How good is Vladimir Guerrero Jr.? The Blue Jays are now saying they’d like to see how he deals with failure. He’s so good, he’s never failed! He will be up by mid-June. The Jays can longer hold him down anymore without concocting fake reasons. Very soon you’re going to read this from me: “Vlad, the Mini Impaler, just jacked another homer to go with his .320 average. Aren’t you glad you listened to me and grabbed him back in mid-May? You didn’t grab him? Aw, shucks, you did a hashtag fail on that one, didn’t you? It’s all right, there should be another generational talent up in five years. I hear Bartolo Colon’s got 17 sons — one could be up soon and light the world on fire, or at least put the world in a microwave, open the door 30 seconds before the world is fully heated and eat it.” And that’s me quoting future me! So, do you wanna be the guy (or girl who can totally hang with the guys), saying, “Damn, Grey, you’re handsome AF but your witticisms cut deep sometimes.” Or do you want to read my wound-salting barbs and think, “I’m so glad I own Vlad. Now who is this Bartolo Colon Jr. he’s talking about? I should comment calling him Bartolo Semi-Colon and totally make Grey cackle!” Anyway, here’s some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:
BUY
Devin Mesoraco – Here’s 2 Live Ew with their smash hit, Me So Raco! “Sittin’ at home watching the pitcher with a ball, so I got out my fingers for a pitch to call…”
C.J. Cron – Headed for the season everyone knew he could have if he played. Well, everyone but The Sciosciapath apparently. I will now have Rotowear make me a shirt with Cron’s face that says “Be Ceej” and sit outside of The Sciosciapath’s house in a military jeep.
John Hicks – I actually own Hicks in my NFBC league, and I’ve never started him because my corners are stacked, but I likely would be doing better recently if I started Hicks over Bellinger.
Niko Goodrum – Visual Metaphor Alert! Puts 151 rum into mouth, ignites lighter, spits 151 at flame, flames shoot onto nearby wall that has been doused in gasoline so it reads “Niko is a hot schmotato” in flames.
Howie Kendrick – You know what I’d like to see along with ownership numbers? The percentage where a guy is being played. For unstints, Howie is a great MI and 2nd UTIL, but how many are playing him at 2B or OF? I wonder if Rudy can do this. The problem with this, obviously, is some people put Kendrick in at 2B and have Altuve at MI. If you asked them, they’d call Kendrick their MI, but they don’t have their team set up that way. I guess what I’m asking is why don’t more people have OCD?!
Tyler Saladino – Fun fact! A Tyler Salad is a dish featured on the latest Netflix Chef’s Table, where a Dutch chef braids his hair with romaine lettuce and diners wash his lettuce head at a sink with olive oil and vinegar. However, Tyler Saladino is a hot schmotato.
Matt Duffy – I hesitated adding Duffy to this list, because he’s been nursing an injury this week, but I dared to list him anyway. I am a daring lister, one with great courage. Hugh Glass wrestled bears and inspired the movie, The Revenant. I am the Hugh Glass of listing players on a fantasy baseball blog.
Jedd Gyorko – Some weeks it feels like we’re grasping at the cigarettes that broke Joe Camel’s lung, but this week it feels like there’s legit guys who could have lasting impacts. The Cards seem just about done with Matt Carpenter, which is good news for Gyorko, jerko (stutterer!).
Brandon Crawford – On our last 7-day Player Rater (yes, we have one of those too), it shows Crawford is doing work, above Trea Turner, Bogaerts, Correa, uh hmm, there’s not a lot of shortstops to point out that are supposed to good, huh?
Travis Jankowski – Things have a way of working themselves out. Baseball lost one Pollock this week, but gained Jankowski.
Austin Meadows – I just gave you my Austin Meadows fantasy. It was written by my dog, Ted.
Matt Joyce – Didja know Matt farts into his hand and throws it at teammates, saying, “Joyce will be Joyce?” Also, true, he’s currently a scalding schmotato and the Hitter-Tron is like, “Yo, I wanna push a pipe cleaner up my rear hole.”
Adam Duvall – I’m in a pinch, as my puppet — a dead lobster — would say. I really need Schebler to do something, but Duvall is heating up.
Tyler Clippard – This week was a glorious time for SAGNOF. Reminds me the time in 2013 when Kevin Gregg gazed skyward with his sports goggles and said, “Hey, big man, I got this,” and Carlos Marmol tried to get big man’s attention and threw seven straight pitches over the backstop. Shrimp Tepera and Sandra Oh could also be in the mix.
Dan Winkler – Funny, his name is very close to what I call my penis, Tone Winky. Any hoo! Arodys is likely still the Braves closer, but Winkler and Minter could see some saves.
Justin Anderson – Did I say a glorious time for SAGNOF? Yo, it’s a clusterfudge shituation on this closerousel we call SAGNOF. In Anaheim That Is Not Los Angeles, I’d put the closers-of-the-moment at Anderson, Blake Parker, then Cam Bedrosian.
Bruce Rondon – Also, Nate Jones could see saves for the White Sox, which means bupkis or everythingkis. On one team, I have Rondon, Anderson, Ramos, Winkler and Clippard, and I might have five closers or none.
Edubray Ramos – Saving the best for last! And by ‘best’ I mean most gloriously messy bullpen shituations. Gabe Kapler thinks he’s managing the 7th game of the World Series in May, and using matchups in the ninth to get one out. Yo, Kapler, maybe you go easy on the green M&M’s.
Andrew Heaney – Might not be more than an Anaheim Streamroller, but the Stream-o-Nator loves his next start, like it loves when strangers make eye contact.
Wade LeBlanc – The Stream-o-Nator might just like LeBlanc because it longs for some friends.
SELL
Ryan Braun – Our Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell Tool is like, “Yo, Grey, you have you computer upside down, Braun’s a Buy.” I would like to buy Braun, then feed him to a family of Samardzijas. Not even sure if it’s realistic to sell Braun, can you get anything for him? What if you call him by his initials and say he’s got great roast beef?
Christian Yelich – Sticking with the Brewers’ theme, but not really. Braun is on an island all by himself, the Isle of Friquinn Injurious. “Baby Face” Yelich, however, is striking out at a much higher rate, walking less, doing his usual ground ball bit — yo, that bit was stale the first five years we saw it — and is looking less like a boon in Milwaukee than anyone expected. He appears pretty similar to what we saw in Miami, with just less male valets, but everyone loses male valets when they leave Miami. Check out what you can get for Yelich on our Fantasy Baseball Trade Analyzer. I would not trade him for the opportunity to use a urinal next to R. Kelly, but I would explore options.
Standard 5×5 season-long roto league.
Would you trade my Judge for JD Martinez?
Max Williamson is still hitting Hrs in rehab.
Drop Dahl for Gyroko, Williamson, Meadows,Aguilar, Fowler (Oak)?
Need hrs, Sbs, runs
5×5 keeper
NL only with holds and saves sold separately. have minter/hand/boxy/hunter in 4 max spots. hunter or sera anthony (his parents wanted different sex child when they had him, couldn’t pick a name, settled on a girl and a guy’s name). i don’t want saves obviously, but he’s been the best guy in PHI.
Matt Adams and Shane Greene OR Hosmer and Billy Hamilton? Ros 6×6 ops holds thanks
Still drop T Austin for Meadows / Joyce after today’s 2 HR performance? ASsuming his playing time will be gone soon with Bird coming back
Can drop Joyce
SOB, really think kingham is staying down, for some reason he was dropped about 5 days ago in NL only and just 15 or so hours ago i nabbed him. i doubt 5 days ago the owner knew he was being minored.
Yeah, unlikely
Need to drop 2: Please rank – Jose Martinez, Matt Addams, Teoscar, Leonys Martin
Drop last two
12 team daily league category for saves and another for holds. Current relievers are osuna kela seranthony Dominguez hader minter. Have Britton on the dl. You cutting osuna for Flaherty
Yes
I’ve got a bit of a logjam at OF. Who would you drop among Leonys, Mallex, Kepler, Dustin Fowler, and Teoscar?
At another position would you drop Franco for either Villanueva, Josh Harrison, Happ, or Villar. Would you rank for the top two if one goes away before II make this claim?
@Schmohawks Bob: please add Austin Meadows to the OF mix.
All of them? Leonys, Mallex — Yes, Villanueva
@Grey: weekly roto redraft. Goldy/Nola/J Gray for Sale/Jose Martinez?
Goldy
Hey Grey,
1) How do you rank Maikel Franco, Austin meadows, and Matt Chapman ?
2) how do you rank Kyle Freeland, Caleb smith, Trevor Cahill, Dylan Bundy
Thanks!
1. Chapman, Meadows 2. Look at matchups… Maybe Cahill, Smith
@Grey:
Bundy or Freeland? Thanks!
Neither? Bundy
I won’t be drafting Felipe Rivero next year… in fact, I don’t even think he’s on the Pirate’s 25-man roster anymore. LQTM
Haha
I just realized I have miles weaver wacha and flaherty on one team
Who’s the drop?
Meh, Weaver I guess, you don’t have to lose one
Not sure whether to stash Vlad now or go all in $ for Soto. Thoughts?
The Expanse really is good isn’t it? I am into Season 2 and more and more impressed.
You’re back? Welcome! Expanse is great, so impressed bc I don’t usually like sci-fi… Go all in on Soto
Abreu and Trevor story vs Lindor ros ops league
Lindor
Belt or yonder Alonso ros OPS league
Belt
Just a small Williams Treat today with that 0.67 WHIP, but 6 ERA. Guess I’ll still be able to drop him and pick him up again later.
@VinWins: That Treat Williams reference makes you Prince of the City, Vin!
@GrassyKnollRedding: Ha!
Ha, yup
Nice reference too!
@Grey:
Have you ever seen Treats masterpiece Why Would I Lie?
I think about 20 years ago, don’t remember it at all tho
Hey Grey,
I usually start my pitching studs no matter what, but would it be wise to sit Carrasco @ Houston vs McCullers today?
Thanks!
@GrassyKnollRedding: PS: Why the hell did Jack Flaherty have to come out for the 8th already at 110 pitches? That bullpen is atrocious! Fingers crossed Jack hangs on to get the win.
Haha
I wouldn’t
@Grey: Sorry. You mean wouldn’t sit him? Or you wouldn’t start Carrasco? He’s a 1 on SON…
I wouldn’t sit Carrasco ever
@Grey: Phew. Glad I double checked. Thanks a lot!
Thank me after he pitches well!
@Grey: Haha! Would love to. This one’s on you either way!
Haha
Springer and David Robertson
For JD Martinez and Clevinger
Ops and holds league
JD, it’s fair
Best ros rest of the year ?

Williams for Maeda; Mancini for Puig
Sup Grey,
h2h 10 team cat
please pick 2. Smoak, Belt, Bird?
thank you
Not Bird
I should have just hung on to Trevor all season.
@FrankGrimes:
And cue the Villanueva HR
@FrankGrimes: I should have held on to Villanueva after he went 0 for 70. 3 HR in the past 5 days.
Latin Dave Kingman?
Nice, Mann
@Grey: Thanks!
I’m sure at least one Kingman owner in 1982 dropped him after a slump and then threw his Commodore PET 4032 on the floor after an immediate 3 HR weekend.
I mean, you know this happened.
Haha, completely
@Terrence Mann:
As soon as I drop anyone they immediately have a bunch of good days.
It should be a razz term:
To Grimey. Dropping a player who crushes it for the foreseeable future.
@FrankGrimes: Ha! I demand it’s called the Grimey Mann.
AKA, the ProgNOsticator.
Haha
What’s the point of having Romo start these games?
I think the Rays are messing with us
First Tyler O’Neill bats cleanup, now Oakland has Dustin Fowler leading off… It’s all happening!
HAHA
Which 2 would u start?
Mon. Pivetta vs Atlanta
Tue. Maeda vs Col
Tue. Weaver vs KC
Can only start 2
All home? 1st two
Do you think Hader gets converted to a starter this year? Next year? He’s a great reliever, but I wouldn’t keep him as a reliever. If he starts and had those sorts of numbers, I would without hesitation. If you were a betting man, what would you say the odds are he makes the move within the next year? Thanks Grey.
Next year
Can’t do it in middle of season without losing him for 3-4 weeks
@Grey: makes sense, thanks!
No problem
H2H league. Which side on each of these makes my team better in Sept? Thank you! ,
1. Acuna and Bux or Devers and Pollack
2. Vlad or Seager
3. Vlad or Eugenio
4. Soto or Seager
5. Soto or Eugenio
6. Soto or Peralta
Pls advise on each. Thank you
Acuna, Vlad, Vlad, Not Soto side yet
Good morning, Grey! Hope you’re enjoying a lazy Sunday. Speaking of which, Domingo Santana is off today. It seems fitting that Sunday Santana gets Sundays off.
I’m starting Flaherty today at home vs. Nola’s Phillies, correct? Also, is Jack a hold past today? Or should I drop him for Junis or Weaver?
(BTW: How awesome is it to see STL batting Tyler O’Neill cleanup today?)
Finally, would you stash Carlos Rodon now? See him being viable at some point in RCL? See him as decent #3 starter? Or more like #5 this year?
Thanks a lot!
Yeah, start Flaherty — Let’s see how he does today
I’d forget Rodon for now
Nice on O’Neill!
Hey Grey- add Jankowski over Teoscar, Franchy or Franco? Or hold? I was leaning over Franco.
Thanks
Juan Soto! Over Teoscar
What are your thoughts on Andujar as a keeper? I need pitching and I’m considering trading him for Odorizzi.
AL Only ROTO.. pitching is scarce..
I’d want Andujar
@Grey: Would you deal Andujar and Matt Olson for Manaea and Brad Miller?
I didn’t like Odorizzi enough to want to jump. But Manaea has been toying with CY Young type start.
Thanks again!
I say in the video at top of the page to Sell Manaea
Drop Manea and/or Wacha to
pick up Jack Flaherty or Heaney?
Nah
6×6 h2h obp:
A) Duvall, Domingo or Buxton ROS? Could potentially grab 2.
B) Healy or Cron ROS?
Domingo, Buxton — Cron
@Grey: Thanks!
No problem
Soto available in redraft H2H league. I am building for Sept playoffs as I am well ahead of the pack mainly due to crazy luck in pitching. So I can roster a guy without expecting results for a few weeks. And I am an active trader so I grab the best players without a ton of regard to crowded positions ( within limits), and then make deals when opponents are in need. But I am struggling on who my drop would be.
Who is my drop or hold?
C Gattis
CI. Freeman, Eugenio, Santana
MI. Dee, Bregman, Semien,
OF. Rosario, Mazara, Trout, DeShizz, Jo Ma
Util. Cruz
Bench…K Seager, Peralta, Vlad.
SP- Max, MadBum, Morton, Bauer, Hendricks
RP – Ziegler, Herrera, Britton
Peralta
How much FAAB out of $126 in a 14 team ESPN 5×5 league do i bid to grab Soto?
You suggested $7 for Meadows the other day, he ended up going for $6 as i didnt bid for him after all (not a huge believer in him).
My initial guess is $12. What say you?
$27
@Grey: he went for $28…how do you come up with these bids?
This sounds dickish, but I know how much players are worth
Eek, does that sound bad? Ya know what I mean
@Grey: hahaha, Grey you know ive been following you for like 8 years now, i know what you mean…was just wondering is if there was a method to your madness besides gut instinct with that practice. Have a great Sunday!!!
Ha, I know, was just kidding… Was trying to figure out the least dickish way of saying I just know… You too!
@Grey: is that why you called me a 2 bit whore?
Haha, I didn’t!
@Grey: dime store hooker?
Hey, you said it!
@Grey: I miss the dime store. I would always go to them as a kid and it was always fun. So much randomness
Member Lemonheads? They were the best
since soto’s actually coming up i’d spread this news around at least 80% of the fervor of the impaler’s. and it’s one of those late night ones wherein i only got snaked to him in maybe 3 spots or so.
@Crapshoot Kershaw: more like 5 now that i’ve checked. still got him in some.
Yup
Here’s my buy for the season. Indians hitters. Whoever is availabe. Zimmer, Kipnis, Gomes, Alonso. After this (difficult) week, the next month is almost too good to believe with two series vs. Detroit and Minnesota and THREE series vs. Chisox. Even get the Brewers, too. The toughest pitcher they face all month is Berrios. If their bats don’t get healthy against Shields, Zimmerman, Odorizzi, et al. and back end bullpens of Shane Greene, Rodney, and Chicago’s three headed blown save monster, they never will. If those guys are available, grab them now.
@Terrence Mann: stream rajai against lefties for steals, and probably other times if/when he gets starts. don’t touch kipnis, even in 16 teamers he’s been true crap. hell 20’s too. gomes/alonso make some sense here.
Nice!
@Grey: Weekly roto redraft. Soto being called up. How much of 250 FAAB to bid (don’t terribly need an OF)? Thanks!
You have zero bids? $177
Hey Grey,
How do you rank all of these guys rest of season? They’d be used as a utility. I need to know how to set waivers in this deep league so I’d appreciate if you can rank them all =)
Gyorko, Matt Chapman, Domingo Santana, teoscar, Duvall
Domingo, Chapman, Gyorko
Probably the biggest difference ever in total pitches for the starters: Scherzer 121 Hill 2.
Haha, totally
Who do you like from Parker, Bedrosian, Edubray Ramos, Dan Winkler, Steckenrider? 5×5 scoring.
Parker, Ramos
12 team 6×6 h2h BAA
Drop Domingo German, Ivan Nova or Steven Matz to pick up Velasquez?
All of them? Can lose German
@Grey: roadtripping next weekend. any new podcast recs?
In the Dark, Season 2 — Ear Hustle — Reply All — DisgraceLand
@Grey: awesome.
Segura or Springer. Who would you rather have(in a vacum). Thanks
@uncle ernie: i’d think springer. preseason he was higher unless i lost some major part of my memory, nothing’s changed (unless springer got hurt today)
Springer
16 teamer with OPS, and hits added. 6 keepers at no price escalation or round cost. binary keep or no.
C uh oh
1B goldy
2B peraza (2B)
SS segura
3B torenado
OF (3) puig, choo, box wine (gallo)
util (2) soler power, jankowski
BN nunez (2b/SS/3B/OF)
NA senzel
DL pollock, leonys
to nab leblanc (or attempt it) have to activate leonys. who’s my drop, choo maybe?
Would drop Jankowski before Choo
@Grey: if you can’t start Gray @ SF, he worth holding on to? Gray, Gibson, VV or Gohara?
Thanks!
Nope, Gibson
Grey, Matt Adams has cooled off and Happ had a big game today.
Drop Adams for Happ or hold?
Go for it
Ozuna gets splinter in ass, Buxton reaches out to share his similar experience.
Haha
Golden Sombrero Goldy a fair trade for Nola or Syndergaard or is that asking too much.
I wouldn’t trade Goldy for an arm
@Grey: guys always get their numbers
Hope so! (thinking of OZUNA on my team killing me)
@Grey: Getting Goldy
Hi Grey,
10-team H2H
Lineup:
C – W. Contreras
1B – F. Freeman
2B – J. Lowrie
3B – N. Arenado
SS – C. Correa
OF – M. Betts
OF – A. Benintendi
OF – R. Acuna
U – J. Turner
Bench: G. Polanco; Jo Martinez
I dropped M. Chapman when J. Turner came off the DL. I really like M. Chapman; was that a mistake?
SP – K. Hendricks
SP – A. Wood
SP – N. Pivetta
SP – T. Williams
SP – B. Snell
Bench: S. Newcomb; J. Flaherty
RP – W. Davis
RP – W. Buehler (SP)
Bench: J. Familia
DL: J. Cueto; A. Reyes
Who do I drop when A. Reyes is off the DL?
Thanks!
– Kyzr
Sounds fine on Turner…ask when Reyes is coming off the DL
@Grey: Thx!
No problem
@Grey: Given your comment above to DodgerWindowClosed re. L. Castillo v A. Reyes, do you think I should pick up L. Castillo against my current staff? – Would you take V. Guerrero Jr. vs my current OF? (Also, I dropped J. Lamb off the DL for J. Turner. Mistake?) Any changes needed? Thanks!
@Kyzr5: You don’t need Vlad Jr. Can lose Williams for Castillo
@Grey: Okay, thx!
NP
@Grey: Picked up L. Castillo.
SP for this week:
W. Buehler vs CO
L. Castillo vs PIT
K. Hendricks v SF
N. Pivetta vs ATL vs TOR
A. Wood vs SD
Bench: J. Flahrety @ PIT; S. Newcomb @ BOS; B. Snell vs BOS
Any changes for starting lineup this week?
Looks good!
When Hicks is catcher eligible, how does he compare with Zunino?
Who to cut as 3B: Lamb, Franco, or Escobar.
Schwarber a bench bat. Cut for Vlad?
Zunino over him… I’d hold Schwarber — cut Escobar
Give Segura for Correa?
11t 5×5
Works for me
who wins points league Hosmer/D.Gordon or Hoskins/Arrieta
Thanks
Hoskins
Fair tho
Grey, there is literally no way I can sell Braun. I guess it’s league dependent, but I’m in a 10 team h2h redraft. Never again!
With that said, is it crazy to straight drop him to slot Bird into my DL? I think Bird has a shot to be more healthy and productive than Braun ROS. Tell me off the ledge or nudge me so I can make the leap please haha.
I don’t think I can drop anyone else right?
Ramos, Hoskins, Ozzie, JRam, Bregman, Mookie, KB, Markakis, Shaw, Jo-Mart, Gardner, Braun, Degrom, CMart, McCullers, Vasquez, Giles, Knebel, Ohtani, Snell, Castillo, Soroka, Taillon, Kingham, F. Peralta, Cahill, Weaver.
Good stuff and thanks as usual Grey!
Bird’s done nothing to constitute more faith in him
Meadows or Vlad Jr ROS? Close?
Vlad — not close if both are in majors
Should I start lamb vs matz, or teoscer vs manae?
I’m not sure if teoscer has been hitting lefties as well as he has with rights. And I’ve never owned lamb so not sure if he hits lefties better then rights or not too..
Lamb
Andujar or Villanueva ROS OBP league?
Andujar
15 team league: Current lineup:
1B: Aguilar
2B: Kiner-Falefa
3B: Franco
SS: Lindor
OF: Mancini
OF: Puig
OF: Ozuna
OF: Taylor
OF: Owings
CI: Hosmer
MI: M Machado
Util: Moreland
Bench: S Marte, Heyward, K Marte, Villanueva, T Austin
My OF is weak with Taylor and combo of Owings/Heyward being rotated in until S Marte is back. I’m 3rd in SB’s while towards bottom in HR’s / RBi’s somehow.. thought it would be opposite with this team but Ozuna and Puig have killed me.
What moves should I make with these guys available in the OF?
Franmil Reyes
Rajai Davis
Leury Garcia
Mikhie Mahtook
M Joyce
A Meadows
T Kemp
Will assume I’ll have to make a big FAAB bid to get Meadows if that’s the best option Monday
Thanks as always Grey!
Heyward and Austin are pretty bleh… I’d grab Meadows and Joyce
LeBlanc or Sonny G tomorrow?—very close per SON —
I wouldn’t start Sonny anywhere
Blackmon/Freeman for Thor/Abreu
Thanks
Freeman
Grey-
Would you drop Peraza for Gyorko ? Thanks.
Apples/oranges, but unlikely
Trade Mikolas for Healy and Bundy?
Sure
Zunino or Gattis?
Lqmb or GUrriel (for Util spot)?
@Norm Ginsberg:
Also noticed Parra available (another Colorado bat). So Parra/Gurriel/ or Lamb?
Lamb
Zunino — Lamb
Ian Desmond or Domingo Santana best bet to help me
What love to say Desmond due to Coors, but he’s been so bad… Domingo
I get Bientendi for K Seager and Jo Ma. My back fill would be Vlad!! Good, right?
Sounds fine
I guess somebody had to asked….but can’t read all these threads
what will Vlad’s numbers be next year in a 5 x 5 OBP
If I trade for him can only keep him through next year.
30/2/.360
Vlad over Seager or Eugenio?
Nah
Do you like John Hicks over Evan Gattis ROS at C?
Nah
Castillo or Reyes for QS, Wins, Ks, WHIP and ERA come September playoffs in 12 teamer, H2H?
Thank you
Castillo
12 team 6×6 h2h OPS
Which two start?
McCutchen vs COL(Gray)
Soler vs NYY (severino)
Puig @ WSH (Scherzer)
Taylor @ WSH (Scherzer)
Desmond @ SF (Stratton)
None? McCutchen, Puig
Is Goldy a buy-low candidate? He’s been reallll bad.
Would you be selling Kershaw now on name value? I’m worried about that bicep, plus LAD kinda suck.
Thanks!
Yeah, if the price is low enough on Goldy — I’d be selling Kershaw
@Grey: Kershaw for Goldy and Vlad?
Sure
Stratton is a rice-ja-broni today…thanks for the glossary term!
Haha, yup!
Grey!
You might have gotten a double post so apologize.
1. Aguilar or Gyorko ROS? Aguilar hit 16 home runs in 30 ABs last season. Plus the 1B job is his until Thames gets back. Gyorko was ranked higher in the pre season though.
2. Gyorko, Odor, Peraza- Assuming Gyorko gains SS status, which 2 would you rather own for MI?
@Carlos:
Aguilar hit 16 home runs in 280* ABs last year.
1. Gyorko 2. Odor
Is Pomeranz going to suck all year? Drop for Heaney?
In my keeper after reading/watching buy/sell/hold I offered Manaea/Cruz for Belly and Manaea for Buxton (I was all in preseason)…
Yes, I think he’s hurt…Something’s up… Go with Heaney — I’d take Bellinger and Buxton, if that’s what you mean, but you wrote Manaea on both side of the trade
@Grey: thanks for Pom confirmation. Those were two trades. Both rejected. It’s a strange keeper league and Manaea got hammered today.
In a vacuum would you trade Manaea straight for Bux?
Or
Manaea/Cruz for Bellinger?
Also offered Manaea/Lemeiheu for Odor/Verlander today
I’d take Bellinger or Verlander in a second… Bux is okay
Damn, Lameaheim or Anaslime didn’t make the cut for the mediocre Angel pitchers at home.
Ugh, I know
Grey !
Gyorko or Aguilar ROS?
Aguilar hit 16 homeruns in only 280 ABs last year. Looks like he has taken over at 1B until Thames gets back. He’s got 2 more homers tonight. Gyorko was obviously ranked higher everywhere preseason though.
Gyorko
Thoughts on andujar for ROS stats?
@Alex:
In an OBP league
