The Sunday night game is going to start at 7 instead of 8 now. That makes a big difference for H2H.

If you were in the fire and forget league last year I reupped it so please tell me in post in the league home if you want to play again or want out so I can refill it and set a draft time.

I am out, I'm still burnt out on fantasy from last year so I'm just doing 1 league and nothing else this year probably.

He's #11 on Yahoo. He'd probably be the first player taken if you don't keep him.

I'm going to end up keeping Buxton again because I'm a big dumb idiot and then also cut bait with Sano and then Sano is going to end up actually being good again and Buxton will continue to do nothing.

Just draft Buxton. He goes for like $2? Him, Sano and the Twins are all going to suck though, sorry.

Jay Bruce could be a good cheap pickup. He hit 33 HR in 2016, 36 in 2017, then he played hurt for the first half of last year so he was lovely. But he went on the DL for 2 months and when he came back he hit 6 home runs in the last 5 weeks. He's also a lefty so he's a good platoon guy. And he has a 1.252 OPS in spring.

I came in 2nd in both my leagues last year and hadn't heard of Juan Soto until a few weeks ago.

I have no idea how this happens.

You're probably like me and just forgetting poo poo. I had to look up Trevor RIchards after he had a good game last week because I didn't know anything about him. Later I saw I had him on my roster last year.

I would hold onto the guy who was on pace for 30/60 last year. Santana is very low ceiling. You can probably get his production off waivers.

The Astros are super deep in pitching. They have Josh James and Framber Valdez as their #6 and #7 sp. No way he comes up soon.

Astudillo is hitting 3rd tonight and starting at first base. They're surely going to keep starting him since he's one of their best hitters.

Autodraft is only really bad when there's 1 or 2 teams not playing and they get stuck with all the unwanted players. If everyone autodrafted most teams would be fine, there wouldn't be a mess to fix. And the draft is the most fun part of fantasy.

I'm probably dropping Miggy soon since a) even when he was hitting homers the last few years he was only on pace for like 25. b) his sprint speed is sub Bartolo Colon slow so he's not going to be getting a lot of runs. and c)the Tigers offense sucks. So he has limited upside.

And Matt Olson is one of the best platoon guys out there. Just bench him against lefties.

i don't think I've ever had a trade accepted after 24 hours. If it goes longer than that they either cancel it or just let it sit there forever. So I just cancel them after 24 hours now.

Kimbrel been dropped in any of y'alls redraft leagues?
He is 77% owned on Yahoo. He should sign after the draft which is June 5th. So it's almost the point where you should be picking him up if he was available.

He's been slumping actually and has a .814 OPS for the year. He has always been a streaky player. He'll probably get on a hot streak sometime soon, then you should trade him.

It's definitely a good trade. I'm just saying if he heats up it's a good idea to sell high because he won't keep it up. Don't be like that guy where you're going to want to dump him for Eric Hosmer when he starts slumping again.

Every year there's pitchers who all the writers/bloggers say are going to be good, even though they've always been mediocre or bad, and they end up being bad. Guys like Jon Gray, Jeff Samardzija, Jason Hammel, This year it's Tyler Skaggs.
