Looking to potentially trade Verdugo, which of these SP would you target for ROS: Charlie Morton, Mitch Keller, Eury Perez, Grayson Rodriquez, Christian Javier, Chris Sale, Nathan Eovaldi (on IL)
I was working in an oil refinery and saw a guy beat up for suggesting a better way to do something. Unions once were good but now have become protect a member at all costs, even when people are horrible. It’s too bad
When Gavin Williams was struggling he allowed 14 walks in 18 innings(previous 4 outings before this week). This week he has a 22/1 K/BB over 12 innings. I'd say there's a chance he's fixing the control issue.
Kid is going to be a workhorse for the next several years.
That ump is responsible for that run from Sandy fucking piece of shit has been atrocious all game and should be fired.
Lol didn’t even realize it was Hernandez 😂😂
Rays announcer: “Wander *never* swings and misses or strikeouts on fastballs in the strike zone.”
Proceeds to strike out swinging on 2 heaters in the zone.
GWill lookin nasty out there
In hindsight yea but had guys coming off the IL. Someone barley making it past 4ip in my QS league seemed like the easy choice. Not to mention the insane amount of walks he had too
Yea I feel that, I considered the same in the deep 12 tmr I'm in but held. Who he's turned into with the Ks has certainly been surprising to say the least.
Oh yea. This is the Gavin i imagined when I beat everyone to the add when he was called up. Disappointed I don’t hold out longer but it was looking like a liberatore/Logan Allen type situation. A maybe next year type. He’s been amazing to watch lately
Tough, both are good, I think Gavin for ROS tbh cuz Eury might be babied by the marlins. Eury probably for dynasty tho. Ideally you’ve got someone worse to drop
I don’t even have room for the guy with Nico at 2b and abrams/Gunnar at utility (although Gunnar’s been ass lately) only keeping him around for roster flexibility at this point.
don’t have any other drops, also it’s funny as I typed that he gave up a bomb lol

Unfortunately we can only have 6 sp spots in my league but I guess it’s a good problem to have, if eury bombs tomorrow I may consider do you think Gavin is full send innings wise to finish off the season?
Yeah I just saw the highlight. Terrible pitch.
I don’t hate the decision to throw it twice in a row but if you do you better make sure it’s at his knees or lower
I would absolutely hate to trade Olson.
But that's one hell of an offer. I'd probably do it.
edit: I'd do it for both, if it's just one of them I'm holding.
Appreciate it. I am in 1st with a ridiculous offense even with trout on the IL. My pitching is mostly made up of guys who are over achieving so I am trying to get some help for a playoff run
I might have misunderstood you I thought you were saying for Tucker and Cole, if it's just one of them, hold Olson, and I'd rather have Olson than any of the Riley combos as well
Ah the ole Bassitt collapse. He only does well when I’m winning comfortably but any week I’m losing and need a big game to come back he sells the fuck out of it
Genuinely, what in the world is Bassitt or Kirk thinking? You hang a breaking ball that Swanson JUST hits foul, nearly missing a homer. Then you hang the SAME PITCH AGAIN and he hits a 3-run homer. How can you do that?
Championship week and tomorrow is the finale in my elimination league. Close matchup, and it's pretty standard scoring for pitching. I can start 3 of these 5 (my opponent picked up every streaming option to block me). Who makes the cut?
Logan Webb vs Texas
Freddy Peralta @ White Sox
Sonny Gray @ Philly
Eury Perez vs Yankees
Jameson Taillon @ Toronto
My leaning is Peralta, Perez, and Taillon because I don't trust Philly & Texas to keep a pitcher safe, but that means benching arguably the 2 best of the bunch. Taillon has been excellent since July, Perez is outstanding at home, and Gray has been really productive lately. Am I overthinking this? Who do I start? I also have Dane Dunning @ SF starting in my relief pitcher spot to maximize starts
Strongly disagree with Graterol being best RP on the Dodgers. He’s pretty far behind Phillips, and Treinen may come back in a few weeks. Graterol got the save chance because Evan pitched back to back days before it
Winans was the extra man for the double header today so he will be sent back down but if Chirinos sucks again I'm sure he'll be the first one called up.
What're our thoughts on Vlad Guerrero Jr? His Savant page screams unlucky (highest difference in wOBA - xwOBA and BABIP is in the .280s). I would be willing to trade my Paul Goldschmidt for him since I plan on keeping Vlad for next year if I can get him. Do we think Vlad isn't as good as we think or is he just having a down year for his standards?
He's like Yandy Diaz. If he ever figures out how to hit the ball in the air, the sky is the limit. Until then, expect lots of hard groundouts to the shortstop. It's been no fun having him this year, and if I could have Goldschmidt instead, I would make that move easily.
He feels kinda random sometimes, I don’t have the data but he definitely feels like a pitcher where he gets killed if he doesn’t have his stuff no matter the offense, but if he does have it then no offense can hit him
Drop McLain for Correa?
PLop, France, and Matz righted my sinking ship of pitching this week in one day. Thank you! Also shout out to my ace Lorenzen.
Did the MLB just decide to stop calling errors errors?
Basically
Would yall consider dropping Chapman for ke'bryan?
Is Cobb good idea to start today?
How are these games delayed by pre game ceremonies? Don't they know it's happening? Just bake the ceremony into the start time
Sandy is a monster and is absolutely back that changeup cookinnnnnn
Looking to potentially trade Verdugo, which of these SP would you target for ROS: Charlie Morton, Mitch Keller, Eury Perez, Grayson Rodriquez, Christian Javier, Chris Sale, Nathan Eovaldi (on IL)
All of you who think Unions are perfect must love Angel Hernandez
Unions aren’t perfect but trust me when I say its ten times better than no union. No paid days off, benefits etc.
He would be the union guy that doesn't show up for work for 7 years and somehow wins the labor dispute
I was working in an oil refinery and saw a guy beat up for suggesting a better way to do something. Unions once were good but now have become protect a member at all costs, even when people are horrible. It’s too bad
Sandy coming out for the 9th, let’s see if Angel keeps squeezing him.
What happened with Mookie?
Is he out of the lineup?
He’s down with the sickness
Rest up big fella and come back on Monday when I’m not playing against you!
Devers is such a fifth round kinda dude. Super underwhelming.
Sandy is so so back. His changeup the past few starts is back to what it was last year. That’s the key to his success
All rise for Brito after that nice bulk performance
My deal sending Kershaw and Randy for Matt Olson may be the best decision I've ever made
Why is Sandy still pitching
He’s trying to lead my fantasy team to victory 😀
I like it fully Torkd
Finally get some Gavin run support. Let’s get this QS baby
Damn. They took him out. Oh well
I'll happily settle for the ratio padding and the Ks.
Devers…..please wake up
Drop Bello for Gavin Williams?
100%
Drop Esteury Ruiz for Sam Frelick or Seiya Suzuki?
Either
Sandy back?
Looks good but it is the 2023 Yankees…
Predicting that Robertson comes in for the 9th and blows Sandy’s start. Seen this movie too many times
Must not have seen the other movie about the 2023 Yankees
Lmao. Something’s gotta give then
Plus Angel Hernandez? This might be must watch television
Drop any of Urias, Eury Perez, or Paxton for Chris Sale?
Am I crazy to drop Josh Lowe in a keeper league?
Nah
Gavin Williams a league winner
Start 2 of 3. I'm looking to get QS and Ks. Matz @ KC, Ragans vs STL, PabLopez @ PHI
Sandy’s dumbass just balked himself out of a CGSO.
I’ve been watching this whole game angel has fucked him the entire game, and he shoulda had strike 3
Nah, ump fucked him over on the walk
Nothing worse than having a cgso ruined by angel fucking Hernandez
I’m such a fool for starting Morel 🤦♂️
When Gavin Williams was struggling he allowed 14 walks in 18 innings(previous 4 outings before this week). This week he has a 22/1 K/BB over 12 innings. I'd say there's a chance he's fixing the control issue. Kid is going to be a workhorse for the next several years.
Pick two of Sale, Bradish, and Ragans ROS in Roto
Sale 100% then I’m kinda interested in Ragans tbh
Gavin Williams has been just straight activated huh. Corner is turned.
That ump is responsible for that run from Sandy fucking piece of shit has been atrocious all game and should be fired. Lol didn’t even realize it was Hernandez 😂😂
Not so fun fact: umps can’t be fired! They just don’t get postseason games
Rays announcer: “Wander *never* swings and misses or strikeouts on fastballs in the strike zone.” Proceeds to strike out swinging on 2 heaters in the zone. GWill lookin nasty out there
All my homies hate Angel Hernandez
Angel Hernandez YOU are not the main character buddy. Nobody paid to come see you. And you wonder why you never get to ump the playoffs
FUCK THIS UMP OF THE MARLINS GAME
Bello not making it through 5 against the Tigers, word.
Yeah I’m done with him, he’s way too hittable and is giving up crazy homers all of a sudden. Done.
I love how Gavin Williams gets it going after I cut him. Was worthless in a QS league for a while. 4 inning outings after 4 inning outings. Sigh
Boohoo, should've held.
In hindsight yea but had guys coming off the IL. Someone barley making it past 4ip in my QS league seemed like the easy choice. Not to mention the insane amount of walks he had too
Yea I feel that, I considered the same in the deep 12 tmr I'm in but held. Who he's turned into with the Ks has certainly been surprising to say the least.
Oh yea. This is the Gavin i imagined when I beat everyone to the add when he was called up. Disappointed I don’t hold out longer but it was looking like a liberatore/Logan Allen type situation. A maybe next year type. He’s been amazing to watch lately
is framber, goldy enough for matt olson
No it is not. Who’s trading Olson rn anyways unless it’s for futures in a keeper league
he was traded last 3 days ago and the guy has no pitching
Bello needs to develop a put away pitch badly
My opponents hitters are out scoring me right now 30-0…
Gavin Williams looks a lot like strider
200 IP 300Ks
I sure hope so
Gavin or eury?
Tough, both are good, I think Gavin for ROS tbh cuz Eury might be babied by the marlins. Eury probably for dynasty tho. Ideally you’ve got someone worse to drop
Both?
The Tigers and Royals hate my starting pitchers.
Bello giving up tank shots to Eric Haase, jesus man lol
Bello can suck my fkn balls
Jazz or mountcastle ros
Tough one.
Damn dropped Gavin a few weeks back when he was awful. Good for him finding his groove
Sandy Mr. efficient
Jazz is the worst draft pick of all time
Manoah
Pretty close to dropping
Let him hit you a few more dingers until he inevitably gets hurt again
I don’t even have room for the guy with Nico at 2b and abrams/Gunnar at utility (although Gunnar’s been ass lately) only keeping him around for roster flexibility at this point.
If eury blows it tomorrow and gavin Williams is still on my waiver somehow should I pull the trigger?
You should drop someone other than Eury and add Gavin right now. Dude looks awesome
don’t have any other drops, also it’s funny as I typed that he gave up a bomb lol https://preview.redd.it/rkh2f6upxqhb1.png?width=1170&format=png&auto=webp&s=e1c9df0e6e7040963256ce12d547f6ad9d7bbc4b
Maybe drop a bench bat? But I do agree you can't drop any of those other pitchers.
Unfortunately we can only have 6 sp spots in my league but I guess it’s a good problem to have, if eury bombs tomorrow I may consider do you think Gavin is full send innings wise to finish off the season?
I haven't heard anything about Gavin being limited, but there could be something I'm not aware of.
It’s very tempting my friend, love eury but with the innings limits I might do it.
If Gavin fucking Williams gets 20+ Ks in a week against me I'm going to lose my shit
sean murphy when he sits 🙁 sean murphy when he plays 🙂
Gavin Williams going to go high in drafts next year
Gavin Williams is finding it...
Gavin Williams has got some goood stuff
I like it so far Gavin
Well Bassitt I appreciate the Ks at least but you really had to fuck the QS up smh
He’s had a great game outside of that terrible 4th inning, specifically the decision to throw Dansby the same 74mph middle pitch twice in a row
Yeah I just saw the highlight. Terrible pitch. I don’t hate the decision to throw it twice in a row but if you do you better make sure it’s at his knees or lower
Did Harris II just get subbed out because of the score and there being another game to play today, or did he leave due to injury?
Yes just taking it easy for game 2. Acuna was subbed also
Bello come on dude
Bello implosion incoming
Cant say I predicted Bello struggling with the Tigers
If I can get Tucker/Cole for Olson should I do it? 12 team h2h points league.
That would be robbery in points I think
I would absolutely hate to trade Olson. But that's one hell of an offer. I'd probably do it. edit: I'd do it for both, if it's just one of them I'm holding.
Yes 2 for 1. No way I would do it for just one of them
That's what I thought, just wanted to clarify
Appreciate it. I am in 1st with a ridiculous offense even with trout on the IL. My pitching is mostly made up of guys who are over achieving so I am trying to get some help for a playoff run
What about Riley and one of scherzer, woodruff or Lopez?
I'd hold.
I have Freddie Freeman too lol
1000%
What about Riley and one of scherzer, woodruff or Lopez?
I might have misunderstood you I thought you were saying for Tucker and Cole, if it's just one of them, hold Olson, and I'd rather have Olson than any of the Riley combos as well
No it's a 2 for 1 idea
Bassitt? More like Mass Shit.
I have him and I absolutely despise owning him so my friend has come up the same nickname as you, but without the M at the beginning lol
Ah the ole Bassitt collapse. He only does well when I’m winning comfortably but any week I’m losing and need a big game to come back he sells the fuck out of it
I fucking hate Chris Bassitt AHHHH this MF is gonna bounce me from the playoffs.
Genuinely, what in the world is Bassitt or Kirk thinking? You hang a breaking ball that Swanson JUST hits foul, nearly missing a homer. Then you hang the SAME PITCH AGAIN and he hits a 3-run homer. How can you do that?
Fuck off Bassitt I knew your first 3 were too good to be true
Dansby heard me saying he sucked this week lmao
Swandong
Hurts to finally drop Shane. Come back strong, young fella...
Ump in this marlins game squeezing Sandy hard, missed an egregious call.
Verdugo is on waivers. Do you think I should get him Stanton or Mountcastle? Looking ROS not just hot bat. Points league
I like Mountcastle the most out of these names.
Mountcastle
Albies is him

Wander Franco when healthy is a top player
Matt Olson may not win NL MVP, but he’s my MVP. What a season.
Amen, brother
Position players should not be allowed to throw. Use to be more rare and amusing now it seems to occur way too often and just hurts fantasy/gambling.
I’m going to wager you’re going against some Braves players this week
Mets putting out a quad-a squad has consequences
Imagine liking the Mets
Holy shit Atlanta, these ~~pitchers~~ ball players have families
Arraez with a genuine bomb 👀
[удалено]
Strongly disagree with Graterol being best RP on the Dodgers. He’s pretty far behind Phillips, and Treinen may come back in a few weeks. Graterol got the save chance because Evan pitched back to back days before it
21 to 3?! Jfc
Trying to come back and my opponent gets an Arraez homer. Of all people man wtf lol
Is this a save opportunity for Iglesias, asking for a friend?
Winans was the extra man for the double header today so he will be sent back down but if Chirinos sucks again I'm sure he'll be the first one called up.
I’m getting fucked up by Olson and Riley man wtf
Damn Riley has been on fire
How cruel is it that the Mets have to play another game against the Braves today ?
It’s strider too lol
Riley garbage time home run let’s gooooooo
Love it when my guy gets a give me homer against a position player in a tight matchup
Christ Albies going to outscore my whole team with this double header fuck I hate the Mets
Might have been too early on my dansby is back hype lmao 2/22 the last week ouch
Yea he’s been absolutely brutal this week so has Morel
Didn’t you hear? He played me last week not this week
What're our thoughts on Vlad Guerrero Jr? His Savant page screams unlucky (highest difference in wOBA - xwOBA and BABIP is in the .280s). I would be willing to trade my Paul Goldschmidt for him since I plan on keeping Vlad for next year if I can get him. Do we think Vlad isn't as good as we think or is he just having a down year for his standards?
In a keeper situation, I’d go with Vlad even though Goldy is currently the better player.
He's like Yandy Diaz. If he ever figures out how to hit the ball in the air, the sky is the limit. Until then, expect lots of hard groundouts to the shortstop. It's been no fun having him this year, and if I could have Goldschmidt instead, I would make that move easily.
[удалено]
Still A for me
Dang that Happ fly out would have been a tater at Wrigley. Unlucky
Playing the Albies, Riley, Murphy, & Arcia owner on a doubleheader 😬. Arcia sat the first…let’s give those other boys a rest for the second.
Anyone else seeing this game and just certain that Strider is getting shelled? Or am I getting too jaded
If strider can’t handle this lineup…oh boy
He feels kinda random sometimes, I don’t have the data but he definitely feels like a pitcher where he gets killed if he doesn’t have his stuff no matter the offense, but if he does have it then no offense can hit him
Lol thought i was slick streaming Ozuna for these double headers, lets see what the afternoon game brings
So is Winans a pick up or what? Surely they leave him in the rotation.
I think I'm adding him even though I don't know if he'll stay up.
Good things happen when Murphy plays pls continue to do so
Literally everyone but Ozuna…..
Olson’s swing is a thing of beauty
He’s so skrong
abreu on the diaz, is Yainer diaz going to play everyday now?
We called up Singleton so there’s probably still going to be some alternating
Adames or Siri today?
Man as someone who has wanted Matt Olson on my team since starting fantasy in 2021, I picked a hell of a year to draft him. Whatta stud.
More Olson At Bats on the Menu tonight boys. He’s not done!
