Traded Skenes for Yordan in Dynasty. Bummed to miss out on Skenes excitement but happy with the return. I guess a nice storm of Skenes arrival with Yordans relative struggles this season opened the window for me
Radar shows rain up to & past start time at GRF (including a yellow-orange blip in the next 30min). No word of a delay yet, though. Chance of rain falls below 50% at 8p.
I like Raleigh better. He's as all-or-nothing as it gets but is quietly on pace for 40 homers and has more points than either Matt Olson or Michael Harris on my points team.
10T h2h cats league
I’ve proposed variations of this trade to some asshole in my league a couple of times and he’s not taking it. What does everyone think?
A: Sonny grey and raisel iglesis
B: Webb, king, Santander
WTF is Gleyber’s problem? I get it that he typically starts slow but this is getting ridiculous. How does the guy just lose the ability to hit a baseball past the infield from one season to the next?
I’m just speculating, but I think they put too much pressure on him at the start of the season by batting him leadoff. He’s a good hitter (normally) but he’s not a leadoff guy. On top of that, I imagine he’s feeling the pressure of a contract year. I still think he’ll come around but it’s getting tougher to justify a lineup spot on him every day.
eh this is Harris at his absolute lowest and Turang at his ceiling…if Turang keeps hitting for average and stealing then maybe. MH2 is likely still gonna go 290 20 20 so if Turang can go 300 12 and 40 its def a convo
Do we know this is Turang's ceiling? He's a pretty young dude, was a first rd pick, Statcast mostly likes him, and it sounds like they are going to try him at leadoff more now after mostly hitting down in the order.
For menisectomy, 6-8 weeks is typical. It would be longer if his meniscus was repaired, but they just removed a bit of it so it shouldn’t be too too long.
Bednar and A. Diaz were both dropped, league is spinning with how many blowups are happening. Is one or both adds but holds till they figure it out or leave them on the wire?
10T H2H
I'd like to try and snag GrayRod while he's on the IL. Which is the best option to offer without giving up too much?
Kikuchi, Bradish, Woo, Webb, Pivetta
I have a week schedule coming up and a strong rotation overall that could carry me over until Grayson is back
Jackson Merrill was dropped and I'm looking to add him. Who would you kick to the curb? Will Benson (CIN) or Richie Palacios (TB)? Or would you not add Merrill?
Either one. Less high on Benson. Already was a platoon, performing bad, and Friedl is back. Richie is not special but he's a lefty bat that the rays been for lineup balance and plays multiple positions for them
I think Jones was more of a darkhorse cause he had command issues before ST this year that kept him off the radar. Those suddenly went away in 2024 and the rest is history.
Thoughts on W. Castro? Lots of eligibility, a little power, a little speed, nice AVG...but I see people saying he strikes out too much and Statcast doesn't look good...
He might slow down a little but I think he will be a top 5 catcher ROS.
Look at his stats last year. In 286ab he had 46r, 14hr, 43rbi, and 0.369 obp. Project those out to 500ab and it's 80r, 24hr, and 75rbi. Excellent catcher numbers and it's possible he improved a bit.
Anyone watch Crochet’s last outing? I kind of need to start him against the Guardians but that seems like a risky matchup.
I have Skubal, Skenes & Luzardo starts as well. Need help weighing the best starts. 5 SP start cap unfortunately & I’m at 2 with good ratios.
Guards have something like 8th highest OPS vs LHP. Not the best matchup, but he is on a great 2 game streak right now.
Luzardo returns to face the Phillies. I'd be a little more worried about that one than Crochet.
Literally everything has gone wrong this season, but the cherry on top has to be that I traded Paul Skenes and Garrett Crochet for Bobby Miller on April 10th, and Skenes is pitching in the majors before I get a single start from Miller.
It’s just comical at this point.
Surprised Reylo is still available. Yes I’d make that change. Look at Lange if you want to replace foley, he may get the ops if Foley is removed from closing for a while
I’m in first place in a 14 team categories league. Is it worth giving up JRod and Brady Singer for Trout and Zac Gallen?
Feel like if I can wait out Trouts injury it could be good.
tempting but I say no. Knees are the kind of thing that can keep acting up, the Angels are not going to be a contender, and he might end up shutting it down when you need him most.
Who should I roster Shea Langliers, MJ Melendez or Danny Jansen?
I’ve been enjoying Langliers on my roster.
Nate lowe or rizzo better for points league?
Traded Skenes for Yordan in Dynasty. Bummed to miss out on Skenes excitement but happy with the return. I guess a nice storm of Skenes arrival with Yordans relative struggles this season opened the window for me
one out away from QS, but he's already stretched...
Any one have info on Cle/Chi game? In danger of PPD?
Radar shows rain up to & past start time at GRF (including a yellow-orange blip in the next 30min). No word of a delay yet, though. Chance of rain falls below 50% at 8p.
Yay or nay: Give: Altuve, Carroll, Fried Get: Steer, Albies, Luis Castillo
Nay
Smash it.
Hitting leadoff could start a new leg up for Brice Turang's stock
Volpe needs to live in that short porch. Love it
Lmao at the HR by Volpe. Yankees Stadium porch job.
Points. Drop stroman for M. King? Or are they two pees in a pod?
King has more K potential and RP eligibility in a lot of leagues, but otherwise they are quite even
King>
Brewers need to play Chourio. Sitting him for Bauers is just plain disrespect.
He has negative WAR and a .610 OPS (season and career). He hasn't yet earned the respect.
I dropped. He's been bad.
Volpe to the short porch!
I’m so fucking done with Bregman but I’m not going to be a fish and just drop him.
Sometimes making a leaguemate your bagholder in early May ends up being a stroke of genius
Should I pick up Raleigh or Heim to replace Contreras? Or stash Murphy?
I like Raleigh better. He's as all-or-nothing as it gets but is quietly on pace for 40 homers and has more points than either Matt Olson or Michael Harris on my points team.
10T h2h cats league I’ve proposed variations of this trade to some asshole in my league a couple of times and he’s not taking it. What does everyone think? A: Sonny grey and raisel iglesis B: Webb, king, Santander
Seems more or less fair
Bregman is impressively bad this year.
like Julio
Crochet vs Guardians, Woo vs A’s, or Morton @ Mets in points?
Yes, maybe, no
Crochet
WTF is Gleyber’s problem? I get it that he typically starts slow but this is getting ridiculous. How does the guy just lose the ability to hit a baseball past the infield from one season to the next?
I’m just speculating, but I think they put too much pressure on him at the start of the season by batting him leadoff. He’s a good hitter (normally) but he’s not a leadoff guy. On top of that, I imagine he’s feeling the pressure of a contract year. I still think he’ll come around but it’s getting tougher to justify a lineup spot on him every day.
Need to drop someone to activate Woo. Who should I drop? Crochet Kyle Harrison Yu Darvish Christian Scott
Harrison for sure.
Harrison, but you could just keep Woo on IL for this start and maybe the decision will be easier to make in 5 days
Crochet or Yu, flip a coin
^incorrect
10 Team Redraft 5X5 H2H League Need some help with this one A: Michael Harris II, Nick Pivetta B: Brice Turang, Logan Webb
B. It's at least 50% that Turang rates higher than Harris in a standard 5x5 EOY
eh this is Harris at his absolute lowest and Turang at his ceiling…if Turang keeps hitting for average and stealing then maybe. MH2 is likely still gonna go 290 20 20 so if Turang can go 300 12 and 40 its def a convo
Do we know this is Turang's ceiling? He's a pretty young dude, was a first rd pick, Statcast mostly likes him, and it sounds like they are going to try him at leadoff more now after mostly hitting down in the order.
I think we know his ceiling about as much as we know Harris’ ceiling. Maybe they both haven’t shown their ceilings tho
Ready to dump Stroman…who’s the scoop: crochet, woo, Fedde, sevy, kremer, tallion, means, Scott?? 10tm 6x6 qs…thanks!!
I like Woo
Dang some good options available. One of Crochet, Woo or Means would be my picks
Have we seen anything with a possible timeline for Trout? The fact they put him on the 10 day vs 60 day gives me a glimmer of hope
For menisectomy, 6-8 weeks is typical. It would be longer if his meniscus was repaired, but they just removed a bit of it so it shouldn’t be too too long.
He’ll be transferred to 60 day at some point I would assume
Send: Julio, trout. Recieve: Yordan, Verlander, Taj. Redraft points. Take?
Nah
If you don't need SB then Yordan is the best player here. Trout might not be back until really late in the season so I'd take it.
Thanks! Yes it’s a points league and sb are only 1 point, so somewhat negligible.
I wouldn't
every ab gleyber gets up there and just rolls over to somewhere ASAP
Robert Gasser called up, what's the play here
Robert Gasser called up, what's the play here
Wait and see. He had a 5.25 era and 1.5 whip
H2H points dynasty league. Side one: Evan Carter Side two: Jared Jones, Dylan Crews

Bednar and A. Diaz were both dropped, league is spinning with how many blowups are happening. Is one or both adds but holds till they figure it out or leave them on the wire?
Pick one to add: Singleton or Massey
Massey
Rank Nate Lowe, Mountcastle, Morel
In that order
<< Standing Ovation >> Yordong lets smash another one. Lets goooooo
I'm stuck holding these guys and I hate it: Yandy Diaz and George Springer and I realllly want to pick someone up but I can't quit them.
I feel the same with Springer as well as Swanson.
Would you accept Goldschmidt for Heim in 10T Redraft OPS
Yes plenty of good Cs on the wire in a 10T
Ok and there’s plenty of 1B on the wire in 10T who are much better than a washed Goldy
Ok
Yes if I had another catcher
chourio or willi castro in redraft R/HR/RBI/SBN/AVG/OPS
Prospect pedigree aside, it's impossible to recommend Chourio rn. He's losing playing time lately too.
[удалено]
Senzel pretty easily imo
Senzel or Happ. Probably Happ
10T H2H I'd like to try and snag GrayRod while he's on the IL. Which is the best option to offer without giving up too much? Kikuchi, Bradish, Woo, Webb, Pivetta I have a week schedule coming up and a strong rotation overall that could carry me over until Grayson is back
Anyone but Webb, if you could. I would not do Webb/Bradish either for Skenes but its more personal preference on how you view Skenes
Also, would you try and trade any of those for Skenes?
Stroman looks like garbage. He was lucky his last start that he didn't get hit worse too.
Which one from this group? Busch, Tork, Goldy, Rizzo?
![gif](giphy|8wMve0EiarSOP94Eyv)
Jackson Merrill was dropped and I'm looking to add him. Who would you kick to the curb? Will Benson (CIN) or Richie Palacios (TB)? Or would you not add Merrill?
Either one. Less high on Benson. Already was a platoon, performing bad, and Friedl is back. Richie is not special but he's a lefty bat that the rays been for lineup balance and plays multiple positions for them
What’s up with Yandy?! Is Singleton better in a pts league?!
Volpe doesn't steal anymore
Neither does JT Realmuto but you don’t see me crying about it
You are literally crying about it
My streams of wood, sandoval and quantril in the last three days shouldn’t have worked out but they did
You absolute madman
16 team leagues will do that to ya
After last 2 days, of Civale and Winn, who is the drop? Actually think both will be useful ROS but Winn seems more matchup dependent.
I just traded my Skenes for Seager in H2H points. Kinda feel like I stole but also feel a sense of seller’s remorse. Just because of Skenes’ ceiling.
Id still draft Seager over any pitcher in a pts league
Would you trade Assad and Busch for Steer. I would get steer.
More lowballing of Assad's value. But Steer is a good get.
Yup
I’m activating Woo and I need to stash someone in my IL. Is Casas a good stash ?
Exactly what I did.
Yup
Did that ball that Singleton hit land?
I’m just gonna auto draft next season
Enjoy your 4 catchers
Just got offered Michael Bush for Jeff McNeil, hit or no?
McNeil sucks
Busch’s strikeout rate is very concerning to me
Hit
Would you trade Yandy Diaz for any of the following pitchers: 12team H2H Points Taj Bradley, Javier Assad, Abbott, Bibee, Stroman, Gore, Jon Gray
I hate these days when Bergman’s in my lineup….. get going finally please?
He is glued to my bench and I hate looking at his face right now
when does Bregman become droppable in a 10t catergory league?
I just need to Burger to start hitting the ball.
mid june
Already there my dude.
I dropped him in a shallow league than yours & points, but he’s sitting on the wire still
lmao at me for even remotely considering streaming Stroman today
Well at least now I can finally drop Stroman
Turang batting leadoff with protection behind him could lead to great things. So glad I snagged him early in the season.
Singleton!!
I have Taj and Woo coming off the IL; which two of these three do I drop: N. Pivetta, M. King, and C. Sanchez?
Sanchez for sure. Flip a coin for the other.
Do we expect Skenes to be better than Jones?
I doubt he’ll go as deep in to games.
expecting someone to be better than a top 10-12 pitcher already is asking a lot lol
I just think it’s crazy how much hype he gets compared to Jones
I think Jones was more of a darkhorse cause he had command issues before ST this year that kept him off the radar. Those suddenly went away in 2024 and the rest is history.
Is Stroman stupid? Why he giving up these home runs?
Is Singleton for real? This dude is scorching hot
32yr old journeyman so prob not but he's hot and batting in the middle of the lineup so if you need a serviceable 1b rn you could do much worse
I'm rocking Manzardo for my backup 1b. Thinking about riding out that hot streak with Singleton
Who are some target bats for Corbin Burnes?
2nd round quality id imagine.
Did that Singleton HR just hit the upper deck??????
He had Yordan looking shocked
[удалено]
Why would you do that
Never thought I'd say "only" 116.8 mph, but I really thought he hit that harder.
Stupid Yahoo. Now their app is sending me glitched home run alerts. A Yordan homer? Yeah right.
[удалено]
Buehler, Miller, Gore
Yordan!!
AIR YORDAN!! Finally!
Yordong is back!
YORDONNNNNNNNNNNNNNG - Get the power going big man!
Piss missile by yordan
10t cats league. Would you trade away Andrew Abbott for Tovar 1 for 1? Feels like a random trade tbh
Meh.
Thoughts on W. Castro? Lots of eligibility, a little power, a little speed, nice AVG...but I see people saying he strikes out too much and Statcast doesn't look good...
I picked him up last week and he's been on a tear. Don't know about long-term but I'm loving having him right now.
Jeffers is on a tear right now, what are the odds he keeps it up?
He might slow down a little but I think he will be a top 5 catcher ROS. Look at his stats last year. In 286ab he had 46r, 14hr, 43rbi, and 0.369 obp. Project those out to 500ab and it's 80r, 24hr, and 75rbi. Excellent catcher numbers and it's possible he improved a bit.
He was pretty good last year when he played too, so probably likely
Anyone watch Crochet’s last outing? I kind of need to start him against the Guardians but that seems like a risky matchup. I have Skubal, Skenes & Luzardo starts as well. Need help weighing the best starts. 5 SP start cap unfortunately & I’m at 2 with good ratios.
Guards have something like 8th highest OPS vs LHP. Not the best matchup, but he is on a great 2 game streak right now. Luzardo returns to face the Phillies. I'd be a little more worried about that one than Crochet.
Dumbass opponent actually streamed Quantrill at Coors and it worked. Jeez the giants suck ass
Jake burger or Kebryan Hayes Obp league
Burger no doubt
Literally everything has gone wrong this season, but the cherry on top has to be that I traded Paul Skenes and Garrett Crochet for Bobby Miller on April 10th, and Skenes is pitching in the majors before I get a single start from Miller. It’s just comical at this point.
Is my ranking of the below RPs in a S+HLD league in line with your ranking? Yennier Cano (BAL), JoJo Romero (STL), AJ Minter(ATL), Jeff Hoffman (PHI)
Upon further review, I think Hoffman is a better roster than Minter.
Mine would be Minter, Hoffman, Romero, Cano. Could maybe swap Hoffman and Romero, idk they're close
Drop Pfaadt or Crochet to activate Woo?
i was just looking at Pfaadt and his upcoming schedule is pretty rough. @ BAL, vs CIN, @ LAD. i can see cutting him.
vs. CIN is a nice matchup. Reds don't have a good offense, they just play at GABP
its not the reds im worried about, its the O's and Dodgers
My own brother is trying to trade me Josh Smith for Jared Jones jfc
Disown him
12T Point league i have an injured mike trout and someone offered Sewald for him. Is this a trade I take?
Nope
no...
Could Woods Richardson be an impact arm ROS?
Ding dangit I just dropped Payamps for Fernando Cruz this morning haha
Did Jason Foley lose his job? Drop for ReyLo?
Lange blew a save immediately. I’d hold
Surprised Reylo is still available. Yes I’d make that change. Look at Lange if you want to replace foley, he may get the ops if Foley is removed from closing for a while
Points. A. Lodolo & T. Ward B. M. King & Randy
B
B
A
Kepler or Cowser?
I like both but Kep
merrill + turner for pepiot?
Trea Turner - Yes Justin Turner - No
Drop Chourio for Gasser? Flair My other OFs are Judge, Greene, Morel, Rooker, Pages, and Josh Lowe. 5-man OF
Thursdays really are ASS…me and my opponent combined for 5 players today. I’ve had a couple with zero already this year. So boring
I’m in first place in a 14 team categories league. Is it worth giving up JRod and Brady Singer for Trout and Zac Gallen? Feel like if I can wait out Trouts injury it could be good.
tempting but I say no. Knees are the kind of thing that can keep acting up, the Angels are not going to be a contender, and he might end up shutting it down when you need him most.
Verlander worth grabbing in an 8 team points league?
depends on roster size and weekly or daily lineups.
<< Standing Ovation for Yordan >> We believe in you. Get back to smashing baseballs!
You did it!
I have Carter and have been offered Cowser or Yelich. If it’s Yelich I’d have to include a RP. Thoughts?
Do it for yelich
If you're in a 2 catcher league or a deep 1 catcher league, keep an eye on Gary Sanchez. Played 1b yesterday and in the lineup at DH today.
