A Duvall hasn’t looked this good since Popeye starring Robin Williams. You thought I was going Robert Duvall and I steered it into Crazytown with Shelley Duvall. By the way, don’t look at current pictures of Shelley Duvall. She’s a Shelley of her former self. I have a theory. She had to do everything just so for Kubrick in The Shining, to the point where she couldn’t even think for herself, then she started working with Robert Altman, who was like, “Do whatever you like, improv,” and going from one extreme to the other drove her crazy. I’d put money on it that this is the biggest update on Shelley Duvall you will ever get on a fantasy baseball website. Any hoo! The pros and consigliere for Adam Duvall. All he does is hit home runs, so a great supporting player that just melts into any role you need him in. Wait, that’s not Adam. Well, not entirely. The homers part was. And the Mac Sledge part. No, that’s the other Duvall again. You’d be hard-pressed to find a hotter hitter right now than Duvall and he can help The Family go legit. Again, wrong Duvall! Anyway, here’s some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:
BUY
Travis d’Arnaud – Le Terminator has come from the future to stop you from owning bad catchers, and to hit home runs with Linda Hamilton in her trailer while James Cameron is yelling at the craft services lady.
Renato Nunez – I won’t bother linking to the Player Rater and saying how Renato has been better than players like Paul DeJong, Christian Walker and Eric Hosmer. Won’t do it. Sorry.
Danny Santana – By the time this posts, he might finally be owned in more than 50% of leagues, but, since he’s even near the threshold, I’m gonna list Dannys Antana anyway, just to point out how ludicrous you people are weighing me down that it feels like Altuve hanging from my necklace. Wait, that’s Ludacris.
Matt Thaiss – Serious question, did Rod Stewart predict Thaiss’s hot streak back in the 70’s with the song, Hot Thaiss? Or am I misremembering?
Bo Bichette – No one loves Boba Chette more than me. Okay, I lied. Teenaged Asian girls do, but they can drink 1,400 pounds of tapioca balls and cosplay at work. We all can’t be so lucky! Boba Chette should prolly be owned in 100% leagues already, and I considered making him the lede this week, but did you really want to read 450 words on Star Wars that was coming out of the bottom of your screen to an elaborately composed score? Damn, that does sound good. Bichette is likely just a 7/12/.265 hitter (for this year), but the Jays have moved him to leadoff and I love upside. And boba. Slup, slurp, snitches!
Tommy Edman – Since in my mind, I just went from Boba to Edamame, I think I might need a snack before finishing this post. *lowers goggles, dives into kiddie pool of Cocoa Pebbles and milk* Hey, how’d I become a contestant on Double Dare?
Travis Shaw – With the trade of Jesus (blasphemy!), Shaw could see some looks at 1st base, and he was my preseason MVP pick. I will now cackle-cry for 10 minutes. Also, I guess I can mention that Jesus Aguilar might be worth a look to see if the demotion of Lowe was smart (unlikely).
Miguel Sano – This is neither here nor there, but I found this interesting. Sano is owned in 30% of leagues and has been good for a few weeks. Josh VanMeter is already owned in 50+% of leagues and was good for about three days.
Johan Camargo – Just excited to finally see Camargo get some swings, which is different than Wade Boggs wanting to see Camargoadams and some wings.
Brian Anderson – Always wanted to do a sociology study on whether people are less likely to pick up a player if the player has a boring name like Brian Anderson. Too bad sociologists are all busy with the high-paying jobs of pretending to be homeless for sociology studies.
Tesocar Hernandez – I own Teoscar in a shallow league, because he’s facing the Orioles and their pitching–Excuse me, Steve Wilkerson did look decent on the mound. I bet the Hittertron likes Teoscar too like it enjoys long walks on the beach so it can get rust in its cracks and feel that auburn tingle.
Oscar Mercado – Been saying to pick him up since June. Y’all’s reaction times are like that of a slug. Escargetgoing! You can have that, Highlights Magazine, if you want it.
Trent Grisham – Prospect Mike just gave you his Trent Grisham fantasy. It was written in a courtroom where Matthew McConaughey played an almost credible attorney.
Ender Inciarte – Does everyone have favorite players that they like for irrational reasons? I’m not saying your true favorite player, like Trout or Scherzer. I mean, a guy you irrationally love more than you should. Ender’s mine. I think I like him so much because his last name seems complicated to pronounce and I can’t pronounce anyone’s name, yet I can say Inciarte. I told you it was irrational. Right now, there are actual rational reasons to like him too.
Willie Calhoun – Even though he has a clear path to playing time, I still think the Rangers are going to pull the rug out from under him and that rug ties the room together!
Dylan Bundy – Can’t believe I’m recommending an Orioles starter. I got me crackers in me head and it’s causing me to talk like a leprechaun! However, Bundy is a Streamonator call like the call it makes to homes in the Friendship neighborhood of Pittsburgh.
Drew Smyly – This is also a Streamonator call. “Hi, I’m calling for a friend. No, I’m not calling for someone else, I’m calling to request an actual friend.”
Archie Bradley – Member those days when managers would say so-and-so was the closer? That rarely happens anymore. I blame Kevin Cash. He made The Opener a thing, and teams were like, “If he’s not naming starters, I’m not naming closers, so there.” Do I think Bradley has the stuff to close? Yes. Do I think he’s absolutely the closer? I don’t have a Colonel Mustard. Sorry, shouldn’t have used this thesaurus for the word ‘clue.’ Also, since when did Hasbro start publishing thesauruses?
Justin Shafer – I love Shafer and think he could be the best became-a-closer-at-the-deadline closer. Was a closer in the minors; Giles has been dealing with arm issues for a while now, the Jays have no one else after Shafer that’s remotely worth trying as a closer.
Joe Jimenez – His 12.6 K/9 is gorge. His career 5.75 ERA in 123 2/3 IP is, well, something.
Jose Leclerc – As I get further into this shizzshow we call SAGNOF after the trading deadline, I’m starting to think I should’ve ranked the closers in this post. Or did I?! Damn, Reversal Question, you scared the crap out of me. Honestly, by the end of tonight’s games, the closer order might change. These last three closers are closers in name only and they’re not closers. You furrow your brow and, “Huh?” You follow, don’t be coy with your brows!
Anthony Bass – The M’s bullpen cologne, “Perfect when you have that sweet reek of desperation for saves.” Austin Adams could return soon and take the job and get maybe three saves.
Jose Quijada – This guy has a very closer-ish name. It’s Spanish for Joe Agita. What is more closer than that?
SELL
Ramon Laureano – We’re past the trade deadline, so now the Sells are not Sells as much as they are drops. They are still over 50% owned in ESPN. It’s ye olde cutoff! If you still have a trade deadline in the future… *wavy lines* Whoa, we’re in the future and this is a trade deadline in my fantasy league. *wavy lines* …that sounds like the worst vision of the future ever, but you can use the Fantasy Baseball Trade Analyzer. As for Laureano, we had a good run, but now he can’t run, so lose him.
Khris Davis – Maybe I’m reverse jinxing him here, but Davis has been miserable for the entire season. Let’s just compare Renato Nunez to Khris Davis from April 2nd until now. This is gonna be fun for Khris Davis owners! Khris Davis has 12 HRs since April 2nd and has one homer in July. Khris Davis only has 13 homers hit in this hemisphere. Since April 2nd, Renato has 24 homers. On the Player Rater, available for free at Razzball, assuming it’s free for you to click a link and the calories you expend are free, which they’re not, so HOW FREE IS IT?! Renato has been worth about the same as Rhys Hoskins this year, 15th overall 1st baseman. Khris Davis has been worth about the same as Pedro Severino and 300th overall. In case you’re just waking from a coma, “Hey, boo, your hair’s a mess. Also, Luis Severino did not change his name to Pedro Severino, and 300 overall is not good, so therefore, ergo, vis a vie, Davis has been a turd bucket.” If you can still make trades, try to move him. Would I give him for a free plane ticket if it meant sitting next to Kamala The Ugandan Giant? Yes, actually, where are we going, homeboy? If not, drop him.
first!
OMG my prediction of Travis Shaw making the BUY column 2 months ago has been fulfilled! All aboard the Travis Shaw train! Choo Choo!
Haha
How come Jarlin the Marlin didn’t make the list with Quijada? Closermonkey thinks it’s Jarlin
Thought long and hard for a few minutes, I’m guessing Quijada now, but it could be Jarlin — could be neither, might be Tayron
Hurts to see Laureano as a sell/drop, but makes perfect sense. However, my league is keeper and I thought he may be part of my team for next season (up to 15 players). Do you have any idea around where would you rank him for next year?
And second question is how would you rank (keepers) out of Laureano, Super Mercado and Victor Robles.
Thanks.
Prolly around 90-110
Mercado, Laureano, but depends on early talk about lineup placement, and how each ends this year
Hey Grey. After some moves throughout the year I surprisingly have the best group of closers I’ve ever had in Osuna, Yates, Greene, and Giles. Is it crazy to think of dropping Giles for a streamer spot? I have no other drop candidates at present.
Also Yastremski or Tauchman ROS as my sole bench spot?
I could see losing Giles…Tauchman
Rank ROS roto
Matz, Roark, Perez, Aaron Sanchez, Disco, Barria, VV, Quantrill
Roark, Matz
Grey,
I have Gleyber (2b/ss) and Moustakas (2b/3b) at SS and 2nd, respectively. I have Bo Bichette and Amed Rosario sharing Utility right now. Bichette leading off so I’m starting him. What to do for ROS? Sit Moustakas and play all young dudes? Trade one of the four for pitching? Obv Gleyber and Moose ring back most value.
Trade for pitching… Move Moose 1st
Any love for Griffin canning 12%owned on ESPN?
Not really, based on matchups he’s ok
12?! 59% on CBS
Haha
ESPN def has tons of inactive leagues
Would you start both Rey-Lo and Smyly in Philly in a H2H points league?
Yup
Thoughts on Tyler Alexander stream @ TEX? He’s a lefty, and the rangers hit poorly against them. Thx duder!
I wouldn’t
Hey Grey,
Great write up!!
I was offered the following trade:
His players: Judge and Brad Hand
My players: Gallen and Conforto
in a 10 team redraft h2h league, standard 5×5 category. Here is my team for reference. Is the trade close? I don’t want the other managers getting too pissed off if it’s not (they are vocal).
C: Grandal
1B: Rizzo
2B: Dannys Antana
3B: Baez
SS: Story
CI: Kingery
MI: Lourdes Gurriel
OF: Soto, Conforto, Acuna, Domingo
UTIL: Olson, Ohtani
Bench: Franmil
DL: Voit, Adalberto Mondesi
SP: Cole, Clevinger, Giolito, Caleb Smith, Gallen, Yarbrough, Lucchesi, Chirinos
RP: Iglesias, Workman, Bass, Bradley, Jarlin the Marlin Garcia
DL: Kelley
Thanks!!
I’d take Judge, it’s close enough
Hey Grey,
Greetings from Pennsylvania in these United States. Night is day, day is night!
Great Buy-Sell. I’m done with McCann (CWS). d’Arnaud is d’owned. Try Kelly (Ari)?
Thanks and have a good weekend!
Thanks! Take Kelly
Alex Wood over/under 3 runs allowed today vs braves?
Over
Or 5 IP, 3 ER
I agree it’s going to be hard on wood
Drop Smoak for D.Santana and drop J.Upton for Duvall? H2H points redraft with no penalty for k’s.
Yes
Better luck next time, slugheads!
Ha
No. No. You will not make me pick up Travis Shaw again. Darn it. Here’s my password. Just add him and whisper sweet nothings in my ear.
PS No one in my main league believes in Danerys Santana, first of his name. Willing to sell him for pennies on the dollar because I’m out of contention, but haven’t gotten a single bite.
Yeah, I could see that on Dannys
Of this list, Teoscar, Shaw, and Edman are the only bats from this column available in my 5×5 Roto where I need AVG help. Pick up any of these over K. Calhoun or Robles?
I’d try Teoscar for this weekend over Kole, but it’s not a long term add… For straight AVG, Edman over Kole
Would you rather lose Cooper or Jarlin right now? I need to drop one
Cooper
Cecil or D.B.?
Cecil
Drop Peacock for A.Sanchez or A.Wood?
Wood
Another week, another great convoluted buy column from Grey.Always a good read and greatly appreciated.I wonder if anyone will be able to notice when you get senile?
Haha, thanks (I think)
Drop Kingery for either Bo Bichette or D’Arnaud in a redraft points league? I’m in the playoffs for sure so looking for ROS advice. Also have Narvaez, Carlos Santana, Matt Olson, David Fletcher, Amed Rosario and Tim Anderson. Would you make any moves here? Gracias, amigo!
Bo over Kingery is fine, but a little risky… I’d go Travis over Narvaez
Who do you prefer ROS…Bauer or Flaherty?
QS start category instead of Wins if that matters.
Bauer
Thank you very much. Just so you know you’ve made me dread the weekends because I miss your daily write-ups so thanks a lot!
Aw thanks!
I agree.
1) In a 12 team weekly lineups 5X5 with 30 player rosters
Needing saves & ratios & currently have Rodgers, Hendricks, Shafer, & Colome & Lugo is on the wire. Unless I missed something isn’t Lugo the presumed closer for NYM?? Not much available in SP so my move would be to grab Lugo & drop a bench bat until I see how the closer shakeup post trade deadline pans out??
I guess my question is pick up Lugo & drop a bench bat or one of the other closers?
2) Is A Sanchez (now on a better team) worth rostering in the same fantasy league?
Diaz is the closer… Colome is the closer, him over Shafer
2. Sanchez who
duh not sure what the hell I was thinking ….need coffee. Diaz was almost a sure thing to be traded but never was ….sorry
No problem
SP Aaron Sanchez
Pancho?
Villa?
2. I wouldn’t own Sanchez
How long does vladito stay a 3b? Asking for a friend.
Don’t think he’s going anywhere for a few years
Hey Grey, I need to open up some roster space. Who’s the drop?
I included the keeper values too. Positions don’t really matter since they’d just slot into my U spot.
12 team, points league, 2 more weeks of the season and then playoffs (which I’ll make).
Stanton (no keeper) – will he be back within the next 4-5 weeks?
B.Lowe (2 years, 10th rd)
T. Anderson (2 years, 10th rd)
L.Urias (2 years, 10th rd)
Thank you!
Stanton
Grey,
Thanks for the help, as always. Who would you take as a third keeper to go with Betts/Bellinger: Harper or Xander?
Xander
“Too bad sociologists are all busy with the high-paying jobs of pretending to be homeless for sociology studies.” Dude, is this really a thing? Cause I have a youngish, white, blond lady who lives on the grassy field by my place with all her stuff. But I’ve seen her in CVS using her debit card, doing yoga and her makeup, and figure she has to be an anthropologist or something. The more you know
I’ve opened your eyes, I woke you
Its likely the well-educated, selectively self-effacing mentally ill graduate sociology student trying to digest then involuntarily regurgitating the disinformation she’s being fed at our institutes of lower learning. It was so much easier thirty years ago when we just had Deadheads and “hobos”…
Haha, it’s a sociology study!
Is she shaving her legs and armpits or letting it grow? That might tell us something…
Of course!
Damn, Kingery’s ownership % in Y! is under 50% – he’s gonna make the BUY next week!
I don’t look at Yahoo
i thought it was both Y! and ESPN this whole time
Nah just ESPN
Why NOT put Canha in the BUY? What’s a man gotta do!
Went over this morning
Just grabbed Thaiss, thanks for the heads up.
Have a great weekend. I got last in my fantasy football league (thanks Josh Allen you SOB) and keep putting off the punishment so tomorrow is the day – have to wear an orange jumpsuit and shower shoes wearing a two sided sign that says “Snitches get Stitches” and stand in front of the jail until they make me leave or worse so I have that to look forward to.
No problem… sorry to hear it, hope you get parole
NL only 5×5 keeper league
tied for lead in SV (next team is 12 saves behind) top 3 in k’s and era middle of pack in W but lower half in whip.
have most FA $ do i need to grab Bauer or Greene for 90 of my remaining FA $ grab a bradley
thinking i can stand pat and keep pitching my Munoz and his K’s and having flexibilty in last 8 weeks vs having a few bucks till end of the year the teams chasing have great SP and or can grab Greene but have to also spend almost all their FA $
or grab bauer to block them?
complicated so i am going to the lothario of complicated
dont want to blow all this hard work have a 8 point lead in 5×5 8 team league
i meant to say i met my innings requirement n have a decent sp staff i can lower my whip by pitching guys like munoz
Oh… then what are you doing with your FAAB cashola?
Grab Bauer if you can
i am tied in SV
cant gain in anything but whip
i was thinking there are 8 weeks left not the usual 5-6 weeks of the season being able to flexibility to last to the end have the $ to get what i need till the end/ greene or a bradley gets me 1 point in saves. bauer if he is the 3 era guy does very little for me except play keep away from people n is an upgrade on my #8 sp gio gonzalez.
or get my competition to spend all their $ so they arent as flexible at the end to maneuver
no i wont need all that % so i was thinking of putting in a bid on both for 80% of the rest of my faab sothe only way to outbid me is to spend almost all your faab
You know your situation better than…obviously Bauer is top get but if you don’t need a SP grab Greene, he’s top closer move
12 tm al only dynasty
Trade Eduardo Rodriguez($1 for 2 years)
Acquire Casey mize and Forrest Whitley ($3 3 years and can be extended for $5 per year after that)
Sure try it
You have to come to Razzball to get Khris Davis hemisphere splits. Suck it Fangraphs!
Hahaha
Imagine if there were actually somebody intelligent in the Angels front office and instead of signing Bour they would have let Thaiss play in April and call up Taylor Ward and actually play him instead of letting his 24 HR and 61 RBI in 84 AAA games go to waste. I wont even go into Allen, Harvey, Cahill… dear Lord, give one of us Razzball commenters the Angels GM job. Conceded the wildcard by July 31 instead of acquiring a SP? Eppler is horrid.
These are not even hard things to figure out… you really have to wonder want they’re thinking
Just proves its more about who you know then what you know. Eppler probably balked at including Ward in a deal but is gonna let him stagnate in the minors as a soon-to-be 26 year old rookie if he eve makes it back up. It amazes me (or not) that they need offense but slide Fletcher from 2nd to 3rd so they can start the weak hitting Rengifo who will never be that great with the bat. Meanwhile both Thaiss and Ward swing the lumber and can play 3rd pretty well but Fletcher was there last game.
All Angels fans should be outraged…such terrible direction this org has gone… then to DFA Lucroy today instead of trading him for scraps of nothing else
Classless really.
You lost me at imagine “if there were actually somebody intelligent in the Angles front office”.
It’s hard to imagine isn’t it?
Poor Trout
Haha
In two recent games the Angels lost 9 to 1 and were losing 7to1. In both cases, it was a HR by Trout. There should be a sign on his back, “No matter how great I am, there only so much I can do.” It just sucks to bean Angels fan watching them utterly waste this generational talent.
Haha, yup
Elieser Hernandez at The Rays tomorrow?
This is exactly the kind of situation that The Rays seem to choke in, and make some mediocre pitcher look like a god on the mound.
Seems fine in deeper leagues
Love the title Grey!! I am usually so on top of the news, but was on vacation and wasn’t able to pick up Duvall fast enough.
Here’s my league info and current roster.
NL-Only, 10-TM, H2H, 5×5 (OBP)
CA Smith
1B Rizzo
2B Hernandez
3B Rendon
SS Escobar
IF Camargo
OF Acuña Juña
OF Harper
OF Hoskins
OF Inciarte
UT Happ
B Dietrich
B Aquino
SP Ryu, Corbin, Musrove, Mikolas, Wood, T.Williams, Quantrill, E. Hernandez
RP Yates, Kimbrel,
IL Stripling
A) I currently have the #1 waiver pick and am set to pick up Bauer. Unfortunately, YAHOO! Crapped the bed, and didn’t put him in the waiver pool till the day after the trade (Stroman was added within a few hours). Because of this, I won’t be able to have him for Saturday’s start, and I almost picked up Stroman just to make sure I had the extra arm for this week. Anyway, who’s the drop? It’s gotta be one of Camargo (I know he’s a buy, but Swanson is due back soon), Dietrich (not getting the PT even with Scooter gone), Aquino (would like to see if his power sticks), and Happ (isn’t getting the starting love over Bote or Schwarber now that Castellanos is on board).
B) Once I get Bauer, I’ll have 9 SPs. I’m looking to deal Wood for Wong (hehehe). I’ll then drop one of my bench bats for another RP. Which of the following would you pick up? Baez, Gant, C. Martin?
C) Once Stripling is activated from the IL, who’s the drop from my staff, Hernandez or Quantrill? Or, would you get rid of a bench bat as owners seem to be hoarding SPs?
D) Please rank the following batters(position doesn’t matter) for a roster spot right now: Shaw, Camargo, M. Cabrera, Dietrich, Muñoz, Cabrera, Aquino, N. Walker, and Bote. Shaw and Cabrera are both on waivers, and I’d wait till they are FAs.
E) Of the above (C), please rank the top 4 batters you’d speculate on for ROS with the best upside for PT.
Thanks for your help!!
Thanks! A. Happ B. Baez C. Quantrill D. Shaw, Dietrich E. Same two, Camargo, Aquino
Thanks Grey!! If I can’t get Wong, would you go for Newman?
Sure
No Go on Wood. The owner doesn’t want to gamble on him. Would you do Musgrove for Wong?
Yeah, I would
Musgrove is $6, but I’d keep Ryu (10) and Corbin (16) over him. He’d be kept by the other owner for sure. Do you see Musgrove taking a big step next year? If so, I’d probably want to hold onto him and throw him back.
Also, I would lose 2 starts next week (vs. MIL, @STL). I’ll be playing the other top team.
Big step? Meh… I doubt it, but Wong is what he is by now
I hear ya about Wong. Now Ryu is on the DL. I’m sure it’s the Dodgers being the Dodgers, but I need a start from him or Stripling next week with a loss of Musgrove. However, Wong fills an immediate need, and offers extra SB potential.
Thanks!!
I don’t know Stripling’s health status
Yeah, just was thinking out loud. My guess is I get one start between the two of them, and if I don’t,at least Scherzer won’t pitch against me.
Yeah
My love for Finally Freed Willie Calhoun runs deep……am I taking too big of a gamble selecting him to replace Voit instead of Duvall or Inciarte as playoffs arrive?
Enjoy the weekend!
Sounds like a decent gamble on Willie…he is the gambler after all
Thought I’d see Franmil as a buy. You like Franmil or Sano?
I think Franmil is owned, he should be
Only 36% owned in ESPN, oddly enough.
Ah, then yeah he’s a Buy
6×6 OBP/QS keeper league. Which side wins? Snell ($6) or Benintendi ($20) + Kluber ($30)
Snell
Drop Khris for Duvall?
Yeah, think I would in shallower leagues
Matt Chapman or Sano? I thought Sano was a no-brainer, but Razzball tools (Player Rater Remainder of Year; and Trade Analyzer) favor Chapman. You’re the tie-breaker.
Chapman
Drop Nick Anderson for Bass? Thanks!
Nah
Can only start 1, QS league. Fiers vs StL or Maeda vs SD?
Fiers at home
Grey, idk who the F is Shelley Duvall!! You won the bet!
So I got Woj bombed (no surprise), but Wheeler saved the day!! Move below to drop Woj
You like bench bat of Franmil (f’n Ender sitting today, so I am an idiot not doing this sooner), or spec on Lugo, Chavez, Shafer? Seems like that’s the right order to rank the specs? I liked Shafer but sounds like Giles will be back soonish…
Current relievers: Hand, CMART, Workman, Oberg, Peralta…
If I can’t totally rely on Ender, and Pham getting hurt all the time, think having Sano or Frany makes some sense…
Thanks brother!
Oh, and that I traded Cruz, so I am of the mind that I want to have some powaaaaa around
Really trying to get some more saves going too :(
If desperate for saves, I guess Shafer over Franmil
hmmm, but this is H2H. So if Giles is back in the saddle soon, I may just say F it… Fran-mili-amili-amillionaire!
Framilli a milli
Maybe u can come up w/ a clever nickname and give me some credit (or not, ha)? you’re much more creative than I!!
Baby Boss Seal!
Shelley Duvall is the bomb!
Franmil
Googling… from The Shining!!
Always find it interesting rewatching these movies I saw a long-time ago when I didn’t really know the actors at the time (and still, obviously, barely do).
My gf never saw Scarface (I know, I know), so I watched w/ her last weekend. I didn’t know that was Pacino! (dumb, I know) What a performance! Back in my youth, thought that was a legit españoler! Can u even say that??
SAY HALLO TO MY LIL FRIEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha
YOU WANNA PLAY ROUGH? OKAY.
M16 assault rifle + M203 grenade launcher + cocaine = awesomeness
Also, Vice City!!!
Lastly, one of my dad’s favorite lines is when Tony tells his buddy to “shoot that piece of shit.” lolol
Haha, Baby Seal going hardcore now!
rofl lolol
Seal, you didn’t know that was Pacino? Yo, Seal, IMDB is a free website… Cmon!
One of those things u kind of know but kind of don’t… maybe I did, but I would’ve had a hard time recalling that at a bar hahahaha
Then stop drinking so much! (Kidding)
Sounds boring!!
There it is, Seal needs an intervention
Paxton is valued at $11.6 against Boston tonight, but he’s been getting hammered lately. Anybody starting him?
Nope
Sitting on my bench – hoping for some silver lining that’ll make it worth holding him
I’m feeling good that I got both Paxton and Tanaka for free – but that might flip if Paxton blows tonight
#@!% dodgeritis. Guess we knew it was coming
Yup, they’re gonna be skipping Buehler soon too
Shaw is 0 for 8 with 4 K’s since the recall, jus sayin
I’m not saying him over Alonso
Grey,
What are you thoughts on this trade offer:
I give up: Luis Urias
I get Zac Geller
yea or hold?
Gallen
Thats who i meant. make the offer or hold
I’d take Gallen
he wants Senzel and minor league prospect Luis Roberts. I turned him down.
Yeah, no good
there is no one out on the WW homer Bailey, Daniel Norris are the best options. Pick one or wait a month until Kluber and Severino come back?
Wait
Starting e-rod at nyy of don’t risk the era for the qs?
Not worth it
Pick 4 for ROS (14-team 5×5 Saves+holds league)
Archie Bradley, Justin Shafer, Joe Jimenez, Anthony Bass, Jose Quijada, Liam Hendriks, Stammen, Castillo, Miller, Lugo, Lorenze, Y. Lopez, Soria, Romo, and Parker.
Hendriks, Bradley, Jimenez, Shafer
Hey Grey,
12 Team H2H Categories Saves & Holds
Wade Davis is out and Oberg is in. I currently am carrying 3 closers and 1 Holds guy, would you recommend continuing to roll with 3 closers and pick up Oberg or go with 2 closers and 2 holds guys and choose which from the following:
Jake Diekman
Yusmerio Petit
Reyes Moronta
Michael Lorenzen
Thanks!
Grab Petit
cron back shortly, regoice (sp) deep leagers!
rejoyce! that’s it, i think, multple joyces
Ha
and “sp” in fantasy doesn’t tend to mean “spelling” now that i see it out loud.
Nice
Any of these worth a stream in a H2H 10 team QS league?
Aaron Sanchez v SEA
Gio @ CHC
Duffy @ MIN
Bundy v TOR
Hudson @ OAK
Sampson v DET
If you need them… I’d try Bundy
Bundy…autocorrect
Grey is Aaron Sanchez going to start or come put of the pen
Gonna start
Whatup G,
Would you offer Hicks and Choo for Wheeler in a K/9 league? My current OF is Acuna, Yelich, Conforto, and Domingo, with Hicks, Choo, and Vogelbach rotating in the Util spot. I don’t like having two bench bats but it’s where I’m at with Anderson coming off the IL. Trade Analyzer favors the hitter combo but given my needs I thought I’d ask. Being an OPS league I feel like I can get more value trading rather than dropping either of those dudes, plus Franmil is a FA currently. Staff is Bieber, Berrios, Marquez, S. Gray, Hendricks, Pineda, Hendricks, Martinez, and Oberg. Or would you offer one of those hitters and a pitcher for the likes of Gerrit Cole? Trying to sure up the squad heading into playoffs, sitting in first leading most hitting categories but lagging in pitching. Carrasco (prayers) on the IL has held back the staff a bit. I’ve asked a couple questions the last couple days so thanks in advance of your advice, you’re the best in the biz!
I’d take Wheeler…
Thanks man. Do you have faith in Muncy, Dozier and Vegalbach ROS as starters in an OPS league?
I do if the league is deep enough
IN an NL 4×4.
Have to replace Stripling.
Should I take either Drew Smiley or Alex Wood?
Wood
In an NL 4×4
Have to replace Ross Stripling.
Who should I take Drew Smiley or Alex Wood?
Wood
Hi- keeper league, do you take Hader or Montas? Thanks.
Hader
SON was right on Paxton tonight. Sonnavabench! I think Paxton gets the O’s next so def rolling him out there for that one. This means Nunez is probably going to go 3-3 with 2 HRs and 5 RBIs
Was right on Matz too, stupid Matz
Matz is a homebody – i thought this was known?
Yeah, but the Pirates — ugh
Why is Law closing this out for TOR?
FFS.
Shafer wasn’t even warming up
Seriously FFS
I’m losing to some guy who’s not even looking after his team so I’m pissed off enough already!
Ha
Injuries come in bunches man – first Laureano earlier this week and now Dahl with what looks like a bad ankle injury
Ugh
And now Contreras
I feel bad for David Dahl but I can’t feel bad for my fantasy team. There is always a 99% chance the Dahl’s season would end this way. You draft him with hopes that you will get the talent to go with that 1% he will hold up. That’s all there is to it.
Meh, to get to August feels like a win
Porcelain Dahl
Ha, yup
Been offered Trea Turner or Vlad for Bieber. 5×5 12 team. Lost Dahl. Need all offensive categories. Eh?
Trea
Kingery or D. PERALTA to replace Dahl?
Kingery
damn it LeClerc – i guess a save is a save, but seriously giving up 2 hits, 2 walks, and 2 runs against the Tigers???
Yeah, he’s still a mess
Would you want Altuve or E. Rosario for counting stats ROS?
Altuve
Danny Santana or DJ in a standard roto league?
Dannys
I thought for sure you were going with DJ.
At 28 years old, I guess Danny Santana is a late bloomer.
I almost went DJ but I don’t like him so much
I really f$#%ing hate Steven Matz.
Me too
Glorious stuff as always Grey! I have a trade question for a 12 team keeper AL only.
Got offered: Luzardo M7, Montas A2 for my Hunter Dozier B6, Yarborough B2… I love these guys like a fat kid likes Crisco but I’m in a rebuild so no brainer right? Even with Doz and Yarbs at decent keeper prices.
Thanks!
Thanks! Sure, Luzardo side
Hi Grey
the Dynasty trade went ON like this:
i give Pete Alonso (i still have Abreu 1B)
i get Encarnacion + BLAKE SNELL + Alex Young rookie P…
as i badly needed pitching (+ dropped Yamamoto)
i’ll need to get Bryan Reynolds soon on my team before the 90 games cap, or i may loose him : over Kris D ?
Lose Reynolds before Davis
Grey,
I am trying to acquire Will Smith but he wants Matthew Liberatore in the deal. Should I add him, or walk away?
Walk away
H2h 10-team NL-only. Playoffs start in 2 weeks. Drop Stripling or Jarlin?
My closers are Iglesias and Bradley. Deep pool of starters though Max and Ryu on DL but hopefully back by playoffs
Thanks!
Btw I’ve also got Buehler, Ryu and Madea … not sure if that influences whether I should dump Stripling vs Jarlin. Thanks
Why do you have to do this move now? I guess Jarlin
Trade deadline is tomorrow and I need to send one of these guys over to fit my roster
Was planning on sending over Cooper but then Dahl happened
Send Jarlin
Thanks!
No problem
Who do you think puts up the better numbers rest of season between Eddie Rosario and Yordan?
Rosario
Haseley or Grisham In NL keeper league I’m trying to get a 4 peat in?
Grisham if he were playing
Grey, util replacement for Dahl
Adamses, Goodrum or Yaz?
Yuck… I guess Goodrum
@Grey: 12 team weekly roto redraft. Thoughts on May after last nights start?
He runs like a drunk reindeer… But he looked okay, usual rookie hiccups, he might not be good until 2021, as with most SPs
My “steal” of Sale for my C Santana and Ramos is not looking great. At least I benched him.
Yeah, ouch
He gets Twins and Yankees in our first round of playoffs. Would you trade him for any of these guys (my playoff berth is secure)
Hamels, MadBum, Noah,Kershaw, Buehler? If so please rank. Thanks!
Yeah, Kershaw, Bum or prolly even Noah as a gamble
Would you drop Mondesi who is currently in my IL spot in order to put Dahl there, or would you drop Dahl to keep Mondesi on IL? Either way, I need to replace Dahl. Here are some names. H2H points
Franmil
Desmond
McMahon
Goodrum
Duvall
W. Calhoun
Ender
Thaiss
Odor
Thanks Grey
Drop Dahl
For whom?
ESPN says Dahl will be out “several weeks” ; unfortunately, I dropped Mondesi before I learned it wasn’t a simple 10 day issue. How confident (60/40?) are you that dropping Dahl is the right decision?
Seems fine… You can replace him off waivers, wasn’t like he was Trout
Sorry, Franmil
Thanks
No problem
Grey,
Sale just got lit up (8 ER in 3 2/3 IP). I wont make my inning requirements unless I pick a starting pitcher. Here are my choices:
Aaron Sanchez
Daniel Norris
Homer Bailey
Erick Feede
Dinelson Lamet
Who should I go pick up?
Leaning towards Sanchez.
Don’t know their matchups, but I guess Sanchez
Sanchez gets Seattle at home tonight
Norris 8/6 home vs CWS
Bailey 8/7 @ CHC
Feede 8/5 @ SF
Lamet 8/6 @ SEA
Sanchez sounds best
ok just picked him up. Thanks again.
No problem
Grey
Aaron Sanchez looks pretty good in houston
Who do you like in this keeper league trade – Alonso @ $11 or Adell @ $5? $ values increase every season by 25%
Alonso
Would you prefer Quintana as your 7th starter down the stretch or Bradley as your 4th closer—have Osuna,Hendriks and Will Smith? I will be dropping Giles.
Jackie Bradley or Aaron Hicks ROS?
Thanks!
Quintana… Hicks
After this week, who would you drop for Wood?
Rey-Lo
Smyly
Luchessi
ReyLo
I didn’t read all 17,000 comments so maybe this was covered already. Danny’s (autocorrected!!) is both a buy and a sell?
He is! He’s a sell for keepers, that’s what I say in the video
Also, Sale (segue!) is now officially garbage, right?
Yup, he’s garbage
Also, Sale (segue!) is now officially garbage, right?
Officially
Any idea what’s wrong with Sale?
I guess Rudy does these headlines? That is one creative dude. But no more so than you!
I did this title, Rudy’s out of country
Sale’s giving up way more HRs, so he’s not locating, it shows on his walk rate too
I need 2 OFs. Buxton and Dahl are out (no DL slot). I’d like to cut Buxton, stash Dahl (until I’m sure his downtime is significant) and replace my bench bat (Semien) with a multi-position OF. So several decisions I’m requesting your help.
1. Cut Semien for either FLETCHER or Niko (which one? I assume Fletcher).
2. Cut Buxton for either SANTANDER, Braun, or Myers (which one? I assume Santander).
3. Or should I keep Semien and cut Dahl now?
2. Myers
3. Keep Semien
I need two OFs (Myers + 1). Of Fletcher, Niko, Santander, and Braun — which one.
Braun
Maybin or Piscotty ros?
Piscotty
NL only 5×5 12 team keeper.. I have $22 left of the $50 I started with for free agent pickups..
I am not contending and have zero starting pitching or closers I would even think about keeping next year.
With all that said.. who should I bid on.. with an eye on keeping them at that price for next year $260 salary cap:
Stroman, Shane Greene, Bauer.. or Grisham or May.. at what keepable price?
Sure someone contending and needing saves (and with more FA$) could bid $40 on Greene and then need to buy them out at end of year..
but I am looking for next year.. what do you think?
I am thinking either bidding low on May and Grisham.. or throwing money at Bauer or Greene.
Vazquez and Hader will likely be the top closers to bid on next season.. likely going somewhere in the upper $20s
Not sure why you would get these guys by bidding low… Wouldn’t contending teams outbid you? I guess can try: Stroman (11), Shane Greene (6), Bauer (22).. or Grisham (1) or May (3)
I meant should I bid all $22 on someone like bauer.. or forget about trying to fox my pitching this year and just go low and bid on the prospects. May and Grisham. $5 is minimum bid so I’d likely go more on May
$5 is minimum? Not sure what kind of keeper he’s gonna be then… can you fix your pitching? You made it sound like a lost cause… if you can win, bid $22 on Bauer
Oh I am definitely out of it this year.. this would be to jump start next year. Bauer at $22 for next year or wait until the auction next year and start fresh.
Doesn’t hurt to take him and see if you want to keep him next year
Jarlin the Marlin here in the bottom of the 8th of a tie game – based on usage, it looks like Quijada is the closer right?
Didn’t Quijada come in already?
aaahhhhhh i totally missed that in the box score – i thought Jarlin gave up all the runs
Hey Grey
Sanchez 6 no hit innings. Gets yanked after 92 pitches?
Yeah, it’s a lot of pitches for him
Hi Grey,
I’m following up from an earlier thread above, but there was no reply link. I ended up not doing the Musgrove for Wong deal since Musgrove is starting tomorrow, and I might need him. Today I added Bauer from waivers for Happ and Longoria for Aquino.
I was wondering if I should just roll with Musgrove and drop one of Hernandez/Quantrill for one of Quijada/Steckenrider as MIA’s closer role is up in the air. This would be instead of adding Baez. You wrote that you’d drop Quantrill over Hernandez, but he has a better schedule. Hernandez looked bad tonight.

And…Aquino just hit a 2-run bomb.
Nice!
SAGNOF has failed me with Shafer
I know
nice bounceback from LeClerc tonight though
Yup
Will Smith, Vasquez or Omar? M’s have not been playing Omar much despite his succcess. Bad receiver. Smith full of hype but Dodgers live to shuttle guys around.
Smith
Need some help 12 team daily roster moves roto league 6×6 with holds and ops the extra categories. We use QS instead of wins.
I’m currently in first have 123 roto points. second has 106.5
I’ve given up on most starters as they have been so inconsistent and play a lot of relievers with SP eligibility to do well in holds, saves, era and whip and compete in K’s I have a staff of: Flaherty, Bieber, Paddack, Gallen, Lugo, C Mart, Urias, Pagan, Bradley, Kimbrel, Chapman, Jansen IL: Snell, Pressly, Carrasco.
I have a 12 save lead over second. Would you trade Kimbrel and Carrasco (Both $5 keepers next year only and I wouldn’t keep) for Sale?
Hmm….tough call, think I would but not start him against the Yanks
I think it’s safe to say we underestimated Sanchez. I’m grabbing him wherever I can.
Yeah, maybe
Drop Jimenez for Giles?
Sure
Here’s to all the owners who dropped Jackson (me included) and watched Greene blow his first Save opp, and Jackson swoop in for the W! Cheers!!
Haha
Hey Grey,
Great write up!
I’m in a 10 team, H2H, redraft, standard 5×5 category league. I’m in first most of the season and mostly planning for the playoffs.
I have Kingery and Franmil. Do you like any of these guys over them? Kingery has been killing me lately.
-Tauchman
-Duvall
-Odor
-Renato Nunez
-Mike Yastrzemski
-VanMeter,
-Vogebach
-Mazara
-Ender Inciarte
-Cavan Biggio

Thanks!!
Hold
What’re you doing w/ EE in a 12T roto? Think he’s back in 3-5 or more likely a (fantasy) season killer?
Thanks
Nah, droppable
With Voit and EE out, can we feel confident in Urshela being an everyday guy moving forward? I have to add a bat and am aiming for him, Gardner, Braun or Cron. Different things but could you rank these for best bet to contribute in September?
Let’s add C Walker and Odor to the list. Walks are a category and these two guys seems to do that. Odor’s sewage and Ks are frightening but I do recall his finish last year. Thanks amigo
Urshela should play — I’d go Braun
Grey,
I have no room on my injured list to put Michael Pineda on it. Would you drop Rich Hill to put Pineda on the list? Thanks as always.
Sure
Haseley or Peraza?
Haseley
Can Diaz get through one inning without giving up a HR? I think his hard hit rate is hovering around 45- 50% last I checked.
Would Archie Bradley, who’s had a great year so far, be better ROS for saves and ratios?
Probably
Ok….Bradley is FA in my league . Drop Diaz for him or no?
Yes
Do you see Julio Urias getting some starts down the road? Not sure if la rests some of there starters.
Prolly a few
Grey,
This is my list of players on the IL:
Yandy Diaz
Salvador Perez (Keeping)
Nick Markakis
Rich Hill
Corey Kluber
Max Scherzer
Luis Severino
Jordan Hicks (keeping)
Corey Knebel (Keeping)
Jacob Webb
Do you agree that Hill should be dropped so that I can put Pineda on the IL?
Drop Hill
Do you like Teoscar or Pence more in 14T bop?
Thanks
Neither? Pence
Hey Grey, can you rank the top 2 moving forward for me please, 5×5 shallow 10-teamer, just looking for overall value, no specific category need. Duvall, Braun, Odor, Santander, Vanmeeter, W Calhoun, Verdugo. Thanks Grey
Braun, Odor
Would appreciate your thoughts on two offers:
Send Hader, get Encarnacion, Schwarber, Carrasco. Only Edwin really interests me of that set, but which side are you taking?
Send Goldy (and a 12th round pick next year), get C. Santana, C. Smith, Soler, Miley. Not sure I can get them all, but that would be the target. Which side are you on?
For context, it’s a keep 10, 12 team league, players can be kept indefinitely. I am debating whether to buy or sell.
Thanks!
This trade is meant to help when? Edwin’s out for 6 weeks at least with a fractured wrist
Santana/Smith is solid for Goldy
Yes, sorry for not being clear, the first trade would be a sell move to help next year. Do you take Hader there or the other side, if I’m selling?
Along these lines
1) does this order look right ROS: C. Santana, D. Peralta, Semien, Soler, Inciarte, Castellanos, C. Walker, G. Cooper?
2) Keeper league, would you swap Verlander for Bauer?
Thank you.
1. Peralta is last 2. Verlander is better than Bauer
Thanks, otherwise list looks about right?
And Bauer is likely a top 15 pitcher next year, even if not better than Verlander, right?
Yeah and yeah
Take Edwin etc for next year
Would you add any of the following over Diaz
Jimenez
Bradley
Bass
Pagan
Anderson
Bradley
@Grey: thanks for the report on May. Love drunken Rudolph…
12 team weekly roto. You taking a shot at starting VV with two starts (@ ari, @ sf)?
Nope
Monday. Odorizzi vs Atl; and Samardzia vs Wash. Would you start none; one; or both?
Home? Both
Have Dahl & Voit occupying DL slots. Thinking of dropping both & replacing with Manaea & Brandon Lowe. Recommendations or other ideas?
Sounds fine if likely inconsequential
Grey,
I am looking for a bat. who should I pick up
Gardner
Enciarte
Duvall
Yaz
Duvall
Duvall or Ender depends on needs
power and speed im looking for
Ender
ok thanks
are any of them better than Vanmeter
Yes
so which two should pick up if I am dropping vanmeter?
Duvall, Ender
ok thanks again buddy. So drop VanMater and pick up the 2 OF from Atlanta (Duvall and Enciarte)
Yes
No problem
Which closer would you rather have? Bradley or Hendriks?
Liam
With Voit going down , who do you prefer as a stop-gap replacement? Here’s what’s available on waivers:
CJ Cron
McMahon
Niko Goodrum
Matt Carpenter
C Walker
Marian Gonzalez

Hi Grey,
A) In my match up, we both have 46 IP and I am barely down in WHIP 1.20 to 1.16. I am ahead in Wins 4 to 3.
My Team: Corbin @ARI, and RPs Yates/Kimbrel. – Corbin vs. his former team could be a good start for him, even though the D-Backs destroy LHP.
His Team: Wainwright @OAK and RPs Doolittle/Vasquez/Greene. I think Wainwright is finally due to take a beating.
QUESTION: At a minimum, Corbin would need to allow a few less base runners, and a couple less runs in the same amount of innings. Would you Start Corbin, or just hope Wainwright implodes allowing me to secure Ws, ERA, and WHIP?
B) Looking at my hitting, would it make sense to add Quinn for his speed and drop Dietrich? Franco was demoted to AAA, meaning more starts at 3B for Kingery. Even if Quinn only gets 8 -10 ABs per week, that’s gotta come with 1 – 2 SB attempts, right? I have power, but one more guy that could steal bases would be better than Dietrich’s power bat. The only problem I see is that I have a 4th Philly; Probably not the worst thing though.
Much Appreciated!

B) Yikes Shane Greene! – Kaaaboooommmm!!
B. Blech
soylent greene sure took a long time to notice it’s the 2019 season. not good for me in NL only where i won him in FAAB bidding since i had no saves all year (did add jarlin lately too along with urias/baez/greene in 4 RP slots, and holds here too). c.martin owned now too.
Yeah, sucks
in some other saves only leagues i F’d up not noticing that oberg has that job for sure now (wade still should be getting leverage on the road, he’s been awesome on the road, like a .7 or something on road vs above 7 at home); could’ve added oberg in at least one other league rather than stick with the basses/jarlins of the world. oberg def NOT available in this NL only, has been owned for months of course.
Damn – first Sam Dyson and now Shane Greene with sucking on new teams? Might be a good idea to keep holding Chris Martin
Yeah
Grisham, Odor or Profar? 14T obp at UTIL
Thanks
Odor
Big trade question. I’m leaning toward rejecting it unless you tell me I’m crazy.
I’m in first place in our 14-team 5×5 weekly roto. It’s also a “2-year” keeper league so it is trade dump time for some and go for it time for others.
HR – 2nd
OBP – 3rd
R – 1st
RBI – 2nd
SB – 3rd
WHIP – middle of the pack but it’s close
SVS+HD – 5th
QS – tied for 2nd – 1 behind 1st
K – 3rd
ERA – 5th but it’s close
I’m offered a huge list of stars. There are non-keepers Gleyber Torres & Jose Ramirez along with virtual “non-keepers” or really expensive keepers in
$36 Corey Kluber, $42 Giancarlo Stanton, $46 Max Scherzer, $30 Charlie Blackmon and $37 Aaron Judge
for
$5 Victor Robles, $5 Eloy Jimenez and $2 Vladimir Guerrero
My non-Catchers are Freeman, Murphy, Devers, Turner, B.Dozier, Vlad, Acuna, Cain, Robles, Trout, Upton, and Eloy J.
It is a big trade offer but basically, I would probably replace Brian Dozier with Torres and J-Ram would fill Vlad’s CI spot. Blackmon and Judge would replace Robles and Eloy J.
Pitching staff regulars are Bauer, MadBum, Flaherty, Keuchel, Fried, and Hand/Hendriks/Oberg/Bradley for RPs. I have been streaming 1-2 SP spots per week. Obviously Kluber & Scherzer should help…but will they be enough?? My offense might be good enough and this trade doesn’t exactly blow me away with pitching even though it includes Kluber and Scherzer.
Decisions, decisions…
So, you’ll get Blackmon and Judge and a bunch of broken stars? Pass for me, dawg
Thank you for confirming my gut.
Pass…
Yup
Grey, Diaz promoted by Miami.Sorry if i havent seen a post of him by you. What do u expect from him ?
Grab him, good power, cut his Ks in the minors this year
I did thank you
drop vargas or junis to activate turnbull in 20 team dynasty with QS
Hey Grey,
Do you like isan Diaz over Kingery , Lourdes or franmil? Thanks!
i wouldn’t think so
@Grey: weekly roto redraft. How do you rank these for bench bats? Odor, Grisham, Diaz and Duvall.
Thanks!
Please rank these closer ROS-
Liam
T. Rogers
W. Smith
Grey,
I just got a trade offer. Remember this is a keeper league. I will give you the salaries for this year/and the price to keep for 2020
I give up: Yandy Diaz ($5/$6, covered big time at the corners), Corey Seager ($39/$43, would leave me with Didi, Fletcher, and VanMeter at SS(at least this year)), and Buster Posey ($30/$33). I still have Garver, Sal Perez, and Realmuto to cover me at C.
I get: Jose Martinez ($25/$28), Adam Ottavino ($27/$29), Yu Darvish ($30/$33)
It gives me the arm i am looking for.
I am also talking to some other owners to try and get either Zack Wheeler, deGrom, German, or Gallen (The guy with Gallen wants Luis Roberts in any deal, so I dont think that will happen).
What do you think? Make the deal?
