Where is the Yankees lineup?
Bryant dropped to 5th. I think it's ogre
[удалено]
Can someone explain how in the statcast last 50 and last 100 charts it can show the last 50 below average but somehow the last 100 (or 250) can be above average? In the example below, at the right of those time graphs shouldn’t both line be below average (used Rooker as an example but i see this all the time) https://preview.redd.it/wkz6jm1t303b1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1ad1087d6ea3a9edaf7c8696e28526bc27ca7fb2
It's the rolling average of those plate appearances, so the value of the far right point of the 100 PA graph has all the elite production from 50-100 PA ago, while the far right if the 50 PA graph has only the replacement level production of PA 1-50. The production from 50-100 PA ago boosts the average enough so that it's still above league average, despite the disappointing performance if the past 50 PA. Another way to look at it is the left side. The leftmost point of the 100 PA graph is the average of 100-200 PA ago, while the leftmost point of the 50 PA graph is the average of 50-100 PA ago
So it’s a rolling average vs the absolute values. Ok. That makes sense. I couldn’t find a description on the website. Thanks for that! It makes sense.
Having Judge and Julio together rules
I have Betts and Acuña and it feels pretty damn good
May or skubal for IL stasharooni?
Skubal
Drop bader, Happ, or baty for Lewis?
Maybe Bader. He’s got an injury bug
10 t points redraft A.) Taj Bradley , Bobby Miller B.) Dylan Cease
Drop Snell for Whitlock?
I keep forgetting waiting for Snell to have a strong run. Last years run took some time into the season to start so i haven’t given up hope. Having said that i understand why you might. But i would avoid Whitlock this week vs Tampa bay. They are hitting .846 ops as a team!
But one can only wait so long. My pitching took a big hit losing Spring and Rasmussen. Since then I've dropped in the standings.
Hunter brown or Dylan cease ROS?
I need to activate Hendriks. I was high on Eury Perez but he’s my most logical drop. Thoughts? 12T H2H points
Just hold until you have to make a move. Liam is mostly gunna have a few non-save opportunities to try to get rid of the rust.
I would do that. He has upside but he also gets no run support
Anyone's yahoo notifications not work last night? And why are there 2 ben Joyce's?
Keeper categories Trade Machado to get Gerrit Cole?
How many Ben Joyce is yahoo gonna add?
So connecting the dots... ELDC telegraphed that he will be in BOS for their series against the red sox... The day before he teased us with a song about "congratulations"... People should connect those dots to say he WILL BE called up. I strongly believe he will be recalled to the majors today... MUST ADD ASAP... This is a kid with 40 HR 50 SB upside over the course of a full season and could be a league winner... You been saving your FAAB this is the time to spend it!!! Yahoo percentages only show 32%. That should skyrocket ASAP. Go scoop him up!!! Even if he isn't part of YOUR plans he could be traded for MASSIVE returns... two aces or something like that!!! There is HUGE VALUE even in that aspect!!! I find myself having no hitters to cut, but NEED TO HAVE Elly... He is just WAY TOO GOOD... Next year he very well could be a top 10 pick!!! Fantasy gold mine with his skill set (5 tool freakish talent). Don't be sleeping, GO ADD HIM NOW!!!
Relevant username
LOL. "Dangerous Hope" yeah I didn't choose my username actually!!! I logged in for the first time on reddit with my email and somehow there was already this username attached to it... Was darn strange... Truthfully I don't like it... Is there a way I can change my username?
Better IL stash Skubal or May?
[удалено]
A
A
Ozuna or F Álvarez?
Dynasty Eury for baty or Volpe?
baty
McClain, Lewis and McKinstry are all FA. Are any suitable replacement if I trade Volpe?
Royce
Drop B Lowe for McMahon? 10T cats
Fair trade? 10 keeper league Team A sends Volpe+4th round Team B sends Alexis Diaz+17th round Team A Composition Realmuto Lowe G Torres Bergman Semien Santander Arozarena Josh Lowe Yandy Diaz Yelich MacNeil Devers G Henderson Mount castle o Cruz on dl Gerrit cole Gibson Castillo Gallen Mikolas Severino IL: puk, Munoz Team B S Murphy H ram Betts A Riley T walls Marte Moniak Trout Moncada B stott Alonso Contreras IL Chisholm, Duran Steele Sandoval Leclerc Barlow Y cano J Adam Eflin Giolito IL Rasmussen Team A needs RP (obviously) Team B is in fire sale mode and building for next year. Fair trade? Possible alternative? ETA McClain Lewis and McKinstry are all on the WW to potentially be picked up
What LF can I get in exchange for Peña? I have Royce and Betts who can cover short and I have Kris Bryant stinking it up in left.
Is Soroka going to stay in this rotation or does he come out when Fried returns? Trying to think long term and I'm debating between Soroka or Liberatore...
I punted on catcher in the draft, lucked into O'Hoppe, then he got hurt. Last week, I got two total points from Gomes. The week before, it was one total point from Betancourt. Should I just go no catcher and use that roster spot elsewhere? The most rostered catcher available in my league is D'Arnaud.
Idk how many adds you get a week or season but you’d be better off using that spot to stream pitchers and maximize its value instead of holding onto an unproductive catcher.
I ended up dropping Gomes to move Royce out of my IL spot
Drop louie varland for peralta?
Freddy Peralta? Yes
Yes
Would you guys rather have Alexis Diaz or Estevez as a closer?
Diaz.
I know Shane Bieber has been pretty good this year but my god his savant page is ugly
Savant for pitchers is pretty useless, but he has got pretty lucky with how far his K's have dropped. I'd trade him if I could.
Dropping Rosario for McLain in a points league is ok, right? Or should I drop Polanco?
Amed? Yes that's okay. Do it asap.
I see Liam Hendriks played last night…I also see an ugly stat line. What was the context of his appearance? High or low leverage?
Down 1 in the 8th and his velo was down a couple ticks. I'd give him a couple weeks before showing any concern.
Probably emotions and faced a tough lineup The standing ovation I can see throwing him off
down by 1 in the seventh
[удалено]
I would reject
Drop Hoerner for Elly De La Cruz?
Hell no ? Anyone else lol
If you can afford to stash a player then I think it's worth it
https://preview.redd.it/te3z0p2nfy2b1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff6ffff25a76f0704afa4dfaa245ab995b468542 Anyone I can drop here for Bello
Outman. Brown. Dejong.
Seth Brown.
Drop McLain to activate Royce Lewis?
I'd try to roster both. If he's your literal only option, then yes I probably would. Lewis edges out McLain by a bit but only if Lewis is guaranteed every day playing time.
Gavin Williams or McCinstry? Who is a more priority add? Gavin feels like a "can't miss" elite blue chip pitcher... meanwhile McCinstry super solid bench bat to fill in all over the place... My league used OBP as well so McCinstry is a gem, but I am just worried about missing out on Gavin Williams stash... 8 teams make playoffs so I more care about LATER (September) as opposed to now... (And I"m in 2nd place) I guess it's nice to have that bat insurance? (I currently have no bench bats and a loaded offense). Am I being too high on Gavin? I want both him and McInstry? Both available in FAAB.. (I was fact was the one who cut McInstry a few days ago). I can only drop one guy (Ryne Nelson) although I guess some other droppables are Alex Wood, Jack Flaherty, JP Sears, Varland, Paxton?? I have "useful" dudes and can't realistic find the "cut" button on them... I want Alex Wood for his start vs PIT, Sears been solid, Varland solid, Paxton solid, Flaherty better lately... What to do!!!? I could wait a few days and then cut Alex Wood for Gavin? (cuz I'm not starting Wood next at COL in coors, nope)
Gavin Williams doesn’t have a path to the big leagues currently without an injury or two. Guardians have a roster crunch.
Andrew Abbott more likely to be up soon?
I’m not as high on him but he’s definitely got a better path.
yeah no doubt, Gavin Williams feel like a SURE THING ACE. Eh?
He looks legit. Him and Eury are probably the top 2 pitching prospects in baseball right now with Painter being hurt.
Indeed, I tend to think they will force a trade or FIND A WAY to get Gavin in there? He is just way too good... extraordinary numbers in minors...
Most likely non-injury scenario is that they trade Bieber at the deadline. But that’s still two months away.
yeah he can fetch the highest return for a big offensive bat that they ABSOLUTELY NEED... A team like the angels comes to mind with their extra bats and a few others... Still two months of uncertainty... One thing you agree with though is that Gavin Williams is a legit blue chip elite young Ace correct?
Would you drop B. Lowe, France or Morel for Elly De LA Cruz if he comes up?
I already dropped Lowe. If you've got someone else to play 2B for now, drop him and get Elly before it's too late
I'd probably drop all of them but Lowe would be first followed by France.
Is Royce Lewis worth dropping Jeremy Peña or Jonah Heim (I also have Varsho)?
Drop heim yesterday
Done. Just added Royce. Thanks for the input!
i'd drop heim he's cooled off and garver is gonna compete for his playing time moving forward
I was hoping he could at least get back on track, but man, his swing looks sluggish. Thanks for the help!
Redraft flair A: Kershaw, Elly Da La Cruz B: Josh Lowe, Nestor Cortes
A in a LANDSLIDE... like completely!!! Wow... BLOCKBUSTER league winner!
A all day
Elly
I really want to add Eloy, but the only guy i would be able to drop is Santander. Think that’s a solid move? Or maybe try to package Santander in a trade?
Bryce Miller or Gunnar Henderson in dynasty?
Bryce for me
Current shortstop situation 10 team league Wander Franco Matt McLain Tim Anderson Royce Lewis Chris Morel Said yolo and grabbed elly de la Cruz. Trust the process
SS is deeper than ever...
[удалено]
Adam is the best player here imo and will get holds even when Fairbanks is back
[удалено]
A
Drop Perdomo so I can activate Royce Lewis? I know Statcast doesn’t seem to like him, but Perdomo has been solid with 2.8 PPG so far.
Do you think receiving Eovaldi and J Rodriguez is good enough for Ohtani?
No
Who’s the hot darkhorse for OF right now? Need to replace Mullins once he goes on the IL.
McCarthy if he’s available
[удалено]
Kwan probably the safer pick for points cause he doesn’t strikeout much, but McCarthy if you want to attempt to replace Mullins’ steals
I like Zach McKinstry
McKinstry is taken 3
[удалено]
I play cats so I would take McKinstry but Kwan might be better in points
[удалено]
A by alot
My Brock Stewart vs her Altuve was pure pain today
Who to drop of these SP categories 8 team? I'm pretty new could I package two for a trade? M. Kelly, Severino, Steele, Stroman
Id try to package. Those guys are all really solid. Why are you dropping?
Just almost no bench space. Just 3 spots
Drop 2: josh bell, maikel Garcia, jarred duran, edouard julien, or Royce Lewis
Take Lewis off this list dont care about the rest
As in Lewis is an auto roster? Julien falls of my ML roster if I don’t activate him by the 2nd, first 3 are on my active roster.
Lewis is auto roster
Fuck, just noticed that Lewis will be a waiver and I’m 6th. Would you roster Julien over bell or Garcia? I imagine Julien goes back down the second Polanco is back. edited this after I saw he’s a damn waiver.
Nestor getting rocked tomorrow ?
I gotta start him since Miller ruined my ERA for the week, so yeah, he’s getting rocked for sure.
Stream Gibson against the Guardians or Bello against the Reds tomorrow?
Bello. He’s been a stud his last 5 or so games
Pick up McMahon yesterday
[удалено]
Lindor
Lindor

B
Raise your hand if you added Ben Joyce instead of Ben Joyce in Yahoo ✋
CALL UP ELLY
Drop Tim Anderson for Royce Lewis?
Royce
Keep 20 forever - 12 team 5x5 H2H cats Give: McLain Get: Sale I also have Royce Lewis and Tim Anderson for SS, should I make this move?
Yup
Who to drop from these 3 OF (yahoo redraft 5x5 roto) Michael Harris, James Outman, Brent Rooker
Rooker.
Not Harris. Either Outman or Rooker, flip a coin to decide.
Rooker with close imo
Definitely not Harris. Either flip him for another player or bench but don't just drop him. Of those Rooker is the most obvious imo
I know this sounds insane but Joel Payamps, Miguel Castro or Jason Adam for Ratios and Holds?
I'm all about Payamps
Turned Steele in JD a couple hours ago. Feel pretty good
Drop Correa for McLain?
Yeah
Yes
no
Would you rather have Steele or Sonny Gray?
Probably Sonny
Any word on Machado's return? Need to activate him tonight if hes expected back tomorrow
They’re in Miami still, probably wouldn’t activate till Friday back at home
What makes you think they wouldn’t activate him on the road?
Thoughts on this trade: Send: Castellanos, Sonny Gray Receive: Arraez, Gilbert
I wouldn’t, arraez isn’t worth much of anything in categories
Yes
I like the receive package
Drop Soroka to add Schmitt for his matchups this week?
sure
[удалено]
Just added to stash
If there’s anyone you have to stash it’s him
I am
Just got offered my choice of Verlander or Scherzer for Wander. Should I be getting more for either of them? Roto redraft
Wander over them personally
ye
Is Soroka a hold?
no
yes
Cut Alec Bohm or Josh Lowe to add Kyle Schwarber?
Bohm
JD Martinez is on fire, so happy i picked him up. That savant page is all red too
I want to so bad but stuck with Harper at DH and my whole league doesn’t trade/over values their players too much
Top 2 adp draft picks are really panning out this year. Acuna and Judge may both win MVP in their respective leagues. Good year to have a top draft pick
Not a good year for Trea Turner owners sadly
If Elly isn't called up this week with all the hype and teasers, is he a drop in redraft assuming they wont call him up till September?
If you really need to get rid of him, try to trade him first.
He’s not up til September
wrong. The reds have been winning games. And Elly De La Cruz gives them a better chance to win more games! he is coming and CES is coming and Andrew Abbott is coming.. This will be a MUCH IMPROVED and even possibly a top reds offense!!! You make no sense. The team is in the race and they WILL TRY TO WIN.
You seem pretty confident. Anything you read that gave you that opinion?
Do we think the cardinals are putting Noot on the IL?
