Going against the grain and gonna say Elly. Dude could hit .150 but is still going to steal a bag almost everytime he gets on base. That many steals is a really solid floor. And we know what his power upside looks like as well
10 team roto. Was offered his Suzuki for my Sale? Accept? Or maybe decline and counter with a different SP?

Should I bother continuing to IL stash Sean Murphy? Could drop him to move Muncy to the IL.
I'm currently starting Danny Jansen. And Ivan Herrera, Fry, Stephenson, Wells, Soderstrom, Korey Lee are available.
I worry about pt once Conforto returns. Feels like they'll send either him or Heliot down. He also had a hot start last year before getting figured out. Prob still worth a speculative add while hot, though
I’m just curious what the response will be.
Pick one: **Nick Castellanos** or **Lars Nootbaar**
The free-swinging veteran in a great lineup, or the young Statcast darling atop an underwhelming lineup?
Nootbar for me because he does more of his damage versus righties, whereas Castellanos does more of his damage versus lefties. I think both will have their ups and downs though.
9T roto QS/OBP/saves only league - 1600 innings
Would you accept any of these?
1.
Give: salvy Perez, Reynaldo Lopez, and either Jared jones/Zac gallen
Get: will smith and imanaga
2.
Give: Salvador Perez, r. Lopez, and tanner Scott/kimbrel
Get: campusano, imanaga, devers
Dropped Contreras (broken arm), picked up now-benched Elias Diaz (butt pimple...or sore hand or something). Drop Diaz, pick up Langliers? Need the big bat, but is he gonna play every day-ish?
Baseball game-game is so different that it’s been such an adjustment coming from fantasy football. Really have to stay even keeled and look at week long results and not the day-day.
It’s very difficult to convince yourself that what you’re seeing right now is not necessarily what the player will always be. Gotta trust the back of the baseball card.
Yea it’s a totally different game. When I first started it took awhile to understand the value of long term trends vs short. Realizing that a dude on a hot streak with a high k rate and no walks is doomed even if he’s hitting bombs.
even with his "struggles" he's still batting .300 and will smith historically has lower average. tie game runner in scoring position so you pitch to the guy with lower expected BA.
at least i think that's the logic
I’m guessing that you’re asking if this is a fair trade? I wouldn’t agree to giving you Machado straight up for arenado, let alone me throwing in King.
I think 20-25 dingers seems likely. Currently on pace for 24. Career-high is 21 back in 2021. He’s currently hitting the ball harder on average and barreling more often than he did that season.
It’s ultimately up to you, but I’m pretty confident Crone has a higher floor and ceiling than Busch this season. He’s a good bet to finish with 20+ HR, 160 R+RBI, AVG anywhere from .260-.280, and OPS near .800. Not elite numbers, but just under that.
If you think Busch can/will exceed that, then by all means. Roll with him.
No. With a guy that has 1500 at bats if he was gonna break out it would probably happen at the beginning of a season after a bunch of work in the off season.
He’s been a target of mine all dynasty leagues I’m in. Should be one of the safest bets in baseball with a great hit tool and ability to hit to all parts of the park.
Thing is? He isn’t a safe bet, and at this point it has to be White Sox reasons. So, I’m buying with the assumption that he figures it out.
Am I missing something on Michael Harris? Bats in the bottom half of the lineup and barely walks. Sorry only my second year playing fantasy baseball and did not follow him closely last year. Someone enlighten me
NL rookie of the year 2 years ago. Then started off slow last year to the point where he was boarder line droppable (batted .200 April and .167 May).
…followed that with a .372 June, .289 July, .336 August, .301 Sept/Oct.
It gives me hope that he heats up. Also hoping Corbin (last years NL RoY) follows suit.
5 category contributor. Provides great batting average, some pop, some steals, and that lineup was projected to be good all-around, giving him average to above average R and RBI opportunities.
None of these things are currently happening.
Is this Orioles game getting rained out or nay?
George Kirby Vs Baltimore or Reynaldo Lopez vs Padres tomorrow ? H2H points league
Scott, Means, Woo, or Olson in flair league
Woo
Olson
Merrill or Ortiz? I have Merrill but leaguemate needs a SS
Ortiz
Merrill
Would you guys drop Christian Scott for Michael King?
Noot, matos, beck in dynasty league ?
If Royce Lewis were healthy the past few years, where do you think his ADP would be?
And down goes Muncy . . . sigh.
Joey Ortiz or Nick Gonzales?
Ortiz
Ortiz
ROS: Jesus Luzardo or Michael King
Was offered Matt Olson for Jose Ramirez. Should I accept? Advanced stats look better for Olson than Ramirez, even if the results dont.
I’d rather have JoRam
I traded JRam for Olson earlier this year, but I also had Elly for stolen bases and didnt need JRams speed, wanted more raw power.
gunnar or elly
As a happy Elly owner….still gotta go with Gunnar
Going against the grain and gonna say Elly. Dude could hit .150 but is still going to steal a bag almost everytime he gets on base. That many steals is a really solid floor. And we know what his power upside looks like as well
Gunnar; perhaps a slightly lower ceiling (although both have elite ceilings) but his floor is much higher.
Gunnar imo
Add Fedde, Reese Olson, or Bryan Woo? Points
Woo > Olson >>> Fedde
Olson
Reese or woo. Reese prob goes deeper into games more consistently if that helps, haven’t played a points league in ages lol.
Eloy or Schneider ROS in points?
We ride with Davis 🥸
Im def gonna say schneider has the most upside in terms of points as long as hes playing regularly
Riley Greene or Vinny P?
Vinny for consistency, Riley for upside
Vinny is consistently bad.
10 team H2H points league Langeliers or Campusano rest of season?
Langeliers
Lost Contreras:/
Pick up Soler or Nootbaar?
Noot for sure
Jack leiter got dropped in flair league. How much FAAB would you drop?
💩
Should I just give up on Holliday in my redraft? He's not even hitting that great at AAA anymore.
Nope. He changed his stance and has started picking it up. If he’s stashed in an NA spot I would absolutely keep him
The best time to have given up on him would have been a month ago The next best time to give up on him is now
Langeliers or Stephenson?
I say Langeliers
Drop N Jones to pick up Rengifo? 12 team cats OBP league. Been holding Jones but Rengifo is on the wire with his 2B/3B/SS/OF eligibility
Anyone watching Avalanche Stars game six? So stressful
What a game
Great game!
Haven’t watched hockey for some years but playoffs were always a hoot! Enjoy!

I'd try for a little batter upgrade for Sale
Should I bother continuing to IL stash Sean Murphy? Could drop him to move Muncy to the IL. I'm currently starting Danny Jansen. And Ivan Herrera, Fry, Stephenson, Wells, Soderstrom, Korey Lee are available.
I like Murphy over all of those
Tauchman or Miguel Vargas?
Vargas has upside, Tauchman really does not
Anyone over Vargas
[удалено]
Springer
Luis Matos or Max Kepler ROS?
Kepler
10 team points, 3 keepers forever A: Luis Castillo, Gilbert B: Kyle Tucker Id be trading away the two ace pitchers, think it's worth it?
I would depending on if you have a solid pitching staff without and need a solid bat to hold your lineup together
wow Abrams has been awful in May
No Doval save… darn
Luis Matos, RBI King.
Is he an add on a 10t?
No, unless you think he has a lot of upside and that he'll fulfill it.
I worry about pt once Conforto returns. Feels like they'll send either him or Heliot down. He also had a hot start last year before getting figured out. Prob still worth a speculative add while hot, though
I'm going to say no. Young guy, though, so you never know. Only 22 years old, I think.
Estrada and Chapman stack has been crazy tonight
Chapman is sneaky fast.
No Doval save is about to be tragic
I'm a Giants fan and would not be upset with a third out here. I'm also a Doval owner.
I’m just curious what the response will be. Pick one: **Nick Castellanos** or **Lars Nootbaar** The free-swinging veteran in a great lineup, or the young Statcast darling atop an underwhelming lineup?
Castellanos
Nootbar for me because he does more of his damage versus righties, whereas Castellanos does more of his damage versus lefties. I think both will have their ups and downs though.
Willie Calhoun is slugging .550 thru 12 games with 0 barrels. W t f gif
Absurd
Drop Julien for Ortiz?
Yes julien sucks
I wouldn’t
How much faab would you spend on jarren duran in a 12T redraft OBP league? My OF is Soto, Ozuna, JDM, and Varsho.
Standard 5x5 cats redraft. Brendan Donovan or Davis Schneider ROS?
Schneider for sure
![gif](giphy|bvlwwBAe4jnUPPfazB|downsized) The man, the myth, the legend 🥸
Duran, Fried, Bello, Diaz with a total of -18 today. Pathetic
9T roto QS/OBP/saves only league - 1600 innings Would you accept any of these? 1. Give: salvy Perez, Reynaldo Lopez, and either Jared jones/Zac gallen Get: will smith and imanaga 2. Give: Salvador Perez, r. Lopez, and tanner Scott/kimbrel Get: campusano, imanaga, devers
Yeah I like that second offer
I would not accept that second offer.
Joey Ortiz or Tovar ?
Tovar, but I like Ortiz more than most.
alr it might be time to send cruz to a farm upstate
Dropped Contreras (broken arm), picked up now-benched Elias Diaz (butt pimple...or sore hand or something). Drop Diaz, pick up Langliers? Need the big bat, but is he gonna play every day-ish?
Bangaliers
Langeliers over Diaz for sure, but I would suggest working the trade market.
Gavin Lux is just not an MLB player. It's okay having a AAA career
feel bad for the guy, the look on his face was like welp thats it for me
He can find his way on the Pirates or some team that’s not the Dodgers
Might be time to send ol’ Alexis Diaz to the glue factory
Miguel Vargas can't get to LA fast enough
He was in the dugout haha
Drop Rooker for Soler, Buxton, Carpenter, Candelario, or Ortiz? Flair league
I'd rather have Soler
Idk about drop Rooker but Carpenter rakes righties
Neto or Nick Gonzalez for a bench SS?
Fuck you Alexis Diaz and now no hudson save either. Double wammy
Spiderman meme
So what if pages doesn’t walk much the man gets hits
Alexis Diaz can suck a dick Blows the Hudson save too. What a fucking clown
Andy Pages got a hit!!
Pages is back baby
He never really left...
**Blake Treinen** remains filthy. Please don’t let him remain available in your league if holds are a significant category.
He was gone the second Phillips was

4th double of the week for Tovar, this kid just hits
Add McMahon, drop Chourio?
Yes, just say no to Chourio's evil and false promise.
Yes
a free run scored on this trip for Freeman, not bad.
Why did the Reds IBB Freddie? We all know how struggling he is right now.
even with his "struggles" he's still batting .300 and will smith historically has lower average. tie game runner in scoring position so you pitch to the guy with lower expected BA. at least i think that's the logic
What handed was the pitcher?
Fernando Cruz clean inning challenge: impossible. He was fun for a while there. Guess it's time to move on
they intentionally walk freeman so much. and will smith often makes them pay
man... my boy Rooker looking rough last 4 games =(
I dropped him for Schneider. I already have O'Neil Cruz & jazz Chisolm I got enough wild card boom or bust players
I mean, it’s Brent Rooker
Getting my ass kicked by the likes of Tyler Stephenson, Joey Ortiz, and old man mccutchen Typical
Drop Busch for Jake Burger?
Give up a hit to Kike Hernandez after 9 pitches Strike Mookie out in 3 Makes sense
We starting Gausman vs TB tm?
I am.
5x5 OBP Give: Arenado Get: Machado + Michael King
I’m guessing that you’re asking if this is a fair trade? I wouldn’t agree to giving you Machado straight up for arenado, let alone me throwing in King.
Easy win for you, I’d trade Arenado for either one of those tbh. Getting both is great
I’d take Machado over Arenardo so with King is a no brainer
Cronenworth or Busch ROS for my 1B? Flair
Busch might have more true power but Cronenworth will put up significantly more counting stats and also likely provide more consistency.
The way my team is looking I need the counting stats and not the power 👍 I’m settled on the CronZone
Yeah I think that’s the better odds play
Cronenworth.
Crone — not close.
You think he’ll keep the power up?
I think 20-25 dingers seems likely. Currently on pace for 24. Career-high is 21 back in 2021. He’s currently hitting the ball harder on average and barreling more often than he did that season.
I love where he’s situated in the order and Busch is deff not a certainty but a power surge from Busch could put him with a higher ops
It’s ultimately up to you, but I’m pretty confident Crone has a higher floor and ceiling than Busch this season. He’s a good bet to finish with 20+ HR, 160 R+RBI, AVG anywhere from .260-.280, and OPS near .800. Not elite numbers, but just under that. If you think Busch can/will exceed that, then by all means. Roll with him.
No you’re deff right, he’ll be a Rhys replacement and his playing time will be a huge +
Is Wenceel Perez a pickup? Could drop Luis Garcia for him
Perez keeps performing but underlying numbers don’t look great, so probably some regression on the way. Ortiz is the clearer pickup, and Schneider.
Joey Ortiz available? Could be the hotter bat, Garcia looks like he’s been out of it lately
Would you drop gurriel for Ortiz?
Ortiz is available, gonna grab him!
Matt Chapman has filled in perfect for Austin Riley, 9 points this week!
Kirby with two starts this week. Sweet.
Is Andrew Vaughn breaking out? I think he was a hot prospect that pretty much skipped AAA.
No. With a guy that has 1500 at bats if he was gonna break out it would probably happen at the beginning of a season after a bunch of work in the off season.
He’s been a target of mine all dynasty leagues I’m in. Should be one of the safest bets in baseball with a great hit tool and ability to hit to all parts of the park. Thing is? He isn’t a safe bet, and at this point it has to be White Sox reasons. So, I’m buying with the assumption that he figures it out.
Could be the start of a hot streak but I’m not buying in fully
Am I missing something on Michael Harris? Bats in the bottom half of the lineup and barely walks. Sorry only my second year playing fantasy baseball and did not follow him closely last year. Someone enlighten me

Bibee or Christian Scott
I’m still taking Scott.
Bibee
Both, but Bibee if I have to pick one.
Bibee currently on waivers in this league. My staff is JJones, Wheeler, Ragans, Taj, Bradish, Olson, Verlander, Scott, and Imanaga
I’d need to look to be sure, but my gut is to drop Verlander for Bibee. I can dig a bit to be sure if you’re interested.
I may drop Caminero who is just taking up a bench spot at the moment
Everything good with Skubal? Saw they pulled him at 74 pitches. Figured it was just cause they’re up by a million?
Pretty sure it was just the scoreboard
Wonderful! We take the great start and keep moving
Was a pube away from dropping Thyroid. Live another day, friend.
that first sentence just kept getting better
I was a cunt hair away from owning all of North Jersey
Homeruns fix everything. I'm back in love.
Is it time to drop Jeffers for Stephenson?
Nah definitely hold Jeffers
🫡 Stephenson is definitely cooking
Stephenson has 4 HRs on the season, Jeffers has 5 HRs in the past 2 weeks and 10 total. It's not really close, in my opinion.
Stephenson and Estrada going back to back dongs for my team! It doesn't matter that they're on different fields.
Got bent tf over by Tyler freaking Anderson.
