Can you believe in my latest OOTP build, Otto Lopez turned into a god!
Justin Mason
12:19
Point awarded!
Danger Zone

Eury is ... not helping my ratios. Daily moves. Would you support a sit vs. DET, start vs. WAS? Risky bizness.
Justin Mason
12:19
that is exactly what I would do

The 2024 White Sox formally request an apology from every writer who anointed the 2025 Rockies the worst team of all team back in May. Ineptitude that is that consistent for six whole months is extremely hard to achieve!
Justin Mason
12:20
We truly saw something special last season. Point awarded!
Need Pitching
12:20
Made the H2H 6x6 categories playoffs (2nd place) and have a bye this week.  Thinking of dropping Tolle and Chandler.  I mainly target saves and pitching ratios (the league counts K/BB) and let my hitters do most of the work.  Please rank Ober, Castillo, Weathers, Wells, Littell, others of that ilk, or a good RP, for the weeks of Sept 14-28.  We have limited moves, so "stream based on matchup" is not an answer for this league.
Justin Mason
12:21
Castillo, Wells, Ober, Weathers, Littell
Brayan Bello's Safari Planet
12:21
Worth hanging onto Brayan Bello with two tough starts coming up (vs NYY, @TBR) or would you drop for either of Cade Povich or Tyler Wells (both vs PIT then @CWS)
Justin Mason
12:22
I dont think I am dropping him personally but if I did it would be for Wells.
Ampersand
12:22
Got eliminated yesterday and just need to vent - my team batted .276/.362/.515 before June 30th and .224/.315/.370 after. Everyone forgot how to hit all at once. Wood, Elly, Acuna, Seiya, Merrill...
Justin Mason
12:22
One of the reasons I dislike H2H formats.
jerry
12:23
you taking the chance on eury two start this week? 12 team playoffs, semi finals. pitching isn't my strength
Justin Mason
12:23
really depends on the other options, but I would lean no.
Bottom of the Barrell
12:24
Any thoughts on Andrew Alvarez? Getting Pirates at home this weekend
Justin Mason
12:24
The stuff is not very good and he's got a 2.6% K-BB through his first two starts. I dont think there is much reason to start him even in a good matchup.
jerry
12:24
how do you generally feel about punting on an entire category like saves? I've got a playoff opponent starting 3 closers, all mine just got hurt. thinking about just going for QS and Ks
Justin Mason
12:24
Probably a good idea
jerry
12:25
need one utility spot filled this week - jackson holliday, carp, nate lowe, d beavers
Justin Mason
12:25
Holliday

my roto team is just hemorrhaging and I really don't feel like there's anything I can do about it. no question and no laugh inducement, just vent, go me
Justin Mason
12:26
There aren't many worse feelings than this. I am dealing with it in a league and it kills me

What does Mickey Moniak's 2026 look like in your crystal ball?
Justin Mason
12:29
I definitely need to do a deep dive this offseason, but things are surprisingly good under the hood. made strides in contact. Still needs to work on his swing decisions, but he should have a regular role in Colorado. I am tempted to say we could see something similar to this next year.
kersh
12:29
are you starting pagan as a closer this week?
Justin Mason
12:29
depends on if I have other options, but probably.
larry
12:29
Who do you like for 2nd base ros. 12t h2h cat. L. Garcia, McNeil, O. Lopez, Durbin or Baty. Thank you
Justin Mason
12:29
Baty
RAGBRAI
12:29
Is a $28 Chourio in and NL 5x5 reasonable for a keeper fee. $260/23 players. 5 OF.
Justin Mason
12:29
Yes

E. Perez has a 2.25 era with a .214 wOBA at home. Two start week are at home with Was and Det. Pick him up with these ratios or stay away based on latest trend?
Justin Mason
12:30
It's a risk because we have seen recently the struggles of guys coming off of TJ with him, but it really depends on your other options. I wouldnt be rolling him out in a lot of shallower formats.
RAGBRAI
12:30
Who gets the saves in Chicago ROS? Committee?
Justin Mason
12:31
I am going to lean Kittredge, but it could be keller.
Speedy Soto
12:31
Hey Justin.  Please pick one pitcher to keep for ‘26 all same round: Gilbert, Sale or Woo.  Thanks
Justin Mason
12:31
Woo, but it is close
bdubs
12:31
It's getting desperate - I'm desperate - out there for steals. Pls rank ROS: Caballero, JLowe, Lile?

Suggest dropping Will Smith given these available catchers on the wire? Pls rank to replace him if yes: Dingler, Baldwin, Teel
Justin Mason
12:33
Ok, for this week you want Lile because the Marlins are the worst team in baseball in holding runners, but rest of the season Caballero, Lile, Lowe. Not dropping Will Smith.

9 team 5x5 NL only roto - Don't judge, we've kept this league going since 1991 :-)

Looking to next year with a 12 keeper cap and debating if any of the following are worth it: B. Ashcraft ($10) Marsee ($10) Sears ($2) Saalfrank ($10) Keller ($9) Singer ($6)

Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Justin Mason
12:33
Marsee for sure. Singer and Ashcraft are maybes
