How much longer should I wait it out with Wil Myers? I feel torn because I recently acquired him as a secondary piece in a trade, but at the same time I don't want that to hold me back from grabbing someone more worthwhile off the waiver wire. Myers is one of the most frustrating players in the game. I've ended up with him many times and every time he's on my team, he's absolute dogshit. Then when I drop him, someone else picks him up and he goes hog wild.

Outside of those two, my offense is great.

I wouldn't drop him for Winker but it's kind of close and if you're hurting in AVG or OPS or whatever more than you are in the counting stats Myers brings, I can see it. Taylor's exit velocity is way down (career: 87.4 / 2018: 88.6 / 2019: 84.2 mph) and his xBA, xWOBA, and hard hit % are all in the bottom 10% of the league. I would not touch that fella and his lies

I’m not really hurting in any particular offensive categories, which is why I’ve been patient. I feel like I should wait it out with him but he’s just been totally unplayable.

Altuve returned for me a few days ago, and now Springer and Gallo are back today.  Now I only have 3 IL players instead of 6!

I feel like I should wait it out with him but he’s just been totally unplayable. well if you're doing fine with him on the roster, I think you can make a solid case for keeping him and waiting it out. his batting average is way below expectations right now, you would expect it to come back up some - some. maybe he goes .245 the rest of the way, which with his counting stat production, would be dang good. over his last 30 days, he is hitting a ghastly .195 with just 2 HRs but does have 5 steals, and thanks to the help of his good eye, still has 13 runs scored. if you're in a league where nobody has Vogelbach on their roster right now, there should still be plenty of interesting guys to add in 2-3 weeks. I just have a fantasy hard-on for dudes who can dinger and swipe bags and will defend Myers until i or he dies Aye Doc fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Jun 26, 2019 |

I'll be sad if all my potential targets get snapped up and Myers continues to suck a fat turd, though. Thanks for all the input, fellas.

I feel like every middling closer I've touched this year has turned out pretty good. Shane Green, Hector Neris, Luke Jackson, Shawn Kelly. I seriously don't see the point in drafting closers.

the worst part about this season isn't the ball that allows hitters to hit dingers at will, it's the loving front offices and the use of the opener and the general chaos of how teams are run and managed now. fantasy baseball needs to change to reflect these things. like in 10yr, is there going to be a single pitcher who pitcher more than 6ip per start? i...kind of doubt it. eventually the win and the save and the dumber stats will go away. teams already don't care about them.

How many teams actually use an opener? people in our dynasty-lite league talked me into ditching QS for outs and I hate it. Whenever I look for streamers there are always tons of actual starting pitchers to pick up even though a lot of them are the exact quality of guys you would expect a team to use an opener for.

I want every team to use their closer as an opener for the first couple weeks of the season. Yes I use Yahoo, why do you ask?

quote:Raisel Iglesias was charged with a season-high four runs over an inning of work and was saddled with a loss against the Angels on Wednesday. Despite the rough outing, he remains an elite fantasy reliever and the undisputed closer in Cincinnati. Iglesias stats over the last 30 days? 7 1/3 IP, 2 SV, 9K, 6.14 ERA, 2.32 WHIP

There's nothing physically wrong with Blake Snell, right? I put out a feeler offer that actually got accepted, and he got dropped in another league. I get that his past few starts have inflated his ERA, but all his peripherals are really close to last year. The only things I can see are that his LOB% is down and his HR/FB are up, which just seems like a lot of bad luck to me.
