No catcher plays a day game after a night game. Rosario plays against LHP. Ramos will have more PT. Unless Morneau goes down for an extended period.

And no, I wouldn't be scared of dropping Davis.

Justin morneu has a concussion. He may be out for a while and even if he comes back is now at a higher risk of losing more games. Rosario should be playing first a lot. So if he is on waivers this is the time to get him. I would rather drop Ramos since Rosario will play catcher for you. And you really don't need a catcher on the bench.

If I drop Ramos when Rosario loses PT again I'm without a starting catcher.

Not a smart move with Hamels, but until that he was bad on the road.

Springer is back. You can drop Pillar or Khris Davis

I dropped Davis. But as soon as I add Rosario he suddenly loses PT and not to Morneu. Hamilton should be back tomorrow. I am considering trading one of my pitchers for a extra hitter out of Cole, Cueto, Hamels, Strasburg, Wilson, and Kazmir. Not Wacha. Or until my hitting is healthy I'm considering trading for a great closer.

Bruce? Is he benchable until he turns it around?
Is Abreu come down to earth and won't go back up?
Is LaRoche now droppable?

Bench Bruce and you'll miss a huge week. But he is benchable.
Abreu will be alright.
Laroche is known for terrible slow starts...but yes, droppable depending (what size league again?)

And I'd be selling Strasburg to the highest bidder for sure!

Yeah what is Bruce's weaknesses? Who does he hit the best against? Not just southpaws and right handers but sinkers, fastballs.

Right now the white sox as a whole are awful.

I have offered Strasburg for Gomez in one proposal and for Dozier in another.

Dozier was accepted. Let's see if it makes the pass through.

Had a good win this week 12-4-4. Will make up 5 games in the division to be 4 games out of first. Dozier's big game yesterday, Hamilton doing what I expected in Texas, and Segura's return from the DL is helping to turn the hitting around.

It seems I can't put together back to back wins. Also I have too many undroppable players to pick up hot up and coming and the summer hitters. I'm getting too complacent and missing out on those big players like Bryant and Gallo. For it to be less focused on the pitching is fine but Ks, Ws, and BSs are what I'm really raking in. However I have streamed daily pitchers often to inflate those stats.

Also, I have four royals on the team, two white sox, and three nationals. There's less variety.

I'm considering trading Ramos. I just can't really figure out when he does not play. With my phone slow nowadays its not easy to get to the apps to find stuff out.

Also, I don't have enough spread out teams' reps. I have four royals, two white sox, three nats(four if count Lobaton), and two twins(bout to be 1 with Hicks hurt) and have one player each from Cleveland, Milwaukee, Houston, Cincinatti, and Detroit. Out of those, the ones worth dealing are Moustakas, Yunel, Ramos, and maybe LaRoche that I'd be willing to part with.

Can't see anyone paying much for Ramos. All catchers take days off (Sal Perez is a freak). Usually on Sundays or day games after night games.

baseballpress.com usually has the lineups one-two hours prior to game time.

And I think Hicks is on paternity or bereavement leave, not injured...could be wrong. Buxton is up now so it probably doesn't matter anyway.

Yup. I'm wrong. Hicks is DL'd.

Yeah I saw the DL last night. I added Brock Holt who was on FA. I was trying to get a oriole or brewer as those two have the most hitter friendly matchups of the week based on ESPN's forecaster but none of the OFs were either there or were in platoons that isn't predictable(unlike Rajai). I didn't get Buxton, he was on FA I just am not sure he is going to put his welcome stamp on the cards.

Also, benching LaRoche more has helped with increase in DPs. He doesn't get them much as a DH. But Holt plays multi-positions so that probably helps now.
