Let’s start on Jose Berrios with what Prospect Mike said, “Berrios has a great starter’s arsenal with a plus fastball (sits mid-90s) and a plus curveball coupled with an above average slider and changeup. The ceiling is a #3 starter with good ratios and decent strikeout totals. Most reports rave about his maturity and ability to make adjustments, which could give him a better shot at making it in a big league rotation. Imagine a scale of good and evil with Maikel Franco on the good side and that Albright fella on the evil side, Berrios is more on the Franco side.” Why am I a part of this example? If I could quickly evaluate the Twins current crop of starters that are prospblocking Berrios: Garbage, More Garbage, Utter Garbage, Shirley Manson in Garbage, Magic Garbage. (Magic Garbage is Utah garbage where you find soiled magic underpants.) I haven’t even started talking about how Berrios was bred in a lab in Knott’s Berry Farm by founder of the boysenberry, Rudolph Boysen, whose grandchild killed his parents and is currently behind bars (true story; yes, you’re dropping the ball, Dateline, by not featuring this). The only thing that’s been stopping me from adding Berrios in every league is I have no idea when he’ll be called up. I would add him now to see if he’s called up when rosters expand on September 1st, then drop him soon after in redraft leagues if he’s not called up. Anyway, here’s some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:
BUY
Miguel Montero – Cousin Squatpants has been hitting home run after home run after home run after– You getting the drift yet?
Mark Canha – Paul Prudhomme says Mark’s hotter than Canha pepper!
Hector Olivera – I’m assuming he will be called up at some point soon. By the by, I know he hasn’t hit well in the minors since returning from injury. It shouldn’t matter. He’s a Latin 30, and there’s speculation that he might even be way older than that. His minor league stint should be like that of a veteran player who just needs a game or three to get up to speed. He should not be spending a whole season in the minors. Yes, I did not use a contraction there to really drive home my point. “Forget the hammer, just do not form contractions. Those nails will drive themselves into the wall.” And that’s how I won Most Forceful Hardware Store Employee of the Month.
Michael Cuddyer – He’s really turned it on lately…*snooze, shoots up in my chair, looks around, sees Cuddyer’s name, falls back asleep*
Travis Shaw – If you don’t like Shaw, you’re unAmerican and Donald Trump will build a wall around you.
Matt Adams – He’s due back around September 1st. His ass will be arriving a few days later.
Chris Coghlan – A tale of two Buys. When Soler went down earlier this week, I figured Coghlan would play every day and hit, so I was like, “Yo, Handsomesauce, Coghlan’s gonna be your lead buy on Friday.” As of today, I’m feeling less hospitable towards Coghlan.
Wilmer Flores – He has 14 homers and is hitting over-.260. That’s ownable on its own for a middle infidel. Now consider the Mets have jerked his chain, benching him, trying to trade him and pulling him late in games, and he still has numbers that are ownable. Yeah, Flores would’ve had a very solid season if they played him every day in the top third of the order. (And I understand he’s a LUZR on defense; I’m talking fantasy.)
Derek Dietrich – I feel a little awkward suggesting Dietrich, because his Google search suggestions sound like a bunch of Nazi generals. The Third Dietrich?
Yangervis Solarte – The last two weeks have gone like this with Solarte, “I’ll pick him up for Coors…And he does nothing, so I’ll drop him. He starts hitting as soon as I drop him, so I’ll pick him up again…And now he’s doing nothing again.” Notice a pattern. Me! I’m the pattern!
Javier Baez – I’m guessing he’ll be called up any day now, Annie Potts, but I wouldn’t bet on him starting every day. He could though. Damn, I’m one badass landscape architect with these hedges.
Corey Seager – I kinda give up on seeing him promoted. And I kinda don’t! And I kinda do! So conflicted.
Stephen Piscotty – What does he have to do for you to add him? Piscotty doesn’t know!
Nick Castellanos – I’m told by J-FoH (repeatedly) that Castellanos was a Creeper for this week. Ask him about it, he’ll happily discuss his methods.
Francisco Lindor – In the last 30 days, he’s been about as valuable as McCutchen, Encarnacion, Bautista, Sano and Rizzo, i.e., you better be trapped under a stack of phonebooks if you haven’t picked him up.
Ketel Marte – Just think, if you grab him and he keeps hitting, you can run around screaming, “I’m drunk on Ketel!” And have it mean multiple things.
Trea Turner – His use so far is what I fear will happen to Seager when he’s called up this year. In other words, of no use in redraft leagues.
Khris Davis – Some fantasy baseball math. Karabell owns 30,000 leagues to fill up his virtual trophy case, there’s 90,000 ESPN leagues total, Karabell doesn’t own Khris Davis; Davis is only owned in 30% of leagues. Frank Voila!
Byron Buxton – I’m told that he has speed. Told. I’d sure like to see some of it.
Domingo Santana – I love, love, lurve Domingo. I think he might be more of a deep league play or a platoon guy for this year, but I would give him a whirl.
Michael Taylor – When Denard returned from injury, Taylor was relegated to the bench. Shows you where Matt Williams’s head is at. Yes, on his shoulders or in his ass are also acceptable answers. Now, Span is about to have season-ending surgery, and Taylor is about to go H.A.M.! Dot dot dot, once Taylor’s knee heals, he’s currently day-to-day.
Marcell Ozuna – OZUNA wants to be on your team. OZUNA doesn’t care if you have room. OZUNA insists you kick out your mother-in-law and make room.
Jason Bourgeois – SAGNOF! Which feels like a very anti-bourgeoisie concept.
Nathan Eovaldi – The Stream-o-Nator hates Eovaldi, just about for every start, but I’d start him in his next game.
Aaron Nola – Here is a start where I agree with the SON like I agree that no one should ever get a sun nipple shield.
J.A. Happ – It’s all streamers, all day, over-the-internet friend.
Tom Wilhelmsen – Lloyd Christmas McClendon doesn’t even know who his closer is. Sure, he’s hinted that it will be Wilhelmsen, and there’s no reason why it shouldn’t be. Lloyd Christmas also tried to get Rodney to close games until the Mariners finally had enough and released Rodney so Christmas would stop shoving that old peg into a new hole. Remember, Christmas doesn’t dumb only once a year.
Sean Doolittle – So far, he’s been very aptly named. I’d also look at Pomeranz, that cute little lap dog.
Junichi Tazawa – First, Junichi is short for Junichiban Lipstick for Men. Second, Machi could see some saves. Third, there’s no third.
Kevin Jepsen – Perkins has had about as many setbacks as merkins in becoming accepted in modern culture.
SELL
Joc Pederson – Now is he not only batting eighth, but in a few of the past week’s games, he hasn’t been batting anything because he’s been benched for Kike. Hey, I get it, it’s LA, you have to pay the Jews their respects, but when you’re being benched for Kike, you really need to look elsewhere.
Russell Martin – He’s a total pimp, for sure. I mean, his full name is Russell Nathan Coltrane Jeanson Martin, Jr. All that’s missing from that name is an ellipsis. But Martin has stopped hitting and playing.
Adam Lind – I know, sad face with a tissue that is soaked in onion juice so it burns my eyes. Alas, Lind has two homers and a .241 average in the 2nd half.
Brandon Moss – I went to our last 30 days Player Rater and clicked twice on the dollar amount to find the least valuable guy in the last month that is over 70% owned, and apparently a rolling Brandon does gather Moss.
Hanley Ramirez – Okay, I’m not saying drop him in every league. Go to your waivers and if the best guy available is Kelby Tomlinson, then, no, obviously you don’t drop Hanley. If Lindor is available? Oh, then yeah, I’m considering moving on from this schmohawk for the last month. It’s not so much that Hanley doesn’t seem like he wants to play, but it’s that he doesn’t play when he does play, so Hanley may not play dat, but Homey don’t either. Seriously, I’ve had it about up to here with this guy. I’m standing on a ladder, carving a hole in my ceiling. Once the hole is complete, I’m grabbing onto a rope hanging from a passing hot air balloon. When I’m about 10,000 feet in the sky, I’m standing on my tippytoes and holding my hand above my head. That’s how high I’ve had it up to with Hanley.
Hanley was finally removed from the ESPN undroppable list.
Too late to help my team, but thanks anyway, ESPN. Assholes.
@Shoop Da Whoop: i’d love to hear what the criteria for that is, in all leagues.
Ha!
did something change with the site since yesterday? i’m having to put in my name and email every post, whereas before it would remember them. It could be some odd computer setting of mine, but i didn’t change anything.
@goodfold2: good SON call on holland too. i think in deeper ones i streamed tomlin over him due to how bad holland was last time, but i did have to play holland in 2 really deep leagues anyway.
I don’t think so
Need pitching scores , trying to trade my JD or J Upton for Sale? Good deal?
JD is good , and J Upton seems hot now. Who to be traded away? Thanks
Upton for Sale
@Grey: If trade my J Upton for Wacha, fair?
I’d want more
Need help Grey.. looking like I’m going to lose again so it comes down to next week…
ESPN 10 Team H2H Points:
Pitcher Scoring: WIN (+3), LOSS (-3), IP (+3), K (+1), BB (-1), SAVE (+3), ER (-2), HIT (-1), NH (+10) PF (+15)
Which of these guys should I start tomorrow in my last regular season points matchup for 1st place! I’m already starting T. Ross vs. TEX (22.1) and I know my opponent is going to stream like crazy so pick all that may apply please because I’m desperate but can’t afford negative scores!
Hendricks vs. CIN (15.3)
B. Anderson vs. SF (6.6)
Peavy @LAD (-15.1)
Hendricks
@Grey: Thanks man!
Also questions about the offense:
1. Should I stick with Logan at 2nd or pickup Rendon who is finally hitting after I dropped him a week ago?
2. Also for Catcher, I couldn’t pick d’Arnaud in time this week but was he was dropped again so ride Wellington ROS or pickup Travis?
ESPN 10 Team H2H Points:
Hitter Scoring: HIT (+1), RUN (+1), RBI (+1), 1B (+1), 2B (+1), 3B (+2), HR (+3), BB (+1) SB (+1)

1. Hold 2. Go with Travis
@Grey: SON is napping. Can start two of these double downs. Who do you like? Most in need of whip/era help.
Archer – @ bal, @ nyy
Miller – vs mia, @ was
T Ross – vs tex, vs lad
J Ross – @ stl, vs atl (may get shut down)
Thanks.
Archer, Miller
Hope the weekend is treating you well!! Have a couple of questions before weekly waivers are due in my 5X5 Roto leagues with weekly lineups
1.Need to add a SP off waivers today for Carrasco,
Available on the wire are: Nola, Ross, Medlin, Tomlin, Happ, Smyly, & Hutchinson
Could you please rank the top 4???
2.Should I be concerned with K-rod over the past week? Would you bench him this week for Wilhelmsen or Jepson?
Nola, Ross, Hutch… Are all dependent on match ups… Sure Wilhemsen
Drop Khris Davis, Yelich,Inciarte, Caesaer Harnandez
for shaw, coghlan, ketel marte, cuddyer, cahna, domingo, castelannos, ozuna, taylor,deshields
Have one open spot for speed who do you like
bourgeous, deshields, kiermaier, pillar , peraza
Hernandez for Ozuna, depending on needs
Oh, and DeShields
A :::: Do you like Feldman – home vs Sea. on Monday as a stream ?
B ::::And T.Duffey – home vs CWS on Tue ?
A. Sure B. Meh
Grey need some love here. Who would you start for this week at catcher? If I win I’ll buy ya a beer. Swihart? Rupp? Montero? thx. Its fantasy baseball playoffs baby!
G
MOntero
Have an open spot for my pitching can use another starter but not feeling any of the streamers add tazawa or machi to my list of closers holland, willihelmsen,axford,ziegler,doolittle
Machi
Start Peavy @ dodgers?
Start gausman and tillman vs rays @ home
I’d start all of them
Hey, I just saw your Castellanos blurb….so not cool, not my fault he was GROSSSSSSLY under owned
Ha
@Grey: did you know our boy Domingo Santana is only 2.4% owned, if my math is right then that means 97.6% of all ESPN 12 team and deeper leagues are abandoned
Ha, you know who would make a good creeper? Sunday Santana!
@Grey: he already is, top of my list 3 at home and 3 at Cin, yes and thank you…..I preview like Master Chef shows Steven lose his hsit next week when he goes home
Steven’s not going anywhere
@Grey: he’s going to melt down hard and turn into steven schmohawk while Derrick cries because he lost his nemesis
Not happening
@Grey: yeah, you’re right, Derrick won’t cry when Steven gets the boot
He’s not getting the boot
then we got an over the net bet, I tae steven going home this week and you have?
Katrina…This week is tough to say, I feel like anyone can go now except Derrick
This discussion just started a convo with babys mama and here is what where I’m at. At this stage it comes down to range and mental toughness. Steven and Katrina have the mental question marks, one bad breakdown and they are done. Claudia is the one I worry about with range. If she can’t Mexicanize a dish then she can be done. Her chicken and waffles exposed her. Barring a massive mis-step I think Nick and Derrick are the top two. Range, refinement and mental toughness are their key assets.
Wow this is actually a really smart answer about this, can’t disagree… I think Nick and Derrick are likely top two, but I can’t help to think they might sneak Claudia in for diversity… I think Katrina’s time might be up, but I’m waffling cause I’m not 100% sure like last two weeks
HAHA
“Wow this is actually a really smart answer about this, can’t disagree”
I don’t even what to do with this, so I’ll give you a thank you and a smile
Haha, what? It is a compliment!
I know it was a compliment, I appreciate that. It was one of those “where did that come from” moments from you
I won’t let it happen again
hey Im not complaining, I love when you give compliments…hey wait, why you walking away
It’s getting weird now, thanks!
I’m not the man outside your window
Now, I’m scared
@J-FOH: bout to get his CF in yahoo too, for us deep league guys.
20 teamer with OPS/slugging/hits/total bases this lineup
schwarber
c-santana
forsythe
sandoval
suarez
OF piscotty/bruce/coghlan
util shaw
BN yelich/beltran
DL stanton/grichuk
who’s drop for baez, up soon? team is solidly in first place. gotta be for shaw or beltran or coghlan. beltran?
Beltran
man lynn is almost as much a fat F as bitch tits (fatt adams), that’s twice today that while making routine plays lynn has either messed up his knee or his ankle, probably from favoring the knee. He’s gotta be out, if so grab Lyons in NL only over any of ray/peavy/eickhoff/niese? site’s back now, cool, was out for like an hour.
Over Eickhoff… Yeah, there was a server issue
@Grey: fatt adams and lynn really oughta just put off having a barbeque restaurant connected directly to their homes till they’re like 35 or something. professional athletes my ass.
Ha
the other day when you mentioned kipnis as if he’s doing badly, this just shows the huge difference sometimes between OPS/OBP leagues and 5×5. i have kipnis in one league (first time i’ve ever drafted him, did in for a dynasty on may 5th or so), and before looking i guessed he’d be a top 4 2B in that kind of league, i was wrong, he’s 5th. in 5×5 he’s actually 7th, so still ok there too. more surprising is that kinsler is better than him in both kinds, at 4th.
Kipnis has been fine in counting stats…Not good in power or speed in months
@Grey: oh yeah, not good at all in those, but he’s turned up the notch in OPS/OBP to 11.
would you start McHugh v. SEA or Nelson v. PIT and @CIN ?
looking for ratios and then wins
McHugh
OBP with total bases and hits. need a multi elig guy. holt or the super hot eduardo escobar. if the latter i’d be doing a super stack at the top of MIN order, having dozier/buxton/sano already in this league. also dietrich/prado/tomlinson/solarte party available. 5 moves per week, 2 left for this one. other than steals (winning those too) i’m destroying opp, with only buxton and marte being useless this week.
Eduardo
@Grey: for the first time in years in this league i’m worried for my opps and it’s about to be playoff time. with my super MIN/TOR/BOS stack (9 hitters out of 13) if these guys keep this up opps might be in trouble, even as i lost franco for season, and kept Buxton over Heyward months ago, right when it was about to look as stupid as it gets.
d’arnaud
E5
Dozier
Sano
Bogaerts
Bautista/Marte/Burns
Util Beef welington, e.escobar (streamer)
BN buxton/shaw/rusney. with as many days as rusney, and 2 catchers get off and deep benches this has kept my off days in lineup to absolute minimum. If Buxton ever starts stealing i’ll have a lot of those too.
Cool
Hey Grey,
Would you start Odorizzi at home vs. KC? What about starting Heston at home vs. STL?
I am hesitant in both cases although they are pitching at home.
I’d start both
@Moscowitz: heston is str up sick at home.
Drop Hanley for Canha? 16 team keeper, I have Zobrist, Lawrie, Dietrich at MI.
Meh
Which of these bats do you like best regardless of position?
E.INCIARTE
L.FORSYTHE
T.SHAW
D.MURPHY
A.EATON
M.OZUNA
T.D’ARNAUD
D.SANTANA
Eaton
Zimmerman , Ozuna , Peralta , pick two for the coming one week. Thanks.
Not Peralta
@Grey:
Choo seems hot recently.
Choo over Peralta? For the coming a week.
Yup
Are they three safe to start tomorrow? or who to bench if not safe? Thanks
Eovaldi @ATL Teheran
Teheran vs NYY Eovadi
McCullers @ MIN Santana
@Wilson:
I think that I would bench Teheran of the 3. That Yankees offence is firing on all cylinders right now.
Start them all
@Grey: @Grey:
Eovaldi and Teheran are opponents.
Pick who if I need to choose one? (Start games limit) choose to start Eovaldi?
Eovaldi
Hey Grey,
Which two do you like as the better DL stashes for this season.
M.Franco
M.Stroman
S.Souza
Thanks
Not Franco
@JJ: stroman over souza too, likely, as he seems closer, but might be a RP.
do you like zimmerman, choo, or werth better as Puig fill-ins in a points league? k’s are -1
Choo
@Grey: thanks. and do you like Choo better than Piscotty and any of the other OF options you name above?
Choo seems hot
@Grey: not as hot as piscotty though.
G, I’m equally fed up with Puig. What do you make of this dude ROS ? I’ve spent the entire season waiting for him to contribute; would it be a mistake to drop him now with his DL stint ending right when playoffs start ?
No doubt someone in my league will pick him up.
My DL slots are full… guy is dead weight. Leading my league by a mile though so I could wait for his return, but I really dislike this cat.
Honestly I can’t imagine Puig is much better than anyone off of waivers
” Seriously, I’ve had it about up to here with this guy. I’m standing on a ladder, carving a hole in my ceiling. Once the hole is complete, I’m grabbing onto a rope hanging from a passing hot air balloon. When I’m about 10,000 feet in the sky, I’m standing on my tippytoes and holding my hand above my head. That’s how high I’ve had it up to with Hanley.”
lol
Hehe
Pick a side – keeper
Arenado/Heyward/Samadzsjjawx
JFer/AChapman/Sandoval/Shaw/Montas
Arenado
Hey Grey. Best two pickups of those you listed among canha, castellanos, shaw, and solarte. It’s a head to head points league. Thabks
Castellanos, Shaw
I’m considering dropping Hanley in a keeper. Where do you see him generally ranked next year as likely only OF and maybe 1B eligible?
50/75ish
r, hr, rbi, sb, avg, obp, k… currently have beltran, ozuna, piscotty. swap any of them for moustakas, castellanos, or alex gordon?
Beltran for Moose
Hey Grey,
Is it okay to drop Storen? Any reason to hold on to him at all? I’d grab Berrios and stash him in N/A and add Pomeranz for now. My other closers are Melancon and Britton.
Drop him
@Fever Dog: storen hasn’t been a closer since papelnuts came over a month or more ago. holds league still has value of course. and papel isn’t a guy likely to lose his job.
Looking ahead 9 days for H2H playoffs in redraft league….pick three on this list for hitting categories….not worried about SB or Ks.
ARod, Hicks, Taylor, Buxton, Eaton, Canha, Hanley, Herrera, Kant, Morneau. Tx
@John:
Kang not Kant…Freudian Slip?
Ha!
A-Rod, Taylor, Eaton
Martin, D’Arnaud, or Grandal at catcher ROS?
Travis
Is Hanley even a top-100 pick in 2016? Loses SS eligibility, doesn’t hit for average, and play at most 66% of games.
Yeah, he’ll be around top 50/75
Happ vs COL Rusin
Kelly @NYM deGrom
Odorizzi vs KC Medlen
Are they all sate to start today? Or pick who to bench if have to? Thanks
Typo, “safe” not sate
Bench Kelly
Grey, about Khris Davis…watch this…and I am a devoted George Springer keeper league owner…but watch this. I am not talking about injuries or playing times. I am just looking at at-bat comparisons.
George Springer
73/276H/AB 43Runs 13HRs 29RBI 14Steals .264AVG .822OPS
65/274H/AB 35Runs 17HRs 45RBI 2Steals .237AVG .802OPS
Khris Davis
One guy is treated like Lindsay Lohan on her anticipated 18th birthday.
The other guy is treated like…Lindsay Lohan…passed out on your floor in your own bathroom…
…with soap flakes and a sheet of yellowed Brawny in her mouth.
HA…Yeah, but Springer has a ton of speed, Davis has next to none
@Hieronymous Lohse: Grey is higher on khris davis than mostly anybody is.
Drop Crawford for Lindor? Crawford has been putting up but this injury doesnt look good. I have also been hanging onto Desmond keep thinking he is going to turn it on at some point he has a good week here and there. thx
@PeteRosesRevenge:
do it
Yup
@Grey:
Done deal thanks guys, my lineup has been dead last couple week trout, mc cutchen and friends have been MIA. I even lost to the team on auto pilot with 4 guys on the DL he had careers weeks from 5 guys scoring 30+ points to eek one out. Lost 4 of last 5 but still sitting at 12-7; hopefully it is a good time to go cold and these guys will get hot at end of season
No problem
Aushizz Moonshoot!
Love that!
@Grey:
I contemplate suicide every time
I’m reminded in 2009 Goldy was
drafted 99 picks after Brandon Belt
Haha… Be safe, Grimey, don’t do anything foolish…
@Grey: goes to show how badly teams miss on good talent. Kinda why I struggle with dynasty leagues. You can draft for a decade worth of mediocrity.
Yeah, teams can’t buy it either…Some strange mix of luck, talent and chemistry
@Grey: Yankees did well back when Torre was in town but teams as a whole were conservative with letting the kids play. The Dodgers deal is bizonkers but I could see other big money clubs doing the same thing down the road. They took on all those bad contracts to get Gonzo (mexican) and they pay teams to get players so they won’t have to trade away all their top prospects. I’d be pissed as a Rangers fan knowing they gave away a huge chunk of the farm for Hamels.
The Dodgers have done a bunch moves that are all pretty much for absolutely no reason if Greinke and Kershaw win two games in every playoff series… Like they needed and then needed to trade away Olivera, just moving deck chairs around until Kershaw and Greinke take the mound
exactly, all the moves were done to deal with the Ryu injury.
Yeah and have done nothing for that… They could’ve traded for Harang and done as well
this poses a new question, how hard is it to get a solid #3?
Solid #3 really just keeps you in the game, which a ton of SPs can do… I’m reminded of the perfect one this year, Lackey
@J-FOH: thats why if the Mets can go with their three in the playoffs it could be curtains for everyone else
Yeah, but they have IP issues…Kinda like you!
HEY!…thats not funny, the hateful side came out at my house today. Lets just saywith my language my daughter will be able to identify a drunk sailor on shore leave
Grey
In a keeper league I just saw Waino is available. Im on the cusp of the playoffs. If things dont go my way is he worth a 15th round Keep ?
Yeah, could see it, RO
@Grey: eventually when season ends ill give u my lineup an ask for 3, but appreciate the advice
Ha
@Grey: you watch MC yet?
Yeah, I’m all about the MC!
So Marlon Byrd hits a homer off of Wacha Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good .
Yup
11 team standard roto
Drop lind
Pick up canha or ozuna or cuddyer (bleh)?
In first in most batting categories and just looking for the hot bat for the first few weeks of Sept. Making any of these moves?
VMart, Cron, lindor pick 2 asking for a friend
Cron, Lindor
What up Geyski!!
@grey
Long time no speak…I was busy baking hamantashen and prepping for yom kippur fast by eating 2 dozen bacon donuts…wait….oops.
So I am in 2nd in a SUPER eep keeper league (keeper being irrelevant here but I like to seem more pro)
I am battling the guy in 2nd and getting SMOKED and can drop from my bye in 2nd all the way to 6th (still guarantee a playoff spot) I have Billy, Puig, Duda, Souza on the DL….
I am in a dire need to drop one of the SP as I have arod on his bubble butt sitting with no DH in Hotlanta
Do you drop
Hector santiago(held him over shoemaker ffs), Cashner, Jepsen (will he see saves?), Joe Ross (i kinda want his last start next week), Patrick Corbin, Cesar hernandez
I am leaning towards Santiago….can you push me off this ledge? I also have Berrios stashed already.
Thanks you studly kosher stached fantasy baseballer.
Santiago… Hey you sexy!
@Grey:
MEOW!
If your name was Dennis you could Oil my Can any day!!
YA BOYYYYYYYY(d)!!
Booya!
Doesn’t seem that long ago I was thinking about trading Car-Go for just about anything. Just as well I didn’t get off my ass and do anything about it.
Yeah totally
Which of these relievers would you want ROS?
J.Tazawa
C.Smith
S.Doolittle
D.Pomeranz
K.Siegrist
J.Benoit
K.Jepsen
Jepsen
@Grey:
Really. Somewhat surprising. Im assuming that you think that they will shut Perkins down then. Who would be your second choice out of curiosity
They’re already saying Perkins won’t close
@Grey: they changed it after his good inning yesterday.
Ah
They as in Twins
Pomeranz would be 2nd
Ramos has 3 HR’s in the last 5 games.
Rawr
Fowler vs Kershaw or Inciarte vs. your boy Sonny?
Ender
Will Harper hit another HR this year?
Well, I did say to sell him about 2 months ago
Ozuna Smash!
OZUNA like taste of fastballs
I hope this isn’t premature, but Yeah Tanaka is on the Ivictory Coast thanks to the Spankee’s offense! Great read as always, I especially enjoy this EOY buy/sell’s since I can dump struggling starters with no regrets! Have a great weekend!
Thanks! You too!
OZUNA so SONAVABENCH
HA
@Grey: And now Choo is at it. Reddick has more $$$ than both of ’em on the Tron so he better have a big day…
I hear ya
would you say they same thing about Puig
that you did bouts Hanley?
Yeah I would
Howdy grey it’s the freakin weekend I’m gonna have me some fun- hope you have fun too!
In a h2h pts league w/ a weekly roster lock which bat are you adding for depth;
Byron buxton, Travis shaw, Jung ho kang, Francisco lindor, mark canha, Stephen Piscotty, Michael Cuddyer. This is for depth or the utility spot
Which Catcher would you roll w/ in weekly D’Arnaud or Montero?
Lastly,, are you stashing either Baez, Corey Seager or Hector Oliveria in redraft?
Thanks man!
Lindor… Travis… Olivera
10-4
At first I thought this was a H2H matchup score… I’ve been doing this too long
@Grey: Sorry bout that, sent the email out. Lemme know if you need anything else.
Thanks! I’ll reach out to her for next week…
Good news my man
The Geico joke is a little old. I’m just sayin…
@Sky: wah?
All you posted was ‘Good news, my man’ with nothing else. I assumed you were waiting for a ‘what’ and then were going to tell us about the 15% you saved at Geico cuz there was no other resource to go by.
@Sky: drawing a blank there, we have no Geico in ol’ Blackstool.
I had blackstool once, doctor cleared it right up!
Yes! Email me at grey at Razzball dot com with who to contact…
@Grey: I want to make her cry on the podcast
Haha… Might not be that hard
@Grey:
“We named you the thrift store Julia child. Do you think your yard sale style hurt you in the competition”
HAHA
@J-FOH: Not cool dude.
@Mrs.Featherbottom: never said I was, but c’mon, her go to move is to cry. I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t make her cry.
@J-FOH: It seems like your go to move is to be mean spirited – and since you aren’t on the podcast to start, I don’t see what part of your job you’d be doing. Not trying to be a dick, but there’s no reason to act like an asshole to someone who is trying to do a favor to the website and broader community ;)
@Mrs.Featherbottom: you forgot what his whole name is right?
Would u rather go with Fiers (RHP) Saturday @ MIA (Tom Koehler) – just one earned run in his last 3 starts and he’s squaring off against exploitable Twins or Sunday Jaime Garcia (LHP) @ SF (Heston)?
Garcia

@Grey:

Thanks again.
