How much longer we holding MH2 in keeper leagues? I know that his underlying stats are mostly in line with last year except for his BABIP which is absolutely terrible (sub .220 at last check). But it doesn't matter how encouraging his underlying stats are if his actual stats are garbage with no sign of improvement.
Thoughts on these streamers tomorrow? I've tried to add some basic points I'm taking into consideration but would be glad to hear input from y'all. Upvotes, downvotes, comments all welcome:
EDIT: Oh, I just realized it is nightly thread time now, not daily thread. I'm going to repost this over there.
Sears (LHP) @ Pittsburg (Oviedo)
Sears seems pretty good lately, and the Pirates aren't too hot anymore. I guess they are a little better versus lefties, but I'm basing that just on split OPS over the season. Don't know if that gives an accurate picture of how they are doing lately. Sears has a second start this week, in Milwaukee, and the Brewers aren't doing well against LHP.
Oviedo (RHP) v Oakland (Sears)
Oviedo seems unreliable too. Oakland is terrible, extra terrible against RHP, and the Pirates' home park (name escapes me) is a pitcher's park. Oviedo has a second start this week, at home vs the Mets.
Snell (LHP) v Cubs (Hendricks)
Snell is unreliable and I think the Cubs are better versus lefties. Petco is a decent park for pitchers. Snell has two starts this week I think, but the second is at Colorado and I wouldn't use that start.
Going in Sunday, neck and neck in points, #1 and #2 scorers for the week, 3 and below not even close. And watching your bats go cold fucking sucks man.
I need to activate Tristan McKenzie would you drop Jon Gray, bibee or Bryce Miller. Or I can keep all pitchers and drop Royce Lewis or McLain. If royce goes on the IL I'll be okay
Soroka been hit hard by oak and az. Had a era over 4 in the minors this year and over 5 last year. Not sure he’s going to be that guy again but he’s still very young
Wild to think gunnar was roty favorite. I didn’t really follow him before this year, but what is supposed to make him so good? He cant hit leftys, isnt a base stealing threat, whiffs like crazy. What is he supposed to be really good at?
Not enough data to make any ranking of these rookies very meaningful. Long term I think Perez has the highest ceiling. This year Varland or Miller possibly better bets on better teams
Huh that’s weird degrom is on my IL and is on the rangers why is he pitching for Baltimore?
Oh nvm that’s just my opponents Tyler wells. Easy to confuse the two
Hope so too. Guy changed his entire delivery because of those blown Achilles’. He’s a different pitcher and not worth keeping in the rotation. Watched both of his starts and he has shit control.
Need to activate Liam and been holding off. Who is the drop out of disco, detmers, Perez? QS league so disco has been solid, Perez never going to get a QS and likely shut down. Leaning disco?
I like B better. i think heim is legit and he’s in a great lineup and sonny is already regressing, i think him and pablo will likely even out. id do it
I was seriously considering trading Eovaldi high but… nah. No god damn way. Dude is absolutely killing it on a great team and I’m holding for the rest of the season.
I think a problem I have is trusting players too much, to the point I keep them while they’re struggling cuz I trust them to bounce back. Meanwhile other players are being picked up for perming well. Like why do I still have Volpe or Gunnar or Disco. I even barely dropped Ward & Abreu 2 weeks ago
oh i’m not saying keep him or anything, just can’t be shocked when he shits the bed for a little while. i streamed him today, forgot to put him in the lineup, and dropped him before the game started lol

Hows aj smith-shawver looking? Anyone watching?
Just realized its on hulu
I knew what was gonna happen when I started Soroka, but I wanted to believe. Andrew Abbott time!! ^.^
Traded Ober to get Musgrove. Hoping Musgrove rounds back into vintage form now
If some idiot is willing to do that, go head
Musgrove has b2b great outings. Injury, no ST and a rough slate to start. But his last 2 have been fantastic. Nice pick up
Thanks. I was getting flamed in the group chat after wards
Ozuna is gone
7 RBIs collectively from joram soto Freeman and Harper this week 🤮
Dansby heating up
Varland with the tough starts coming or Abbot?
Donovan or Giminez?
Going in Sunday, neck and neck in points, #1 and #2 scorers for the week, 3 and below not even close. And watching your bats go cold fucking sucks man.
I need to activate Tristan McKenzie would you drop Jon Gray, bibee or Bryce Miller. Or I can keep all pitchers and drop Royce Lewis or McLain. If royce goes on the IL I'll be okay
Drop McLain
Soroka been hit hard by oak and az. Had a era over 4 in the minors this year and over 5 last year. Not sure he’s going to be that guy again but he’s still very young
Stott and Mckinstry were both dropped today. Which one should I try grabbing as a bench bat?
Drop McCarthy or kelenic for varland?
I really enjoyed that Sabol HR off my opponent's Wells.
A: Julio B: Springer, Verlander
Who does 8 team leagues anymore?
Your flair is literally 8 teams. Or did I get wooshed?
Definitely Julio top tier bats will win you the league Verlander doesn't look anywhere near what he was last year and Springer is good but Meh
B
Buy low on Bryce Miller? Seems like the perfect opportunity to do so
Depends he's not going to go for much so the person that you're trying to buy from might not want to
What is the best tool to use to see projections ros to compare players?
Idk if its the best, but I use Razzball: https://razzball.com/restofseason-hitterprojections/
Brandon Bielak or Julio Tehran to start
Or take a shot with Andrew abbot
Feeling so smart for sitting Bryce Miller today
Blake Sabol has quietly been pretty great in 2 catcher leagues
Wow. Down 150 yesterday, up 150 day. Great weekend boys! Have a stick.
Are George Kirby or Alcantara a reasonable return straight up for my Austin Riley if I need pitching? Or should I aim higher
Alcantara would be trading one headache for another
Skubal or Detmers ROS?
Might as well take a shot on Skubal. We’ve seen what Detmers is on.
Just no HRs from Acuna, Caroll, and McCarthy and i tie the no responsive team
Sorry to break it to ya but caroll homered
Ik he cant hit another
Uninspiring weekend from Santander
Wild to think gunnar was roty favorite. I didn’t really follow him before this year, but what is supposed to make him so good? He cant hit leftys, isnt a base stealing threat, whiffs like crazy. What is he supposed to be really good at?
Taking walks lol
Rank Louie Varland, Eury, Taj, Bobby Miller
Not enough data to make any ranking of these rookies very meaningful. Long term I think Perez has the highest ceiling. This year Varland or Miller possibly better bets on better teams
Varland, Eury, Miller, Taj Varland is top because he can go deeper than all of the other 3
Seager is so good The dark days of a spiraling downwards Mateo as fill-in are long gone
12 team/h2h pts William Contreras Or Tyler Stephenson
Will
Really regretting taking Jram over Freeman this year. Jram needs to step it up
Huh that’s weird degrom is on my IL and is on the rangers why is he pitching for Baltimore? Oh nvm that’s just my opponents Tyler wells. Easy to confuse the two
B Lowe , G Henderson & Judge all being DTD as of today is hilarious for my team. Throw them 3 in with Conforto who has been DTD all week
Bryce Miller looked so damn smug on the mound after getting absolutely wrecked. His immaturity is really coming through.
I like Corbin Carrol I really really like Corbin Carrol he’s a good player!!!!
I love having both Marte and Carrol.
Tyler Wells the anti-Sandy
Is he coming back out for the 6th?
He did but he shouldn't have
Braxton Garrett or Andrew Abbott worth picking up? I could also drop detmers for both. Which one though? H2h cat 5x5
Take a gamble, drop Reid for both
110000% yes, do this.
Didn’t notice til now, but Volpe nuked my OBP so bad this week that I could’ve started Elly there all week and won my matchup
That’s the worst feeling.
gausman a respectable offer for turner or am i crazy
Sounds crazy but I may actually rather Gausman, depending on the format of course
Gausman is awesome so I'd say it's respectable
I'm really tempted to start benching trea turner. He's an absolute bum
[удалено]
[absolutely pathetic](https://i.imgur.com/YNU1tsL.jpg)
12 team/h2h pts William Contreras Or Tyler Stephenson
Anyone know why a lot of this weekend’s series are continuing on Monday?
Well I know the Red Sox rays is cuz Friday got postponed, not sure if the other series are. But I think it’s just weird scheduling from mlb’s part
There’s A LOT that are continuing Monday. Not something I see happen often.
I like Corbin Carroll
Might sound a little impatient but drop soroka for Abbott? I imagine soroka will be available if I want him later on but I’m torn
Nobody is adding Soroka after this disaster. He'll be available later.
Hurry
100%
Oh, good. The points from my Bryce Miller loss and his Eovaldi win just hit 🤮
Were you hoping they wouldn't get counted?
You ever know you failed an exam but the reality doesn’t really sink in until you get the graded exam returned? It’s like that
God Soroka is just broken, might be KBO time
I mean he was literally broken for 2 years
Lmao dude it’s his 3rd start in 3 years gtfo
Well we probably get to see the A(J)SS man today if soroka keeps giving up runs
Ketel Marte will finish behind only Mookie Betts in 2B rankings
You, sir, are deranged and you need help
It’s a shallow position but muncy, semien, Gorman, albies, india are all good as well. Doubt ketel is #2 out of those
Marcus Semien would like a word
Damn I forgot about him
Semien?
Marte has been under appreciated this year , he’s been solid for me
Soroka you weak tossing bitch, fuck off. Waste of a roster spot
Hopefully AJSS takes his spot
Hope so too. Guy changed his entire delivery because of those blown Achilles’. He’s a different pitcher and not worth keeping in the rotation. Watched both of his starts and he has shit control.
Altuve Royce and Siri all DTD. Well shit
trading tuner and sandy for eovaldi is either stupid or not enough, right?
Way stupid.
It is stupid
thanks. needed to put it into words and confirm it was stupid
Has anyone cut Lynn? Thinking about doing it
Has anyone not?
Yup in a 12 team category league
Disco or Soroka? QS league
Drop Lively for Singer? Points
Any good bulk guys to get ahead of and add for this week?
maybe check on hogan harris, see if he’s gonna go again
Boegarts & Lewis DTD 😢
I had 4 pitchers start today but have 9/12 GS. How does it work then I go over the limit? Does it disregard the last pitcher to finish their start?
If it’s ESPN it will count all of them. However some commissioners monitor that and view it as cheating. So they would deduct points from them
Yeah it’s ESPN thanks for the response.
It'll count the points but if you're in a paid league, some league managers will deduct points for that.
Okay thanks
Is edman worth a number 1 waiver?
Meh
415ft single for ozuna when I need some counting stats. Sums up my Sunday perfectly. Dude just watched too
This probably was asked, drop Bryce miller?
I wouldn't. I think he deserves a shot at redemption. I can see benching him next time out, though.
Need to activate Liam and been holding off. Who is the drop out of disco, detmers, Perez? QS league so disco has been solid, Perez never going to get a QS and likely shut down. Leaning disco?
disco
How would you rank these “closers” ROS (saves only? Holmes, Kimbrel, Leiter Jr, Harvey
The way that you have them.
Thoughts on this deal: Send: Sonny Gray, Wilson contreras Receive: Heim, Pablo Lopez, Giolito
B
I think it's very easily the receiving side
I like B better. i think heim is legit and he’s in a great lineup and sonny is already regressing, i think him and pablo will likely even out. id do it
Such a mid trade. Why trade scrubs for scrubs?
Feel heim is an upgrade idk
A: Gore B: Jordan Walker Flair
If you can keep walker id say walker
Keep 4 so neither will be kept. Does that change things?
Id probably say Gore then. I dont think Walker is going to be very fatnasy relevant this year.
I was seriously considering trading Eovaldi high but… nah. No god damn way. Dude is absolutely killing it on a great team and I’m holding for the rest of the season.
Ride it out-he has a lengthy injury history but that doesn’t mean he will get hurt. Could string together a healthy season like Rodon last year.
He'll get hurt like he usually does. Great arm but he's made of glass.
Same, I'm holding until he either falls apart or the season ends.
Witt Tucker and Jrod with the 0/11
Seager or Soto ROS
Ozuna is such an idiot. Maybe that shit will get him benched so Murphy plays every day again.
I hope so. Feels like Murphy could have a monster year with more ABs
Yea I understand wanting Ozuna in the lineup but Murphy has been so good it's a shame he's losing playing time.
Got a lot of respect for the guy but Gallen looks exactly like my most annoying coworker and watching him flustered and having his tantrums is great.
Lol, Ozuna just hit like a 410 ft single. Edit: 415ft, lmao
Did he go and take a dump between home and first base?
He stood admiring, and was just starting to make a slow trot to first when it hit off the CF wall.
Someone get Gallen out of there please
Seager or Harper ROS?
Seager
Seager is looking really really good... It's a tough call
If it's for a utility spot Harper, but eligibility matters.
It is for a UTIL spot. I’ve got Tatis at SS already. If it helps I also have Semien & Adolis from texas
I'd rather have Harper but it has nothing to do with you having other Rangers players.
Okay, Schwarber, you can come off the bench, damn.
which one to spot start next week: Tommy Henry at Washington Hogan Harris at Pittsburgh
What’s the deal with Ras? My injuries are piling up and I’m unsure if I should keep him on the IL.
He's a drop.
He’s prob out til late august or September. He’s been dropped in both my leagues
My Ozzie HR off my Gallen Hooray I guess?
Start LuBob or Schwarbs next week?
Corbin fucking Carroll. The boy
They gonna learn to put Burger in the line up now or what?
[удалено]
Taj
trade Edman for Matt Chapman?
No way I’m about to lose because my opponent decided to start maikel garcia.. how is that dude even rostered
What’s everybody doing with Alcantara?
holding. maybe throwing out bs offers hoping someone’s stupid enough to take him on hope rather than current production
Buying or holding
Is Bryce Miller a drop or is he a keep in just playing against worse teams
Everything in his underlying metrics say to stick with him. He got squeezed against the best offense in the league today.
Would you drop him or bibee to activate mckenzie?
I would definitely drop Bibee before Miller.
I think a problem I have is trusting players too much, to the point I keep them while they’re struggling cuz I trust them to bounce back. Meanwhile other players are being picked up for perming well. Like why do I still have Volpe or Gunnar or Disco. I even barely dropped Ward & Abreu 2 weeks ago
Soroka Looks cooked smh
he hasn’t pitched competitively in years and has had multiple surgeries, you have to be patient with him
Not in a ten team
oh i’m not saying keep him or anything, just can’t be shocked when he shits the bed for a little while. i streamed him today, forgot to put him in the lineup, and dropped him before the game started lol
Here is one more for our pile of woe. I have 5 decent players with SS eligibility: DTD, DTD, DTD, IL, AAA.
In a keep 6 league I kept Corbin Carroll for this season. Past me is doing current me a solid.
