Uuuugh. 12 Team R, RBI, SB, OPS | IP, ERA, WHIP, K (162 start limit to the season) league someone offered me this..
Give: Austin Meadows, TB RF
Give: Zack Greinke, Ari SP

Get: Miles Mikolas, StL SP
Get: Manny Machado, SD SS

And I feel very very bad/dumb for wanting to decline it because I cant really afford to give up any of the steals Meadows will give me and...I don't trust Machado! I am desperate for OPS.
I am dumb for not wanting Machado, right? I may counter with giving up a lesser SP.

E: fangraphs assorted projections slightly like machado more than meadows except for steals. the athletic's rankings now have them separated by 3 spots in overall hitters. pitcherlist's rankings by 7 spots. I hate this.

Who do you have in the OF and at SS now? I think Greinke to Mikolas is a pretty big drop, especially since you're banking on Manny turning it around rather than maintaining.

Has anyone encountered an error on ESPN when making a trade? It says: "You must drop at least 1 player to clear your roster for the incoming player.". Fine, I choose a player to drop in the trade. Still gives me the error. I'm baffled.

I do have a pending trade that is waiting to be confirmed but I don't know why that would mess it up. It's a 1 for 1 deal.

ESPN has stricter eligibility requirements than Yahoo. A guy needs 20 games played (not started) in the previous year to qualify, or 10 GP in the current year. Davis has 3 games in the OF this year so he needs 7 more.

Giving up Hicks? I'd do that at this point in the season. Even more so if it's H2H

Depends on how deep the league is, but I am not entirely convinced after his hot start.

I am getting sick of Bauer.

I’m not that worried about smith. He’s dinger prone and played in Miller. Probably just start him at home for a while when he’s off the IL

he's been pretty useless batting against righties. i'd possibly be dropping him in 12 team redrafts too

Given how bad both those players have been I think getting Trea Turner is a steal, literally and figuratively.

Cool. The other guy was desperate to shore up his pitching staff, so I was glad he bit on it. An underperforming 2nd and 3rd rounder for a 1st. I think Nola and Machado will both come around to an extent, but pairing Turner with Yelich at the top of my offense is very nice. Myers isn't exactly a slouch, either.

I just tried to grab him and he's already taken. Waiver wire is somehow pitching barren. This 12 team $20 Yahoo pro league is way goddamn deeper than any 12 team should ever be. I'm hating fantasy so much this year.

Any New York fans have insight on Aaron Judge?

I was offered Judge for Gerrit Cole, which is iffy given his injury. However, the league has unlimited weekly transactions, which allows for a wildly different pitching strategy in terms of streaming. My starting staff of Cole, Sale, Minor, Bumgarner, Hill is pretty drat good and I probably wouldn't want to break it up in most leagues, but I feel hitting is further undervalued in such a league.
