Just venting. I am dropping 2 of 5 Ottoneu leagues because of leagues are filled with mgrs scared to trade…

Justin Mason

12:45

I am in a league where no one will trade and it makes it very unfun

13 team mixed redraft - need IP/QS/Ks - would you start Peralta @ COL @ ATH now that he is on TB? Can they fix him that quick?

Justin Mason

12:45

I am probably sitting him outside of deeper leagues.

AU86

12:45

Devin Willaims for Logan Henderson - redraft. Which side would you prefer?

Justin Mason

12:46

I think it depends on what I need. If I need saves, then Williams makes a lot of sense there. Henderson has a ton of upside tho

Ragbrai

It’s simmering so far today. Does the Christine trade deadline boil over in a couple of hours?

Justin Mason

12:47

its been a pretty wild deadline so far. I dont know how many more big trades there are left.

Jon Tayler

12:47

Rank these OF in an OBP roto league with 5 OF? McCarthy, Adell, Grisham

Justin Mason

12:47

thats the order

Ragbrai

12:47

SOLDS NL who accumlates more Megill or Diaz in LA?

Justin Mason

12:47

Diaz

Robert

12:47

You nailed it, unfun.

Justin Mason

12:47

I hate people who play scared. Its a game. Make it fun!

AU86

12:47

do we have baseball in 2027? 162 games?

Justin Mason

12:47

yes, but not 162

Ragbrai

12:47

Mize Moving? Brewers seem quiet so far.

Justin Mason

12:48

I think he does. I would be shocked if he is in Detroit tomorrow

12T points - my end of bench bats are Gleyber/Edman/Canzone/G Mitchell, who’s the worst of the 4 and would you stream that spot or keep rolling them all out?

Justin Mason

12:48

Mitchell

I would stream the spot

AU86

12:48

how abbreviated a season in 2027? 120 games?

Justin Mason

12:48

120 seems right

Robert

12:48

Unfun because no nothing. No counters. No negotiations. No alternatives. All ghostting. Thank you for letting me vent

Justin Mason

12:49

Find a new league

yochuckie

12:49

I have Detmers going for a two start. Will a trade force me to yank him?

Justin Mason

12:49

yeah, I think he's moving

Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe

12:49

Defense is obviously a big part of baseball, but it's almost unused in fantasy. What are the best defensive categories that you have seen that at least somewhat emulate defensive value? Our league currently does Double Plays Turned and Outfield Assists, but that makes first basemen more valuable as DPT machines.

Justin Mason

12:50

Ive never played in a league with defensive stats. I would love to see how it works!

GatorKen

Worse than people not trading is millionaires arguing with billionaires over money. Let's play ball in 2027

Justin Mason

12:50

A million is a lot less than a billion. I support the players

Ragbrai

12:50

Is the sane argument that others could have beat LA’d offer but chose not to and Basrball isn’t dead? Or that this is why a cap is needed.

Justin Mason

12:51

I know people are saying that a cap would fix this, but a cap wouldnt have changed the Skubal deal at all. The difference is the Dodgers are willing to take the risk because they have done a great job developing talent. That isn't going away with a cap

Robert

12:51

I am abandoning after the ottoneu trades close and these are not H2H so i will not be hurting anyone elses positions. Vent #2….H2H abandonments

Justin Mason

12:52

I dont love H2H in part because of this.

AU86

12:52

Justin - Thank you for your multiple responses. You are an encyclopedia of info!

Justin Mason

12:52

Thank you! I try to answer as many questions as I can so everyone feels like they get something from my chats.
