Astros’ lineup has some 80’s WWF vibes to it. Julks-Dubon being led by Captain Woo Cubano. Can’t forget, Jose Abreu (2-for-5, 2 run) at the plate as threatening as Cyndi Lauper when she’s beating on Captain Lou’s chest in the Girls Just Wanna Fun video. Or The Fabulous Martin Maldonado went 2-for-3, 2 runs with his 3rd homer. All they needed was Manaea to come through with Afa and Sika. By the way, what’s less pro wrestling than losing your acronym, WWF, to the World Wildlife Federation. First up, Mauricio Dubon went 1-for-4, 2 runs and his 1st homer. Altuve owners are Stan Gable yelling, “Hey, that’s my pie!” Then Corey Julks went 3-for-5, 3 RBIs, hitting his 3rd homer. But, leading the way, was Yordan Alvarez. Captain Woo Cubano went 3-for-4, 3 runs, 5 RBIs and his 11th and 12th homer, hitting .305. Woo has no speed and doesn’t seem like he’s been hot at any moment this year, and is still around a top 15 hitter on the year on the Player Rater. Truly one of the best and gets nowhere near enough acclaim. Or as Rowdy Tellez would say acc’laim. Anyway, here’s what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:
Lance McCullers – Astros said he’d be out until around the All-Star break. He’s got a forearm issue, so it’s very sneaky, but predictable the Astros didn’t say which All-Star break.
Corbin Burnes – 5 IP, 5 ER, ERA at 3.97. This feels like when you get beat up in school and your dad takes you for ice cream. But instead of ice cream, it’s the pitcher who was drafted in the first two rounds getting beat up to make you feel better about having Gavin Stone and Ober and Charlie Morton and JoMo and do I have to continue? I guess I do…
Rowdy Tellez – 2-for-3 and his 12th homer, and 2nd homer in as many games. Paul Newman’s half Jewish, Goldie Hawn’s half too; put them together with Rowdy Tellez and you still have one fine hittin’ Jew!
Tucupita Marcano – 2-for-3, 4 RBIs and a slam (2) and legs (2). Left my wallet in Tucupita, gotta get it, gotta gotta get it!
Carlos Santana – 1-for-3 and his 5th steal, hitting .239. Who knew three inches would make that much a difference with his ability to steal? He would’ve been a 50-steal guy when he was younger if he were wearing shoes three inches bigger.
Luis L. Ortiz – 7 2/3 IP, 2 ER, 7 baserunners, 4 Ks, ERA at 4.02. It took me far longer than I want to admit to see what I’ve said previously about Luis Ortiz. It turns out there’s about twelve other Luis Ortizes. Any hoo! I wouldn’t expect you to search that hard, so here’s what I said previously, “We have projections for every rookie pitcher, and Ortiz’s are better than expected, tee bee aitch. He looks like he could be a 8.5-9.5 K/9, 3-3.50 BB/9, 4.25 ERA pitcher. His command is so iffy, I’m not getting on this train yet in mixed leagues, but maybe Streamonator if he looks good. Ortiz can be great or tease. Bam! You walked into it! No? Okay.” And that’s me quoting me! His command is still wonky, so I’d be careful.
Dane Dunning – 5 2/3 IP, 1 ER, 9 baserunners, 3 Ks, ERA at 1.67. Ya know what’s funny that’s not funny, I keep trying to make guys like Gavin Stone (and soon Bobby Miller) work and Dane Dunning is just there, throwing solid start with terrible peripherals after solid start with terrible peripherals. Streamonator hates his next one, but not sure how you can keep ignoring him.
Josh Jung – 2-for-4, 2 RBIs and his 10th homer, hitting .263. He is running away with the AL Rookie of the Year. Every day in the comments people are asking to drop him for some random schmotato.
Tyler Glasnow – Expected to make his season debut on Saturday. One fantasy site said, “Highly-anticipated debut,” which oversells everything, doesn’t it? Highly-anticipated for who? One person in each league? Is this fantasy or is this a Rays’ fan site? It’s so stupid to care about this shizz, but that’s why guys get insanely overrated. He’s thrown more than 110 IP once in his career and he has a career 4.00 ERA and 1.24 WHIP. Would I take him for free? Sure, but also, if you roster him you have five days to sell him for anywhere close to how much hype he has.
Josh Fleming – 6 IP, 2 ER, 6 baserunners, 2 Ks, ERA at 3.59. Guess who started Fleming for his unconventional two-start week where he follows an Opener? This guy with two thumbs who still isn’t sure when Fleming is going to pitch next!
Jose Siri – 1-for-3, 2 RBIs and his 7th homer. Speaking of starting Rays and having no idea when they’re going to be in the lineup, that’s kinda the entire Rays team. Put Siri in your fantasy lineup and pay no attention to when he starts because that way is an ulcer.
Luke Raley – 1-for-3 and his 9th homer. Continuing the previous two blurbs’ gist, don’t know when Raley’s playing, don’t care. Just play him, walk away and go have some ice cream with dad.
Randy Arozarena – 2-for-4, 2 runs and his 11th homer, hitting .308. The Rice Bowl is around top 5 on the Player Rater, and every year previously his Statcast looked bad, even when he was going well, but not this year.
Whit Merrifield – 4-for-4, 2 RBIs and his 2nd homer, hitting .287. He’s on pace for an 8/50 season. You cannot kill Merrifield’s fantasy value, ever. He’s the cockroach of fantasy value.
Daulton Varsho – 1-for-4 and his 7th homer. He’s on pace for 25/25. Yes, he’s hitting .207, but you’re too in the weeds if you’re worried about what your catcher’s batting average is.
Chris Bassitt – 6 1/3 IP, 2 ER, 8 baserunners, 4 Ks, ERA at 3.03, but four more unearned runs that had my heart palpating for the always-scary, box scare.
Paul DeJong – 2-for-5, 4 RBIs and his 8th homer, and 2nd homer in as many games. Fourth homer in the last week and 27th homer in the last two weeks, or near that. Colonel Mustard in the batter’s box with a lightning bolt!
Jordan Montgomery – 4 IP, 4 ER, ERA at 4.55. I’ve gone from a JoMosexual to striking out with every un-Hinged guy off waivers.
Spencer Steer – 1-for-5, 2 runs, 2 RBIs and his 6th homer. That’s nice. With Indiana Jones back, I’m wondering if there is some way to remove Steer and replace him with Christian Encarnacion-Strand like how Indy switches out an ancient relic with a bag of sand. Only it’s a bag of Strand.
Charlie Morton – 5 IP, 6 ER, ERA at 3.61. Why couldn’t this game be rained out?
Eddie Rosario – 2-for-4, 2 runs, 3 RBIs and his 5th homer. Can’t believe he was the one to do the damage against Gavin Stone. More like Gavin Ulcer. Give up homers to Albies, Tildaddy, Olson, any number of people, but Eddie Rosario? C’mon, Gavin!
Gavin Stone – 4 IP, 5 ER, as he was recalled, ERA at 10.13. Changing his name to Gavin Right In The Stones.
J.D. Martinez – 4-for-5, 3 runs, and his 7th and 8th homer. If Just Dong moves the dong, then more power to you, but he does nothing for me. Just being honest. How’sever, a two-dong, four-hit Just Dong night goes a long way to him being a hot bat.
Freddie Freeman – 3-for-5, 2 runs, 3 RBIs and his 9th homer. Pretty cool he did that back in Atlanta*. Â *Trying my best to ignore that I started Morton and Stone and I took a hammer to my computer screen.
Jaime Barria – 5 IP, 0 ER, 2 hits, zero walks, 6 Ks, ERA at 1.61. Barria’s peripherals are in the barrio of a solid back-end starter. Streamonator hates his next start, but I’m willing to let foot off the brake a little and try him in some leagues.
Mickey Moniak – 2-for-4, and his 3rd homer, as he hit leadoff, hitting .429. Think he’s officially Wally Pipp’d Ward. Call him Wardy Pipp.
Michael Lorenzen – 5 2/3 IP, 5 ER, ERA at 4.08. Guess he wasn’t a “great idea” for a two-start starter. That’s what I get for ignoring the Streamonator.
Matt Vierling – 3-for-4, 4 RBIs and his 4th homer, and 2nd homer in the four games. Fun fact! A Vierling is a small vier.
Brady Singer – 3 2/3 IP, 5 ER, ERA at 7.48. Pregame: Watch Brady Singer get right vs. the Tigers. Three innings in: Feed me to tigers.
Bobby Witt Jr. – 0-for-4 as he was dropped down to 6th in the order. Halle Berrylujah! Royals were always doing him a disservice by hitting him leadoff. When I wrote the preseason Bobby Witt Jr. schmohawk post about how he was overrated, there was push back then and continually about how he was so fast. You’d think by now we’re all aware of the old nugget, you can’t steal first.
Hunter Dozier – Designated for assignment. His assignment is to steal Christian Walker’s blood, and become his doppelgänger again for fantasy.
Vinnie Pasquantino – 1-for-5, 2 RBIs and his 9th homer. Ay yo, Vinnie Pasketti, knows what to do with a meatball, ay yo!
Jackie Bradley Jr. – 1-for-4, 2 RBIs and his 1st homer. “Oh c’mon, he homered too?!” That’s a famous quote from a Jose Abreu fantasy owner.
Bailey Ober -5 IP, 4 ER, 6 baserunners, 2 Ks, ERA at 2.55. Not what you want to see in a layup matchup, but Streamonator likes his next, and I’m still in.
Michael Conforto – 1-for-3, 3 RBIs and his 9th homer. Been a schmforto for a fortnight.
Edward Cabrera – 6 IP, 3 ER, 6 baserunners, 6 Ks, ERA at 5.05. This doesn’t feel like a start for EdCab or his owners, but for all of us wondering if we should start Eury. You’re roping us in, you bastard!
Jose Caballero – 1-for-4, 3 RBIs and his 2nd homer, and 2nd homer in as many games. At worst, hot schmotato alert! At best, his contact makes him slump proof and, while everyone was bidding like crazy on Matt McLain, I got the real breakout for 1% of the price.
Jarred Kelenic – 3-for-4, 2 runs, 3 RBIs and his 10th homer, hitting .297. Unjarred: The Releasing of Kelenic, How One Top Prospect Got A New Lease On Life. One of those biographies where the title is longer than the book.
Seth Brown – 2-for-4, 1 RBI. Feels like when an old crush reemerges back in your life and wants to rekindle things and you’ve moved on. I like you, Brown, but I sorta have a thing with Mickey Moniak right now.
Hunter Gaddis – 6 IP, 0 ER, 3 baserunners, 4 Ks, ERA at 5.26 as he was recalled. If you’re a hunter and gatherer with waivers as your forest, don’t Hunter Gaddis.
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. – 4-for-4, 2 RBIs and his 8th homer, and 2nd homer in the last six games. That tracks with what we know of Lu-Gu-Ju. He’s a steady producer that won’t have gaudy numbers, but solid contact leads to a consistently valuable fantasy producer.
Pavin Smith – 1-for-5 and his 4th homer, and 2nd homer in three games. Hot schmotato alert!
Tommy Henry – 5 2/3 IP, 2 ER, 6 baserunners, 5 Ks, ERA at 4.68. Tom Hank telling Gabriel Moreno to catch him if he can.
Zack Wheeler – 6 IP, 3 ER, 9 baserunners, 3 Ks, ERA at 4.11. It’s hard to take a victory lap on ignoring pitchers when they all stink, but if Wheeler gets much worse, I will attempt it.
Bryson Stott – 1-for-3, 2 runs and his 5th homer, and 2nd homer in as many games. Stott’s hawt!
Kyle Schwarber – 1-for-3 and his 12th homer, and 2nd homer in three games. If he hits as many homers as he usually does in June, Schwarber’s gonna enter the All-Star break with 47 homers. Which will tie Christopher Morel and Paul DeJong.
Hey brother –
Would love to get your Thoughts :
Best bat R.O.S. :
( 5 x 5 standard roto ) –
** would you please rank your top choice + backup ?
For what its worth ( Moniak / Doyle both really interest me ..but, RbI’s my weakest category – so leaning Kiriloff as top ?
Kiriloff,
Moniak,
Doyle,
B de La Cruz.
Senzel
Castellanos for Eflin?
Grey,
Got a mid pack team so far: keep 11 15 team obp slg and k/9 qs
My arms: Gilbert, Bryce Miller, JoMo, Varland, Degrom, Wacha, Bradley, Cobb
Would you trade Treat for Gallen and Harris II,
my other SS is Gunnar, 4 OF/ util spot: Judge, Mullins, SMarte, Nootbar, Outman, Mervis
Just got dealt Bader for Elias Diaz, and also got william Contreras in deal. 14-team league, pretty much everything scored. Do I keep my namesake in William, or do I grab any of the following: Alvarez, Jansen, Gomes, Moreno, sabol, d’arnaud?
Thanks for all that you do, can’t say it enough!
Can u rank waist wisdom and Bauers please was hoping Bauers would catch fire but he is starting off slow
Walsh wisdom and Bauers
Hi Grey,
10 tm h2h pts
Who’s the drop?
1) Teoscar, J.Lowe, Kelenic
2) E.Duran, Hoerner, Morel
Double big THANKS THANKS!!
Have a great week and best of luck for your teams!
Sorry, one more question.
Who the first drop of all those players?
THANKS again!
Starting to look like Miller was the one we wanted all along.
Yikes, Springer a double short of the cycle and it’s only the fifth innning.
Ha, still
What’s good Grey? Was wondering if Roansy, Luis Ortiz, Strahm or Bradish deserve a spot over Detmers, Ober, Liberatore, or Flaherty? Me thinks no, but you’re smarter than I.
P.S. Is it worth stashing Skubal?
P.P.S. Hi to Ted!
Ted says hi! Bradish is interesting but I’d hold for now
Oh forget Skubal
Texas size 10-4. Appreciate the feedback!
@Grey: weekly roto, who do you like between dansby and suzuki (both have 6 home games, 3 vs nym and 3 vs cin)? Need avg/hr/rbi.
Thanks!
Dansby
@Grey: thanks! also, is jomo pretty much a streamer in 12 team roto leagues at this point? or are you holding?
Stream
Oh great Grey-
Elder (@Oak; @AZ) or Senga (PHI; TOR) next week?
Senga
Hi Grey Another question. Looking to pull off a blockbuster trade. 12 team H2H points league. Which side would you choose?
Seager, severino, Morton, Eflin
For
Bogaerts, verlander, urias, Kopech
Thanks so much!
Corey
Caballero or McClain?
McLain
Is there anywhere on the site that projects K/9 ROS? Have looked but can’t find anything. Though I suppose I could just plug Steamer projected IP and projected Ks for each fella into a spreadsheet and figure it out that way haha.
I’ll ask Rudy
Thanks – I *think* I’ve worked out how to do it, though I’m not an Excel guy’s shoelace lol
Ha, I don’t think we do bc Rudy pointed me towards the ROS page… https://razzball.com/restofseason-pitcherprojections/ — it’s not that we don’t have it, just don’t have it listed
Thanks – that’s where I ended up too. I’ll ask any questions over there.
Loving having Yordan on my team, so money.
Absolutely!
lugo worth an il stash?
In some leagues
Hi Grey,
Who would you start in RF today:
George Springer @TB with Taj Bradley pitching or
Josh Naylor vs CWS with Cease pitching.
Thanks!!
Springer
Thanks!!
No problem
I wonder if the MiLB ball is a lot different than the MLB ball. Stone is supposed to be a command guy and he walked 5. His MLB bb/9 is 7.88.
Some other rookies with bb numbers above their MiLB averages:
Grayson (3.81)
Pfaadt (3.60)
Jameson (6.35)
R. Contreras (4.14)
Even Shane Mac has gone to 3.95 from 2.06 last year. What I’d also be interested in is seeing if high spin rate pitches have been more affected. Maybe the ball is spinning more? Make it harder to locate breaking pitches.
Yeah, maybe, rookies are always fickle tho…Shane Mac is concerning…Vet pitchers who suddenly see walk rates, that’s worrisome
cabrera or kopech?
sorry. drop cabrera for kopech or houck?
Kopech
Doyle starts again today for the Rockies. Here’s hoping he continues to stay away from Bud Black’s daughter!
Agreed!
Drop Rooker for Wacha? Currently have Woodruff, Urias, Lodolo and Ray on IL. Would Wacha be a pick up and hold or more of a streamer? He seems to have been fairly consistent up to this point. It is a QS league and it seems very difficult to find pitchers that actually go 6 on the WW.
Ed Cabrera is also an option
Sure
Who would you rather have Ke’Bryan or Baez?
Hayes
Points H2H Points redraft, please rank ROS.
Hays, TJFriedl, Ward, Grischuk and Rooker.
Rooker, Friedl
Wheeler and france or albies and nestor
Albies
Witt Jr, E. Ruiz or Josh Lowe? In what order?
Witt, Josh
Grey 12 teamer… Very early but floating between 1-3…. Could use a 1B elg w some pop/avg … Drop Schmitt for either Fraley, Urshela, Donovan, or Owen Miller? Or Hold? Thank you always
Fraley
Once Royce Lewis gets called up how would you rank as MI: India, DeJong, Lewis, Mateo?
Assume Nico ahead of them all?
Nico, Lewis, DeJong
Yay, another MHII question! I know you told others to hold him, but what if Moniak is available on waivers?
Moniak isn’t a replacement for him
Hey Grey,
Matt Chapman was just dropped in my league. I Have Gunnar at 3b 12 team H2H points. Should I risk getting Chapped man?
Sure
12 team ..h/h points redraft……two from
Ober
Varland
Shuster
Bibee
Bibee, Ober
Who are the top 2 out of Kelenic, Lourdes, Renfroe, Teoscar, Santander, Soler?
Kelenic, Teoscar
Eloy over both?
no way
Senzel, Caballero, CJ – pick one.
Caballero
Who sits tonight. Thanks
India v Wainwright at Cin
McLain v Wainwright at Cin
Morel v Senga at Wrigley
India
Drop Ward for TJFriedl? Already baked in Red heavy with India, McLain, Frayley. Not to mention Greene. Can’t believe I’m asking this but drop Kirk for Stephenson? 12 team H2H points. Go Big Red Machine.
Sure
no on Kirk
I actually had a bad dream about Bobby Witt Jr in which he turned into Adalberto Mondesi.
Haha
HiGrey,
I wanted to do a sanity check on my pitching staff
Max Scherzer
Luis Servino
Louie Varland
Reid Detmers
Pablo Lopez
Andrew Heaney
Merrill Kelly
Shane Bieber
Josiah Gray
Chris Sale
RP: Paul Seward and Craig KImbrel
Thanks again!!
1. No
Thanks for that common sense!
No problem
I’m in a 10 team redraft league with a 3 player bench at the moment. I have the following 7 players for 3 OF spots and 1 UTIL spot. Should I just keep the bench or lose one for a streaming spot?
Renfroe
Kelenic
Schwarber
Tellez
Soto
Santander
Gurriel Jr.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
Lose Santander
11 team, 5×5 roto (saves only). Team is listed below. I recently moved into 1st place for the first time this season.
C- MJ
1B- Goldy
2B- Semien
3B- Jung
SS- Bichette
OF- Tucker
OF- Schwarber
OF- Marte
UTIL- Kelenic
BN- Renfroe, Bregman
SP- Ryan, Kirby, Greene, Luzardo, Kelly
RP- Fairbanks, Kimbrel, Floro, King, Adam
1) I grabbed Jung off waivers (crazy, I know). So now I’m looking to trade Bregman. Not sure I’ll be able to get much, but I think I should target a SP or a closer. How do you feel about Bregman for Helsley? I’m not hurting for saves right now, but I could be once Puk and Alvarado return.
2) Who is the first RP off the team for you? King?
3) Would you drop Greene for Wacha? I like Greene and I’m a sucker for the Ks, but I took a look at his upcoming schedule and it’s not great. This is a pretty shallow league fyi. @CHC, @BOS, v. LAD, @STL, @HOU, v. ATL, @BAL
1. I’d take Hels 2. Adam 3. Yes
Hi Grey,
How would you rank Vargas, McLain, Amed Rosario and Royce Lewis (assuming he gets called up in June) ROS?
Thanks
McLain, Royce, Amed
Would you trade S.Murphy (I also have Will Smith) for Bregman (currently have Burger) in a 10 team?
Sure
Which is a better stream tonight?
J.P. France or Marco Gonzales?
who are they facing
Marco vs A’s
France @ MIL
Marco I guess, these are not good
Thanks, maybe I won’t stream today
No problem
NL only 5 x 5 Roto 10 team. ROS: Orlando Arcia or Matt McLain?
Thanks!
McLain
Ok to drop Michael Harris and/or Correa in a shallow 10 team league?
Meh
Talked about this on the FCL message board yesterday, but thought I’d mention it here too. There’s definitely something going on with pitch command/control.
There are currently 6 teams with sub-3 bb/9. 13 finished the year sub-3 last year.
There are 12 teams @3.5 or worse bb/9. Last year only 5 finished that bad.
Not sure if it’s sticky stuff or funky ball, but league average is 3.5/9. Has hovered mostly close to 3. Guessing the number may even go higher as injuries continue and pitching gets diluted.
Interesting to look at a few of the BB/9 rates for breakout pitchers:
Joe Ryan 1.29
Mitch Keller 2.01
Steele 2.35
Erod 1.91
Dunning 2.09
Not surprising, keep guys off base bc without the shift, BABIP must be up (guessing)
That’s interesting, I wonder if the ball is slipperier than usual
Bouncier ball=harder ball=sliperier ball
Haha, slippierish
Story (keeper for next 2 years) for Goldschmidt (not a keeper), which side?
thank you!
Also, would you do these deals?
Adames for NLowe
Adames for VinnieP
Sound fine, Vinnie 1st
Goldy
OK to move on from Singer? Could drop him for any below…
pls pick one for QS, Ks ROS
Heaney
Kopech
Houck
Garrett
Bradish
Kicuchi
Kremer
Corbin
Thanks in advance…
Heaney
Looks like Jordan Walker is improving at AAA, though the Cards seem pretty content with their current OF, and that’s before O’Neill and Carlson return from the IL. Maybe it’s unlikely at the moment, but if Walker were recalled today, who would he slot in just below/above in your 3B rankings?
He has no place to play
Rocco Baldelli is doing his best Joe Maddon impersonation. Taking guys out after one at bat (kiriloff) when a lefty comes in is out of control. Talk about micro management. The lefty was Manaea btw. It would be different if Randy Johnson into to the game.
Kiriloff had a 2 HR game recently. They were up comfortably in the 8th inning by like 8 runs. He took him out when a lhp reliever came in! The dude earned another at bat. It is so foolish for managers to ASSume young guys can’t hit lefties. You have to give them a chance before making them a platoon bat. Look at Kelenic this year. He got a chance and is doing fine.
So stupid. General baseball question: why are left-handed hitters perceived to be worse against left-handed pitchers than right-handed hitters are against right-handed pitchers?
Right handed hitters have faced righties their whole life so they’re used to them, bc if you can’t face a righty, you can’t make it to the MLB…
Yeah, that’s absurd
Who to start at U for the week:
Chapman (R) (6 games, [email protected], [email protected], faces 5 righties and Mcclanananahan)
Gunnar (L) (7 games, [email protected], 3vTEX and 1vCLE, faces 3 lefties and Gerrit Cole)
Chap
Who would you drop for Caballero?
Walls or Donovan
Neither yet
Ok thanks!
No problem
1. Please Rank the folloiwng for a 12 team 5×5 league with weekly lineups:
2-start Matz @CIN (-1.6) and vKC (13.2)
2-start Stroman vNYM (-9.0) and vTB (-12.7)
2-start Bobby Miller @ATL (-24.8) and vWAS (-2.5)
2-start Marco G vOAK (-1.0) and vPIT (-5.5)
2-start Boyd @KC (-5.7) and vTEX (-3.9)
RichHIll vTEX (-4.6) and @SF (-2.1)
Luzardo @LAA (0.1)
2. Dare I start any of them, and if so, which ones? Or sit them all?
If you can’t tell, I am a bit of a 2-start whore. Risking my ratios for the opportunity for wins and K’s.
Guess Hill, Luzardo…They all seem bad
Hi Grey,
Your help is always appreciated!
This is my current hitters line up after taking your recommendation to take Austin Riley.
C. Adley Rutschman
1B. Nathaniel Lowe
2B. Andres Gimenez
3B: Austin Riley
SS.Jeremy Pena
LF Yordan Alverez
CF Cedric Mullins
RF George Springer
BN
Salvador Perez (c)
Ezequel Duran (2B,3B and SS)
Josh Naylor (1B and RF)
Jorge Soler (LF and RF)
1.What are your thoughts? Are their areas of improvement or players to move?
2.While I am taking your advice about keeping Gimenez, does it make sense to start Ezequel Duran when he is hot. What would you recommend?
3.Should I hold Jeremy Perez for now?
Thanks again!!!
Martin
2. Start Duran 3. Drop for who
Thanks
Thanks for your ongoing help!
1. Stott 2. I’d take any of those guys for Sal Perez, my guess is you won’t get them
Thanks!!!
No problem
Starting Cease today?
no idea who he’s facing
AH – The Guardians of Cleveland, OH.
Seems fine
You know anything about Bellinger’s injury- is it considered minor?
Can’t seem to find out much..
thx
Seems minor
Hey Grey! Mainly as a bench player, but would you rather keep Torres or Paredes? Have Nico starting 2B, Treat Urner SS (although he’s not getting any treats right now), and JoRam at 3B.
Gleyber
Need OF help in 12 team 5×5
Have Marte, Verdugo, L. Thomas, J. Fraley
Drop any for Soler, Seiya, Gallo, Ozuna, McCutchen, L. Raley, or hold?
Lane for Soler
Thank you!!!
No problem
Is there any possibility that Harris gets sent down if he continues to struggle ? His projections still look solid and I was offered him for Morel…
Seems like a great chance to buy in for free, as I got Morel off the wire
Morel is a 20/20 guy, Harris is supposed to be…one guy is actually doing it and the other guy is not, you want the guy who’s not doing it?
Hey Grey!
Is Josh Lowe enough of a return to part ways with Dylan Cease?
Thanks as always!
You just asked this
Pick two for saves: Chafin, Pierce Johnson, Floro
Johnson, Floro
Hi Grey,

Martin
It’s too early who knows the lineups now for friday or saturday
Thanks. It is interesting that I have no pitchers except on Fri or Saturday.
Have a great day!
No problem
Shallow pts league daily, scores IP Ks Whip HRs rather Cobb @ Min @ Mil vs Bal or Elder vs Dodgers @ Oak @ Ari?
Cobb
Looking to offload Dylan Cease. Was offered Josh Lowe and I need help in OF. This is a no-brainer right?
Take Lowe and run
Thank you kindly sir
No problem
did you ever notice that Willie calhoun with the helmet he uses for NYY looks a lot like the great gazoo from the flintstones?
Haha, must be using Cervelli’s old helmet
I’m going to start my own fantasy site with fantasy leagues. No pitchers allowed. The only category will be homeruns. Then I’m going to petition MLB to produce a new network that only shows the day’s homeruns on a 24-hour loop. Yes, it will be called the dong show. Nothing but dongs. Dongs all the time. After all of that, my life’s work would be complete.
HAHA, I’ll play!
Trea Turner and MHII or B-Reynolds and Morel ? Falling behind in steals …

I wasn’t happy to see Evan Phillips come in the 5th inning yesterday. IMO, LAD is now a committee (with Gratarol). Even though I now carry 4(!) closers (Evan Phillips, Lange, Helsley, Estevez), I am still below the league average.
1 Who would be my RP cut if I decide to add a streaming SP?
2 FAs are Chafin, Fairbanks, Kimbrel, Pierce Johnson, and Finnegan. Who is the top pickup? And would it be reasonable for my worst RP?
1. Lange 2. Fairbanks
Aloha!
Dust off your crystal balls… end of the season, what do you think Michael Harris’ numbers will be?
Do you find it fascinating or just sad that no one seems to know what has happened to Juan Soto?
That missile Kelenic hit last night was off some high cheese by a lefty. Homeboy is hitting .349 against southpaws with 4 dongs. He’s for reals.

Any reason to think Snell turns things around, or meh all season? He was dropped in an 11 team redraft league.
