Fantasy Baseball Thread IV

[Muston Atthews]

Do I drop Harper? Not keeping him so... and I did start Bundy. Thanks for the heads up

 

[rangerssharks414]

Do you have an open DL spot for him?

And I really regret trading Whit Merrifield... who would have thought that?

When was your trade deadline? Most Yahoo leagues have until 11:59pm PT tonight (on the 13th).

Ours was earlier in the week and no one even knew. Commish is being a ****** and wouldn't extend it. Sad

Buxton 31 pts this week

My team might make a miracle comeback depending on the outcome of this Red Sox game. If Benintendi can get a hit, and Kimbrel a clean save with some Ks, I will steal a victory from the jaws of defeat. But my opponent has Betts, so I need him to get out, but not with a double play, so that Benintendi can put the Red Sox ahead.

Damn, that sucks. I sent out two reminders via e-mail about the trade deadline #bestcommishever.

Nope, one DL spot and currently have Harper, Strasburg, A. Sanchez, Thor, McCarthy and A. Russell on the DL. Right now Thor is in the spot

I'd probably cut McCarthy and Russell. McCarthy may not have a rotation spot if/when he comes back. And Russell hasn't been great for fantasy this year. I'd hang on to Harper for now.

Having only one DL spot sucks.

Yeah the commish is changing it after this year thankfully. Just doesn't make sense to have one DL spot and 5 keepers.

I know all about bad commishes. Have to deal with 2 that post on here.

Any league that I run has 3 DL spots... minimum.

Well maybe if you and Tootoo stop beating my teams and i just might start liking you again.

 

[rangerssharks414]

You'll probably beat me for mine this week.

 

[darko]

Picked up Gallo about a month ago by using a waiver. Making me look like a genius atm.

Guy is spittin fire after a loss hah. Dooley noted.

I think you win that trade we did though. The only reason I did that Thames/Cozart deal was because despite how I like Anderson going forward, he wasn't cutting it now. As soon as I convince myself to do it...he has 4 dingers in the last 6 games.

He's not available in any rotos. In points leagues I've been gritting my teeth not picking him up. Good bench bat. Put him in when he gets hot and he can win you a week.

I actually dropped him in my league you're in. I only have 1 guy within 60 homeruns and AVG is pretty close so I can't afford to play him and needed to pick up steals. He's extremely frustrating at times, similar to Dunn for awhile.

EDIT: Wow just realized how hot he is. Dropped him in a points league before the month and he's had 64 points the past 2 weeks, 122 the past month. Jesus. In leagues that don't count AVG (like points) he's quite valuable.

Yup. The awful average isn't a problem when he's on a 40 homer pace.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Anthony Rizzo finally made it to 10 games at second base! Yessssssssssss!

(Too bad I'm doing terrible in the one league I have him in...)

 

[rangerssharks414]

My team's freefall continues in Tootoo Train's league.

And I'm keeping it close with Darko for mine, but I'm still losing.

Your pitching is ridiculous. Then again my offense murders yours.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Nelson Cruz might not be outfield eligible next year in any league. He's at four games right now, and I read today that he "probably won't" play the outfield at all in Atlanta. Dammit.

Small price to pay to plug Rizzo at 2B.

 

[rangerssharks414]

I have an .807 winning percentage for a league. How is that even possible?

Well I'm not in it.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Cruz will be outfield eligible in five start leagues for next year. He must have talked his way into the lineup last night.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Hoskins might win people some fantasy leagues this year. He's hitting lots of homers so far, and he's drawing walks too.
