I'm liking this Braun/Myers/Mazara/Haniger OF. All 4 guys ranked in the top 25, 2 in the top 10.

I actually had to put Bennitendi on the bench this week with Yelich/Myers/Mazara/Thames/Haniger taking up my 3 OF and 2 utility spots. This is a fun problem to have.

I made a mistake only having one league this year and it being a goon league because I can't complain about my team without tipping away how much I value my players.

Relax guys, I dropped Healy to stream a pitcher, so he's guaranteed to hit 1000000 dingers starting tonight.

Good thing I whiffed on Marte in most leagues, even though he was my top priority in the late 2nd, early 3rd.

What's a good feeler trade to float out there?

My friend who owns him just said he was gonna cut him once Kipnis comes off the DL, so maybe wait to see if he gets dropped first.

You're going to trade for a suspended player and keep him on your bench for 3 months? I don't see how you could unless you have big benches.

Frazier is probably the best bet. They may also move Bell out there and put Jaso at 1B.

Longshot is they call up Austin Meadows from AAA.

(This is just from reading a few sources. Meadows is a top prospect but his AAA numbers have been very bad so they likely won't bring up up to face MLB pitching right now even with the opening.)

Peraza just stole his 6th bag which I think leads the league, despite a .269 OBP. Billy Hamilton 2.0?

Why add Meadows when you can hop aboard the Avisail Garcia bandwagon? :derp:

Doghouse: Oct 22, 2004; I was playing Harvest Moon 64 with this kid who lived on my street and my cows were not doing well and I got so raged up and frustrated that my eyes welled up with tears and my friend was like are you crying dude. Are you crying because of the cows. I didn't understand the feeding mechanic.

Welp. My roto team is a total dumpster fire at the moment now that marte is suspended.

Outside of my 2 guys that aren't bad/injured/suspended in Goldy and Sano, I have Marte, Story, Rendon, Segura, Bautista...hopefully Story and Rendon turn it around soon, and Segura is back soon and was good before the injury, but right now it's not a pretty sight.
