I think I built a hell of a team here:

C - Wilson Contreras
1B - Travis Shaw
2B - Ozzie Albies
3B - Manny Machado
SS - Jose Peraza
OF - Mike Trout
OF - Juan Soto
OF - George Springer
Util - David Dahl
Util - Eloy Jimenez
BN - Pete Alonso

SP - Zach Greinke
SP - German Marquez
RP - Mychal Givens
RP - Hunter Strickland
P - Tyler Glasnow
P - Joey Luchessi
P - Tyler Skaggs
P - Brandon Woodruff
BN - Yusei Kikuchi
BN - Brandon Morrow
BN - Shane Greene

I'm punting saves and most of my pitching is bad or sleepers, but holy hell that lineup. I'm going to win every category every week.

Yeah but the problem is setup men will also disappoint you when some random bullpen guy somehow gets all the save opportunities and runs away with the job, only to disappoint the next person who foolishly drafts him the year after, thus beginning the cycle anew.

You should never veto for trade rape you should veto for collusion. Ripping someone off isn't a vetoable reason and he should be mad.

Even healthy you want Muncy and Marquez over those two. Murphy isn't going to hit for any stat besides average. Coles good but Marquez is good too and might produce a lot outside of Coors.

There's something wrong with the system when I hit non stop dingers but lose every category because dumb people out there think there's more stats in baseballs than mollywhops

Yeah talk about Greene giving me 10 saves after going undrafted in my league where people were snapping up closers in the 4th round.

Also side note it feels like there's a bunch of hitters out there sapping the powers of legitimate, consistent hitters. Too many random people hitting above .350 and too many hitting below .200.

I quit him this year after having him for the past five. Last year he was just so slump-prone and it seemed like a trend to me.

Chris Davis has been outperforming him lately. Dropping Rizzo for Chris Davis and it actually working is about the funniest thing I can think of.

Yeah I have no idea how he produces stats each year when it seems like he's in a perpetual slump

I’ve never owned Rizzo but that year he was second base elg was pretty funny.

The downside of that year is he didn't get second base eligibility til like halfway through the fantasy playoffs, at least in Yahoo. I remember checking that poo poo every day and it just never happening.

My technique is I send a bunch of fair offers that people automatically reject because no one ever wants to trade unless they're loving over someone huge.

Also for some reason people love relief pitchers more than anything else. It's like tossing an SoJ into the trade offer.

I guess? I mean, before the second half swoon he had two and a half years of good-to-fantastic production, and his walk rate was way up. Everyone saying he sold out for power doesn't make much sense either, since he hit most of his homers before the slump. Hindsight is 20/20 but everywhere I saw had him ranked only behind Trout and Betts.

He turded out in August and September then went hitless in the playoffs too. I don't know where you were looking but Trout, Betts, Yelich, Trea, and Baez looked like the top 5 on most sites I was checking out with Jose falling out of the first.

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.
