Yuli Gurriel will forever be known for the less-than-woke gesture he made in the playoffs, unless he were to do something even worse — “Hold on, it appears Yuli has taken the field with…uh…Is that pine tar on his entire face? Oh, man, that was misguided.” “Wait, is Yuli patting a rosin bag on his face and performing Kabuki theater on the mound? Oh, c’mon, Yuli.” “What on earth is Yuli thinking, he’s dressed like Nanook of the North and building an igloo out of Igloo coolers. This guy desperately needs to see Human Resources for some sensitivity training.” Funny in retrospect he made the Asian slight when his nickname is a mashup of two Asian names, Yu + Li. Any hoo! Was shocked to see him owned in less than 50% of leagues. Prior to his Spring Training injury, I had him ranked high, due to how much I wanted him. Sure, there’s some concern his injury could linger, but he’s well worth the flyer for his potential 20-homer power, .280-ish average and solid counting stats. Just hope he gets the sensitivity training he needs. Anyway, here’s some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:
BUY
Tucker Barnhart – Sadly, the Reds manager, Bryan Price was fired yesterday, so his nickname for Tucker may never go mainstream. It was good too, just changing the T to an F. Actually, that was his nickname for everyone.
C.J. Cron – Hitting .435 in the last week, and there is nothing I’d like to see more than Cron breakout after leaving The Sciosciapath. *genie appears from lamp* “Your wish is granted on Cron. Too bad, I was gonna make you a millionaire.” What!? No!!!
Jedd Gyorko – Yo, the Cards have five guys for every position. If I were managing that team, and it were a fantasy team, I’d make some trades. Never the hoo! Gyorko should see playing time and has power.
Colin Moran – Not entirely sure why C**nt Hurdle feels the need to platoon Moran. Maybe because he’s a moron? P to the erhaps. Moran has been worth platooning in deeper fantasy leagues, though.
Yonder Alonso – Might be finally coming out of his early-season funk, which is Bootsy Collins’ favorite kind of slump. Anything can stop him now…One player out of a groove…Gettin’ down just for the early-season funk of it…
Cesar Hernandez – As Cesar said about himself, “E pluribus get me if you need Runsus Maximus.”
Ketel Marte – Being real with you when I say I think I like the idea of Ketel Marte better than owning Ketel Marte. How is that actionable? Well, not sure it is, but Marte owned in less than 15% of leagues is baffling to me.
Christian Villanueva – Almost made Newtown the lede today, but Rudy pointed out he was hit on the hand and might have lingering injury concerns. So, instead, I made a guy who broke his hand the lede! Logic: It’s Not Just A Rapper On Jimmy Fallon.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa – The Pita King has been pretty hot. Hey, Isiah, give ’em the tahini!
Max Muncy – Justin Turner’s timetable + Kike – Muncy’s light power/no speed = How much I like K-Pax. Hmm, might’ve forgot to carry the one there. Was supposed to be ‘How much I like Max.’
Aledmys Diaz – Is it me or does Aledmys look like a composite sketch drawing? Where are your features, man? You’re just an oval! And not a good composite drawing! I could draw an oval with two eyes! Never the hoo! Diaz has hit for some power so far, and should play.
Gleyber Torres – Word on the streets of the Bronx is Gleyber could be promoted soon. I’m prolly looking at making Gleyber next week’s lead Buy, so I won’t be-Gleyber this.
Teoscar Hernandez – Just gave you my Teoscar Hernandez fantasy. It was written while putting fish scale on a fishing boat. I also go over Teoscar in the above video.
Lewis Brinson – “I’m totally out on Brinson. Just done with him. Sorry, he’s just not ready for the majors.” Three days later, “I just grabbed Brinson in every league!” At some point, Brinson is going to break out and be a top 40 outfielder. No idea if it’s now, but you have to grab him in case it is.
Matt Kemp – Has been hitting so well–Wait, Dave Roberts is saying I need to replace Matt Kemp in my Buy with Kike Hernandez. Damn.
Albert Almora Jr. – This one is all Hitter-Tron. Like licking hot fudge off an electric socket is all Hitter-Tron.
Mallex Smith – Likely won’t hit .370+ for the whole season, and his caught stealing percentage leaves some to be desired, but Michael Lewis is writing a book about the dearth of steals in the majors called, “Runnyball,” and if you need SAGNOF, you could do worse.
Tyler O’Neill – Here’s what I said the other day, “With Tommy Pham going through tests on his groin (hey now!), the Cards called up their slugging prospect, O’Neill. The Cards have so many bats, they could trade three outfielders and still have three solid outfielders (Bader, Jo-Ma and O’Neill — don’t make me show my math!). Prospector Ralph loves Tyler O’Neill in his top 100 prospects for 2018 fantasy baseball. He (O’Neill, not Ralph) looks like a low-ish average, 35-homer guy who doesn’t have playing time shored up. I grabbed him in two leagues just in case he plays, but could see dropping him by this weekend.” And that’s me quoting me!
Keynan Middleton – I don’t think the Angels’ pen is out of the proverbial woods (not Alex/Brandon), but Middleton is the guy as of now.
Bud Norris – Would be funny if, after the Holland signing, the Cards just went with Norris and Holland poorly worked the 8th. The peripherals back up Norris’ case for it, too. His K/9 is absurd. Absurd is an absurd word too, isn’t it? Any word that has a B as its second letter is just weird. Yo, B’s you make shizz weird. Obsequious, oblique, OB/GYN…Okay, last one might be just weird for guys.
Jose Alvarado – The bad news, the Rays may stay committed to Colome to drive up his trade value. The good news, Alvarado is worth owning even if he’s not getting saves.
Chris Devenski – I get the distinct impression that A.J. Hinch will never regain faith in Giles. He may need a trade, or accept his new role of closer in a committee.
Matt Albers – Fatt Blubbers may not be the closer. Though, no one may be the closer in Milwaukee. Wrap your noodle around that one! Obviously, Hader and Barnes should be owned too.
Nick Pivetta – Two weeks in a row, Pivetta’s made the Buy without being a Stream-o-Nator call, though SON likes him this weekend, too. Show Pivetta what he’s won! A Bed, Bath and Beyond 20% off coupon! Rad! Also, Pivetta was this week’s Hold in the video above, just in case any of youse were thinking about selling him.
Brent Suter – This is a Stream-o-Nator call like the call it makes to a Best Western to ask, “Do you have any rooms with people in them that want company?” Why is the Stream-o-Nator so lonely?
SELL
Jed Lowrie – Yes, sell the low-energy JED!, but let me say this, I’d own him in any league if he wasn’t already owned. So, I’m saying more that the Fantasy Baseball Buy/Sell Tool thinks he’s the biggest sell as of right now, and I don’t disagree if you can find anyone who thinks JED! is for real.
Johnny Cueto – He’s recaptured a lil’ something and/or something. Don’t have any quibble with that. He does not look like a 4.50+ ERA guy as he was last year. Plus, a solid pitchers’ park at home, and dat command tho. Has it working. However, I don’t trust him to stay on the field, and he’s still a 7.50-ish K/9 guy with a likely 3.70 ERA vs. the current 0.45 ERA. I’d go to the Fantasy Baseball Trade Analyzer to see what you can get for him. I wouldn’t sell him low for something like a birthday phone call from Kato Kaelin.
Do you believe in Jeimer Canderlario for the rest of the season? I picked him up when Rendon was banged up and has really produced.
drop or hold:
1. Domino Santana
2. Jason Kipnis
3. Ian Happ
I have a feeling Puig can’t wait for the calendar to flip to May
@Grey: weekly roto. Need to drop one of jon gray or Trevor Williams. Which one goes?
See where wainwright went to the DL with an inflamed era? Jack Russel Flaherty time!
Streaming Faria @ Balt vs Cobb. Son has him at +3.2.
Or Newcomb @ Cin-Son+3.3 or Minor vs Oak. Son +3.5
Which two do you like best. Leaning Faira and Minor
Thank you
Evening fml,
How much do you like Blackmon in a keeper?
Got offered Blackmon and crap (Matz and Rodney) for my Sale, Morton and Osuna…would be scrambling for pitching but nice bat…15 team keep 11
14 team h2h redraft with OBP over AVG, hits and total bases added for hitters, QS, K/9 added for pitchers. gotta drop a hitter to activate shark

Kela
Gausman (Home vs Indians / Home vs Tigers)
T Williams (Home vs Cards)
Wood (at Giants)
Tanaka (Home vs Twins / @ Angels)
Corbin (@Nationals)
Drop Heyward for Jacoby Jones? 15 team league
Should I drop Masdon or fields, for Jeffries or Richard bleier?
Should I drop pom for mikolas?
For what? Ratios? Saves? Sure, Pom for Mikolas
@Jubaka: well should i drop pom for bueler, or mikolas?
@Jubaka: it was for saves just hoping to get setup man that would be next in line..
Thanks for being here Grey. Devinski and Hader both are on the wire in a 11 team roto, start 10 pitchers. Grab both or just one? Already have two closers in the lineup. Not liking the two inning days for Hadar but love the ratios.
Hader
Hey boss playa. Just moved albies/Swanson/snell for Rizzo/Osuna. Needed the saves. Should I be worried about Rizzos back? Did I overpay or good time to trade for Rizzo?
Nope, sounds good
Hey Grey,
How do you rank Andujar, maikel Franco and David Dahl? Thanks !
Anudjar, Dahl
Can you rank: Dahl, Margot, Tucker, Peraza
Margot, Dahl
Please rank Ross, Velazquez or in form Ryu. Close? Drop Sonny gray for any of them or hold?
Ryu, VV — sure, lose Gray
Adam Frazier or Kiner-Falefa?
Isiah
@Brett: Is Buehler a better pick up then Flaherity or Maeda himself
No
@Grey: weekly roto, better bench bat? Teoscar or Villanueva?
In other news, my phone stopped autocorrecting roto to root. Small victories…
Villanueva, flip a coin
In a standard roto league, are you still feeling Castillo over Hill? Neither is looking so hot right now, but I strangely have more faith in Hill rebounding to his usual…and getting more wins.
Yes
Any chance Buehler stays up after Tuesday? Does he replace maeda? Or is that very unlikely?
Unlikely
Are you starting Buehler tomorrow? Do you like Buehler or Jack Flaherty better ROS?
Yes, I am…. Flaherty
Now they put Rendon on the DL. So it will be at least another week.
@VinWins: the part i don’t get is why does it only go to the 19th, he didn’t have any at bats since the 13th
@And Now the Jon Lovitz Dancers!: you can only backdate DL stint 3 days
@William Hung: oh, that explains that, but makes a whole lot of teams look really damn stupid a lot more often than i’d have thought.
@William Hung: how long has that rule been in place, as i’m pretty sure that in past seasons teams have waited longer than 3 days then backdated longer than only 3 days.
@And Now the Jon Lovitz Dancers!: I think it started when they went to 10-day DL.
Sounded headed that way
@Grey: OK, I guess I just figured if they were going to DL him, they wouldn’t wait 8 days.
man christ newtown does NOT slow down.
Hopefully not!
You even work on Sundays? What a guy! N. Cruz and J. Schoop or Trea Turner. Keeper league. Who you got 1) this year, 2) next year? 3) either close? Thank you.
Turner
colome with the kimbrel, might be fine now. this is while he continues to be overworked just like DAL did with d.murray when they knew he wasn’t going to be resigned for trade value.
Yeah
@Grey: you probably don’t get that exact reference, but football fans most certainly would. d.murray was a RB (WAS good during this story) who DAL knew from cap reasons (i.e. he was due a raise) they wouldn’t resign, so they gave him like 370 or so handles (times ball is carried per season by offensive player) one year about 4-5 years ago. it was the highest number in like 15 or so years by anybody (pretty sure) and since then d.murray hasn’t been nearly as good of a RB, but fantasy owners have still overpaid for him for at least the first 2 of those years after.
Yeah, no clue who that is
So I’m crazy light on steals and DeShizz was just dropped.
I don’t have any pitchers to drop – drop Domingo Santana for him?
Right now I’m starting Reddick, Mancini, and Thames all over Santana – I know it’s still early, but as it stands, there’s no path for Santana to even make my starting lineup – or the Brewers lineup for that matter.
Whatcha think – too early to move on from Domingo or make the switch due to needs?
Hope ya good weekend G! Waiting on baby ERad any day now.
Go for it
Norris pitches the 8th with a 6-2 lead.
@VinWins: and wasn’t used yesterday in the 9th with a save opp even though hicks was being used for a 2nd inning and didn’t do well in that 2nd inning (not that it mattered, norris should’ve been out there anyway, wasn’t tired at the time). holland was warming up yesterday when hicks had to get lucky with a DP.
@A Wesley Snipes Life: now it makes sense, holland was being ready to be used for a near save opp today.
@A Wesley Snipes Life: Yep.
Woo boy
I dropped Teoscar for Dahl, I hope I didn’t just make a massive mistake.
2nd batter of the game, Belt sees MLB record 21 pitches.
@VinWins: 12 minute, 45 second AB.
@VinWins: 49-pitch inning; 0 runs.
Damn, that’s nuts
Which closer do you prefer Rodney or kela?
Kela
Offered Cespedes and Duvall for my Schoop, who do you take ROS assuming Schoop comes back soon? Keeper league, if that matters, my team is in the gray zone of being competitive this year so a major difference in future value is relevant. I would use Semien to fill in as a MI, but my OF is in rough shape. Thanks!
Take it
@Grey: Thanks, I had thought given their positions and general projections Schoop would be more valuable (and you had Schoop ranked about 30 spots higher in the preseason), good to get your view to the contrary. Out of curiosity, if I decide I am looking to next year instead, do you still prefer Cespedes to Schoop? Thanks again.
Coin flip
@Grey: Much appreciated, thanks!
No problem
Grey
Quality starts instead of wins
Can you rank Flaherty gausman Eduardo Rodriguez maeda
Thanks
Maeda, Flaherty
@Grey: weekly roto. T Williams or Kennedy?
Williams, depends on matchups
Hey Grey,
Couple questions.
1. What is Renodn’s problem. Guy is being such a baby. It’s only a toe, you have nine others! And why didn’t they just put him on the DL immediately?! If this guy Kotchmans me all year with a bum toe, I’m gonna be so pissed.
2. 12 team, 6×6 w/OBP and IP. Is Jon Gray droppable now? I wanted to believe in him but the poor fella has been terrible. Trying to scoop up Dahl, could drop Gray, Holland (also not great), or Michael Taylor or Teoscar. Thoughts?
1. Ha, I hear ya 2. Teoscar or Dahl, prolly lean Dahl for now though Teoscar is likely better
@Grey: Thanks. Love the Funkadelic reference by the way!
Thanks!
sup G,
Dropped Choo for Senzel last Monday but then they changed their minds on his call up. He is probably weeks away. So he is wasting a lineup slot for me (we use bench spots to carry lots of SP since no innings limit).
SO: should I hold on to him? I mean I can pick up Choo again, or Gurriel, or Teoscar, or villaneuva, or Gleyber, or Brinson, or Franchy.
I need production! Doing poorly in hitting. Would you drop senzel for any of these (please rank)? Or drop an SP to hold on to senzel (quintana, anderson, manaea, jmontgomery, mikolas, erod, fulmer)?
Also flaherty coming uop: who from above would you drop for him?
Gleyber, Teoscar… Forget Senzel for now
@Grey: VIL! If you need a 3rd basemen. Teoscer is so hot too though.. ones is good with lefties, one is good with rights.. both are on not so good of teams.
Hey Grey!
1. Keep forever… $3 Albies or $3 Bellinger?
2. Gotta drop a pitcher to make room for Deshizz….who you dropping?
Wacha
Yonny Chirinos
Tropeano
Other option would be to drop my $0 Mateo prospect stash, but I’d rather not since he could be very interesting later in the year.
Bellinger — Trop
@Grey: thanks!
No problem
10 team AL only h2h. somebody just dropped your son (NYY pitcher). QS over wins. i have
gibson, otani, j.garcia, happ, pom, archer, morton, skaggs (karns DL).
1. gibson is the drop i’d assume
2. how much FAAB (100 starting) for gray?
3. also, same league, bout time to drop grichuk (losing playing time) for jacoby jones (who’s a WHITE guy somehow), very surprised jones hasn’t been added yet after his last 4 games. OBP over AVG, net steals over steals, total bases added.
1. Yes 2. $6 3. Sure
Add Domingo Santana or Christian Villanueva over Kinsler, DeJong, Mancini, Choo, Reddick, or Billy Hamilton? 5×5 scoring.
Meh, you have no one to drop
15 team roto dynasty, net saves and holds one stat. have hand/kelvin/n.jones/nicasio/fields and yates just off DL. who’s the drop?
No easy call here…Fields I guess
Cron or josh Bell Ros OPS league
Cron
What side does Villanueva for Reddick favor in an ESPN 14 team 5×5 league?
Reddick
12 team keep 6 league,$100 budget and im in 5th just 6 points out of 1st,i need Starting pitching so how much to bid for Flaherty and hope he stays up,Also how much to bid on Dahl in same league assuming u would drop Teoscar for him
Nice disguise! Haha…. $7 on Flaherty, $2 on Dahl
@Grey: dolp!!thanks
No problem, Charlie Harper.
Pick up Inciarte, Haniger, or Dahl over R. Zimmerman, Villanueva, or Gardner?
Thanks!
Haniger over Villa
I snagged Gleyber in my OBP keeper league. Which bench bat gets dumped as a result? Ketel or Peraza?
Peraza
8 x 8 league with TB, OBS, and Slugging
Would you drop anyone for Kurt Suzuki, Dahl, D. Santana, S. Gray, Stroman?
C – mccann
1b – goldy
2b – taylor
3b – shaw
ss – swanson
of – harper, k. davis, upton
util – devers, villanueva
bench – happ, dickerson
DL – odor, bogaerts
Sp – wacha, strausburg, godley, cueto, taillon, mccullers, ryu
rp – colome, wade davis, treinen, diaz
Thanks!
Happ for Domingo; Dickerson for Dahl
12 team dynasty. just noticed delino is back, who’s my drop:
C kraken
1B desmond (OF)
2B asscab (SS/3B)
SS correa
3B bregman (SS)
OF (3) judge, pollock, cespedes
util (2) grandy, delino
BN kepler, leonys, kipnis (2B/OF)
i’d guess leonys who i added for the speed i lost when delino is out. would guess it’s him or kepler (grandy far too hot thus far, kipnis i need for 2B when asscab either gets cold or another 2B/SS has off day)
Kepler
I’m one over on games played at 3rd base. So sitting villanueva at Patrick Corbin is good for the batting average right? Should I bench villanueva at Corbin house today? In favor of no body.
I’d start him
Drop Domingo or CarGo for Dahl in weekly points league or stick with Santana and ride out the slump?
Chance that Dahl may only get a cup of coffee in COL while CarGo out and Parra suspended?
14 tm h2h weekly points format.
CarGo
Buxton starting a rehab assignment today with the hopes of a return to the majors on Wednesday.
Nice
Hey Grey,
A trade went through in my league and the managers are deciding whether or not to veto.
Which side? And is it even close?
Side 1
Delino DeShields and wade Davis
Side 2
Josh Donaldson
Thank you
It’s fair enough
Need a streamer spot
Who’s the drop
Haniger, Ohtani (hitter), Mancini, wacha, Trevor Williams, teoscar, chirinos (pitcher)
Or don’t stream and hold another week with these guys till it becomes more clear since its h2h and I’m up 16-3 this week 1st place in the league
Williams, though I don’t know his upcoming matchups
Flaherty getting the call up for Waino.
Woohoo!
Bench bat: Teoscar or Dahl (as speculative add)
Thanks
14T h2h, pretty competitive
Tough call, I’d hold Teoscar
Would you start any of these pitchers today. I am winning bug this week.
Corbin at home vs SD
Severino at home vs Toronto
Pivetta at home vs PIT
Thanks as always
Sit them if you don’t need the starts
Grey,
I have 100 or so AB’s before Miguel Andujar has to stay on my roster. The question is that I will have to drop someone when the time comes. My choices are: Fowler, Markakis, Thames or Brian Anderson. Who is the odd man out?
Markakis
@Cohen: just saw Cargo DL
Grey, was going with Tyler Oneill batty call but Dahl in Rockies lineup. Was going to grab Dahl. What do u think?
Grab Dahl!
Starting Trevor Williams at Philly today?
I am, but my league might be deeper than yours
Billy Hamilton became a FA in my league so I ended up getting him without needing to use my waiver priority and decided to drop Archie Bradley
My team is now:
C- Grandal
1B – Abreu
2B – Kingery
3B – Rendon
SS – Lindor
OF – Eddie Rosario, Puig, Betts
UTIL – Travis Shaw
Bench – B-Hamilton, Chris Taylor
DL – Odor
SP – Pivetta, Corbin, Archer, Severino, Bauer
RP – Colome, Brach, Devenski, Boxberger, Greene
In a 10 team league, 2 bench bats are usually not necessary but I can’t decide on who to drop for a streaming pitching spot. What do you think?
Makes sense, you should make a trade
@Grey: Takes 2 to tango – my league is incredibly tough to trade in. Last season I pulled off 0 trades…
I hear ya
@Grey: Following up below on the Dahl post, do you see someone I should drop for Dahl?
Format is 5 standard bat cats with Ks and OBP added on
Nope
Rendon was supposedly available yesterday, so I’m starting him today. He is 12/19 with a HR vs Wood.
Is he in the lineup? Doesn’t sound good for him
@Grey: It’s the late game, so I’m just guessing.
Gotcha
And no Happ. I probably had him on more teams than Acuna, since he was often available on waivers. But I’m done.
I hear ya
10 team redraft
1. Jon Gray a streamer?
2. Lose Jon Gray for Paxton who was just dropped?
Thanks man
2. Yes
Starting Matt Moore vs Oakland?
Nope
Archer>Quintana>Keuchel in preseason. Do you feel they still hold they same relative ranking ROS?
Yup
I have a logjam of starting pitchers (Ray, Greinke, Keuchel, Ohtani, Bauer, Porcello and Samardzija still on the DL). I was thinking of packaging Ohtani and Cano and trying for Altuve. Would this be a good deal? Fair? Thanks.
For you
Is my new friend Andujar going to lose PT to Torres?
Probably hear “Sonavabench!” a few times on Manaea today.
Think so, but not all of his PT
@Grey: Thanks! I see Andujar is playing while Torres starts at 2B today.
Nice!
I thought I asked this already but I don’t see it answered so..
1 .Should I drop fields for alverado..
2. Should I drop Pomeranz for gsellmen, jarlin, stratton, gray, Cahill.
Keep in mind Oakland has been on fire against lefties so far this season. Especially Lowrie who I think went 4 for 4 against pom.
1. Sure 2. Hold
@Grey: thanks I just meant didn’t my post anywere..
Who Should I start today in my utility?
Teoscer vs Severino @ ny
Myers vs Corbin @ arizona
Tim Anderson vs mccullers @ chicago
Teoscar
Deep 12 team points league. Stratton, Tyler Anderson, Hammel are available, they better options than my Estrada and Jaime Garcia? Which two if so, for who?
Also Mac or Franchy?
Thanks!
Mac… Stratton, Hammel
12 team 5×5 keeper, 3 bench spots
Drop Willie Calhoun for Brinson?
Trying to be patient, but not sure it’s worth it.
Yes
H2H 5×5 STD 12-team
I’m giving Machado, Corbin, Lowrie
I’m getting J.Ram, Gordon, and 2 scrubs.
I intend to counter replacing 2 scrubs with Ray.
Trade analyzer says this is a landslide even without Ray, but what do you think about it?
Complete hitters in addition to Machado are: Grandal, Bellinger, Schoop, Segura, Trout, Marte, Buxton, E. Rosario, Conforto, T. Anderson, and Moistasskiss
My only concern is power loss if JRam can’t scrape 20+ together this season.
Pitching (if I can’t get Ray on a counteroffer) is:
C. Martinez, L. Castillo, T. Bauer, Pomeranz, Lucchesi, Junis
Rivero, Herrera, Strickland, Giles, Hader
Scrubs in the offer are T. Roark & J. Garcia
Looks decent for you, not really close
@Grey:
Thanks for the input. I’m just highly attached to Machado apparently!
So… 5-category Jewish Villanueva!
Haha
No-no for Manea over the BoSox.
Yup
Yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu stink!
Paxton 84 pitches after 3 innings. Smh.
I hate all my teams.
@FrankGrimes:
Me too, and my teams are doing well…
@Grey:
Ya well most of mine are not hahha.
Freakin Rizzo can’t even get going in Coors.
@FrankGrimes: Rizzo-fer
I know, so frustrating
Haha, yup
Semien , Odor or DeShizz?
Odor

i put it out to my league that I am looking for SP. Guy asks me who I want for odor or D. Murphy.
He has: Carasco, CMart, Nola, Porcello, Skaggs, L. Weaver.
Which of those guys would be fair value for odor or murphy?
Any of the 1st 4
Drop oneil for story, lamb, or ender?
Bench player
Story
So I had a nice $2 bid in for Gleyber for waivers Sunday night, trying to beat the call up but with him coming up you can throw that bid amount out the window. 100 fab minimum bid is $1. How much would you bid on Torres? Pivetta went for 5 Sunday Jose Martinez went for 11 on the opening weekend to give you some perspective
Thanks
$14
Kingery or Gleyber ROS? Thanks.
Kingery
@Grey: would you put Piscotty between Haniger and Dickerson in the list above? Thanks again.
Not quite what I was hoping for from Suter.
Nope
Starting wisler @ reds after his 1 good start?
Sure, in some leagues
@Grey: @Bbb: I picked him up today to stream him for next week. 14 team, 5×5 roto.
It’s Gleyber time, Grey! Finally!
Nice!
Holy shit, Danny Farquhar.
What?
Grey you’re not starting Quintana tomorrow are you?
Don’t own him, but wouldn’t start him
yates is back, for holds, K/9 league 16 team roto dynasty i have these already: kimbrel, tepera, green, rivero, neris, morrow and yates in DL slot.
so which guy is best out of yates, tepera, arano, hirano?
Yates
Sonny Gray is unstartable right now. Do you think 1) Jose Martinez, 2) Dickerson, 3) Haniger would all be good swaps if I can move him in a 12 team mixed? That order? Will I get laughed at? Thanks!
I’d take Jo-Ma over Haniger
@Grey: In that case I’ll try to get Jo-Ma, then Haniger, then Dickerson if all else fails, thanks Grey (who, unlike Gray, does not disappoint).
No problem
@Grey: my response isn’t showing up, so trying with another name, sorry for the multiple posts if it eventually shows up…where would you put Piscotty in the list above? After Haniger? Thanks!
@Question: Piscotty is last
@Grey: got it, thanks!
@Grey: I think this slipped through, just curious for your thoughts, thanks!
Hey Grey,
Wacha, Skaggs, Ryu & Buehler are free agents in my RCL. Upgrade over anyone I have?
Godley, Berrios, Weaver, Lucchesi, Greene, Box, Kela, Middleton
Thanks!
Meh, maybe Ryu over Weaver but more about matchups
Looking to move a closer. What rank of a hitter do you think I could get for Boxberger?
Thanks
Cruz
Grey,
I am looking to get Victor Arano off waivers. Which reliever should I drop to get him? Bryan Shaw or Gabriel Moya? Thanks.
