I'm pretty much a neophyte in fantasy baseball (first try was last year) and I'm hoping for some keeper advice. I'm in GB's league (6x6 stats, 3 Keepers), and last year I kept Ohtani, Trout, and then the tough choic3 was Bichette over Freeman (sort of a whoopsie homer pick). This year I'm unsure how much I should consider positional depth, i.e. which positions have the steepest decline in expected production among the top available players. Also how much risk I should factor in for age & injury history? I know it isn't "wrong" to keep the same 3, but I'm curious if anyone has an argument for swapping someone out. SP/DH Ohtani (Kept last year) OF Trout (Kept last year) 2B Bichette (Kept last year) SP Verlander C Realmuto OF Springer OF Kwan OF/DH Arozarena My thought process (quite possibly flawed) was: - Ohtani is a lock - If I'm concerned about Trout's health then Springer is equally a concern, so farewell George - Kwan sacrifices too much power for speed, good luck Steven - Arozarena is interesting but like Kwan trades off a lot for SB, hasta tarde Randy - Bichette was inconsistent early last year but ended up being my best for H, R, Avg, and was a contributor everywhere else, welcome back Bo? - Realmuto was great but there's no logic behind keeping a C over an every day 2B, right? - So after all that I have Ohtani locked, and Trout, Bichette, and Verlander to consider for the final two keeper spots. And this is where I'm stumped in terms of gauging (ideal performance if healthy) vs (expected value when considering age/injury) vs (how many players are strong bets to produce 90%+ as much this year)? Thanks for reading all this nonsense, appreciate any quick takes & feel free to make me look like a dummy if I'm overlooking something obvious.

You cannot go wrong with either Bichette or Verlander. Both are solid as keepers.

General Bullshit posted:You cannot go wrong with either Bichette or Verlander. Both are solid as keepers. Yeah, feels like any 2/3 combo of Trout, Bichette, Verlander could be justified. I've got to figure out which position has depth at the top, or crystal ball the health of Trout vs Verlander.

Just finished drafting a $25 H2H 7x7 12 team league. Runs, Hits, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OBP Wins, SV, Ks, ERA, WHIP, K/9, QS Going in, I was a little unsure how this draft was gonna go, with both Wins and Quality Starts scored for SP I thought I might have to go for SP a little earlier, but that was not the case. I could probably use another SP, but this staff will do to start. Bogaerts and Goldy felt like steals where I got them. I was grateful Arenado lasted until my pick in the 3rd, 3b gets thin quickly after that.

Took a few years off from most of my leagues post-pandemmer but I'm back in and up to four leagues for now. Had a TGFBI satellite draft back in early February (hence the injured/AAA players):code:

I had to drop Ottoneu. It was a lot of fun, but its such a big time investment to do right. I limit myself to 3 leagues of various difficulty and I find myself enjoying things a lot more this way.

Finally drafted in my home/money league tonight (12-tm H2H 7x7 with OBP/SLG and QS/L) and I got so used to 15 teamers and/or super-deep leagues that I was continually caught off guard by the names still available. I could have had Gabriel Moreno in the last round! Pitching will need reinforcement but I'd rather be streaming pitching than hitting!

Joined a 20-team dynasty league (keep up to 23 players, everyone in Fantrax pool available) with a H2H 6x6 (HR, RBI, OBP, SBN, TB, RC) (QS, K, ERA, WHIP, S+H, HR/9). Definitely a new format for me. Took over a very bad roster, and before the draft I dealt Lance Lynn for Ke'Bryan Hayes and Andres Munoz. Still I only ended up keeping six guys, so I had the first four picks of the snake draft, then was only drafting with two other teams for the next few rounds as well. After the draft and some add/drops I ended up with this:code:

Doesn't hurt he'll have 2B elig by the end of the second week, I suppose. EDIT: Also I think it's funny what's happened with Rasmussen and Springs, and Framber and Javier. Everybody wants the new hotness this year. (I really, really considered Javier instead of Framber, but I figured I should balance out McClanahan with somebody who'll probably get a lot more QSes.)

In a 12 teamer last night, I took Jordan Walker with the 81st overall pick, Volpe with the 129th, and I have no absolutely no idea if I reached or got a steal on one or both.

Walker's ADP seems to have jumped to about 80, so you're right in line there. I would expect Volpe's to climp into the top 100, around the Oneil Cruz range maybe. I managed to get Walker in 3 of 3 keeper leagues, I kept him in 1 league and in the other 2 I got him at picks #148 and #164, drafted last week. Volpe I managed to get in 2 of 3 keepers, at picks #221 and #213, drafted last week. I like drafting a little early.

Check out ADP to see where guys are going: https://www.fantasypros.com/mlb/adp/overall.php Do a mock draft before your real draft to get a feel for things. It can't hurt to make a quick and dirty ranking of the top guys at each position, so when it's time to choose between Scherzer/Strider/McClanahan, or Seager/Lindor/Bogaerts, or whatever, you already know who you want.

Yeah, definitely do a prize league if you live in a state that allows it, people do take it more seriously. With free public leagues you run the risk of people abandoning their teams and the league becoming dead. I drafted a free public league late February because I like to do one draft before rankings take shape, and 2 teams in the league have made moves since the draft.... it is dead already.
