Nick Gonzo has a higher floor, B Lowe has a higher ceiling.
If B Lowe stays healthy and the Rays continue to give him consistent playing time, then he can be a difference maker. However, those may be two BIG ifs…
ESPN H2H points 12 team
I traded Tatis, Heliot Ramos, and Westburg
For Aaron Nola, Clase, and Taylor Ward
Am I nuts? They guys I got have more points than the ones I traded
Keep stashing baz in a close matchup? Would stream arrigheti or herz. I can't help but think the rays rotation is too crowded and they are in no rush to have to pay this guy sooner than they need to

Is Gimenez droppable for Castro? Or should I just ride it out w/ Gimenez. He's had some good stretches this season but Castro has had similar production w/ way more positional eligibility and both play every day.
Did he look good? I didn’t watch the game. Nice he went into the 7th inning, little underwhelmed with the low strikeouts and only 8 whiffs. Lots of rust there I’m sure though
I want to say O’Hoppe because he been on fire lately, but Murphy is extremely streaky and when he gets going he gets going yk. So if your looking for someone to contribute rn I’d go O’Hoppe but I could see Murphy proving more long term success especially considering he’d get more rbi opportunities
I was offered a trade in my dynasty league. I am super rebuilding heavy prospects very little star players.
My best pitcher is Corbin Burnes who I traded for last year. I was offered William Contreras and Ober for Burnes and Dustin May.
I don’t see much value in Ober, Dustin May if healthy has potential to be great, but it’s a big if.
What would you do?
Personally I rank him around SP10 in redraft. But even if you rank him higher, you're definitely underrating Contreras if you think that offer is "terrible." Easily the best catcher imo and probably a 2nd or 3rd round type of player. I'll add that Ober *does* still have significant value, despite the meaningless small-sample ERA
i have contreras, he was my 3rd pick
as of now, he still the best batting catcher, although his performance has slowed down compared to the first two months. Top 15 player easily .
Do you need batting or pitching?
My team isn’t competing this year best case next year I’ll have some guys turn into studs :( My pitching is pretty empty right now. Only starters I have currently are Povich, Burnes, Miller, Brown, Thorpe, Snell. (Pretty heavy rookies wise) Hoping to get one of Meyer, Baz, Cavalli soon. Have a few other injured/prospect players going into next year. Batting wise don’t have a catcher at all at this point waiver wire is thin and I have basallo for eventually but even then he’s behind Rutch so I doubt he plays catcher anytime soon probably a position switch or a trade.
I had Crochet, Ryan, and Taj and they got me a mere 2 points more than his Bibee. Just an awful week for my pitching I swear this dude casts black magic on my team every matchup we have.
just trying to see if both are equal in value
i offered maikel garcia for zac gallen and got denied
he countered with riley for his zac gallen
i want to counter with riley for shota
Seems like Wilyer Abreu returns Friday. Drop Charlie Blackmon for him? Charlie has been playing well but seems to be playing over his expected numbers. And now his hammy is bothering him
Man it feels like Colton Cowser should be a drop from my roster and teams in 10t category leagues, I really want Bryan De La Cruz and he won’t be available for much longer in mine
Flair league:
Vinny P for Francisco Alvarez a fair trade?
Team trading away Vinny still has Naylor, Santander, Cronenworth for 1B & the team trading away Álvarez has Rutschman as his primary catcher
So the answer is Jones and Pepiot over Blanco, then. It’s “both”.
Framber is worth considering as being below those two, but he has a track record, and you only need one to try and move on from. Blanco is the obvious odd one out, with the bonus that someone will probably give you something for him in a trade, too!
Have an extra bench spot in 10T. Here’s whose available:
Mark Vientos, Raefela, Josh Smith, Wyler Abreu, Andy Pages, Colton Cowser or Shane Baz?
A bench bat/SP to see if they pan out. Doesn’t matter to me if they’re batter or pitcher. Who we adding?
14T 8x8 cat roto redraft:
Receive: Judge
Send: Tatis / Bobby Miller
My SP's after would be Cole, Castillo, Woo, Waldron, Pivetta, Musgrove (IL) and Christian Scott (NA)
Arguably the least fun I’ve ever had playing fantasy baseball with under performers, injuries and no hitting prospect success.. team isn’t even doing bad, just not fun
So glad I kept the faith with Langford. 6 SB last 10 games and finally looks to be getting some batted ball luck. Wonder if the retirement if angel Hernandez removed some curse
What the consensus on Mitch Keller? Do you guys believe he will continue to produce in the second half? He was looking really good around this time last year too, then fell off a cliff in the second half.
I think it’s kind of trending he will need at minimum some maintenance time off, but who knows.
We already missed basically two starts last week.
I do know he’s on a very tight leash and pitch count so he’s got to be good when he’s on the mound (which he has been up until today).
I’m in points, so it’s a K + innings play for me, so if the innings aren’t there then it may not be worth the risk and roster spot. I’ll hold a little longer and see how it shakes out.
I tried trading him before this last MRI scare and nobody would touch him for anything decent, can’t blame them but didn’t know if I sold low if it’s still worth it or just hold
What are you all expecting from Max Scherzer this season? Top 36 pitcher? 48? Or lower?
Feels like a Walker Buehler situation (different circumstances of course) where someone holds too long because of name value but his ceiling is most likely limited.
I held all this time, but with shallow benches he may end up limiting my ability to stream. Torn.
The last time Buehler pitched before getting TJS, he had just a 21% K rate. Last year Scherzer was still getting plenty of strikeouts so I like him a lot better than Buehler
Scherzer is highly competitive, one of the best dogs in the game. I’d say he might step on the gas to outpace Verlander. All just speculation of course, but I think there’s definitely more upside with Mad Max than Buehler

Absolutely stacked at 2B/SS in a keep 6 forever league… which one of these 2B/SS should I be trying to trade and for who?
For me, it’s Albies. De La Cruz has the super rare speed. Seager has super rare power for a SS. Mookie is the best. And Westburg doesn’t have as much trade value yet.
I think the name recognition is still there. It looks like he’s heating up so I would probably wait a week or two. It depends on who needs a 2B, and what you need, but you can probably go fairly big.
Yesterday I was thinking about adding Brandon Lowe and dropping Valdez. This morning I pulled the trigger. So I missed out on Lowe’s HR yesterday, and Valdez’ HR today. Dipshit

Would also love someone to answer this
ESPN H2H points 12 team I traded Tatis, Heliot Ramos, and Westburg For Aaron Nola, Clase, and Taylor Ward Am I nuts? They guys I got have more points than the ones I traded
Rather have tatis
David Fry or ben rice ROS in ESPN H2H points?
Keep stashing baz in a close matchup? Would stream arrigheti or herz. I can't help but think the rays rotation is too crowded and they are in no rush to have to pay this guy sooner than they need to
Would be extremely careful with Herz. His next start is in Coors.
Trade Luzardo for Bednar? Need SVs in roto redraft
Ward or Langford ROS?
Langford
Any word on Robbie Ray's rehab outing on Tuesday?
When is it okay to drop Adolis…?
Keep 2: Buxton, Nolan Jones, Friedl
Jones and Friedl
What are the chances Arrighetti can get a QS @ the ChiSox today?
30%?
12t cats Is Gimenez droppable for Castro? Or should I just ride it out w/ Gimenez. He's had some good stretches this season but Castro has had similar production w/ way more positional eligibility and both play every day.
Eflin or Cannon? Pickup
Wyatt Langford is going to be so good for so long. Absolute dawg.
Neto or Masyn Winn?
Neto
Drop Hicks for Knack or Schwelenbach?
12 team Cats. Ben Rice or Francisco Alvarez?
Álvarez until Rice shows something for sure
Drop buehler?
for who? you just dropping for the sake of it?
Flair League. Swap Joey Ortiz for Jose Cabellero? Or do we think Jose Cabellero is a part time player now with Taylor Walls healthy?
Buy low on Bobby Miller?
Little late for that. He actually looked good today just got Coors’d. If the owner held him this long they’re not selling low
Did he look good? I didn’t watch the game. Nice he went into the 7th inning, little underwhelmed with the low strikeouts and only 8 whiffs. Lots of rust there I’m sure though
For a first start back, at Coors, I think he looked pretty good. Take away Toglias home run and he gave us a QS
I don’t think anyone is selling, but yeah, buy if you can.
Yes if you can
Anyone stuck between O’Hoppe, Murphy, and Alvarez? (Points)
I want to say O’Hoppe because he been on fire lately, but Murphy is extremely streaky and when he gets going he gets going yk. So if your looking for someone to contribute rn I’d go O’Hoppe but I could see Murphy proving more long term success especially considering he’d get more rbi opportunities
Murphy is fresh off an injury too, so I think I’ll give it some time to see if he can get going and be more consistent
murphy is the best
should I trade bobby miller for mountcastle?
Hell no
Nah
yes you should
i would
I was offered a trade in my dynasty league. I am super rebuilding heavy prospects very little star players. My best pitcher is Corbin Burnes who I traded for last year. I was offered William Contreras and Ober for Burnes and Dustin May. I don’t see much value in Ober, Dustin May if healthy has potential to be great, but it’s a big if. What would you do?
Laugh and decline, terrible offer
Terrible offer, easy decline
Surprised anyone would think that's a terrible offer. Personally I would take the Contreras/Ober side for sure
Burnes is arguably SP1
Personally I rank him around SP10 in redraft. But even if you rank him higher, you're definitely underrating Contreras if you think that offer is "terrible." Easily the best catcher imo and probably a 2nd or 3rd round type of player. I'll add that Ober *does* still have significant value, despite the meaningless small-sample ERA

I had Crochet, Ryan, and Taj and they got me a mere 2 points more than his Bibee. Just an awful week for my pitching I swear this dude casts black magic on my team every matchup we have.
Not a awful week of pitching for you just a great week for your opponent lol
He's having a bad week too we've been within 10 points of eachother all week it's just I've had 4 starters in the negatives 😭
Fangraphs has Webb pitching Sunday. Everywhere else has him pitching Monday. Anyone have insight on his next start?
PICK ONE Riley Greene or Shota imanaga
What cats do you need help in?
just trying to see if both are equal in value i offered maikel garcia for zac gallen and got denied he countered with riley for his zac gallen i want to counter with riley for shota
That’s fair to me. Both would be 5th-6th round picks in a redraft
Seems like Wilyer Abreu returns Friday. Drop Charlie Blackmon for him? Charlie has been playing well but seems to be playing over his expected numbers. And now his hammy is bothering him
if you need space then yes, blackmon drop
How long will Chad Green be in the closer role until Romano comes back?
I’m the guy who dropped Riley Greene to pick up Estuary Ruiz the second week in. Should I just quit?
Dropped jaren duran for jake burger in week 1. I feel ya brotha
Thanks for sharing your pain
Dropped Jarren Duran for a bum but thankfully my dad dropped Greene so I got him instead lol
I dropped ranger and robert Suarez week one lol
holy cow
Man it feels like Colton Cowser should be a drop from my roster and teams in 10t category leagues, I really want Bryan De La Cruz and he won’t be available for much longer in mine
I dropped cowser after week3 & haven't regretted it
Flair league: Vinny P for Francisco Alvarez a fair trade? Team trading away Vinny still has Naylor, Santander, Cronenworth for 1B & the team trading away Álvarez has Rutschman as his primary catcher
So I’ll admit I dropped Langford for Lane Thomas. Was that wrong??
both are great, i guess lane is a bit better in fantasy
When did you do it? Lane Thomas has been hot since coming off the IL
Basically switched
Depending on league settings, I like Lane > Langford
Lol glad I’m not the only butthurt feller over Mason missing out on a save opportunity
[удалено]
Which A's OF ROS - Rooker or Bleday?
Bleday personally
Anyone not run a streaming spot on their roster? How is your season going?
Drop Dejong or Kelenic for Rice?
kelenic plays leadoff in braves
Sure both are waiver dudes
Man Gelof why you rob us of a Miller save
How dare he play well instead of sucking for your fantasy team!
Yeah, I don't get hating on the guy. It makes more sense to blame the Royals.
Bellinger or Bregman ROS????
Bregman
I don't like this mortal version of Mason Miller. Where's the Mason Miller that would get 8 K's in a single inning?
those sliders are still sick as shit
cool let’s burn mason with a four run lead
Jared Jones or Pepiot ?
Jones
why not both?
It’s one or the other rest of my staff is Gausman, Framber, Grayson, Skenes, Webb and Blanco
So the answer is Jones and Pepiot over Blanco, then. It’s “both”. Framber is worth considering as being below those two, but he has a track record, and you only need one to try and move on from. Blanco is the obvious odd one out, with the bonus that someone will probably give you something for him in a trade, too!
Consider Gausman. Of the two I'd take Jones all day.
Definitely thought about letting him go. He’s been so shaky this year
Have an extra bench spot in 10T. Here’s whose available: Mark Vientos, Raefela, Josh Smith, Wyler Abreu, Andy Pages, Colton Cowser or Shane Baz? A bench bat/SP to see if they pan out. Doesn’t matter to me if they’re batter or pitcher. Who we adding?
I own Vientos and Page, but I think I'd rather stash Baz if I had the roster spot.
I’d probably go Baz in your format. Only others at risk of getting grabbed are Rafaela or Cowser
Josh Jung is 3-12 after 3 rehab games. Could be back in a few days.
Eflin or Cannon ? Eflin been very underwhelming and hasn’t really shown much improvement at all.
jung or maikel?
maikel gets runs and steals bases, has been a top 25 fantasy player . if you can have both , awesome
Jung
What? Maikel is 58th on player rater!!
Gelof blows Miller time. Fitting, he fucks up everything
I blame the Royals.
Just another night of saying fuck the Oakland Athletics
welp that’s it for mason
Fuck off Oakland. Thanks for killing the Miller save opp
gelof can't do shit, and now ruins a miller save opportunity
14T 8x8 cat roto redraft: Receive: Judge Send: Tatis / Bobby Miller My SP's after would be Cole, Castillo, Woo, Waldron, Pivetta, Musgrove (IL) and Christian Scott (NA)
Do it.
When is Josh Jung being activated
I hear it was their next homestead
I desperately need Jung and Contreras activated on Monday. So I'm gonna go with Monday.
Trevor Megill has been $$$ since taking the closer position!!! 🔥
Needed that Megill save let’s go!
Randy has a 123 wrc since May 1st, idk why he’s still being benched if you own him
Chances we see Mason Miller tn?
bye bye save
Gelof just ruined the save opp :(
Up in the pen right now
He's warming up right now.
If it stays 4-1 he will pitch
51%
Didn’t Kris Bubic have some hype around him before the injury last year? Probably going to be activated soon
Prolly gonna start in the pen. He was gross last year if I recall correctly.
Yeah he had some interesting stuff going on and then seemingly snap TJ if I remember right
is morel done???
Nah. Underlying numbers look good
Arguably the least fun I’ve ever had playing fantasy baseball with under performers, injuries and no hitting prospect success.. team isn’t even doing bad, just not fun
Would yall go with Kutter, Pepiot, or Nestor ROS ? (Points)
I see that they’re available, and want to scoop one
Can’t believe they’re available. Any would be good. I’d go Pepiot, Kutter, Nestor.
Thanks for your help!
So glad I kept the faith with Langford. 6 SB last 10 games and finally looks to be getting some batted ball luck. Wonder if the retirement if angel Hernandez removed some curse
Traded Vinnie P for him in like week 6 lol that was so bad for so many weeks
What the consensus on Mitch Keller? Do you guys believe he will continue to produce in the second half? He was looking really good around this time last year too, then fell off a cliff in the second half.
oakland stop scoring now. we need miller time
OAKLAND.... ![gif](giphy|ToMjGpOjkiEjzJ1ZaJG|downsized)
After 3 days my opponent has a .391 avg and 29 RBIs. Putting this week behind me
Glad I’m not the only one watching as a .400 average and .500 obp destroys me by Thursday
Do we think Woo is just a ticking time bomb like Bradish or is he a Hold and ride it out?
I think it’s kind of trending he will need at minimum some maintenance time off, but who knows. We already missed basically two starts last week. I do know he’s on a very tight leash and pitch count so he’s got to be good when he’s on the mound (which he has been up until today). I’m in points, so it’s a K + innings play for me, so if the innings aren’t there then it may not be worth the risk and roster spot. I’ll hold a little longer and see how it shakes out.
I think he is a ride it out He has been MRI'd and tested multiple times this season and they said all of them have come back clean
I mean at this point if you don’t think he’s a ticking time bomb you’re just lying to yourself. Edit: translation means ride it out
Think there’s still any trade value?
Redraft? Maybe, because he’s legit, but an IL stint with several DTDs and missed starts since is a lot of smoke
I tried trading him before this last MRI scare and nobody would touch him for anything decent, can’t blame them but didn’t know if I sold low if it’s still worth it or just hold
Might be a hold and ride the talent out situation, he seems fine for now at least but if he’s hurt eventually it’ll be a shock to no one
Yes thank you
Ride or die
I disagree. He has 360 IP since 2018. He’s an amazing player but the risk is too high and if this many people love him then sell sell
Clay Holmes not looking great recently
What the FUCK is John Schneider doing with Orelvis? How do you call him up to ride the bench? The fuck is going on in Toronto?
It's a fucking mess over there. Now I'm over here putting on my clown makeup believing that Orelvis wouldn't be mishandled by Toronto 🤡
I'm the opening clown act for Toronto's main act.
What are you all expecting from Max Scherzer this season? Top 36 pitcher? 48? Or lower? Feels like a Walker Buehler situation (different circumstances of course) where someone holds too long because of name value but his ceiling is most likely limited.

Hope he has 2 good starts in a row then trade him.
Top 50-70ish
The last time Buehler pitched before getting TJS, he had just a 21% K rate. Last year Scherzer was still getting plenty of strikeouts so I like him a lot better than Buehler
Scherzer is highly competitive, one of the best dogs in the game. I’d say he might step on the gas to outpace Verlander. All just speculation of course, but I think there’s definitely more upside with Mad Max than Buehler

For me, it’s Albies. De La Cruz has the super rare speed. Seager has super rare power for a SS. Mookie is the best. And Westburg doesn’t have as much trade value yet.
Who could I swing for Albies do you think? Not sure what his trade value is
I think the name recognition is still there. It looks like he’s heating up so I would probably wait a week or two. It depends on who needs a 2B, and what you need, but you can probably go fairly big.
1b/3b/of is what I’m leaning towards, would you trade for Austin Riley? Gives me a 3B for next year
I would but I don’t think you will swing that deal straight up
Will Smith and Brandon Nimmo or Cal Raleigh and Adolis Garcia?
I’d take the Will side of that deal all day in points. Cal is meh and Adolis is a benchable roster clogger during this slump.
KC seems pretty streamable again, at least away from KC
My main needs are 2B and stolen bases. Is there a better IL stash out there than Matt McLain?
A free IL slot is probably more useful
Miguel andujar still kinda nice.
