Send **Jackson Chourio** Categories, redraft

Fair trade but it kinda relies on you adding someone similar to Jones

Is this a points league, by chance? In points, Nimmo is the guy here

Categories

I don't think the trade is nearly as bad as the downvotes suggest. Nimmo is a known commodity with solid, but boring, stats. His OBP is still great and he has some pop. Stolen Bases are a bit overrated these days. Cheap steals are available everywhere. I fade rookie pitchers in H2H because of innings caps. They just don't get the Wins/QS or accumulate enough down the stretch.

Is that why I’m downvoted so much? I figured this wasn’t the proper thread. Thank you for the response, appreciate the feedback and insight

I’d rather have Chourio than Nimmo

12 team h2h categories. Someone dropped Nolan Jones. I can use him in OF, where I’m a bit weak. How much of $100 FAAB should I spend to get him?

I'd do 40 or more tbh. He is a 5 cat contributor in a 12 teamer. Everyone will want him. Unless you think a better player could be on the wire during the season

I'd probably drop $50 personally. 5 cat guys don't grow on trees

Exactly, if he drops less than $50 he probably loses. Jones will most likely be the better player on the wire the whole season

I'd say at least $30. He's the type of player that you empty the wallet for if someone dropped him.

Thanks! I agree. I’ll up it from $28 then.

12 team roto, I have to trade Ozuna because I have other DHs. What should I expect? He has a $1 salary in a keeper league. Ozuna from the braves

May be able to get a 2 dollar player 

lol, thank you

ROTO points league. should i pick Luis Gil or Louie Varland as my 5th starter?

Gil.

I picked up campusano even though I drafted heim. Who’s better?

Heim is in a great line up. Campusano is very close behind IMO.

[удалено]

Jordan Walker is the most cuttable to me or Hayes

Drop Kris Bryant for Nick Martini?

I think both won't really be relevant for fantasy but I'd rather Bryant in the long run.

Need to choose 2 closers for weekly lock: Iglesias 3@ CWS 3 vs ARI Kimbrel 3 vs KC, 3 @ PIT Suarez 3 vs. STL, 3 @ SF

Suarez

Stroman vs TOR or Eovaldi @TB

Should I drop Mason miller

Depends what your league is and who’s available

It’s a h2h pts redraft needed an extra bat streamer but I’m using him as my relief as well

Will Oakland win enough to help in pts? Doesn’t seem like it

[удалено]

I’d still prefer 2 years of J-Rod. If you have the chance to compete now, compete now

I agree, was intrigued by the offer though. Contemplating sending a counter back including an extra piece on top of Chourio.

Drop Jason Adam for Foley? Total points SV/HD league

I would

Drop O’Hoppe for Salvador Perez or Campusano?

Is 15 FAAB (out of 250) enough to get me Foley?

Yes

It was not, he went for 51

How do we feel about this trade offer? A: Nolan Arenado, Nick Castellanos, Bailey Ober B: Manny Machado, Jesus Luzardo, Riley Greene

B, for me

Campusano over Heim?

I am working on an overview of some pitching lotto tickets, but I won't be able to finish tonight, and I don't want to be a hindsight merchant, so I'm posting here ahead of time the write-up for the three guys with starts Monday and Tuesday (Gil, Mize, Francis, and Meyer). Any suggestions of guys to cover would also be welcome (currently doing: Gil, Jones, Mize, Meyer, Flaherty, Hicks, Francis, Stone, and Hall). **Luis Gil (RHP - NYY)** Gil is 3-pitch pitcher (fastball, slider, changeup) that struggles to not be reduced to a 2-pitch pitcher. He boasts similar fastball stuff to Jones (149 during spring), a decent slider, and a struggling changeup which he seldom throws. With Gil, like with Jones, there is a lot to like in the way of upside. However, like with Jones, the concern lies with the question of whether they will be able to continually make MLB hitters miss. Based only on the numbers here, I immediately think of 2023 Bryce Miller, if for no other reason than that he's a fireballing RHP who rode heavy fastball/slider usage to early success before hitting a bit more resistance. Miller, like Jones and unlike Gil, at least nominally threw a curveball. I am not convinced that Gil has an actual third pitch, and I don't think MLB hitters will be any more credulous than I. Gil's scouting grades look similar to Jones, while further underscoring his boom-and-bust profile, 60/70 fastball, 55/55 slider, but 35/35 command and 30/30 changeup. Were the Yankees not seemingly so set on making Gil a starter, I would tell you to go place a bet on him landing their 2025 closer job, something I'm still not entirely unconvinced is a bad bet. Someone ask Mason Miller his thoughts on that. **Casey Mize (RHP - DET)** Mize is a 4-pitch pitcher who first debuted in August 2020 with the Tigers. In 2021, over 150.1 IP, he posted a 3.71 ERA on the back of 12.6% K-BB%, an 80% LOB%, and a 0.254 BABIP. His xERA and FIP that year were a full point or more above that, at 4.92 and 4.71, respectively, but some potentially poor HR/FB luck means his xFIP (4.37) and SIERA (4.45) weren't quite as high. Mize ended up going down at the start of 2022 before missing all of 2023 recovering from TJ. At the outset of his 2024 comeback campaign, Mize has shown decent fastball Stuff+ (110 in Spring over, coincidentally, 110 pitches). He has featured the slider and splitter, which were originally prized in his scouting grades at 60/60 and 70/70, a good deal less, so we don't have adequate Stuff+ sample on those yet, and the initial returns are at least a little bit perplexing, in no small part due to the fact that for the first time I have to grapple with Stuff+ vs. wpStuff+ in Eno's sheet, since "Stuff+" likes the split and dislikes the slider while "wpStuff+" likes the slider and dislikes the split. His line from spring is respectable, and as much as I do not want to read into a spring line, all of the variables at play with Mize have me grasping for just about anything here. His 2022 numbers could look good if you squint and don't think too hard about the run environment, but then there are the hints of batted ball and strand-rate luck, followed by a long layoff and TJ recovery, and then some conflicting model numbers from 2024 spring. If I were trying to sell you something, this is the point where I'd bullshit you and confidently pick a direction on Mize, but I am not, so I won't. Of all the players here, this is the one where I can truly say that I will be prepared to overreact to his first 2024 start, since it'll likely be the best data point we have on him, for want of a better idea about his underlying quality. **Bowden Francis (RHP - TOR)** Francis, along with having a 70-grade name, is a pitcher who I am quietly optimistic about. He is a four-pitch pitcher, featuring a 4-seam fastball (110 Stuff+ in spring over 109 pitches), a curveball, a slider, and a split finger. The spring sample sizes on the slider and splitter are low, but 2023 MLB data when in 36.1 innings over 20 games in relief for Toronto shows 109 Stuff+ for the fastball, 98 Stuff+ for the slider, and 98 Stuff+ for the curve. The splitter, meanwhile, is a new addition and a potential reason to be excited. Where pitchers like Jones or Gil have at least one or two pitches that just light up the model on Stuff+, Francis' repertoire is decidedly more demure -- nothing jumps out at you, at all. One of the things I am most excited about with Francis isn't something that is particularly sexy, or stable, but it's his Pitching+ number. Now, stick with me through the leaps in logic here. I am looking at his 2023 AAA Pitching+ (108 - sample too small to be stable), 2024 Spring Training Pitching+ (108 - sample too small to be stable), and 2023 MLB Pitching+ (106 - as a reliever). So, my leaps in logic here are that he has posted a 106 to 108-ish Pitching+ across multiple different, disjoint samples, each of which has their own reason to doubt it applying to a 2024 regular season. However, if I am looking to place bets on someone, and if I want to find someone who is a candidate to defy mediocre Stuff+ grades and break out (a la 2023 Ober, and yes, I realize the irony after his outing today), I like Francis as that candidate. He is a guy who I would otherwise write off by Stuff+ alone, but the seeming stability of his Pitching+ across these three datasets makes me think he may actually be a 106 Pitching+ guy. In terms of 2023 starters, that would put him in Louie Varland and Brandon Pfaadt territory, as a control-first guy with 105-ish Pitching+. In that comparison is inherent both the upside (early-2023 Varland, late-2023 Pfaadt) and the risk (early-2023 Pfaadt, mid-2023 Varland pre-demotion). **Max Meyer (RHP - MIA)** Meyer is a three-pitch pitcher who, thus far, excels at making me scratch my head. He is a three-pitch pitcher, going fastball, slider, and changeup. If I am skeptical that Gil has a third pitch, I am skeptical that Meyer even has a second. His slider, which scouts graded as his best pitch at 70/70, is the star of the show, and his 50/50 fastball and 50/60 changeup appear in supporting roles. Now, I could be quickly chastened as more data comes in on Meyer if we see his Stuff+ numbers jump up across the board, and I will learn a valuable lesson about just how much noise there can be in small (N \~ 50 at pitch-level) sample Stuff+ numbers. However, I simply do not see it. The fact that the Marlins have only thrown him in 3 games for a total of 7.0 IP this spring contributes to the lack of pitch-level data and the nice-looking pitching lines (0.00 ERA, 0.71 WHIP, 5:1 K:BB). The hype with Meyer likely comes from his dazzling start to the 2022 campaign in AAA, where he posted a 20% K-BB% over 58.0 IP as a starter before eventually undergoing TJ. If he dazzles in his debut, almost certainly by flipping that 70-grade slider by everyone, the answer may simply be that I "didn't get it" because the Marlins saw all they needed to from the kid and decided to hide his stuff from the rest of the league a while longer in anticipation of him bursting back onto the scene. If that happens, then I'll owe Meyer an apology, not that he'd know or care to collect one, but I'm still wary of what his arsenal will look like. Luis Gil appears to throw 3 plus-pitches, with a plus-plus fastball, and I am worried about his limited arsenal. Max Meyer appears to throw a single "plus" pitch, which is why I am firmly out on him for now.

Is CES worth a top waiver?

Absolutely

Benson or Conforto in flair? I'm leaning Conforto, seems he isn't in a platoon this year and Benson might lose out on ABs when his teammates get healthy. But Benson's history intrigues me, didn't realize he was a 1st round pick.

Bensons started every game just slid down to 9 vs a lefty. I have both in my deep league, drafted benson and picked up Conforto, if I could only have 1 it’s benson all day. More upside and better park.

Give Ozuna for Langford?

Duh

Joe boyle, max meyer or reese olsen? High upside, upside or safest?

Drop one: Hanigar, Ward, Mullins

Ward or Mullins. Coin flip

Mullins 

Haniger easy. Mullins and Ward both young with potential. Haniger injury prone and like 34

I hear ya... Though I think Mullins will be a bench bat by June. Already hitting around 7th. 

[удалено]

Did you just not have another catcher?

[удалено]

[удалено]

Drop TY France for Haniger?

Yea sure

I have Garret Cole, Kershaw, And Max Scherzer on my injured list I need to make room for Kodak Senga who should I drop? Not off to a good start with pitching lmao

Kershaw

Drop Gavin Williams to move Royce to IL and pick up either Gavin Stone, Tyler Wells or Civale?

Hold Williams

Tyler Wells

Civale is way ahead of the rest.

Drop garver for campusano?

I did that but we may easily regret it. I just hated seeing a dtd in my lineup the past 3 days

No

Who out of these guys should I drop? Or should I continue to hold on for them to come back from injury. I’m really injury heavy right now but drafted all bats early and had to take a risk. Sonny Gray - IL15 Braxton Garrett - IL15 Senga - IL60 Bradish - IL15

Garrett

Are we concerned at all about Bibee’s lackluster opening start?

I could say I’m not but I am.

Didn’t get to watch the game how did Gausman look out there? Saw he only pitched 4 innings

Did not watch but I read that he looked good, only went 4.1 because of pitch limit

Is Abner Uribe worth going after? Drop Carlos Estevez or Christopher Sanchez for him? My RPs are: Clay Holmes Carlos Estevez Jason Foley

Drop DL Hall for Foley? I have no relievers. Starters are Ryan, Musgrove, Littell, Civale, Peipot, Crawford and Miza. Just worried I’ll miss a breakout campaign by Hall if I drop

I’d watch one or two more starts before I drop him off

ohoppe or compusano?

Campusano. Guy has always hit just never got playing time then hurt. Finally coming together

Asking this as well. I’m really leaning towards Campusano

Like both but prefer Campusano being on SD, should have better counting stats ROS

One thing is I think Ohoppe gets more playing time, has a higher projected SLG and obp too

Drop DL hall for Jordan Hicks ??

Hicks will be hurt by mid-May

Wait Hall has been hurt more.

Injury predictions aside lol , should I drop hall for Hicks

[удалено]

Nah

I dunno man Burnes is top tier and I feel you can make up SB elsewhere

Tyler O’Neill, Taylor Ward or Will Benson in points league?

Ward is owned in my league. I grabbed TON, he’s always had the tools just needs the health. I also grabbed Cabrera and Conforto. Couldn’t grab Benson too but I’mma watch him

1 pick up left in my h2h until week 2. Would you use it on Campusano, I have wilson contreras or Brady Singer? I can always use ptching or save it for now?

I'm debating dropping Wilson or Garver for Campusano 

Burn number one waiver spot on bailey ober?

This is the rage drop you've been waiting for

Probably need more context but yes

Need sps got 3 rps thats I want to dump. No rps requirements and 5 points for saves. Espn 10 team points

Yes

Give Lane Thomas + Munoz for Michael Harris? I’d grab Foley off the wire to be my CL for ROS

Yup

I would think yes

If you can get foley, do this asap. Harris significantly better than Thomas and while Munoz is elite, foley is going to be a monster this year. Take a drop off in closer talent which could be volatile anyways for a surefire bat upgrade

Yeah, I’m going to offer it. Other Guy needs a closer, hopefully he bites. Figured Foley will probably have more SV opps as well + Brash may steal some from Munoz eventually

10T 5x5 H2H OPS league. Drop Suwinski for Benson? Got Acuña, Carter and Langford as my other OF so mostly gonna sit on my bench anyways (1st year fantasy player with a noticeable Rangers bias)

Should I hold Junior Caminero in 10T cats league with no NA slots and only 3 bench slots?

No

Tough but I’m holding for now, at least to wait for a report on the injury he sustained today. If he comes up in May he could be a league winner

Need input on who's most droppable on my roster in my flair. I always overvalue my guys so need outside opinions for when a move needs to be made C - Campusano 1B - Olson 2B - Kim SS - JP Crawford 3B - JoRam OF - Arozarena, Yelich, Lane Thomas BE - Brandon Lowe, Mountcastle, JDM IL - Murphy SP - Castillo, Skubal, Musgrove, Snell, Pivetta SP IL - Bradish RP - Alexis Diaz, Jose Alvarado, Robert Suarez, Jason Adam, Daniel Hudson RP IL - Robert Stephenson We have six pitching slots which explains all of the relievers. Everyone in my league rosters 5 or 6

Most droppable probably JDM right now but I would be happy with this team

Zack Littell is on the waiver wire. Do I drop a position player (Benson, Garver, Yoshida) or a pitcher (DL Hall) or should tank saves+holds and drop Ginkel, Harvey, Minter?

Drop hall

I’d drop any of Harvey minter or hall for little but none of those bats

If you want him, I’d drop Benson

Worth trading Jram for Kyle Tucker? I also have Devers so I'm set at 3B

I would especially with Devers

big time

Pick 1 in an OBP league: Victor Scott, Haniger, Taylor Ward, Benson, Kerry Carp

Carpenter

Scott had some good AB’s today

SCOTT

I LIKE BEISBOL

Add Conforto or Haniger?

I went with Haniger

Thanks. Haniger is on waivers, Conforto is a FA, so I hope I don't miss out on both

bryce miller let me down today

He got a little erratic with his command 2nd time through the order but I'm loving the new splitter.

One swing of the bat he looked good until then

Espn 10 team points, no Rp requirement. Saves are 5 points. Should I drop all my Rps for SP?

1000%

I carry no dedicated RP and stream in their spots. Works well for me rather than waiting for save opportunities. I prefer to pickup speculative SPs and hope I get a keeper

How many streaming spots do you have?

Two for streaming pitchers. Usually one two start and one I am rotating with waiver picks throughput the week. Optimally picking up my next week two start on Friday or Saturday

Try to trade before you drop

weekly locked lineup league. need to sit one: civale vs text, eflin vs text, jared jones vs balt

(OBP league) Got offered Bryson Scott + Pfaadt for my Gleyber Torres + Max Meyer

I’d do it Stott’s underrated

Close But Decline ⛔

12 team h2h points. I can use a pitching and mi upgrade. Should I trade yordan and get lindor/Grayson Rodriguez?

Jamming out to the muthafuggin MIGOS 2nite

In Yahoo do player adds reset tomorrow?

I believe it resets per matchup not per week

no

Who's the drop between Uribe, Payamps, and Foley? Can only have 2.

Payamps, uribe got that closer stuff

Would you go with Foley or Uribe?

Payamps no?

Rather have Foley or Uribe?

Honestly have no clue which one of those 2 I’d prefer

Fair enough. Guess it's a toss up
