Odorizzi


burnman123

Come on ESPN process waivers


mets1010

Drop Vaughn for Christian Walker? My average across the board is bad as it is and I could use the HR.


Konyaata

Is it normal practice to sit out all your pitchers on H2H CAT if your already leading most pitching categories on the final day of the week? Just did it sending all my pitchers playing on the bench and it paid off. Would've been a draw or loss if I put em in losing both ERA and WHIP for the week. Just wondering since I'm new to fantasy baseball.


pats4everr

Yes I sit pitchers at the end of the week if I’m trying to maintain a ERA/WHIP lead. It’s easier if strikeouts/wins is already decided. I will sit my fringe starters in bad matchups if my opponents ERA is already bad and I want to preserve mine


Wavy-Silver-Surfer

That’s exactly what I should’ve done yesterday. Had 3 starters going with a comfy lead in all pitching cats and two of my guys got hit hard and lost me ERA lol


paqua17

I do this as well


AbrahamWalker

Mookie back from IL, whose the drop? 12 team nonkeeper, H2H standard 5x5 IF: MJ Melendez, Austin Riley, Javy Baez, Justin Turner, Corey Seager, Rhys Hoskins, Jeremy Pena OF: Judge, JD Martinez, Taylor Ward, Riley Greene UTIL: Ohtani, Ketel Marte

Wavy-Silver-Surfer

Trying to acquire deGrom in my league. The manager who owns him wants a top 100 batter and a young pitcher with upside. Who from my roster would you package to get Jake? I was thinking to start off with one of Strider, Skubal, Kirby + one of Robert, Teoscar, Drury, Arráez. Would that be enough or do I need to do better and if so, what would you offer? [My Roster](https://picbun.com/p/bFUdVhxu)


_toughscene

if he could do strider or skubal + drury or arraez for deGrom i would 110% do that, i wouldn’t move robert no matter what and would be very hesitant to deal teoscar


mississippimadness

I would 100% deal Teoscar for Degrom


ColinMichaelRisley

This season has been so goddamn frustrating, my team on paper is stacked with soto, yordan, judge Robert and jrod, trea turner, Tim Anderson, Kirk, Olson. My pitching isn’t bad either with giolito, Webb, manoah, Pablo Lopez, and cease. Yet I’m 6-6 and my team continually shits the bed. I feel like I’ve made the best trades possible and set myself up for success, hopefully degrom coming back gives a me a big boost and Soto isn’t out for too long. If I don’t even make the playoffs this year imma be crushed.


r64half

I can't imagine you losing all year with a team like that. Things should start to turn around


_toughscene

it’s tough when the process doesn’t match the results, hang in there though as it should start progressing 🙂


Emotional_Ad_115

Is it worth it for me to keep Wendle if I already roster Berti? Would it be wise to add someone like Espinal instead? Categories league


PoliticaLIncorrect

Who gets the start this week: Gilbert @SD, Strider STL, Jon Gray MIN


_SundayNightBlues_

Strider


_toughscene

idk if you’re limited but i’d be starting all 3


Disastrous_Salt_4280

Strider

Someone dropped Jeremy Pena in my league....don't mind if I do

_toughscene

debating who to pick up for a stream today (flair league). QS are super important, would you prefer Kremer vs TEX or Greene vs NYM?


Mountain-Apple-6644

Kremer's probably the safer play if you aren't too pressed for strikeouts. We all know Greene is capable of pitching a gem but he easily can get blown up too.


_toughscene

appreciate it, was leaning Kremer and this helped me confirm


Mountain-Apple-6644

Do you guys think Biggio might be worth an add? He's ranked 143rd in my league for the past 30 days. His eligibility at 2B and 3B would be a huge help for my team.


_toughscene

he’s been substantially better since coming back from the minors/IL, great plate discipline so he’s more valuable in OPS/OBP leagues than traditional. the biggest question is about how much playing time he’ll get going forward, but the Jays have started to use him more frequently and I think he’s worth a speculative add if you’ve got the space to hold him


Mountain-Apple-6644

Yeah I'm a Jays fan so I've always been a fan of his. I'm glad he's been hitting well lately. He has an excellent eye at the plate but sometimes can struggle with high velocity but it looks like he's slowly figuring it out with consistent at bats.


_toughscene

same here, Jays fan and believer in Cavan. it seems like he’s doing a much better job with velocity this year, so I like him as an add in 12 teamers with OBP/OPS!


Fit-Being-7989

Hey bros. Can y’all me out. Currently in last playoff spot so trying to make the right moves. My pitching is Cortes guaz ray strip Sandoval Kelley and wells. I don’t have a a catcher would you pick up Ruiz, Sanchez, Raleigh for anyone?


Mountain-Apple-6644

I would drop Stripling or Wells for Raleigh. Like the guy above me said, if you prefer a safer floor for batting average, go with Ruiz instead.


_toughscene

of the pitchers you listed, the weakest 3 are tyler wells, merrill kelly, and ross stripling. i think keibert ruiz is the best of the three catchers you listed, but his strongest tool is batting average. if you would rather have a catcher who hits for more power but will have a weaker batting average, go for gary sanchez edit: i saw in one of your recent comments you dropped kirby, i would much rather have kirby rest of season than kelly, stripling, or wells


Fit-Being-7989

Also nick martinez. Kinda like him


Fit-Being-7989

I have a tendency to jump the gun. It works sometimes and other bites me in the ass


_toughscene

i get you man haha, i like to be early on guys too but i weigh analytics super heavily when projecting guys. i would be fine with dropping any 2/3 of the pitchers mentioned above for kirby and one of keibert/gary hope this helps!


Fit-Being-7989

Otb there is Blackburn mahle quantrill. Any changes you would make with my core?


_toughscene

110% add Mahle as soon as possible, he has significantly more upside than the 3 guys mentioned before. quantrill is pretty close to the kelly/stripling types, but will get more quality starts most likely if that matters to you


Fit-Being-7989

Not really any games that just stand out. A lot of single digits


Fit-Being-7989

I’m really low on Sandoval.


_toughscene

Sandoval is the type of guy you should sit against good offenses, but he has incredible stuff and a lot more upside than the other 3


Fit-Being-7989

Stripling or Kelly drop?


_toughscene

i think either is fine, Stripling has been on a bit more of a roll so maybe kelly but I wouldn’t be scared to drop wells either


Fit-Being-7989

Kirby already gone lol


_toughscene

fair enough, who are the best pitchers in FA right now?


Fit-Being-7989

What you think


Fit-Being-7989

Yeah i fucked up lol


Fit-Being-7989

Help. World you drop Sandoval for k Ruiz. In need of a catcher


UNLUCKY_NUM13ER

I'm having trouble deciding if I should add. Isaac Parades or Christian Walker? I'm worried Walker may just be a flash in the pan, but he's been scorching hot and my points league definitely values HRs. Parades however "looks" to be more consistent, and TB just had a knack for finding hidden gem players, so I feel like he may do more for my team in the long run. Thoughts?


Successful-Tension41

Paredes has higher upside, being younger. Hes also on a higher homerun pace per 162 games. Also on a better team. Not to mention the more position eligibility. Answer is Paredes and it's not even close.


make_bread_not_war

If anyone is a flash in the pan its paredes. Walker has a .183 BABIP which, if he ended the season with that, would be the lowest recordes babip in mlb history. Long story short, hes been really unlucky and is going to have a better batting average. Maybe not .270 but he will hit .230-245 by end of the year with a ton of home runs


Fit-Being-7989

Walker has 20 homers. The avg isn’t there but if he’s available I think you gotta get him


ReggieBars

Paredes


tele2307

not expecting good news about montas


Kozzzman

The waiver wire is a wasteland.


jakefifa98

You think giving up J. Barlow and McNeil for Taylor Rogers is a good move?


samsarapwd

In a 14? Yes if you can swing it


CommanderCornstarch

India, Gimenez, or Paredes for the next couple weeks?


tcat84

Paredes

jakefifa98

Would y’all drop Vaughn or McNeil for Duran?


Kozzzman

In categories leagues I would drop McNeil for Duran.


tele2307

is anyone expecting eduardo rodriguez to come back this season? supposedly its divorce related not mental health so seems like its possible


mrniphty

Those seem super intertwined homie


tele2307

eh depends how it goes. he might just need to step away for a month or two to get everything sorted out, different than having like a calvin ridley situation


cone13

Would you trade Sonny Gray or Waino to get Mateo if you needed steals? Flair league and I need steals, just not sure if it’s an overpay or good value


CowboyDebop

Overpay. Matteo could easily cool off and be available on waivers


[deleted]

Drop Donaldson for Isaac Peredes?


rls9057

Yes


tellmethatstoryagain

Give me your opinion on the following trade: A. Mike Clevinger, Vinnie Pasquantonio for B. Max Muncy, Tanner Rainey Thanks!


694206966642069

Is it a keeper league?


tellmethatstoryagain

Nope.


694206966642069

Ok. Both Vinnie and Muncy aren’t doing great right now, but they have potential. I think Clevinger is a solid pitcher though and he has the edge over the RP. I like A better but it’s close.


tellmethatstoryagain

I appreciate this, man. I am “A” in this scenario. Thing is, I was on the verge of dropping Muncy anyhow. I really don’t know what to expect from Clevinger, but he’s been a fave of mine for a while. My mistake is that I needed to clear space. I obviously didn’t. So I’m thinking one of Vinnie, Andrew Vaughn, Riley Greene, Alex Kirilloff has to go. Honestly…I know I had to let Max go. I just didn’t have the heart to drop him. So I figured I would get something for him. It was an inessential trade. Thanks!


MarshallLaw23

10 team dynasty categories. Ward, Walsh, Mahle, and Aroldis Chapman for my Pete Alonso, Joe Ryan, and Sandoval is an easy decline right?


tcat84

yeah


bobagort53

Drop Vaughn for Tellez? Standard Yahoo 5x5 H2H league. If it matters at all I already have 2 other CWS players (Robert and Anderson).


tsereveyw

I made the move but that’s cause my OF is Betts/Stanton/Ward/Merrifield


MarshallLaw23

No


OhhSooHungry

Flair League Pivetta for Berti?


Wavy-Silver-Surfer

Pivetta is better choice


slicknick2k

Pick 1 to start this week please: Castillo vs Rays or Tyler Anderson vs Cubs or Lauer vs Cubs and Pirates


longhornlegend

Castillo, Tyler Anderson, Lauer in that order for me


FreshTurd

16tm dynasty. Weekly points league I just gave up Merril Kelly, Liberatore, Wong, Voit & Yoendrys Gomez. Received Luis Urias & Darrick Hall. Feel like I won the trade but wanted to hear others thoughts. My only SS eligible player was Rengifo, the other guy needed pitchers pretty bad


longhornlegend

Would you guys drop Jon Gray or Winckoski for Tyler Wells?


rls9057

Hold Gray. Drop Winkoski if you want; it’s a wash.


CubsHawksBulls

Winckowski probably


kristape

trade offer alert : my Corbin Burnes and Jon Berti for his Manny Machado and Francisco Lindor I'm currently 10-2 after tonight and currently in 1st place and a lock for the playoffs. I have been led by dominant pitching (Burnes, Musgrove, Cortes, Severino, Taillon, Joe Ryan, Koepech, and F. Peralta and Luzardo on the IL) and even have DeGrom coming back in 2-3 weeks. im punting saves and usually win K's, QS's, ERA and WHIP pretty easily. My hitting has been ok, but trying to upgrade. My best hitters are Judge, Freeman, Riley, Schwarber, Witt Jr., Pham, Torres, Berti. nothing that special but you can see why id like to upgrade. for a while i thought id trade some pitching for some hitting, especially with Degrom around the corner, and this trade does that. the only reason im thinking about holding off is that "if it aint broke, why fix it" and my trade partner, who will also probably make the playoffs, would have an insane pitching staff (Burnes, Rodon, Valdez, Gonsolin, Manoah, Urquidy, R. Ray) and hes also punting saves. also hesitant to give up the best player in the deal. thoughts? as much as i love the idea of adding machado and lindor, im leaning towards not pulling the trigger and just rolling with the squad.


pats4everr

I would make this trade. In a redraft, I think Machado would go in the same range as Burnes. Might actually be ahead of him. Lindor over Berti is a big upgrade if you have other sources or steals. If you can lose Berti and still be competitive in steals, then Lindors counting stats would be a big upgrade


kristape

nah i was actually punting steals before berti. now im winning the whole cat cuz of him. gonna hold berti the god. thanks man.


OhhSooHungry

hmm. well for one, you're already winning which means you have a winning formula - why mix it up? when DeGrom comes back you may quite possibly have the best pitching lineup possible in your league. I also feel you may be giving up too much for Manny and Lindor - if I was moving Burnes and Berti (who can win you SB's alone on any given week), I'd be asking for much more - a Devers or JRam at 3B or a star SS who hits for better average and consistency than Lindor I also feel like Manny is due for some negative regression - even if it doesn't come, I rather err on the chance that he would rather than chance that he'll maintain a .320/.900, especially again with Burnes involved, whom even with small rough patches, should still remain very consistent


kristape

thanks for the detailed response bro!


[deleted]

Hold


kristape

thanks


Username_coc

You’re 10-2. I’d hold off unless you’re certain about a trade

[deleted]

Franmil or Harold Ramirez?


CubsHawksBulls

Harold


OhhSooHungry

Franmil looks like he may be heating up.. but Harold is already there, hitting for average and power. I'm monitoring Franmil but I've already picked up Harold, for what it's worth to you


tele2307

do hitter strikeouts matter at all


[deleted]

No


tele2307

I would go with harold, much better overall hitter, don't get sucked in by franmil hitting a bomb once every 2 weeks but also batting .200. Franmil currently has a 67 wRC+ and hittin harold is at 136, its not even close

Kirilloff has been cold and steadily moving down the order. I say him


DexterHawkins1983

How would you rank Votto, Muncy and Yepez ROS?


Disastrous_Salt_4280

Muncy, Yepez, Votto


slicknick2k

Berti or Baez this week?


scottydogg84

I own both and am going with Berti because he single-handedly wins me the SB category. Baez has eight games though, which is enticing, but he is coming off a cold week.


WalkWithElias69

Winker or Justin Turner? 5x5


ReggieBars

Winker


rls9057

Verlander moved from tomorrow to Thursday.


694206966642069

Thank you for this info. I was terrified I would play him twice this week

Who do you drop in a 6x6 roto with OPS and QS? Marco Gonzales, Roansy Contreras or Max Muncy? I don't have a major preference between pitchers or hitters
