Yes
And in such a case, you should either join a better league or - if you like the current league - try to help your rivals to level the playing field
4:13
You didn't build a monster roster by mistake, you leveraged some shortcoming in league design or owner quality
So fix those issues
4:14
If you succeed by being on the wire more often than your opponents, make it a nightly FAAB
Yea Buddy
4:14
Filling empty roster for ABs on Thursday, who do you like most out of Moreland, Kepler, O'Hearn, Mauer
Brad Johnson
4:15
O'Hearn (or a DBack at Coors)
Angelus Novus

25th round keeper, in what order would you put Wheeler, Marquez and Rodon?
Brad Johnson
4:15
Well, Rodon third
4:16
Do you need to decide soon for some reason? I'd sit on this all winter and digest.
Wheeler, I like better right now. He's got the better home park - could get traded though
Also has all that injury history
Marquez has been healthy, but there's more to fear for non-injury reasons
4:17
Jon Gray is a good lesson on what can happen when you're not quite sharp at that park
Like, he's legit pitched well in a real sense and also has lethal fantasy numbers

Thoughts on Albies going forward?  He's so young that I feel pretty comfortable projecting some solid growth in the coming years, but I also feel like his shift in swing/approach to create more power could hinder his OBP going forward.  Seems safe to at least expect more steals going forward, right?
Brad Johnson
4:18
Whoops, picked another of yours...
Yes, he's young and talented and not as good as everybody thought he was in April
that should not come as a surprise though

My league is switching to a dynasty format next year.  Any recommendations on rules/strategy for a first time dynasty player?
Brad Johnson
4:18
Oh
That's a LONG topic
4:19
I will definitely write on that and similar topics very often over the offseason
If your league is willing to be patient about setting rules

Brad! Assuming I win this week, do I ditch Muncy for Ramona Laureano or marcel ozuna in my H2H points league championship?
Brad Johnson
4:19
Ozuna, assuming there aren't major keeper considerations
4:20
Ozuna is quietly hitting very well since July

Hi Brad, I picked up a $2 Amed Rosario and $4 Aaron Sanchez off Ottoneau Waivers. Would you see these two as keepers for next year?
Brad Johnson
4:20
Probably keep Rosario for $4 and cut Sanchez for $6
4:21
Rosario isn't returning $4 of value, but there's enough breakout potential to justify it
However, he's not a must-keep by any means
And I think you'll find he carries almost no trade value
He's hot right now so see if he keeps it up
Could get a bounce in value that way

12-team Mixed, keep 12. Is Harper a keeper at 33$ next year? Have Mookie at 17$, Pollock 16$, Bellinger 10$.
Brad Johnson
4:22
Absent more info, I can only say that it smells like par value
JR
4:22
Deep league (18 teams, 40 player roster, $260).  Is B Ham worth keeping at $21, he has been okay the second half?
Brad Johnson
4:22
Oof, that hurts
4:23
Probably yes. Kinda depends on what you could do with $21 in the draft
Really?
4:23
What game do you have to be watching to even ask Bregman v. Springer in a keeper?
