I recently bought this https://www.amazon.com/Ron-Shandlers-2023-Baseball-Forecaster/dp/1637271867/ and it's basically Fangraphs in book form, but I'm enjoying flipping through it. Every year I say I'm gonna do a bunch of prep, and it never happens. Maybe this is the year I put together some position lists and post em here for discussion... Who are some players you are targetting this year? Hunter Greene is gonna be on every one of my teams.

ROCK THE HOUSE M.D. posted:I was bored last night, so I went ahead and set up a $20 Yahoo league with payments hosted on leaguesafe.com. My goon buddy DGladding and I will be co-commishing. I'd like to join this league plz Just found out that I can't join Yahoo Prize leagues because the state I moved to has some bullshit anti-gambling laws, so this is perfect.

Keeper question! 6x6 league with BBs and Holds. Short benches, which makes ace SPs more valuable. Keep 3: Aaron Judge Ronald Acuña Spencer Strider ------------------------- Clayton Kershaw Zack Wheeler Am I nuts for keeping Strider over two much more established pitchers? Anyone fading Acuña enough to drop him below one of those SPs?

Kilometers Davis posted:Anyone have a simple free standard yahoo league with an opening? I’m tempted to try fantasy baseball for the first time. Hopefully I’m too late and can avoid catching this sickness. You should try a Prize League IMO. They start at $5 and it's more fun with a little money at stake because people take it seriously. 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.

Might as well post my drafts. Since I can't play Yahoo cash leagues where I live, I ended up with 3 teams on 3 different platforms, which should be fun #1. General BS's goon league. ESPN, 10 teams, 6x6 with BBs and Holds, keep 3 As usual, I went heavy on SPs in this league, although Verlander (old) and Shane McC (strikeouts way down in the 2nd half) weren't who I was targeting. Picked up Rendon so I'd have a 3B in case Walker didn't make the OD roster. He's my first drop, although he had a good spring. I might've overpayed for Tommy Edman. He'd better steal plenty of bags to justify his ADP. This team is OK, but I don't love it #2. House MD's keeper startup. Yahoo, 12 teamer, heavy on the ratios (R, HR, RBI, SB, AVG, OBP, SLG, and K, QS, ERA, WHIP, K/BB, K/9, S+H) I got Judge at 1.1 and Scherzer/Alcantara at the 2/3 turn. This league emphasizes ratios over counting stats, so my strategy was to draft aces early and fill in with hitters who might not rack up the SBs and Runs, but will have a good triple slash; guys like Belt, Yandy, Correa, McNeil, etc. Closers went super late with saves+holds being just one of 14 categories. Really happy with this team. And I just finished a 5x5 Roto at Fantrax. First time using that site and I like it. With 12 teams and 30-man rosters, the draft took 2 hours. Their standard leagues have no IL slots, but huge benches. Snagged a bunch of guys who I missed on in my other leagues, like Casas, Springs, and Corbin Carroll.

Manoah just isn't the same guy anymore. Hard to believe but it might be time to drop.

Dustin May and Drew Rasmussen might be back this year if they avoid surgery? A's rookie Mason Miller is throwing again. Some of them are probably stashed already. Buehler (TJS last year) might be back in September? Daniel Hudson could be in the mix for saves in LA in a month or so.

Marlins beat writer thinks Eury Perez may be back next week. Could be in a bullpen role though.quote:Eury Perez is on track to return to the Marlins at some point next week. Marlins GM Kim Ng told reporters she was monitoring his progress, but from what we hear, that progress is leading to a quick return to the big leagues. It seems possible Perez will pitch against the New York Yankees next weekend at loanDepot park. from here: https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/mlb/miami-marlins/article277008218.html
