I just got offered Keon Broxton for my Sean Manaea. I honestly don't know much about Broxton and I don't really need him, but for keeper value alone I should accept that right?

I like Broxton a lot and do not care at all for Manea, so sure go for it.

Broxton has 20/40 potential. I don't know much about Manea to be honest.

If your league uses OBP in any way, I would take Bautista over Grichuk. Similar projected HR etc. counts, but Bautista's projected OBP is ~60 points higher.

This isn't my OBP league. I'm gonna claim Bautista but dunno who to drop (maybe Grichuk), and if I can find 2 drops I'll put in a claim for Bregman too.

Picked him up today. Beginning to think my league is full of people who don't care and people who don't know what they're doin'. Speaking of pickups, are there any catchers you guys can recommend I watch out for as callups?

Travis D'Arnaud seems to be the hot ticket right now.

Good thing I whiffed on Marte in most leagues, even though he was my top priority in the late 2nd, early 3rd.

What's a good feeler trade to float out there?

My friend who owns him just said he was gonna cut him once Kipnis comes off the DL, so maybe wait to see if he gets dropped first.

It's always fun when the middle relievers you draft in holds leagues get too good and end up as closers. And by always fun I mean not fun at all.

Man, Judge is a monster.

I'm loving this outfield of Judge/Braun/Myers/Haniger/Garcia.

Also Judge/Thames/Brantley.

Free agent moves of the season so far for me:

Judge x 2 out of 5 leagues
Thames x 1
Haniger x 3
Brantley x 1
Leake x 4
Holland x 3
Bundy x 2

I remember looking at his name after he hit his first 2 HR's. I thought he would be at best an empty stat power guy bringing down my average.
Think he got scooped up the next day. Now i'm actually more in shock over the whole team, they are crushing right now. Judge is a beast, even with regression. Can't believe this team will get Sanchez back as well.

Around the same time, my buddy in my OBP league traded Judge to someone for Rajai Davis. He's pretty pissed.

I'm absolutely crushing my OBP league (47-11-2) and I have no idea how this team is doing it. My offense isn't exactly dominant, and neither is my rotation. My bullpen is outstanding though.

Soooo Britton is a free agent in one of my leagues. I have 5 closers. I don't know who to drop.

My closers are Holland, Watson, Bush, Norris, Knebel.

edit: poo poo, I gotta drop 2 since I have Story still in a DL spot, so drop 1 closer to activate story, then drop another to pickup Britton or should I not bother?
