Hey folks, I'm just finishing getting some thoughts down on paper. We'll get started here in a few minutes.
12:04
Ok, you have my attention now!
I was typing up my "solution" to weekly leagues.
12:05
For me, I need daily engagement or the league might as well not exist. I can't do this check on Sunday nonsense.
If you're curious, here's what I suggest - https://www.patreon.com/posts/19840762
And now, on to the good stuff

Are you a Manaea believer? Or time to sell high on him?
Brad Johnson
12:05
I'd rather sell high than hold, but that doesn't mean to just take the best offer
12:06
So often, I see somebody try to sell high and fail
My home keeper league, a guy was trying to Bauer and others to pry cheap Soto away from me.
When I pushed back, he swapped Bauer for Moustakas
12:07
Bauer was $15 to keep and Moose should not be kept at any price in this format (I think he costs $8).
Guy isn't contending so keeper price was everything
Anyway... don't settle for a moose

Keep forever h2h using FGpts scoring. Trade Darvish/Bieber for (Rodgers and the roster spot)?
Brad Johnson
12:08
I don't think I'm that keen on Rodgers. Besides, SP inventory is everything in H2H. I'm 12-1 with a terrible roster purely because I make two starts every day. My one loss was because all my starts got clumped on two days.

12 team dynasty points – I’m 1st in points and eyeing a title.
                                                                                                     
Trade Devers, Corbin, Skaggs, Giles, Jimenez, Caleb Smith + Luis Robert FOR Kluber, Doolittle, Cody Allen, and Crawford?

Seems like a lot. I'd try to replace Corbin with a fringy upside SP like Covey rather than a currently performing one.

12:10
Would you be starting German vs. ATL today?
Brad Johnson
12:10
It depends. I am in one league because I'm 80 IP behind pace
But if you're ahead of pace, I'd probably holster that start
Vegan Man!
12:12
Are you starting Fulmer vs. CHC today - 12 team roto (QS), 180 start limit and I'm 5 starts over the pace. Thanks!
Brad Johnson
12:12
I am not

ROS any major separation between: Joe Musgrove, Dereck Rodriguez, Nick Pivetta, or Kyle Hendricks?
Brad Johnson
12:12
Not really, I probably like Pivetta most and Pudge Jr. least
12:13
Similar assets though

12:13
With Gant going full bed shatting, do we see Dakota Hudson?
Brad Johnson
12:13
I was reading something about him today, didn't sound like the Cards want to push him
Me
12:13
Would you keep Jo Adell, Eloy andor Forrest Whitley in a 12 teams 10 keepers h2h league? Im rebuilding
Brad Johnson
12:14
Definitely Eloy. Not so sure about the others. Seems a little shallow to need Adell. Whitley could show enough by end of season I guess.
My twitter is going nuts, one moment please

Unique league (5x5 w/OBP but limited moves, and players are "tied" to their DL replacements). I have Pollock tied to J-Mart, and I can't keep both. I can, however, trade them both for an upgrade. I've asked for slightly disappointing top-tier hitters like Votto, Stanton, Harper. How low should I aim? I have 2 weeks. Are Nellie Cruz or Kris Bryant good targets? Springer enough of an upgrade? Thanks.
Brad Johnson
12:15
Boy that's tricky
12:16
So the bar to cross is "better than Pollock"
While also not overly helping a direct competitor
12:17
I like Bryant, Stanton, and Harper as targets. I'm a tad hesitant about Votto, Cruz, and Springer. Not sure they're an upgrade on Pollock.
Would like to see more from Pollock since he was mid-breakout when he went down. That's an injury that can linger for awhile though.

Semien or Jorge Polanco ROS?
Brad Johnson
12:17
Semien I guess. They're pretty similar
Kyle
12:18
Do you think we continue to see Lugo used for some multi-inning holds?
