quarterly reminder that every manager says they're going to a committee but never actually do and it's just a way to ease the closer they want in and remove him without drama if he sucks.

Junkyard Poodle posted:Out of curiosity. What are the odds k rod returns as a closer? I had him before, already picked up replacement and kinda want the extra slot to stream/find another closer (maybe dbacks? Bradley?) His demise reminds me of Jose Valverde's. The Tigers don't have a good bullpen and them doing this is because they've exhausted all other options/attempts to retain him.

Today was good for streaming, unless you chose Bartolo Colon or Jharel Cotton. In one league, all 8 of the pitchers I played made an appearance (4 SP, 4 RP) and only two, maybe three got drafted in most leagues, and even then, outside the first dozen rounds or so. Andrew Miller, Raisel Iglesias, Julio Urias Final line: 31 IP, 2 W, 2 SV, 21 K, 1.16 ERA, 0.77 WHIP. Two SP left with leads that the bullpen lost. Final analysis: gently caress drafting SP Doltos posted:I finally cut Jackie Bradley Jr. and a quick look up at the draft results showed that I could have easily had Benintendi instead Looking back at the draft for me tends to be depressing.

C: Posey 1B: Hanley 2B: Kinsler SS: B. Miller 3B: Castellanos OF: Cruz, CarGo, Thames, Trumbo U: Hosmer BN: Schoop DL: Beltre, JD Martinez SP: Kershaw, Lackey, Pineda, Urias, Samardzija, Wood, Andriese RP: Oh, Osuna, Ramos, A. Miller DL: Bumgarner 12 team 5x5 H2H, standard categories. I'm the guy who went pitcher pitcher in the first two rounds when I should have taken a shortstop. Now I'm about to have a logjam in my outfield with JD Martinez returning soon. I've been throwing out trade offers of Thames for most of the better shortstops but no one's biting. I'm thinking about dropping Schoop so I can bench CarGo for the time being. I could also drop Andriese but I prefer to stack my bench with pitchers. What would you guys do here?

Even with Maeda's 8.1 IP 2.16 ERA performance, I finished with a 9.00 ERA in 10IP thanks to Benoit and Familia's disasters.

What are the chances that Alex Bregman or Dee Gordon get SS eligibility on Yahoo by the ASB? I'm in a league where some dick drafted and picked up almost every SS (literally a team of 23 SS) so no good SS are available and the owners that did manage to get one aren't selling. I have Gordon, and just traded Longoria for Bregman on the off chance he picks it up. Gordon just started one game at SS, while Bregman is at 6 games played remaining and 2 starts remaining.

Speaking of Bregman, is he worth using my top waiver priority on? I'm not really saving it for anything, but we have daily waivers and I just haven't been making any moves. I'd probably be dropping Moustakas or Castellanos.

He said it's not enough for Springer, countered my Villar+Myers+somebody for Santana+C. Seager+Shark. I have Posey at catcher, so Realmuto is definitely dealable for me. If I can get my Villar/Myers/Realmuto for his Santana/C. Seager/Shark do you think that's good value? I'm pretty high on Myers, but not sure about Villar at this point (and I think Seager is a straight upgrade there.) This is 12-tm H2H. If Taillon doesn't come back this season, having Shark would definitely help my rotation. EDIT: Writing that out made me realize that yeah I want to make this deal work, thanks forum!

Anybody needing a Catcher should consider James McCann. He seems to be figuring out the whole hitting thing. Him and Avila are taking turns raking.

https://twitter.com/MLBNetworkRadio/status/863131174398504960 I dropped Bedrosian, shuffled my DL around, and added Knebel in one league earlier today after taking another look at Feliz' stats, so I feel pretty smart right now. Knebel has a 14.50 K/9 so far this year and may very well just run away with the job.

I got Bellinger, Gallo and Zimmerman off waivers. My offense is awesome. I went into the season with Byung Ho Park as my starting 1B since I missed out on the top tier guys and figured it would be better to get someone off waivers than overpay for mid tier guys like Abreu/Agonz/Pujols. so far it's worked out pretty well.

Nice. Zimmerman has been godlike so far. I wish I owned any shares of him. This team has Bellinger, Gallo, Castro, and Mark Reynolds from waivers. Pretty happy with that. (We won't mention that I drafted Thames and dropped him. No, let's not mention that...)

Someone dropped zobrist in my league. Right now I have 2B: Castro, Murphy, odor Of: Betts, Hamilton, conforto, bellinger, JBJ Do I drop JBJ for zobrist? They're both players that I think will bounce back. If not JBJ I'd probably drop one of my back-end pitchers (griffin or Miley or Hahn I guess). I'm struggling with that because my 2b/of seem really good and my rotation kind of sucks.

Early in the week, I had a surplus of closers, and was trying to pry McCullers from a dude. Now, both Melancon and Familia went down (with Bedrosian still on the DL), and I am trying to get Jansen off another person.
