Hey Grey – been a reader for years and a great track record to show for it so thanks!

For 2013 – Olt or Lawrie at 3B?

@Grey, everything hinges on Rolen, my goal is to get the greatest value and spending as little as possible.

One of the rules of the league is you can’t keep your three most expensive keepers, fortunately wright was the 5th highest.

Straily

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 05:58:28 +0000

Yeah, not great options… Wright would be the keeper unless you get Altuve…

@grey: who do you like better next week in a weekly roto? Straily @kc or Dempster @nyy and @tor?

Thanks.

@Grey, I got rizzo and marte for $4 each that I want to keep, Frazier, Bauer, Olt, Machado, Skaggs, Snider, and Belt are my other $4 options.

If I can acquire Altuve before the deadline, who is also a $4 keeper then it doesn’t matter. He will be my third choice.

This is my first go at auction keeper, playing in Awesomous Maximous league. Took over for an absent owner.

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:51:34 +0000

Ha! Yeah, Frazier’s okay for $4 but not in a mixed league… I could see keeping Wright for $27, but it would depend on your other options…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:50:52 +0000

Jay… Rasmus would be over Werth and Jay usually…

By: Steve

Steve — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:42:34 +0000

Need to fill a CF spot while Rasmus heals. Werth, Jay or Ruggiano? 12 team H2H, AVG + OBP…

And would you still have Rasmus over those guys?

By: Jack Full of Hangover

@Grey, I guess baragin is not the word, but considering the uncertainty of third base, it might be a nice value. I also have Frazier who I can keep for $4, but if Rolen does not retire then I’m screwed if i choose frazier. C’mon prayer triangle!

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:24:07 +0000

Yeah, Lynn and Reddick…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:23:47 +0000

Lynn and Reddick…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:23:09 +0000

Yeah, he’s around $35… $27 is no great bargain…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 03:22:38 +0000

I wouldn’t…

Whadduathink: My Rollins and Putz for any combo of Fiers/Lynn and Reddick/Victorino? Is that a win for me?

By: Jon

Jon — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:41:45 +0000

@Grey, no he doesn’t. It’s a keeper league. Would you give Rollins and Putz for either Fiers or Lynn plus one of Victorino/Reddick?

By: Jack Full of Hangover

Jack Full of Hangover — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:24:53 +0000

@Grey, 12 team with 3 bench spots, roto style. K’s for hitters is a cat. I figure he is a at least a $35-ish player, always a 1st-2nd rounder in the past and is the #3 third baseman in E$PN this year and number 3 in yahoo.

By: Steve

Steve — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:17:12 +0000

@Grey, I have Rollins. Would you trade J-Zimm to get him?

Would mean that my starters (after Greinke trade goes through) would be

Bum, Greinke – and then down to Norris, Cahill, Milone…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:15:01 +0000

Crawford

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:14:53 +0000

This guy doesn’t really have anything… Fiers and Lynn if it’s a keeper… Reddick and Victorino… Doesn’t really have much to choose from…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:13:03 +0000

That’s no bargain in 12 team mixed…. It’s just under what he’ll go for… In NL-Only, that’s great…

By: Grey

Grey — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 02:12:33 +0000

Depends on league size…

Asdrubal

@B.o.B, what stats do you need?

By: B.o.B

B.o.B — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 01:58:23 +0000

RoS…Crawford, Gordon, Morneau for Util spot

By: Jon

Jon — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 01:49:59 +0000

Owner is interested in my Rollins and Putz. He has these players on the trading block:

Aviles, H Bell, Betancourt, Brantley, Cahill, W-Y Chen, Fiers, Lynn, M Montero,
Reddick, J Santana, Victorino

Who do you ask for in return? I could use pitching mainly, or OF, but a MI who would be better than Kendrick or Espinosa ROS would be alright, too (to take Rollins’ place). Would Aviles be better than HK or DE?

new to the auction thing, is David Wright a deal for $27 next year?

By: Steve

Steve — Mon, 13 Aug 2012 01:14:28 +0000

Do you prefer Rollins or Asdrubal for the rest of the year? 12 team h2h, OBP as well as avg…
