I have Votto, Abreu, Zimmerman, and Santana as 1Bs in a points league. I need help at OF. Any thoughts about which of those guys I should dangle, and who I should target? IE, currently undervalued OFs....

edit - I could also really use a SS.

Where is your league hosted and how is positional eligibility determined? Carlos Santana is now OF eligible on Yahoo because he starts in RF when Cleveland is in an NL park. He could potentially become OF eligible for you too down the line (haven't looked at Cleveland's schedule).

This is on ESPN, he still needs 5 more games to be OF eligible (I was hoping for this solution)

Hmm yeah, looks like Cleveland only has 5 games left in NL parks, so assuming he doesn't start any at home he'll need to start all 5 of those and that still wouldn't get you eligibility until towards the end of July.

I think I'd try to move Zimmerman. His value is high and his injury history is not great.

Is he just droppable at this point? He was a guy I was targeting hard but now I'm actually really happy I didn't get him in all 3 leagues.

EDIT: No he's not, I walked myself off that ledge pretty quickly. I was definitely expecting #1-2 stuff from him though, not this spot starter bullshit.

He's been getting destroyed by any team with a decent offense; it's pretty worrying. I was expecting like you a 1-2 guy that would be taken in later rounds because he wasn't going to get W's for a lovely team.

If you have a real need at SS and other good OF, that's probably a pretty good deal. I am thinking about making a run at Manny in one league as well, there's no way he's this bad all season.

THREE TIME! THREE TIME!
In my 10 team roto league, I dropped Bregman the other day because I have too many 3B's and I really needed to retool my roster by positions. He has homered in all three games since I dropped him. (I do still own him in my other two leagues, but goddamn it.) I also forgot to switch Dozier and Gattis into my lineup before the early game this morning. I am just not fated to finish in the money in this league. Good lord.

Bregman was dropped in 2 of my Pro Leagues and I figured what the hell, I'll let him sit on the wire a few days. Went to add him this morning and he was gone in both :-/

The Great Twist
Is anyone else lucky enough to play in a league where add/drops are first come first serve? I've snatched up Miller, Kinsler and now Odor so far.

Also, I'd trade Judge for Machado in a heartbeat. I don't trust anyone with a .394 BABIP and a 40.5% HR/FB rate. It wouldn't surprise me if their numbers from here on out end up being very similar, and that kind of production is more valuable at SS. Although for the sake of my Yankees I hope he continues to be Barry Bonds.

My pitching has been so bad this week, I think I'm finally going to get my first matchup loss of the year in that league.

Bregman is the guy I kept in favor of Gallo when I dropped Gallo. So he's paying me back for my faith in him but Gallo has heated up also. Should have kept both. The dude who snagged Gallo spent 47 waiver bux

Are Cesar Hernandez or Eddy Nunez available in your league? They both play multiple positions and swipe bags. They're also both hitting reasonably well.
