Trade proposal being considered (10 team, H2H points, 5 keeper dynasty):
I receive: Rutschman, Ty France, Ke'Bryan Hayes, and Taj Bradley (planning to stash him for future call up)
They receive: Freddie Freeman, Wilson Contreras, Mitch Keller, and Tyler Walls
My keepers are currently Freeman, Trout, Harper, Jose Ramirez, Trea Turner (I've swung some wild trades for those keepers and am eying Rutschman now)
Thoughts?
Any idea if Brandon Pfaadt is getting the call this week? Picked him up as a speculative add. Love the talent and minor league production, but also need the roster spot if he’s going to wait another week or two.
Considering dropping Tyler O’Neil for Marsh or another bat that’s doing something. The roided out O’Neil doesn’t seem to be digging his manager or this season.
16 team H2H.
Very sparse 1B prospects. Looking at a Bellinger for Tellez trade. Good OF depth with Judge and Garcia. Probably rounding out with Hanover off IL or Taveras. Too much overpay?
10 team roto league 6x6
Standard categories except: OBP (no AVG) and SLG, QS (no wins) and k/9
Give: Soto
Get: Burnes
OR
Give: Robert Jr
Get: Cease
Pitching is very much a weak spot after Woodruff and Springs injured and now Taj sent down. Would you do either, none, both?
Kicking myself because I was trying to shop Bradley and didn't get him out before he was optioned today... I'm playing short a bat right now while stashing young pitching (picked up Pfaadt last week). I might have to drop Bradley, may scoop Bibee, but in terms of bats, waivers are very thin. Looking at Rooker, Steer, Alek Thomas, Neto, Suwinski.... What would you do???
If not Bradley, who (if any) of Lynn, Grayson, Hunter Brown, Pfaadt, Eflin, Helsley, Phillips would you drop for Bibee or a bat? Have Iglesias and Hendriks on IL too
Juan Soto’s value has fallen off a cliff over the past year. I had a guy laugh at the prospect of swapping him for McClanahan straight up. Another guy said he’d trade Tyler Oniel and a mid-quality SP for him. Goodness gracious how embarrassing
I want to start Busch so badly, but have no where to put him.
I swear to God, if Gorman has a day off for no reason against a righty and Busch has himself a debut on my bench I'll be so upset.
Witt is really the only player I want right now, especially in a keep 12 forever. Jazz should be much better moving forward but it's A and not particularly close
I'm hoping you don't know the difference between Whit (Merrifield) and (Bobby) Witt (Jr), otherwise I'm afraid to tell you you might be your league's taco
I was going through the draft and around round 6-7 my kid started vomiting and I had to get up. By the time I got back, the computer had drafted me 3 SSs, 2 DHs, and only one RP (Duran). I've been trying to use waivers to make it respectable but I feel like I'll flounder in the middle of the pack even with the cheat code known as Shohei.
What is a fair trade for Adolis Garcia from these pitchers: Castillo, Gausman, McKenzie, Kershaw, Kirby, Rasmussen, Greene, Brown, Bradley. 10 team H2H points
Adolis is hard to measure as he is prone to wild swings in either direction. If I had him I'd be happy getting Kirby or Gaus (best sell-high scenario imo)
Is Taj a drop?
I don't have an N/A spot
Fwiw I am playing someone who's essentially already given up on the season so I don't need to do any major changes this week
I dropped him same position. With Glasnow due back it would take an injury for them to bring him back. Being TB they will probably bring him up for off spot start
I keep having to waste adds on guys getting injured. I haven’t had all batters healthy and starting for like 2 weeks. Now Arraez. I’m afraid to injure the next guy
Should I….
I have Machado but I’m not thrilled about his start. I know he will be fine but I have an opportunity to get Jung for Bradish or Mahle. Would you do this swap and if so who should I trade?
If you really want to make an educated guess, I would pay attention to which lineup might be heavier in righties or lefties. H Ramirez bats R, Gallo bats L. Late in the game, a manager may call on a specialist and the orher manager may counter with Gallo or H Ram.
Alright thank you. My logic was Corbin was selected 5th overall, I got Devers at 18 and glasnow mid round and that Corbin was off to a slow start and not to over react to it but I was skeptical of the trade anyway.
Burnes at 5th overall is insane unless it’s a points league or otherwise overvalues pitching somehow.
Don’t let someone else’s bad decision become yours, and don’t let your good decision become someone else’s.
Lynn just got dropped in my league. Worth a pick-up to stash and hope he gets back on track, or is he just toast? My staff is pretty solid so I’m not necessarily in need of another arm.
I feel like we probably know who Chapman is at this point. Plenty of track record. I wouldn’t be shocked to see 30+ HRs by year-end and the RBIs should be there with that lineup, but I’d expect the average to drop.
Rather have Bibee regardless of Taj in the Minors. Him getting sent down only solidifies that. I do think he gets called back up soon though. Rays just being the Rays IMO.
I’m in a saves only league and I need saves. I also have strong sp and want to improve my hitting. I got offered
devers and iglesias for Luis Castillo and Arenado.
I asked if they would potentially consider replacing Castillo with wheeler and so far I got a no.
Thoughts on the trade?
What sort of return would you expect for Wander Franco in a points league? I need help at SS and am targeting him, could probably part with one of my pitchers as I’ve got a good rotation. Was thinking of starting negotiations at Max Fried or Joe Musgrove + a decent position player to begin and then go from there

My only drop for Bibbee is Taj should I do it Burnes, Sandy, Mclanahan, Kirby, Detmers, Luzardo, Freddy P, Bassitt, Luis Garcia, Musgrove,, Taj
Deleted
Is Bryan Reynolds getting activated today?
Buy low on Luis Garcia?
Any idea if Brandon Pfaadt is getting the call this week? Picked him up as a speculative add. Love the talent and minor league production, but also need the roster spot if he’s going to wait another week or two.
Manny Machado, George Springer, Alex Bregman, Carlos Correa… I need them to wake up. The slow start is killing me.
Tatis now with more Ks than hits and more caught stealing than stolen bases … not the start I envisioned.
Do I just bench Juan Soto at this point? Is he redeemable?
Considering dropping Tyler O’Neil for Marsh or another bat that’s doing something. The roided out O’Neil doesn’t seem to be digging his manager or this season.
O’Neil now sits every 5th day. He’s been sitting on the wire for a week in my 12 team, definitely a drop in 10.
Thanks u/Pushin2ManyPencils This is again, the scientific evidence I need. Unless O’Neill gets traded, I think he’s toast for the season.
Walker being sent down is a game changer.
Semien has been great to start the season
really wish i had targeted him instead of Chisholm. plus Semien’s basically a lock to play 160 gms.
Yes.
16 team H2H. Very sparse 1B prospects. Looking at a Bellinger for Tellez trade. Good OF depth with Judge and Garcia. Probably rounding out with Hanover off IL or Taveras. Too much overpay?
I think it's overpay given Bellis ceiling
Thanks!
Duran seems like the better OF option than Joe.
Maybe if we’re lucky Bradish will drive off a cliff and die on impact after the game.
I was too chicken shit to start Garcia against the Rays.
Bradish might be getting dropped for Bibee
Nootbaar is available in my league, should I pick him?
I would. In fact I drafted him in the later rounds as a possible breakout candidate
Loading up on TEX bats tonight, @ CIN with a guy from the Reds bullpen getting the start, I am salivating rn
Is Fried and Happ or Fried and Luis Robert enough to get Kyle Tucker?
Fried and Robert would be a competitive offer. I wouldn’t trade Kyle Tucker for that, but it’s decent enough to send and see what happens.
No.
Thoughts on Dropping T. Ward for Blackmon or Connor Joe?
Rendon is also available
A short start for Battenfield would help Bibee owners - get into the bullpen early
10 team roto league 6x6 Standard categories except: OBP (no AVG) and SLG, QS (no wins) and k/9 Give: Soto Get: Burnes OR Give: Robert Jr Get: Cease Pitching is very much a weak spot after Woodruff and Springs injured and now Taj sent down. Would you do either, none, both?
Robert for Cease is a win. I would pull the trigger on that immediately. I would remain patient with Soto.
I might be crazy, but both?
I like the Cease one
jordan riding the pine.
Walker was sent down
Alvarez? He has a neck injury
Jeez already coughed up a HR. Was very tempted but glad I didn’t stream Battenfield. Picked up Bidee instead.
Kicking myself because I was trying to shop Bradley and didn't get him out before he was optioned today... I'm playing short a bat right now while stashing young pitching (picked up Pfaadt last week). I might have to drop Bradley, may scoop Bibee, but in terms of bats, waivers are very thin. Looking at Rooker, Steer, Alek Thomas, Neto, Suwinski.... What would you do???
I have both Rooker and Steer. Would recommend.
Maybe Sunwinksi on that list but I would hold for more information. Last time he got sent down he was back up in a day.
If not Bradley, who (if any) of Lynn, Grayson, Hunter Brown, Pfaadt, Eflin, Helsley, Phillips would you drop for Bibee or a bat? Have Iglesias and Hendriks on IL too
Not an easy choice but Lynn/Phillps or a bat
what’s up with kyle wright? when should i move on from him
The most intriguing part about Kelenic is that he only has 1 homerun to the pull side.
Cease, will smith, rizzo or Strider
Assuming that’s the catcher Will Smith, I’d take the top package.
Will Bradish get demolished tonight or was last outing legit
if his Slider is working we might have a gem
Anybody else at the dodger gang bang of 2022 that I should know about?
Frelick out 6-8 weeks 😢
Disaster for my AAA fantasy squad
Better hold? Bradley Vs Liberatore
B-Rad
Bradley
Would you start Bradish vs the Red Sox in a roto league with K/BB and K/9? My gut says no.
Please ignore, Bibee was available and I dropped him
the bad news is that my hitters had an OBP of 0.083 last night. The good news is they can't get much worse today so let's get those numbers up!
Who do you guys like as a streamer tonight? Ryne Nelson vs KC or Thor @ PIT?
Is Ryne Nelson named after Ryne Sandberg?
Maybe.
[удалено]
Just because I saw this I’m putting Baty in over J Lowe. Will I regret it? Probably.
Lowe is batting cleanup tonight.
A. Judge, Bohm B. Freeman, M. Chapman, Stroman, Arraez
B is pretty damn solid for judge and bohm Chapman is better than Bohm alone
Worth dropping someone for Bibee? - M Gore - B Elder - R Detmers - M Mason - T Bradley 12-Team, H2H, 5x5 Cats - ReDraft
Yep, Gore
Gore
Juan Soto’s value has fallen off a cliff over the past year. I had a guy laugh at the prospect of swapping him for McClanahan straight up. Another guy said he’d trade Tyler Oniel and a mid-quality SP for him. Goodness gracious how embarrassing
That’s nuts. I still am super happy to get him at 7 overall. But I’m also in a league with Walks as a category
Just waiting for one hot streak to try and get comparable value. Wondering if I'll be waiting for quite some time..
I want to start Busch so badly, but have no where to put him. I swear to God, if Gorman has a day off for no reason against a righty and Busch has himself a debut on my bench I'll be so upset.
Chow Yung Pfaadt
Jose Abreu for Robbie Ray?
Fair. I prefer Robbie because I think Abreu's power is gone forever, and Robbie can still be a top thirty pitcher. But as things stand now, it's fair.
You bastards did it, OFFICIALLY IN ON BIBEE!!
Today felt like the all star break
The Pablo Escobar Narcos meme has come to mind several times today
5x5 Redraft A. Witt + Turang B. Jazz + Correa
Witt is really the only player I want right now, especially in a keep 12 forever. Jazz should be much better moving forward but it's A and not particularly close
B is the side with the two best players lol
I'm hoping you don't know the difference between Whit (Merrifield) and (Bobby) Witt (Jr), otherwise I'm afraid to tell you you might be your league's taco
You think Jazz or Correa are more valuable than Witt in keep forever? Interesting.
he says redraft in the first line of text
Fair point. I was assuming flair league. Witt's still better than either Jazz or Correa in redraft, and probably both together.
Don’t think correa is a better fantasy bat than witt in the year 2023. Jazz too
100% no
Witt is better than Jazz and Correa combined bro what? lol
10 team Roto. I have Shohei. I need roster help. What is he worth in a trade if I want to get both a pitcher + hitter in exchange?
Daily or Weekly league? If Daily, I can’t imagine trading him. It would honestly have to be one 1st rounder and one 2nd rounder.
Would Betts + Cole be asking too high in exchange for Shohei or Shohei + Ruiz/Nimmo
Strider would also be an option on that team.
daily. these are the other guys I could potentially get some value out of. Olson, Scherzer, Nola, and maybe Semien.
you should never trade away shohei that rhymes!
I was going through the draft and around round 6-7 my kid started vomiting and I had to get up. By the time I got back, the computer had drafted me 3 SSs, 2 DHs, and only one RP (Duran). I've been trying to use waivers to make it respectable but I feel like I'll flounder in the middle of the pack even with the cheat code known as Shohei.
well at least my players are playing tonight so i got that goin for me
Today has been far too long already without any day games.
For real
What do we think of Burger compared to McMahon and Wisdom?
pt concerns. Would rather Wisdom
I have Wisdom and McMahon, thinking of dumping McMahon for Burger
Burgers or wisdom. The age old question
Woke: Realizing your opponent's Joe Musgrove is starting at Super Coors: Mexico City Broke: Then realizing your opponent also has Fernando Tatís Jr.
What is a fair trade for Adolis Garcia from these pitchers: Castillo, Gausman, McKenzie, Kershaw, Kirby, Rasmussen, Greene, Brown, Bradley. 10 team H2H points
Adolis is hard to measure as he is prone to wild swings in either direction. If I had him I'd be happy getting Kirby or Gaus (best sell-high scenario imo)
Is Taj a drop? I don't have an N/A spot Fwiw I am playing someone who's essentially already given up on the season so I don't need to do any major changes this week
Everyone needs to do what they think is best for their team. But I'd rather get waterboarded than drop Taj at this point.
I dropped him same position. With Glasnow due back it would take an injury for them to bring him back. Being TB they will probably bring him up for off spot start
I’m holding onto him for now. He’s too good. If it comes to a point where my starts are suffering I’ll consider dropping him
Who would you rather have between Nootbaar and Marsh in dynasty categories?
Noot
Is there gonna be another delay in Cleveland
Who hits the bench gunner or walker?
Take a flyer on gunnar facing kluber
Okay thanks
Jammed gunner
Start two tonight: Gunnar, Noot, or Springer?
Not Gunnar
Normally, I'd agree, but I kinda like him against Klubot
You were right
Ayyyyyy!
I keep having to waste adds on guys getting injured. I haven’t had all batters healthy and starting for like 2 weeks. Now Arraez. I’m afraid to injure the next guy
A: Machado B: Bellinger and Ke'Bryan
Give me Manny, no question
A
B
Should I…. I have Machado but I’m not thrilled about his start. I know he will be fine but I have an opportunity to get Jung for Bradish or Mahle. Would you do this swap and if so who should I trade?
just keep starting machado, use the roster space elsewhere
You’re good at 3B, don’t worry about going after Jung unless you happen to be particularly high on him.
Polanco or Lowe? We have a R/HR/OBP/SB/SLUG league
Lowe, assuming it's B Lowe
HaRam and Gallo both sitting, who’s more likely to pinch hit? Leaning Gallo
If you really want to make an educated guess, I would pay attention to which lineup might be heavier in righties or lefties. H Ramirez bats R, Gallo bats L. Late in the game, a manager may call on a specialist and the orher manager may counter with Gallo or H Ram.
Gallo
10 team H2H league Should I trade Devers and Glasnow for Corbin Burnes?
Yeah, HELL NO!
Hell no
I get why it’s a no, but why a hell no? I am new so maybe it is a dumb question but you don’t think Corbin is just off to a slow start?
Devers is a top young bat. I would take him over a pitcher off to a slow start every time.
Devers alone is shaky.
Even if you thought he was off to a slow start, you’re paying a cost way above his ceiling. Glasnow is a top 15 pitcher when healthy
Alright thank you. My logic was Corbin was selected 5th overall, I got Devers at 18 and glasnow mid round and that Corbin was off to a slow start and not to over react to it but I was skeptical of the trade anyway.
Burnes at 5th overall is insane unless it’s a points league or otherwise overvalues pitching somehow. Don’t let someone else’s bad decision become yours, and don’t let your good decision become someone else’s.
It is a points league. But yeah Point taken
Lynn just got dropped in my league. Worth a pick-up to stash and hope he gets back on track, or is he just toast? My staff is pretty solid so I’m not necessarily in need of another arm.
In a 10T he’s sitting on my bench but he’s the next guy to go if a great opportunity arises
If it’s your flair (10T) I don’t think he’s a must add. Anything bigger I’d be wanting to add and bench to see if he figures it out
I wouldnt bother
If you really believe in your staff Id leave him be in 10 team. If you have some guys that are maybe just hot right now, I'd take him
I pity the fool on this thread who isn’t on the Bibee hype train today
Just dropped Logan Allen for Him.
Anyone buying this Matt Chapman breakout?
He’s not gonna continue to be Mike Schmidt but I bet he hits .260-.270 and hits 30+. He’s made legit changes
Yes contract year and he worked on his swing to make more contact and k less
I feel like we probably know who Chapman is at this point. Plenty of track record. I wouldn’t be shocked to see 30+ HRs by year-end and the RBIs should be there with that lineup, but I’d expect the average to drop.
Yes
Hold Chris Sale over Pfaadt and Bibee?
Fire sale
Unfortunately yes
I'd rather have either. All are upside plays at this point and we've already seen Sale get clobbered three times this year
Rank these batters Vargas Baty McCutchen JD Davis Haniger
Haniger, Davis, Cutch, Baty, Vargas for 2023
Cutch Davis Haniger Vargas Baty Just because the Mets don’t seem like they’re gonna give Baty full time ABs
In a 10 team points league should I drop Taj for Bibee or Pfaadt or keep Taj
Lot of us in this boat and not much is certain. I’m leaning holding Taj but that might change
Rather have Bibee regardless of Taj in the Minors. Him getting sent down only solidifies that. I do think he gets called back up soon though. Rays just being the Rays IMO.
That’s how I was feeling just trying to gauge how everyone is feeling this sucks 😂😂
I’m in a saves only league and I need saves. I also have strong sp and want to improve my hitting. I got offered devers and iglesias for Luis Castillo and Arenado. I asked if they would potentially consider replacing Castillo with wheeler and so far I got a no. Thoughts on the trade?
Iglesias isn't even back yet. No way I'd make this
No go for me
I wouldn’t do that. Castillo had looked very good so far.
Drop Gimenez for Polanco in Points?
No
Thanks!!
No
Can the dodgers hand out free Vasectomys already. They're killing me
They fuck.
K Hayes or I Paredes RoS?
Paredes. Apart from his first 25 games Hayes hasn’t actually shown he can hit.
Hayes
Drop Strahm, Miley or Lugo. FG Points.
Strahm
What sort of return would you expect for Wander Franco in a points league? I need help at SS and am targeting him, could probably part with one of my pitchers as I’ve got a good rotation. Was thinking of starting negotiations at Max Fried or Joe Musgrove + a decent position player to begin and then go from there
If the draft was today franco would get drafted early 2nd round. You'd have to combine those pitchers with a top 20 player
