Adams was next on my list. Nice pick, Nos.

Thanks Stone, i'm kinda surprised both of the guys I took were still available, Wood is a good pitcher, he's a lefty and can spot start or pitch out of the pen.

 

[molsaniceman]

on the team page my team is missing Gattis

 

[Darkstone42]

Most of the rest of my list I'm surprised no one has taken yet. Hopefully, the best of them at the least fall to me.

And Chris Carter, I will get them added right now, apologies...

 

[Ritzarmy]

Waiting on EHB and he has been PM'd.

 

[Nosferatu]

I'm leaving work, see y'all in a bit...

 

[da55bums]

Thanks on Arenado, have him on both my league teams but same with Gomes/Vogt/Hamilton/Hahn/Altuva...our 30 team league is contracts too..

I think most everyone forgets.....this is only an 8 team draft.......this is cake to my 14 and 30 team fantasy leagues.

There will be a lot of good players left on the table.

so many factors in different leagues and knowing what your weak and strong in...if a 5x5 league or Roto..H2H

I don't think you made out....on the surface..

Crisp may be more valuable than Adrian, but depends on replacements
Melancon- great but still just a closer
Hamel/Peralta- in roto maybe you need more wins and your era/whip is already great

just tell me..

who replaces Crisp
who does Adrian take over for
what SP do you have to sit now, you got 2 gave up 1
and what RP are you going to sit now.

Raw value, I think you got hosed. Downgrading from Kershaw, Morton, and Burnett to Hamels and Peralta is a huge step back. Gonzalez is having a good season, but so is Crisp, so that's about a wash (though it's easier to find a 1B who hits like Gonzalez than a CF who hits like Crispy, so that's even a step back), and Melancon, while an excellent reliever, does not come close to making up the lost value in the other two comparisons.

Its a head to head league. Crisp has been on my bench for months and I have

C- Santana
1B- Abreu
2B- Pedroia
SS- Desmond
3B-Donaldson
OF-Pence
OF-Gordon
OF-Moss
UTL-Baez
UTL-LaRoche
Bench: Morse and Crisp

So Gonzalez will be now in at UTL. I wont have to sit any pitchers. I start pitchers when they play and sit them when they don't since its by weekly pts in head to head. Same with RP I wont have to sit anyone.

 

[da55bums]

sorry, guess you gave up more SPs..

.I wouldn't have Morton in a 30 team league, didn't even acknowledge him.

AJ, I would as a last resort, no keeper and he is a gamble every year he has been in the league.

Isn't it better to have pitchers sitting on off days so you can maximize innings?

Crisp has been hurt off and on for past few months and I cant ever rely on him playing. Pitchers earn a lot of points in his league. Yes I am giving up the best SP in the game (I also have King Felix) but I am getting 3 pitchers whose pts will be more then the 3 I gave up per week. Burnet and Morton keep losing points for me each week.

Baez? from the Cubs with like 14 abs...you were running Morse for him instead of Crisp, I presume

and your staff is?

 

[Ritzarmy]

There isn't a max limit on innings pitched other then each week you have to have a 20innings pitched but no penalty at end of season if you go over a certain total innings pitched.

Explain please your statement. Was I sitting Morse for Baez, yes because he has been hot lately. I go back in forth with the 2 guys.

 

[Nosferatu]

Robin Williams Dead!

 

[da55bums]

Explain please your statement. Was I sitting Morse for Baez, yes because he has been hot lately. I go back in forth with the 2 guys.

I haven't been paying attention to Baez really, how many ABs does he have? I might have looked him up under the last 7 or 14 days of stats, now that I think about it.

Crisp had to outscored them both before he got hurt, I have had Crisp for the last 2 months so I know what your talking about...but when you trade for a guy its for the next 2 months...I am keeping him.

since most was pitching in the deal, got to know who your staff was before the deal.
