Someone tell me to stop way overthinking things and to keep Mookie in the second round instead of Yu in the 14th or Schwarber in the 25th it's that same 10-team league

Moneyball posted:I actually like your team. But what are the settings? 14 team h2h R/HR/RBI/SB/AVG/OPB/SLG W/SV/K/ERA/WHIP/KBB/OBPA Twin Cinema posted:This draft was largely a failure in my eyes. I wasn't planning on drafting a stars and scrubs team, yet here we are. I also tried to adopt IcePhoenix's strategy of focusing solely on relievers, but then didn't have enough money to actually follow through with that plan. The only plus side is that I have no attachments to half of my roster, so I probably won't keep a player if they perform poorly, whereas I typically don't start dropping guys until at least May. I actually went a bit overboard on the relievers because I was saving money for them and suddenly there were no hitters because nobody was nominating the relievers (whereas last year a bunch went in the middle of the draft). So uh, if you're in this league I'll trade one or two for a hitting upgrade  Here's my draft for posterity. Standard offensive starters, 2 SP, 2 RP, 4P for pitching starters. 1. (15) Miguel Cabrera (Det - 1B) $40 2. (16) Corey Seager (LAD - SS) $35 3. (35) Robinson Canó (Sea - 2B) $29 4. (38) Nelson Cruz (Sea - OF) $27 5. (46) Jake Arrieta (ChC - SP) $26 6. (49) Andrew Miller (Cle - RP) $15 7. (56) Justin Verlander (Det - SP) $25 8. (96) Wade Davis (ChC - RP) $12 9. (146) José Ramírez (Cle - 3B,OF) $6 10. (182) Álex Colomé (TB - RP) $6 11. (185) Russell Martin (Tor - C) $1 12. (194) Raisel Iglesias (Cin - SP,RP) $3 13. (197) Nomar Mazara (Tex - OF) $3 14. (199) Addison Reed (NYM - RP) $1 15. (213) Shawn Kelley (Was - RP) $3 16. (227) Max Kepler (Min - OF) $3 17. (234) Cam Bedrosian (LAA - RP) $5 18. (240) Brandon Drury (Ari - 2B,3B,OF) $1 19. (242) Héctor Neris (Phi - RP) $4 20. (252) Carlos Gómez (Tex - OF) $1 21. (275) José De León (TB - SP) $1 22. (286) Luke Gregerson (Hou - RP) $1 23. (296) Francisco Cervelli (Pit - C) $12 Cervelli was just me dumping all my remaining budget in because I just wanted to leave and go back to Horizon. One of these days I need to see what happens if I just skip the first couple tiers of players and fill my team with a ton of 15-20-ish dollar guys.

I'm getting close to the point where I have to decide my keepers in the dynasty-lite league and I'm still waffling on current vs potential. We keep ten at no cost, they're your first ten picks. 12 team h2h, 6x6 with OPS and QS added. Most of my keepers I've already decided on: Trout, Stanton, Miggy Cabs, Cano, Dozier, Buxton, Sano Kluber, Tanaka For the last spot I have to decide between: Kemp, Mazara, Jose Ramirez, Aledmys Diaz Interested if anyone has any insight on those four. We have a normal starting lineup for fantasy. e: I forgot a player IcePhoenix fucked around with this message at 20:27 on Mar 13, 2017 |

I was mostly just curious if anyone thought Dozier could do last season again. I'm pretty sure I'm in the same league and yeah the new keeper rules are a bit strange and not really an improvement over the old ones Also, Dozier might be able to do last season again but I'd still go with Thor in the 25th.

Inspector_666 posted:Have any of you dealt with adding new teams to a keeper league? How did you handle it? Depends on the keeper rules. Easiest thing I can think of is to do an expansion draft that allows them to pick keepers from players not being kept by other teams (ie: if I have Schwarber in the 13th but am not keeping him, they could "draft" him and keep him in the 13th).

When you're in the middle they're really only contributing to one category out of seven, and you're going to lose that category to anyone who went in on it harder than you.

Inspector_666 posted:Yeah, generally I would waver but that's an upside bet for a position where you can almost always find production (OF) for a Proven Closer™. Yes you can probably find a guy who is going to end up as a proven closer but the odds are probably better this way. Not that it changes your statement any, but Sano is 3B/OF, not OF

Moneyball posted:Anyone care to rearrange the ranking of these teams in terms of good streaming options? Minnesota hasn't really been a good team to stream against for a couple years now. They're middle of the pack in scoring but top ten in OBP and bottom ten K's this year. Plus they take a lot of pitches in general so your streaming pitcher is probably not getting any deeper than the sixth inning at best.

In hindsight, Miggy Cabs getting hurt may have been a blessing in disguise because it got me to pick up Jedd "eligible for the entire infield" Gyrko to fill in while he was out.

It started with Bryant, for good reason, but then the hype train went into another gear for Schwarber, Russell, Baez and Contreras. Happ is the next man up and I'm sure Jimenez will be viewed as the next best thing to Moncada soon. I could technically put together a waiver-less OF of Trout, Stanton, and Sano so I'm not impressed
