Looks like I drafted a bad team of hitters

Carpenter is not really a 1b, that was a bad pick on my part. I did not want Votto. Bregman is not there yet. Benintendi is up and down. Bogaerts is off to a poor start. Only solid picks were Dozier, Springer, Sano.

I'm just saying they are starting out awful.

I agree though, that Carpenter used at 1B is a mistake, and he is over rated regardless.

And I think that's my downfall. If I want to get a good 1b I may have to give up a pitcher. And honestly it could be the right time to deal MadBum.

Start Carpenter at second after you trade Dozier for a first baseman.

Bum won't get you fair value while he's out with a shoulder injury.

I'm sitting Springer this week.

Aside from homers he's doing very little and hurt his leg.

I didn't bench Springer. I benched Bregman instead to be able to play all the OFs. I saw Bregman's stats are more underwhelming for his position and the matchups this week told me to sit him.

Now in this league if your hitters disappoint, then you have to drop them. I however had to drop Hill for Shaw, who I forgot to start over Carpenter this week. The reason I dropped Hill is because he's hurt and out until May. I wanted to drop Melancon but felt he was not droppable.

So what I need to do is trade Carpenter or Davis. I am not trading Dozier, he's been a valuable asset to me in fantasy. And hopefully I can get Hill back.

I lost by four points last week to someone whose pitching was awful.

Ahh the joys of fantasy baseball..

Week 1 I lost to a guy who's players had the highest totals for the week... Then my 1st win I was down 30 points heading into the final day... Actually won by 16 (if I'm not mistaken)

Carpenter is turning things around.. Andrew and Xander are doing ok right now so things are looking slightly better than they did when you started this

He's supposed to be back next week. I don't regret that trade yet.
