Gimme Cutch, unless you need HR over steals.

doesn't matter if you need steals over HR. always take HR. you can find steals on waivers at any point in the season. HR, not so much.

Playoffs are no big deal,
don't have a crap attack.
One of these years, Harper was going to become a top-5 player. It's still a long season, but I wouldn't be surprised if this was the level he played at for the rest of the season (well, maybe not the "5 homers in 2 games" level).

Depends. You won't sweep a roto league by only taking .200 25 HR batters but getting quality bats that specialize in contact and power over contact and speed usually gives you pretty good RBI, HR, and probably good BB/Runs too. Steal guys like Hamilton and Coco Crisp will give you a ton of steals, probably a healthy amount of runs, but will murder your average and .obps.

It's very strange that Guerrero doesn't have 2B eligibility on Yahoo, as he played 50+ games there last year in the minors. At least he'll be getting 3B with one more start.

finally getting it 2 weeks later :argh:

Salazar has 11 ks through 6 IP so far.

The most encouraging thing about Salazar is that he isn't walking anyone. 5 walks on the season and none in his last 3 starts (including today so far). I'm all in on Danny Salazar

Yahoo app needs to fix its loving push notifications. Last season you had the option to get alerts about players sitting and starting before game time

Last year the yahoo app spammed my phone with push notifications like 3 different times a few weeks apart. When I had all push notifications off. And it was the same one over and over again, like 75 times.

I had to uninstall the app and wait a couple of days for it to stop because it was doing it in the middle of the night.

So I'd rather them not touch the push notification system since its not doing that to me right now.

Is Carlos Frias worth picking up this week as a 2 start pitcher?

It is for a RP slot; Francisco Rodriguez and Uehara are also available but it is a points league and generally starters are more productive.

Also this is me cutting Alex Wood.

Playoffs are no big deal,
don't have a crap attack.
What do you do in a league where there's no pitcher of worth on the WW, and you drafted a collection of lottery tickets (Fiers, Shoemaker, and Hutch) and injured pitchers (Wheeler, Bailey, and Ryu), so there's no help on the way.

Ride it out, ride it out, ride it out.

My pitchers have pitched a stellar 4.74 ERA with a 1.44 WHIP.
