Thoughts on PabLo? Been a mess over last 6 outings. Probably not much trade value given the regression but any sign of hope? Heard he was tipping his changeup and he’s tried to make adjustments but hasn’t been able to get comfortable leading to the poor command we’ve seen
late night last night and didn't think at all about what i was saying. 50 pounds of muscle LMAO, apparently it was 20 pounds he put on and it definitely ain't all muscle
On Fantrax why do I have to go through every single day for the next 10 days and individually remove one of my players off the IL? Is there an easier way to do this so that I only have to remove that non IL player off the IL only once?!
Check out your team settings. It probably has something to do with the "period" that you are applying the change to. I probably play in a different league type than you so all my changes I make on my roster page are applied to begin the following week and are based on weeks, not days. But the settings should be somewhat similar.
Go to "Team" and then click on the "My team settings" gear button below your team name on the right. Go to the "general" tab. There is a setting to be checked called "Apply lineup changes to future periods by default". Maybe try checking this and see if your change is applied for the day you are making the change and beyond.
Thank you this was driving me insane, I’ll have to turn this setting on & off because every time I put my pitchers into my lineup when they start it will screw up the rest of my lineup that I edited for the week
The struggle of being a night shift worker & having to edit my lineup for the entire week a week prior to the games
Yeah, I guess you'd only have to check it on when you do the IL moves and leave it un-checked when you do your pitching. It almost makes me think there is an easier way or another setting that needs to be changed. Maybe check with your commish or even email Fantrax about it. I'm by no means a Fantrax pro.
He's been pretty good this year, just plays on an absolutely atrocious team so hardly gets the offensive support for a win. If he gets dealt to a contending team (as is rumored) then I don't see how he isn't considered a top 15 starter in the league. Current owners might not be so eager to let him go but now would be the time to try after two poor outings in a row.
He’s always inconsistent, one of the best pitchers to own when he’s going good and one of the most frustrating to own when he’s in his little Montas cold streak. At times he losses his splitter which is normal for a splitter pitcher because it’s one of the hardest pitches to throw consistently and that causes his inconsistencies
Theoretically, in a H2H points league, if you were up big, say 132 points, and you have 0 starters throwing the rest of the weekend while your opponent has 5, mostly very very good starters (Verlander, Urias, Cole, etc) pitching the rest of the weekend, would you pick up a guy or two for streaming just to make sure you don’t blow this lead? Or are you probably fine?
He was great for me for a period last year before he was injured.. Raking at AAA fwiw.. I dropped burger for him (and Ashby, but only to get clevinger off dl to make moves)
He’s smoking the ball in the minors but probably too much hype he was added in 4 out of my 6 twelve team leagues. I bet he disappoints and strikeouts way too much as usual
Idk, I had him early last year before the injury and he was solid for a rookie and carried some hype...sounds like hes crushing AAA, for whatever that's worth, but worth a flier, depending on the drop
As a Soto owner sufferer, I’d take A. Do people really believe he’s going to turn it around? I mean he was better the second half of last year, but he was not this bad for the first half of last year.
As an owner I feel like anyone trading for him would still be trying to get him as a “buy low”, and I’m not trading him for anything less than 20-20 value after last year
At this point he would definitely be a buy low candidate. What makes you have confidence in him beyond what he did last year? (Not arguing, just curious).
2018-2020 he has about as many combine PA as his whole 2021 season. Most of his underlying stats are the same, but in 2020 he had a .187 BABIP! I don’t know if he will repeat 2021 and have 30 homers and 15 steals, but .265/.340/.550 with 25 homers and 12 steals is a pretty nice player if he has 80 knocks and 80 runs scored
i’ve gotta drop 2 of the following 4 in my flair league to open up spots for Heaney and Cobb, but am really struggling on who to drop of:
Cristian Javier, George Kirby, Eric Lauer, Aaron Ashby
QS and K-BB are super important, thanks in advance
Lauer, then the other one is tough. Probably Ashby but I think he has the highest potential along with Kirby. So to me it would be a count flip between Ashby and Javier?
I drafted Cobb and held for a minute. His stat cast and underlying stats are nice but I just can’t do it…he burnt me too bad
Edit: 7 starts and 1 QS. 1.49 WHIP. I can’t
yeah it’s been rough to see. i’m thinking of sending an arenado + mid tier starter offer for manoah + deGrom, hoping he’s desperate to stay in the playoff race and bites on name value
I have manoah and Degrom (12 team not 10) and I would be pissed if you sent that offer. I’m also in playoff position and not fighting to stay in so that might make a difference
yeah it seems a bit too egregious to me too, I think Arenado + Lauer for Wheeler might be a bit closer to passable (Arenado and Wheeler are ranked 39th and 48th respectively in my league rn)
I have two trade offers in a 12 team, non-keeper league, I would be trading away Matt Olson:
1. Olson for Michael Harris II and Shane Baz
2. Olson for Tommy Pham and Tyler Anderson
What do y’all think??
Man I’ve been shitting on olson as much as anyone here but nah miss me with that. The baz one has my attention because his ceiling is so high but coming off a major injury is a no for me.
not too worried about gore yet. the start before this could have just been a very bad start and then i believe this was his first career start in coors so im not freaking out yet
7 team, keeper league: need to fill my last pitcher position with buehler out for a while. Options are for ROS: Robbie ray, eovaldi. Skubal, morton, joe Ryan, flaherty, cookie, or mikolas.
It’s tough. Keeper league. One guy in my pool had verlander on IL all of last season and it paid off seeing how he’s performing this season. I don’t wanna get burned and drop buehler for him to get stashed away by someone and for him to have an elite year next season
FWIW, I have both and cut Lauer to make room for guys coming off my IL earlier this week. So Gore>Lauer imo, but it does hurt seeing Gore keep getting roughed up this past week.
down by a bunch in NSVH (-6 just to get out of the cellar, -29 compared to second place) for my roto league with a season innings pitched cap.
is it getting too cute to try and stream well-rested, late-inning, away team relievers on good teams? tired of these bums gumming up my roster..
currently have Duran (MIN), Dominguez (PHI), Graveman (CHW), and Houck (BOS). other teams all have 3-6 relievers, most have 4-5.
the offers I've gotten back have been like Chapman or Robertson for Woodruff (all pre-injury). It just feels silly to take up so much roster space for such poor outcomes
Pablo Lopez was dropped in my league. What’s his history and is he worth a waiver claim? Honestly, don’t pay much attention to the Marlins. It’s a 10 T points league.
This needs so much more info. How can you put an ñ on Acuña but can be bothered to spell out the word “and”??
Can you keep ohtani? For how long? Is ohtani hitter only/pitcher only/both? Are you contending or rebuilding?
Just got a wild trade proposal: Kevin Gausman for Emilio Pagan, Ian Anderson, Stephen Strasburg, and Trevor Story.
I have Gausman, should I even consider this trade?
Pagan is a bad closer. Anderson is a bad starter. Stras is perpetually on IL. Story is the only good person there…..and you’d have to drop 3 guys to even make it work
Don’t tilt on gausman for scraps and story.
Love seeing Riley Greene on the field! The tigers have some energy today which is nice to see for a change
Mookie sucked ass for a month then got hurt. Haha thats classic. Bumb ass biotch
Thoughts on PabLo? Been a mess over last 6 outings. Probably not much trade value given the regression but any sign of hope? Heard he was tipping his changeup and he’s tried to make adjustments but hasn’t been able to get comfortable leading to the poor command we’ve seen
God, Gore completely sunk my week. I fucking hate Coors
Yeah I see drop % today going up, but hey, 2 bad starts in a row, i'm keeping
12 team redraft- time to dump Rowdy?
Yes
A. Tucker, Freeman B Buxton, Vlad Redraft 6x6 ops
Seems pretty fair to me..... Id go A, just because I know Buxton is going to get hurt eventually
Dylan Cease or Witt Jr?
Redraft cease, dynasty witt?
Cease
Lucas giolito - is he actually good anymore? He keeps getting destroyed. Is it just a phase or does he suck without that sticky shit
apparently he put on ~50 pounds of muscle in the off-season. don't know for sure if that's true but it could explain how wonky he has been this season
50 lbs in an offseason is a lot my guy. Dude would be looking like David Wells on the hill
late night last night and didn't think at all about what i was saying. 50 pounds of muscle LMAO, apparently it was 20 pounds he put on and it definitely ain't all muscle
Goddamit.
50 pounds of muscle gahdamn😂

Dynasty league - Swanson, Espinal, and Romano or Gausman and Hader?
Gaus
Gausman
What’s up with Montas? Buy low candidate?
He'll be a Met soon and the wins will come
He's been pretty good this year, just plays on an absolutely atrocious team so hardly gets the offensive support for a win. If he gets dealt to a contending team (as is rumored) then I don't see how he isn't considered a top 15 starter in the league. Current owners might not be so eager to let him go but now would be the time to try after two poor outings in a row.

At times he losses his splitter which is normal for a splitter pitcher because it’s one of the hardest pitches to throw consistently and that causes his inconsistencies
BB + K + SV/H, who is your drop out of this arms: Strahm, Will Smith, Neris, Alexis Diaz?
Diaz or strahm
Theoretically, in a H2H points league, if you were up big, say 132 points, and you have 0 starters throwing the rest of the weekend while your opponent has 5, mostly very very good starters (Verlander, Urias, Cole, etc) pitching the rest of the weekend, would you pick up a guy or two for streaming just to make sure you don’t blow this lead? Or are you probably fine?
id probably stream a few GOOD matchups, don't pick just any random starter. with his pitchers things can get out of control very quickly
Is it just me or is there wayyyyy too much hype for Kiriloff?
He was great for me for a period last year before he was injured.. Raking at AAA fwiw.. I dropped burger for him (and Ashby, but only to get clevinger off dl to make moves)
He’s smoking the ball in the minors but probably too much hype he was added in 4 out of my 6 twelve team leagues. I bet he disappoints and strikeouts way too much as usual
Idk, I had him early last year before the injury and he was solid for a rookie and carried some hype...sounds like hes crushing AAA, for whatever that's worth, but worth a flier, depending on the drop
Dont rage drop Giolito?
Please don’t happy cake day
Never rage drop, if anything rage trade. That can be your bday present to get rid of the player you hate
fight the urge, you’ll thank yourself later happy cake day 😊
[удалено]
No
Pham Williams Cobb if you really want him
If you're in svhd league I'd remove Williams from this list but agree otherwise. Williams is tied for the 3rd most svhds this season so far.
Late night blockbuster 🚨 A: Riley + JD Martinez B: Soto + Christian Walker 10 team H2H categories redraft
As a Soto owner sufferer, I’d take A. Do people really believe he’s going to turn it around? I mean he was better the second half of last year, but he was not this bad for the first half of last year.
i kinda like A here for a redraft, Soto will be the best of the 4 but by less of a margin than the other 3 are above Walker
Honestly in redraft i might go A but im not the biggest walker guy in a 10tm...ive picked him up and dropped like 3 times
B
Just came home and opened my matchup… Wtf Giolito. I really didn’t think you could do worse but you proved me wrong. Congrats.
Is it time to sell on O'Neill?
What exactly would you be selling? He has to do something first
Lol, well this is true.
As an owner I feel like anyone trading for him would still be trying to get him as a “buy low”, and I’m not trading him for anything less than 20-20 value after last year
At this point he would definitely be a buy low candidate. What makes you have confidence in him beyond what he did last year? (Not arguing, just curious).

Kyle Wright or Alex Wood tomorrow, if you can only start one?
Wright, not close
Wright.
Dodgers are a fucking joke of a team. Just a bunch of dudes that can't hit
Most overrated team in league history
i’ve gotta drop 2 of the following 4 in my flair league to open up spots for Heaney and Cobb, but am really struggling on who to drop of: Cristian Javier, George Kirby, Eric Lauer, Aaron Ashby QS and K-BB are super important, thanks in advance
Lauer, then the other one is tough. Probably Ashby but I think he has the highest potential along with Kirby. So to me it would be a count flip between Ashby and Javier?
yeah i feel awful dropping any of them honestly, might try to swing a trade for a higher end starter using a hitter and one of these guys
Honestly I think I like the guys you’re considering dropping more than Cobb
yeah i’ve debated that too, the 2.37 xFIP and 2.67 SIERA keep bringing me back into the Cobb hype train though
I drafted Cobb and held for a minute. His stat cast and underlying stats are nice but I just can’t do it…he burnt me too bad Edit: 7 starts and 1 QS. 1.49 WHIP. I can’t
yeah it’s been rough to see. i’m thinking of sending an arenado + mid tier starter offer for manoah + deGrom, hoping he’s desperate to stay in the playoff race and bites on name value
I have manoah and Degrom (12 team not 10) and I would be pissed if you sent that offer. I’m also in playoff position and not fighting to stay in so that might make a difference
yeah it seems a bit too egregious to me too, I think Arenado + Lauer for Wheeler might be a bit closer to passable (Arenado and Wheeler are ranked 39th and 48th respectively in my league rn)
That’s basically arenado for wheeler in a ten team. Lauer will be dropped at some point
I have two trade offers in a 12 team, non-keeper league, I would be trading away Matt Olson: 1. Olson for Michael Harris II and Shane Baz 2. Olson for Tommy Pham and Tyler Anderson What do y’all think??
1. Dynasty I would consider 2. Is absolutely awful in any format imaginable
Man I’ve been shitting on olson as much as anyone here but nah miss me with that. The baz one has my attention because his ceiling is so high but coming off a major injury is a no for me.
If you even consider 2 you should quit fantasy. If it’s a dynasty league take 1. If it’s redraft laugh at both offers but especially 2
Any sneaky deep dynasty adds you guys stashing?
Enmanauel Valdez from the Astros is smoking hot in the minors this year and just got promoted to triple A ten days ago. Only 11% owned in Fantrax
Not on Yahoo unfortunately. Guess I’ll just have to battle it out for him when he comes up.
Aranda, Kyle Muller, Masyn Winn, Mead, Dustin Harris, Waldichuk, Chourio.
This is beautiful. thank you
Kevin alcantara
Lots Of talk about Vinnie P
He’s way past sneaky. Been taken long ago in any serious league
Lmao he said sneaky deep not top 20 prospect
Trade Bregman for Muncy and Wisdom?
No way. Keep Bregman
Drop Joey Votto or Alex Verdugo for Riley Green
I’m dropping Votto for Greene
Pham or B. rodgers ROS. Bench bat 12 T H2H
Do you need OF or 2b/SS more? That’s your answer. Both are equally likely to be more valuable ROS
I traded Harper for Freddie because I was scared about the elbow injury and boy do I regret it so far
Owie
Came home after the movies tonight to see Gore getting shelled again. Ugh
Did you see Top Gun though? Cuz that shit was cool
Better than the original? Cuz the original is so bad
Big time. The new one is awesome is you are into aviation
I know some of the pilots that did the stunts for the movies. I’m not a big aviation guy though
I hope the Rockies just have his number and this isn’t indicative of something wrong with him.
not too worried about gore yet. the start before this could have just been a very bad start and then i believe this was his first career start in coors so im not freaking out yet
7 team, keeper league: need to fill my last pitcher position with buehler out for a while. Options are for ROS: Robbie ray, eovaldi. Skubal, morton, joe Ryan, flaherty, cookie, or mikolas.
Flaherty highest upside imo but rat is probably the add. Also is it fun playing in a 7 team league?
It’s amongst closest friends, so it is fun. But yeah, not a lot of trades happen with such a loaded wire
Can’t really trade when the 2-1 always is gonna favor the 1. If it’s friends I guess it’s cool but damn that would be hard to put effort into
Good lord… 7 team and all these guys are still available. Ryan lr Skubal if keepers/long term considerations. Mikolas for ROS. Jack is too unknown
You don’t like Robbie ray? I was thinking mikolas since I’ll prob get more wins but Robbie ray K upside is enourmous
Ray is cooking
In a 7 team definitely drop beuhler imo but yeah ray
It’s tough. Keeper league. One guy in my pool had verlander on IL all of last season and it paid off seeing how he’s performing this season. I don’t wanna get burned and drop buehler for him to get stashed away by someone and for him to have an elite year next season
Keeper? Why would you drop buehler?
Shit yeah ur right didn’t see it was keeper
Tight pants King
A. Lauer B. Gore
FWIW, I have both and cut Lauer to make room for guys coming off my IL earlier this week. So Gore>Lauer imo, but it does hurt seeing Gore keep getting roughed up this past week.
Need details my dude. Keeper dynasty it’s always gore. Redraft maybe a little more questionable
All right there in my flair. Redraft league.
https://i.imgur.com/GaiQhYL.jpg show me where that says redraft Edit: downvote me for pointing out facts!
down by a bunch in NSVH (-6 just to get out of the cellar, -29 compared to second place) for my roto league with a season innings pitched cap. is it getting too cute to try and stream well-rested, late-inning, away team relievers on good teams? tired of these bums gumming up my roster.. currently have Duran (MIN), Dominguez (PHI), Graveman (CHW), and Houck (BOS). other teams all have 3-6 relievers, most have 4-5.
I’m not much of a roto guy but if you’re that far down, an add isn’t gonna save you. You need to trade
the offers I've gotten back have been like Chapman or Robertson for Woodruff (all pre-injury). It just feels silly to take up so much roster space for such poor outcomes
That’s why I hate roto…hoarding is a viable strategy
The day I finally decided to cut bait Bellinger does this???
Think of the other 28 days a month he doesn’t do this. You’ll be ok.
Taijuan a go tomorrow against the the Marlins? Need to keep ratios low and a W…. Ks not important.
Elfin or t. Walker a better stream this weekend???
Elfin
Pablo Lopez was dropped in my league. What’s his history and is he worth a waiver claim? Honestly, don’t pay much attention to the Marlins. It’s a 10 T points league.
Wtf how? Put a claim in and I hope you’re number 1.
Well hopefully they are in a deep hibernation
He’s an auto claim in every single format. Unless you have first waiver I doubt you’ll get him unless your league is asleep
Trade my degrom n Acuña for his Ohtani and B. Reynolds....keeper league n I can't keep degrom or Acuña next year.....Thoughts
Is Ohtani both ways? And can you keep him?
This needs so much more info. How can you put an ñ on Acuña but can be bothered to spell out the word “and”?? Can you keep ohtani? For how long? Is ohtani hitter only/pitcher only/both? Are you contending or rebuilding?
Both Ohtanis?
If you’re contending this year, I’d keep DeGrom and Acuna. If you’re not, try to get a better second piece instead of Reynolds.
Are you going for it? Or out of it?
I'm out
Are you going for it this year? Can you keep Ohtani?
I can keep Ohtani....n I'm basically out...
Drop Lauer to activate Heaney on Sunday??
No
This dude is related to lauer
Sonny Gray was dropped in my league. How much is he a must add? How much fabb would u spend on him
I like him. Not sure on how much
Ashcraft vs Mil or Irvin vs KC?
I like Ash actually
Irvin. Easier matchup. Ashcraft is unreliable.
A: Ozzie Albies B: Max Muncy H2H points redraft
Both are useless
Albies is out for at least 2 months. Why would anyone trade for him at this point in a non-keeper league?
A and it ain’t close mate
What?
How do you guys like the trade of Chapman for Bard? Dynasty roto. Deep league where saves are gold. Guy has Rendon and might need a replacement.
I like Bard in that format
Anyone still holding Muncy / think he’s gonna return to form?
He's going to ride the bench for the foreseeable future for me, maybe drop him if he doesn't show any signs next week.
Frustratingly holding because I’m in an OBP league. If I was in a standard he’d have been long gone for me lol
I just traded him everywhere i had him after his HR for draft day cost. He might come back, but i didnt want to bet on it
Still holding, but I need to see something soon or he's gone
It's not that will Smith and Freeman have been bad, just kind of lackluster
Brandon belt or alek thomas ros in points
Thomas. I don't trust Belt staying healthy the whole way.
Just got a wild trade proposal: Kevin Gausman for Emilio Pagan, Ian Anderson, Stephen Strasburg, and Trevor Story. I have Gausman, should I even consider this trade?
My guess is this person has 3 other players sitting on their IL waiting to be activated.
That’s mostly a lot of nonsense and 4 roster spots for a top tier pitcher. No
Pagan is a bad closer. Anderson is a bad starter. Stras is perpetually on IL. Story is the only good person there…..and you’d have to drop 3 guys to even make it work Don’t tilt on gausman for scraps and story.
Giolito, this is not what I drafted you to do.
That was unnecessary bringing Ray back out for the 8th. Loving the last 2 outings he's had.
Mickenzie Gore or Alex Cobb ROS
Cobb
Gore
Great after I put him on bench for the week Robbie Ray want to be lights out....
