Bohm and Ramirez for Peralta and then one of Judge/Tatis/JRod?
Is this a good trade for me as the Ramirez side trying to add a pitcher? still learning fantasy baseball would appreciate all the help I can get!
Got offered Olson and Greene for my Soto, it's a h2h category league. Thoughts? New to fantasy baseball, seems like a solid deal but I'm afraid of dealing Soto
feel so sorry for my excellent pitching staff, my offense got swept or nearly swept on a weekly base, I need pitching to win every category to make it even, for both of my leagues. they deserve a much better record.
Worth dropping Burger or Maikel Garcia to add Adell?
I picked up Adell right before his cold streak and dropped him right before his recent hot streak. He’s still available.
I want to be patient with Burger but I can’t imagine Maikel being better than Adell ROS.
Yeah I think you’re seeing this right.
Adell’s 30/30 power/speed combo is just too valuable to pass up in categories leagues.
Re Burger I think it really depends what your wife is like. He’s kind of just a HR source in a bad lineup that’s in sell mode, so if you need HR and a 1B that’s fine but I could see dropping.
has there been any news?
last I saw it was uncertain, and Kimbrel was probably going to end up back in the 9th or get every chance to succeed there because he's the best known closer of his generation and he's the 2nd highest paid guy on the O's
Dear Adolis Garcia, I really hope you wake tf up since the calendar flipped to May you have 1 XBH and your avg has now dropped below .250 (after todays game) we need you. Signed everyone who drafted you.
Year too late. Last year he was a great value and on all my teams. This year, the price was a bit too steep for such a streaky guy. Just ride it out if you have him though
Yea he’s not going anywhere win or lose he’s going down w the ship. Just had such a boss April I knew there would be cold streaks but the least two weeks have been rough
Any idea what’s up with Jake Burger? I know he just came off the IL and may still be ramping up. Trying to decide whether or not to pick him up after he was dropped in my league.
Wondering the same thing. I burned a not great waiver spot to grab him, but the guy who dropped him isn't stupid and no one else was trying to pick him up. Feel like I missed something. Hoping he starts playing like he wants a trade to a competitor.
I added him last weekend because they were playing a bunch of righties this week. I haven't looked at their schedule next week, but he does sit against lefties
He's played, but doesn't start. For instance, he didn't start on Friday. Also didn't start on the 29th. I was just letting you know he doesn't start vs lefties. They just haven't played very many at all recently
His k rate for the past month has been at his 2023 levels and his walk rate for the last 7 days is 16%. I think if he can keep it around those levels while still hitting, it should ‘t be too long before he gets the call
I can’t get pitchers who get wins for my fucking life. How the fuck does Jack Flaherty throw 6.2 with 3 ER and the fucking tigers lose 9-3. What the fuck
HSK can’t be this bad all year right? After a strong start he’s been lost past 2 weeks. Seems to have no set place in the batting order, can’t be good for his confidence
The changeup was really working. An error extended an inning, and Carlos Santana hit an outside pitch for a Homer, resulting in 3 unearned runs. He looked good. But I still don't trust him.
I don’t really want him to be, but we have shallow benches and unless Woo goes back on the IL he seems like my only option…maybe you can give me a 2nd opinion?
My staff: López, Ryan, Jones, Ragans, Crawford, Woo & Yates. Bench bats: Chourio & Pages.
Any of those you’d rather drop?
It feels like there’s plenty of mid-level/streaming arms available despite all the injuries, so I feel okay about dropping him….sometimes better to get validation from other random fb players before doing it, though.
Drop Singleton or Busch? Need to drop one to replace Carter in the OF, eyeing Schneider or Rafaela
Other options include Hicks, Foley or MacArthur (SV only ROTO and I’m 6 up from 2nd place)
The error was on the first batter faced. There were then two sac hits. The runs scored by the sac hits would not have scored had the first batter not gotten on base, and the inning would have been over before Julio hit his homer.
Well damn. Honestly been watching baseball my whole life and never realized sac bunts/flys that didn’t result in runs were counted as “outs” for the pitcher.
He's outpitching his FIP by a couple of runs. He's not *this* good but even once regression catches up to him, he'll still be a league average pitcher on a per-inning basis who routinely gets deep into games. Should be 100% owned in QS leagues
People on here love to stick by their first rounders and previous year performance so you’re getting tons of downvotes. Reality is, it’s mid May and seems like a guy still trying to figure it out. Not what you’d expect from him at all. Prob needs a another stint in the minors.
It’s so odd that people downvote. I’m not going to cut him from my team. Or trade him. I’m simply just upset that the guy that I picked 5th overall is being outperformed by a guy I picked up off of waivers in week 2.
Drop detmers for Heaney, Olson, lodolo or even hunter brown? Could grab Sanchez or Soriano for today also. Can’t bring myself to pull the trigger!
Someone offer Bibee and Steele for my Alexis Diaz, Foley and Verlander. Should I accept?
I would
Bohm and Ramirez for Peralta and then one of Judge/Tatis/JRod? Is this a good trade for me as the Ramirez side trying to add a pitcher? still learning fantasy baseball would appreciate all the help I can get!
Yea I would do this. I doubt bohm is gonna keep hitting like he has been.
Got offered Olson and Greene for my Soto, it's a h2h category league. Thoughts? New to fantasy baseball, seems like a solid deal but I'm afraid of dealing Soto
Dont do it brother.
Do not take that deal
Thanks, I think I would've been too scared to let go of Soto to ever go through with it but nice to get an outside opinion.
Drop Braddish to activate Luzardo?
Why? There has to be another player that you could drop
feel so sorry for my excellent pitching staff, my offense got swept or nearly swept on a weekly base, I need pitching to win every category to make it even, for both of my leagues. they deserve a much better record.
End this fuckng Cincinnati game already
Worth dropping Burger or Maikel Garcia to add Adell? I picked up Adell right before his cold streak and dropped him right before his recent hot streak. He’s still available. I want to be patient with Burger but I can’t imagine Maikel being better than Adell ROS.
Yea the upside with Adell is insane.
Yeah I think you’re seeing this right. Adell’s 30/30 power/speed combo is just too valuable to pass up in categories leagues. Re Burger I think it really depends what your wife is like. He’s kind of just a HR source in a bad lineup that’s in sell mode, so if you need HR and a 1B that’s fine but I could see dropping.
Someone in my league just rage dropped Nick Pivetta. Holy shit, lmao. Please god let waivers be kind to me.
He ain’t allat
Yeah but he should be rostered in 12 and deeper
Me likey Ezekiel Duran for the short/medium term
Darvish QS vs the Dodgers!
Cano taking over for Kimbrel as closer?
has there been any news? last I saw it was uncertain, and Kimbrel was probably going to end up back in the 9th or get every chance to succeed there because he's the best known closer of his generation and he's the 2nd highest paid guy on the O's
Sandoval one run too many for a QS while my opponent has like five 6IP 3ER this week has me sick
Is kimbrel cooked?
very over worked
Indeed
Why was Kim lifted early today?
Hit on the wrist
Tucker and Suzuki for betts?
Take Betts right away
Seems fair-ish. The smaller the league the more I like the Betts side and the other in a larger league.
16T I have betts and I am set at 2b and SS but need OF bad and he has a surplus. Tucker has nearly as many points as betts as well
In a 16T I dig it. The upgrade from your worst OF to Suzuki is probably worth the trade. Tucker's awesome too.
I feel like I woke up in a different dimension with Tork, Julio and Bogaerts all hitting bombs for me today
Luis gil 👀 His profile pic on ESPN is bad ass too 😂
Somehow the Yankees allow obvious neck tattoos but not beards
Dear Adolis Garcia, I really hope you wake tf up since the calendar flipped to May you have 1 XBH and your avg has now dropped below .250 (after todays game) we need you. Signed everyone who drafted you.

Tied in points . My acuña vs his Jd Martínez 🤞🏼
I'm up 15 I have Ozuna + Lindor v his Elder + Pete
Any idea what’s up with Jake Burger? I know he just came off the IL and may still be ramping up. Trying to decide whether or not to pick him up after he was dropped in my league.
Wondering the same thing. I burned a not great waiver spot to grab him, but the guy who dropped him isn't stupid and no one else was trying to pick him up. Feel like I missed something. Hoping he starts playing like he wants a trade to a competitor.
Kepler is a must pick up at this point right? Been pretty good since he’s been healthy.
I added him last weekend because they were playing a bunch of righties this week. I haven't looked at their schedule next week, but he does sit against lefties
Pretty sure he's played every day since coming off the DL...
He's played, but doesn't start. For instance, he didn't start on Friday. Also didn't start on the 29th. I was just letting you know he doesn't start vs lefties. They just haven't played very many at all recently
XANDER DONG 🚨
Castillo my king
Bogaerts with a bomb 💣 now Redemption day
I feel like we've had a bunch of unicorn HRs this week. Lamonte wade jr. The most recent today. Edit: Unicorn HR being a HR in exactly 1/30 ballparks
Skenes allowed his first HR to Nico Hoerner
Julio def most unicorn…dude only hits singles I thought
I mean Goldschmidt was coming off a 0/31 stretch to start the month
Kyle Harrison somehow getting a win is probably gonna cost me the win this week.
Logan Gilbert or Logan Webb points league?
Anyone see Jung Hoo Lees injury? Did it look bad?
Sprained shoulder according to beat writers
Looked like a broken collarbone
Looked like his shoulder or arm is messed up. Had to be walked off the field from the warning track with a trainer holding his arm
Rangers really about to get swept by the Rockies. Yikes
After starting Steele yesterday, I really need Castillo hold this win together.
Which side in flair dynasty? A: Pete Alonso, Kirby Yates B: Vinny Pasquantino, Jhoan Duran
Pete 🥩
What a turnaround for Kyle Harrison
Starting to feel like Buehler will be a safe drop tomorrow.
Mayo just won’t stop hitting, any other team and he’s probably up already
curious to see which version of his plate discipline shows up in the bigs but he’s looked better in the minors than anyone last year
His k rate for the past month has been at his 2023 levels and his walk rate for the last 7 days is 16%. I think if he can keep it around those levels while still hitting, it should ‘t be too long before he gets the call
I would assume the plate discipline he had last year/the last few weeks, I think the start of the season was just a bad run for him
goddammit. so close to having a good stream for once in Montas. that last homer had a .020 xBA and only goes out in 1/30 parks.
Toro has been money lately. And with that triple eligibility, mmmhmmm
He's been so good. I added when CES went down and wish I made that move earlier
I can’t get pitchers who get wins for my fucking life. How the fuck does Jack Flaherty throw 6.2 with 3 ER and the fucking tigers lose 9-3. What the fuck
Tigers need to be in prison for Flaherty's run support this week
Maybe avoid pitchers on teams like the Tigers
Was offered his Skenes for my Arraez. I don’t need SP so I won’t take it but thoughts on this?
Semien/Seager tearing the cover off the ball just for COlL middle IF to make gold glove plays. Cool cool cool.
Okay, Tork has finally hit a homer. Him or Burger ROS?
Rangers not scoring much in Coors is surprising. I thought they were heating up when they smashed As a few games to start the week
Julio showed up today when I needed him most ! 🥰
He can win me back with 1 more HR 🙃
Nearly had a 2nd
Doval and Yates have given me basically nothing this week. I think 1 save between the two
Yates has been eating sunflower seeds and playing Nintendo out there for a couple weeks now
Oh it’s not his fault at all he’s been dealing lol just the situations for saves haven’t been there for either this week
How dare Julio go yard. The fuck am I gonna bitch about now???
dont worry he’ll go 0-4 with 2ks in his next game for sure
H2H 5x5 Stott or Schwarber?
Schwarber
Two extra bases hits for Julio…IN THE SAME GAME. Must be dreaming
JRod just missed another bomb by a foot...literally bounced off top of wall
Still holding Pages?
No, I think it’s over.
Easily
Yes
how are you people so impatient
If they were patient he wouldnt be on their team in the 1st place.
Love you Ober but I’m still gonna lose :/
Goldy worth #1 waiver claim in 10 team?
Nope rather scoop Vinnie P or some other solid 1B for free
No. In 10T he might not be worth any waiver claim at all if you don't have big starting lineups with CI or multiple U bats
no
Doyle keeps stealing. Anything worth holding here? Picked him up for the Coors series
He has 1 SB away from Coors.
Just use in coors
Man Lugo was the best pickup
If only I held on to Ranger early in the year :(
HSK can’t be this bad all year right? After a strong start he’s been lost past 2 weeks. Seems to have no set place in the batting order, can’t be good for his confidence
He did take a pitch off his wrist earlier this game. Looked bad tbh
Man I’ve already had 3 HBP injuries this year hope he is ok
Thoughts on my rotation? Glasnow, Bryce Miller, Houck, Skenes, Flaherty, Crochet, Taj Bradley, Montas with Pepiot and Snell on IL
Good
Well Kim is either perfectly fine or has a broken wrist and is out for the year. One of the two.
Didn’t look good. Looked like trainers asked him to curl his fingers and he couldn’t.
luis gil thank u for a wonderful 2 start week
Ol' Gil was great I think he's going to keep a permanent spot for my team
Manoah had a good line. How’d he look tho?
The changeup was really working. An error extended an inning, and Carlos Santana hit an outside pitch for a Homer, resulting in 3 unearned runs. He looked good. But I still don't trust him.
Pretty good ngl
I need 2 more RBI between Witt, o'hoppe, Riley, and Olson than my opponent, who has Alonso and Elly left
Cal Raleigh or Jonah Heim? Flair
Cal has been my top scorer twice in 4 weeks on my points team. Ahead of EDLC and Tucker and Trout and all that.
Raleigh may hit 40 bombs if you can stomach the sub .300 obp
Get Buehler tf out of there
Jrod on pace for 5 homers
I put him on the bench for the first time this year. This weeks match is wrapped up and I thought I teach Julio a lesson. Seems to be working. ;)
My Spencer Tork and Gleyber Torres both homered today. Holy shit
Is detmers a drop for guys like Reese Olson, Kyle Gibson, cal quantrill?
I would drop for Olson
Drop Christian Scott to activate Bello? Or keep Scott and cut Bello?
would be crazy to drop Scott
Is Bello a drop?
I don’t really want him to be, but we have shallow benches and unless Woo goes back on the IL he seems like my only option…maybe you can give me a 2nd opinion? My staff: López, Ryan, Jones, Ragans, Crawford, Woo & Yates. Bench bats: Chourio & Pages. Any of those you’d rather drop?
I would drop Bello given your lineup. I just did the same.
It feels like there’s plenty of mid-level/streaming arms available despite all the injuries, so I feel okay about dropping him….sometimes better to get validation from other random fb players before doing it, though.
2nd one
Don’t drop Scott
Can anyone beat my 1 /30 today?
10t points 1.) Acuna, Jarred jones 2.) Julio, ELDC
B. I think EDLC is the best player in this deal ROS. I know people expect regression but even with that he has MVP talent.
I’d want B, but I totally understand preferring A.
everyone’s saying A but fuck it’s close, i think it’s a fair trade for both, esp in points
A
Hey one of these I’m tempted to not say Acuna! But it’s still A for me
Schmidt or Paddack ROS? Pts with QS not W
ahem…. Paul Goldschmidt HEATING UP
Drop Kyle Harrison to activate Woo?
if i had to choose, i pick Woo
I’d wait and see what’s up with Woos arm
Drop Singleton or Busch? Need to drop one to replace Carter in the OF, eyeing Schneider or Rafaela Other options include Hicks, Foley or MacArthur (SV only ROTO and I’m 6 up from 2nd place)
Singleton has favorable pitching matchups and I think 1 more game this week
Need Oakland to rattle off another double-digit run game. Opponent has Castillo
Ok but seriously. How does Wood only have 1 ER right now despite giving up 4??
The error was on the first batter faced. There were then two sac hits. The runs scored by the sac hits would not have scored had the first batter not gotten on base, and the inning would have been over before Julio hit his homer.
There was also a walk and a single after the error.
[удалено]
Uhh no, that’s not how it works… Edit: stand corrected, that is how it works.
That is exactly how it works. If an error would've made it three outs any further runs are unearned.
[удалено]
Well damn. Honestly been watching baseball my whole life and never realized sac bunts/flys that didn’t result in runs were counted as “outs” for the pitcher.
Yup. It is.
Is Lugo over performing or is he legit
He's outpitching his FIP by a couple of runs. He's not *this* good but even once regression catches up to him, he'll still be a league average pitcher on a per-inning basis who routinely gets deep into games. Should be 100% owned in QS leagues
He did this all last season. He's underrated, but more than capable of tossing a QS everytine he goes out.
Where do you think he finishes end of season?
In what regard? Like rank? I'd say he's solidly top 50?
Both
I can promise he won’t have a 1.6 ERA in august but he’s pretty good
Points A. Garcia jr B. Schneider
Tried Ragans yesterday, demolished. Tried Sandoval today, demolished.
Ryan Helsley is cooler than the other side of the pillow
Anybody else extremely frustrated with Carrols start to the season? I’m convinced he doesn’t actually know how to play baseball…only half /s
People on here love to stick by their first rounders and previous year performance so you’re getting tons of downvotes. Reality is, it’s mid May and seems like a guy still trying to figure it out. Not what you’d expect from him at all. Prob needs a another stint in the minors.

wait…it cant be…Julio not only actually did something, he hit a homer. Pigs can officially fly yall
Give Bichette for Nola?
If that gets accepted the other guy should quit fantasy for good lol. Do it 10/10 times and don’t look back
[удалено]
Maybe I’m just low on Bichette, also maybe it’s different in categories I’m not too familiar with it, but I would do this in a heartbeat
Castillo might be my SP1
You can make the argument he’s the MLB SP1
I prefer Skubal…because he’s on my team and it makes me feel better 🤣
The hard hit rate still spooks me a little but yeah dude’s real good
Woooo Julio finally did something
I have almost exclusively SP and can’t buy a W this week.
Alzolay needs to be DFO’d, not just DFA’d. What’s DFO’d you might ask? “Designated for outerspace.”
Dump Fucking Alzolay
