but every week that passes, you start believing more that what you're seeing, than what was predicted to appear

Who the F are they???

I recently picked up Bryan Torres and Tommy Troy. Torres is hitting .316 (.960 OPS) and Troy is hitting .417 (1.083 OPS). What are realistic expectations for these two rookies?

Nicklaus Gaut

I like Troy more (and not just for the alliteration), but his value is going to depend a lot on a "sum of parts" situation if the power stays futitle

always dicey

Nathan Eovaldi's inconsistency is killing me. Landen Roupp and Michael Wacha are available, among others, If I add another reliever, Paul Sewald is available. Should I still hold on?

Nicklaus Gaut

1:52

yeah, the inconsistency sucks, but I'd still rather him than the others

Fair or foul? (Keeper League but can only resign a player twice) Last week I traded Judge straight up for Strider. I cannot resign Judge since I have twice already, Strider is resignable. I'm also trying to spin off Strider for Bazzana who I am very high on. But if I don't, I figured I could at least get some pitching out of the deal.

Nicklaus Gaut

I get the thinking, but I would've aimed higher than Strider

Seriously considering picking up Kolek after his recent exploits; how high are you on him? And who would you recommend I drop to roster him between McLean, Keller, Wacha or Hancock? Thanks!

Nicklaus Gaut

I don't hate the pickup, but wouldn't want to drop any of those guys for him

12 team Rot League. Hitting categories are Avg, OPS, HR, RBI's, Steals and Runs. Dansby Swanson or Ha-seong Kim for rest of year or do I keep both.

Nicklaus Gaut

1:55

Swanson, by a lot

In a 16 man league with 30 man rosters. Does the flux of injuries to both Hernandez create a good stash opportunity for other players or is it not likely to yield anything of note.

Nicklaus Gaut

1:57

ehh, not much valuabler for fantasy

1:58

by that, I mean I think the most useful bats will be chopping up the playing time too much to be useful

Dodgers

1:58

Which Dodger should I be eying to target who is likely to be part of a trade package opening second half playtime?

Rushing/Freeland

Freeland if it's OBP
