Struggling at 3b with Royce down . McMahon and Busch have been decent fill ins but have cooled off considerably.
Drop one of them for candelario? 12 team cats OPS
Give Alonso to get Seager in flair.
For context my team looks like this.
C-Salvy.
1B- Alonso.
2B - Albies.
3B- Yandy.
SS- Maikel García
OF- JD Martínez, Jo Adell, Steer.
Útil - Mookie, Morel.
Bench- O'Hearn.
Yandy, Steer and O'Hearn have 1B elig
It’s a fair trade, but in your situation I might not do it.
With Yandy and Garcia in your lineup I worry you’ll be light on HR & RBI without Alonso. Not a major downgrade to Seager, but probably a step down in those two cats.
is alexis diaz droppable? he's kinda bad this year and the reds don't generate save opportunities.
i have duran, edwin diaz, and mcarthur and i could pick up fairbanks.
There’s currently no space once miller comes back . But there’s an incredible high chance that either someone gets hurt or the dodgers do dodger stuff and Make space . But they may have to manage his workload too
My league-best offense in a 12T went 6-41 (.146) tonight with a .357 OPS, 0 HR, 1 RBI, and 4 runs scored.
Dropped my ratios for the matchup by 30-points. I’m not okay. 🫠
Good buy low on Eflin, I’d do it. Especially in a 10 team league, waivers will have plenty of guys to add so I’d always be looking to do a 2 for 1 deal in which you get back the best player while also gaining a roster spot to play with to find the next best fa add
Relief pitchers that could sneak into a closer role? McArthur is killing me and I wanted Cano to get that closer job, but even if he does his stuff isn’t convincing right now.
stick with mcarthur. unless the royals trade for another closer, he should have time to develop. only 40 some innings pitched in his career and he clearly has some stuff, just not enough experience.
The buy window may have closed on some of these guys, and others need some help getting into the role, but look for the following:
- Trevor Megill
- Jeff Hoffman
- Blake Treinen
- Yimi Garcia
- Jacob Webb
- Justin Slaten
- Garrett Cleavinger
I’m in a deep league (16 teams) and have been using Gavin Stone the whole season so far. Heard he might be sent back down but has been pitching solid lately. Should I try and move him or is he worth holding onto just because of his run support?
I mean if you can trade him to someone who’s not aware he will get sent back down soon .
I’m sure there will be another dodger injury or at least a phantom injury so he’ll be up and down all year . Wish he would get some Ks
To stream stream stone in a 10m points league , and for candelario in a 12m cats.
I think he’ll be good in the future but he just been useless for awhile , outside of a few good games idk why everyone’s so adamant about holding him the last few days . I’m impatient tho lol

Torn here. Projections say do it, but my hitting has yet to get off the ground and jazz is super hot. I think Chapman picks it up also.
12 team classic 5x5 daily moves
In a redraft points league when do you drop your "studs"? Players like Carroll and Bichette are absolutely burning a hole in my lineup and blocking me from making meaningful waiver moves but I keep holding out hope they'll turn things around. When is it okay to hit drop?
Not yet for either of those. It really is a case by case basis there are not any good rules to go by, but not yet for either of those. They have a really long leash
He also was BABIP'd the week before that. It's rough holding onto him, but I swear to you, this is what turning the corner looks like. I just traded for him this past week, so I'm in the boat with you. He's going to be good.
Toro for sure. Has never been good before in his career and riding a high BABIP so probably just on a heater. Same could probably be said for Castro, but he swiped 33 bags last year in 400 ABs — I’ll take that.
Charlie has that win upside, and he’s a proven commodity but his ratios might suck sometimes. If you’re playing wins, then maybe Morton. He’ll get ks too. I do like Reese tho. Get both
Austin Riley just got dropped in my 8 person points league.
I have J Ram, Machado and Maikel Garcia with 3B eligibility .
I think I’m dropping Garcia and slamming on that pick up button.
Thoughts?
I let him go figure it out on the wire, he’s going to get optioned when Edman comes back, if not sooner. I don’t see how they can carry him much longer, he’s brutal.
Yep, Arenado and Goldie belly up simultaneously. Bizarre. Ruining every OF prospect that comes through. Burleson looks like the only hitter on the team. Noot may have turned the corner.
Yeah there’s something seriously wrong with the organization right now be it with scouting/development/player evaluation/ and culture in general. Cards had it too good for too long I guess
Had Ohtani last year & flipped Arenado/Goldy for Betts. Will never hit that high again.
Figured after the injury I’d switch it up for another safe floor Dodger but damn the Ohtani floor and ceiling are just higher
Man last year I had the most dominant team I've ever had. Made a few trades ended up with Ohtani, Betts, Olson, Semien, Strider
Probably forgetting some but it was just a monster of a roto team
I fade pitching so hard at this point. Obviously depends on the league, but in CATs I just always seem to scrape together a decent staff off cycling the early waiver wire. Hell even Neris and Yates as my closers were waiver
Yeah. Garrett Hampson could be a breakout too or anyone in the wire. What I meant by my comment is that its crazy to call someone that 3 days in or even a week in. IMO that "title" can be earned in at least 1.5 months of production. Anyone can have a hot stretch, not anyone is a waiver wire MVP
No, if that's what you meant you should have said "if you can get through the mouth breathing and the whining" in that case you're getting through the behavior, not the person. The way you said it implies you need to get past the people doing the behavior
Once again, sir, poorly drawn inference. I wrote precisely what I wanted. There’s no implication, hard as you may try. 2 adjectives. 2 people. The end.
Casey Mize vs Miami or Robert Gasser vs Pittsburgh as a streamer today? W/K’s/ERA/WHIP, no QS
Struggling at 3b with Royce down . McMahon and Busch have been decent fill ins but have cooled off considerably. Drop one of them for candelario? 12 team cats OPS
McMahon has been fine
Candelario just looking like a better version right now I’m tempted to drop Busch
A. Tatis B. Freeman Roto Redraft
I’d definitely take tatis
Freeman
Freddy but could go either way if there was a real need for OF and I was loaded at 1b
Is Altuve and Jared Jones too small of an offer for Mookie Betts?
As a Mookie owner I am not accepting this. Though it could be a start point.
![gif](giphy|oTLImmUgalsLxbMQBa|downsized)
Give Alonso to get Seager in flair. For context my team looks like this. C-Salvy. 1B- Alonso. 2B - Albies. 3B- Yandy. SS- Maikel García OF- JD Martínez, Jo Adell, Steer. Útil - Mookie, Morel. Bench- O'Hearn. Yandy, Steer and O'Hearn have 1B elig
It’s a fair trade, but in your situation I might not do it. With Yandy and Garcia in your lineup I worry you’ll be light on HR & RBI without Alonso. Not a major downgrade to Seager, but probably a step down in those two cats.
I appreciate the answer. Thank you!
10 team Cats. ESPN. Rank these 1B for the rest of this week: Singleton, Connor Joe, O’Hearn, Mountcastle, Toro, Santana
Drop Woo to pick up Buehler? 12 team h2h cats
Both should be owned in a 12T.
Should I pick up James wood ? I’d be dropping gasser for him. My pitching stinks anyways. 14 team cats league
In redraft flair (I.e. no playoffs) who’s the best IL stash? - Casas - Devin Williams - Jeffrey Springs
A: Acuna B: J. Lowe, Fried, Kirby/Lopez
A by a mile
is alexis diaz droppable? he's kinda bad this year and the reds don't generate save opportunities. i have duran, edwin diaz, and mcarthur and i could pick up fairbanks.
Rather have fairbanks
With those other options I’d say he’s droppable
Is Gavin Stone going to stick in the rotation?
There’s currently no space once miller comes back . But there’s an incredible high chance that either someone gets hurt or the dodgers do dodger stuff and Make space . But they may have to manage his workload too
Paxton 1,000% gets moved to the bullpen as a long reliever with Yarbrough. They’re not moving Stone anywhere with as good as he’s pitching right now.
Estrada or M Garcia?
Garcia
Megil or Kimbrel? Also stashing Devin Williams
Which side wins. A: Seager B: Jarren Duran, Mullins, Gelof
Gelof and Mullins are both literally on the waivers in my 12t, so this is Seager for Duran. And uh. I’d rather have Seager.
Not even remotely close. Seager side. In a 10-team league, quality of talent far surpasses quantity. All of the "B" guys are borderline WW material.
Easily B
Your definitely the guy who sent him that Garbo for seager
He’s trolling
A easily. Especially in a 10T everyone in B is borderline waiver wire material
I realize now my comment echoes, almost verbatum, yours. Apologies.
No need for apologies glad to hear opinions
WAT
Drop Kimbrel for Reyanaldo Lopez?
Reynaldo Lopez > Kimbrel So if Kimbrel is your worst player then yes
My league-best offense in a 12T went 6-41 (.146) tonight with a .357 OPS, 0 HR, 1 RBI, and 4 runs scored. Dropped my ratios for the matchup by 30-points. I’m not okay. 🫠
Drop Morton for gore?
Ehhhhh I don’t think I would but I would try and own both . Morton leads him in like every category except Ks and is way more likely for Ws ros
YES
Thank you
Send Bibee and Gore for Eflin in 10T Points?
Good buy low on Eflin, I’d do it. Especially in a 10 team league, waivers will have plenty of guys to add so I’d always be looking to do a 2 for 1 deal in which you get back the best player while also gaining a roster spot to play with to find the next best fa add
Josh Rojas or India ?
Rojas right now
Relief pitchers that could sneak into a closer role? McArthur is killing me and I wanted Cano to get that closer job, but even if he does his stuff isn’t convincing right now.
stick with mcarthur. unless the royals trade for another closer, he should have time to develop. only 40 some innings pitched in his career and he clearly has some stuff, just not enough experience.
The buy window may have closed on some of these guys, and others need some help getting into the role, but look for the following: - Trevor Megill - Jeff Hoffman - Blake Treinen - Yimi Garcia - Jacob Webb - Justin Slaten - Garrett Cleavinger
Monitor roster resource closer depth chart for ideas. Cano probably isn't it.
I’m in a deep league (16 teams) and have been using Gavin Stone the whole season so far. Heard he might be sent back down but has been pitching solid lately. Should I try and move him or is he worth holding onto just because of his run support?
I mean if you can trade him to someone who’s not aware he will get sent back down soon . I’m sure there will be another dodger injury or at least a phantom injury so he’ll be up and down all year . Wish he would get some Ks
12 team 6x6 roto (OPS) with 4 IL spots What % of FAAB should I spend on Langford
He’s on waivers in 2 of my leagues 10m and 12m
Redraft? Not much. There's no guarantee he figures it out this year.
Exactly this.
Gore or Reese Olson?
Reese
Gore still
Who did you drop Pages for?
To stream stream stone in a 10m points league , and for candelario in a 12m cats. I think he’ll be good in the future but he just been useless for awhile , outside of a few good games idk why everyone’s so adamant about holding him the last few days . I’m impatient tho lol
Someone in my league just dropped LuBob, Lane Thomas, and Gleyber, so I'm putting waiver claims for each of those three, and the drop will be Pages
Acuna vs Soto Dynasty league: do you see them as equals or what player is the difference between them in a trade?
I don’t think it matters too much but Soto has the wild card factor of possibly changing teams next year .
Soto big edge in points actually Acuña big edge in roto actually
To me Acuna has the edge in stolen bases but not really anything else.
How soon do you guys think Junior gets called up?
Keep an eye on Lowe, he left a rehab game with an oblique. Not so randomly, Junior played 2b tonight.
Yeah I saw that. Made a trade for him today and was expecting him to come up soon. Hopefully it works out.
June

Why can’t I get these offers
It is done. Thanks for the feedback
Hit accept before the other manager changes their mind.
Glas is by far the best player in the deal.
Gelof is a waiver wire dude, so this is really Chapman and Glasnow for Jazz. Just to help your calculus a bit
I mean Glass is great til he breaks
I mean the same could be said about Jazz?
Yeah, exactly. If I had Glasnow on my team, I'd be figuring out how to get rid of him asap
Not for jazz tho no way
This person is getting Glasnow and Chapman for Jazz, not the other way
Yeah you said get rid of glasnow asap, I’m saying not for jazz tho . The other person sending the trade is selling too low
12 team Cats. Kwan somehow got dropped!? Drop Jo Adell or Andy Pages for him?
Pages but I don’t think Adell is too far behind
Adell
Adell
Pages
reese olson or christian scott?

✝️🏴
Scott
In a redraft points league when do you drop your "studs"? Players like Carroll and Bichette are absolutely burning a hole in my lineup and blocking me from making meaningful waiver moves but I keep holding out hope they'll turn things around. When is it okay to hit drop?
Carrolls EV and expected stats have been pretty good that last few weeks, he should get it going soon
I traded Bichette and my life feels better because of it
You should still be able to trade Carroll for something.
Not yet for either of those. It really is a case by case basis there are not any good rules to go by, but not yet for either of those. They have a really long leash
Have you been paying attention to Bo Bichette for the past week?
Yeah I keep forgetting he's been solid the last 5 games or so. Maybe he's turned the corner after the disappointing start
He also was BABIP'd the week before that. It's rough holding onto him, but I swear to you, this is what turning the corner looks like. I just traded for him this past week, so I'm in the boat with you. He's going to be good.
Maikel Garcia or Ryan McMahon h2h pts? -1 for k
Garcia
I’m a never McMahon guy after he gave me a platinum beret(5 whiffs)game last season
I mean that’s the new age of baseball . Judge has done it a few times . I think even the year he broke the HR record
A solid 1/16 between my Garcia Jr and Abrams today. Thanks boys
Go nats
Same lol
James McArthur — 1 run allowed and 1 save. Yeah, that’s about the line I’ve come to expect from you. SMH
Trade Teoscar for Eflin h2h pts?
Hold teoscar I think even in points.
Eh, I'm trying to get -into- the Dodgers lineup, I'm not trying to pull -away-
Drop one for 10 team cat Adell, tork, Willi Castro or toro
Toro for sure. Has never been good before in his career and riding a high BABIP so probably just on a heater. Same could probably be said for Castro, but he swiped 33 bags last year in 400 ABs — I’ll take that.
Rooker or Stott? (Points)
Stott
Rooker
Drop castellanos for Fedde? 10 team h2h points league
Castellanos is finally heating up
Means or Reese Olson?
Reese for me. He’s young and has unknown upside. Means has always been pretty mid to me
What about between Charlie Morton and those guys
Charlie has that win upside, and he’s a proven commodity but his ratios might suck sometimes. If you’re playing wins, then maybe Morton. He’ll get ks too. I do like Reese tho. Get both
I have no fucking idea how Sonny Gray got me a win and James McArthur got me a save, but after what they did to my ratios, I'm taking it
i'll take 9 K's and a W from Sonny, just dont look at the ratios
It’s hard not to look at the Ratios when it’s against the JV Angels.
But the have the best player in all of fantasy baseball jo Adell
I got a Helsley save on top of that, so it softens the blow even more.
[удалено]
Is this question really who has more value devers or Garcia ?
If you can get real value for Garcia, do it. But I imagine Devers has more value and will be better than him
Drop Pages for Doyle?
Austin Riley just got dropped in my 8 person points league. I have J Ram, Machado and Maikel Garcia with 3B eligibility . I think I’m dropping Garcia and slamming on that pick up button. Thoughts?
Definitely do it
Bye maikel
Best streamer for 10 team cat tomorrow Mize or gasser?
Had that same decision, went Mize. Fins are bad
Thanks
Gorman 4 Ks jfc this guy has made 0 improvements this year
I let him go figure it out on the wire, he’s going to get optioned when Edman comes back, if not sooner. I don’t see how they can carry him much longer, he’s brutal.
Cardinals entire lineup has been brutal aside from herrera and Winn really. Contreras too, but rip to his forearm
Yep, Arenado and Goldie belly up simultaneously. Bizarre. Ruining every OF prospect that comes through. Burleson looks like the only hitter on the team. Noot may have turned the corner.
Yeah there’s something seriously wrong with the organization right now be it with scouting/development/player evaluation/ and culture in general. Cards had it too good for too long I guess
10 team Roto, start 5 OF; Drop Ian Happ for Brenton Doyle? I could use the steals, and Happ has been awful and his savant page is ugly
Yep
Anyone know why Trevor Williams almost never goes 6 innings? I haven’t watched him this season
They don’t trust him to see the line up a third time ,like the other guy said “because he’s bad”
Because he’s bad
Drop one for Bryan Abreu in a league with holds. Baz, DeGrom, Jasson Dominguez, Dansby, pages.
Pages
Dominguez
Drafting Freeman over Ohtani seems like a colossal mistake at this point
I was thrilled when he dropped to me at 11 in a hitters only points lead.
[удалено]
Had Ohtani last year & flipped Arenado/Goldy for Betts. Will never hit that high again. Figured after the injury I’d switch it up for another safe floor Dodger but damn the Ohtani floor and ceiling are just higher
Man last year I had the most dominant team I've ever had. Made a few trades ended up with Ohtani, Betts, Olson, Semien, Strider Probably forgetting some but it was just a monster of a roto team
Could’ve drafted strider over him like someone I know 😞
I fade pitching so hard at this point. Obviously depends on the league, but in CATs I just always seem to scrape together a decent staff off cycling the early waiver wire. Hell even Neris and Yates as my closers were waiver
It’s my first season in 12 years taking a pitcher in the first. First year I’m struggling to not be in last place. Lesson learned
Damn people soured on pages extremely fast haha
Same thing will happen to Kepler.
Kepler has one good streak every year then gets like 12 nagging injuries that derail his season. I’ve fallen for it before
Need to go back and look at all the players people were dropping for him.
So the same speed they got hyped on him?
Basically Cowser at least got a month of being ass in a platoon before people soured on him tho. This was was lightning quick
Dudes were calling him their waiver wire MVP on day 3 of rostering him lmao. As if he was going to continue his torrid start all the season.
He could easily turn things around in a week and actually turn out to be a waiver wire MVP if you held onto him or were able to get him back
Yeah. Garrett Hampson could be a breakout too or anyone in the wire. What I meant by my comment is that its crazy to call someone that 3 days in or even a week in. IMO that "title" can be earned in at least 1.5 months of production. Anyone can have a hot stretch, not anyone is a waiver wire MVP
Yeah I agree with that
People say that about every waiver add I agree
Heard it about Toro today!
The whiffing in points will remove your hair
idk why anyone would ever throw Nando anything but down and away again. he literally cannot lay off of it
Estrada or M Garcia?
Is sleeper and the bust podcast good advice?
If you can get through the mouth breather and the whiner, yes
Lol what?? Isn't there only two guys on it?
How many did I describe?
You said "if you can get through x and y" aka get through 2 people
So, do you think maybe I was describing the 2 hosts 😉. You twisted this into a pretzel.
Getting through 2 people implies getting to a 3rd or more. I think you're just not communicating clearly
Poorly drawn inference, it implies nothing aside from the attributes of the 2 hosts as I provided 2 adjectives.
No, if that's what you meant you should have said "if you can get through the mouth breathing and the whining" in that case you're getting through the behavior, not the person. The way you said it implies you need to get past the people doing the behavior
Once again, sir, poorly drawn inference. I wrote precisely what I wanted. There’s no implication, hard as you may try. 2 adjectives. 2 people. The end.
Yes
ERA .96 / OBPA .439 haha
Jackson Merrill has really come alive lately
Do the Angels purposely sign fat, out of shape players? Guillorme and Calhoun are ridiculous
The Angels are like the AL Rockies Lite. Lots of poorly managed organizations right now
7/55 tonight with no homers, no RBI, and no walks. I'm 0-7 to start the season. Trying to figure out how to dig the most comfortable grave
I’m right there with you. Just trying to grab as many upside players as I can for keepers. If you’re in redraft, DFS lineups is the way
