By the time this one is over, the top 3 can all be surprises. That is if it is ever over. Sleeting right now.
Can I be like some of these whiny baseball fans??? How come NASCAR does not prepare for weather early in the season and not have their races in domed stadiums!!!!
And as I said, now that I am in 1st, I will tumble quickly. I had 12 too and he gets wrecked by a couple of idiots????
Andujar has started to make good contact as of late and has ample power. In addition, terrific arm for a 3B. One would assume Andujar would get at least another week or so to prove himself before Torres would be called up to replace him. 2B is another story, as that is a clear upgrade there and most likely his near term position. Not to mention, making a change this week would not be a wise move for the Yankees, as the Super 2 Date is always an estimate, and has been off by as many as 8 days I believe. Why risk making the wrong call when it is just another week?
LOL! I miss my playoff hockey, but hope to be back next year! Winnipeg Fan this post season for Big Dustin!
Yep, which is great for me! Worst case he gets -1, -7 if Phillies hold on.
Looking good so far. Forgot one of my Pitchers is Ohtani tmrw. Fingers crossed that he shines again. First time I have him in lineup.
Now, they need to hold onto the lead and get a -6 for the L for Archer!
Argh, Sox V Twins already postponed for tmrw. I need Philly to light up Archer tonight and Noah to get pushed from tmrw!
LOL! I could take that. Move Noah to Monday and I will be happy! He is always a danger of putting up 30 pts in one game and I may not be able to counter that this week.
LOL! Waited for a total meltdown in the young Atl bullpen to chime in. Regardless, the Cubs are already looking like their window is closing. Pitching is bad and Maddon proving he was just lucky one year, but is back to his over rated self.
How is the weather in NY? Seems like more games are starting to be postponed. A NYM postponement would be nice, as I am playing someone that has Noah going tmrw, Familia as his closer and Bruce as 1B!
What makes me think Andujar will break out of it big time once he settles in is his decent KO Rate. Struggling rookies rarely if ever KO less than 20% of the time. He has been making better contact as of late as well. With Hicks back, I can put Andujar back on the bench, but think I need to hold him for a bit to see how things shake out. Was considering dropping either him or Mejia for Hays or Fowler as one of both should be up soon and I could use OF help, but now with Moran who can play 1B and J. Martinez and Hoskins both OF eligible, not sure I have that much of a need for an OF flier. Might be time to sit on my hands. The only other really big decision to make would be do I hold King Felix, or try to get a breakout SP? Think I have to sit on my hands there for at least another start or two to be sure about Felix before I let him go.
Now that Lopez has been given his start back assuming MN v Chicago is a go tomorrow, I may be down a bunch of player games, but am ties with my opponent for the week while having five starts to his two left to go.
LOL! I just found out that my brother with the first pick this week is grabbing Torres, so aggravated. Pretty sure the other 7 picking in front of me were going another direction for an immediate fix for next week(No way Torres is coming up for at least a couple more weeks IMHO). My bro has a lineup full of DL players and probably will not be able to field a full team next week, but decided since someone let Torres go and he has at least a week or so before players other than Andrus start coming back, punting next week??? Darn it! Now, I have to decide if I want to make any moves, or stand pat. Being towards the top of the league, my waiver priority is going to be bad for the foreseeable future, so need to play ahead. That said, sometimes the best moves are no moves.
Torres! Corrected. Not sure what I was typing there!
The Horror! Atlanta is making the Cubs look like the rebuilding team at Wrigley today!
So, you think Torres is coming up to replace Andujar at 3B, or to play 2B? Seems like Andujar is on the verge of settling in at the MLB Level, looking better by the day.
THE WEATHER IS KILLING ME!!!!! Three White Sox plus SP Lopez and Three Yankees plus Chapman all in my lineup this week vs my opponent who between Chi, MN, Det and NY only has Dozier??? Went from what looked like a Win walking away on Th and possibly highest score in league to date this year, I am not fighting for my life.
18-12-2 please
I did hold Andujar instead of Frazier, as I think he has a huge upside, but might have to send him back to the bench now that Hicks is back. Although, he got a double tonight.
I have not paid attention since dropping him. May have been a little higher than last year. Still not a great Fantasy player due to his streakiness, although with this week, you wish you had him in your lineup, just as much as his goose egg weeks you wish you did not! But, he will definitely help the Mets with his all around play and leadership.
The thing about Todd is he is far too streaky for fantasy purposes! If you do not guess the right week, you could get a goose egg, but if you guess the right one, could be a monster. Better having a consistent player. As for his play on the field and value to the team, but great! Very valuable as a real baseball player.
Yankees would be stupid to bring up Torres immediately, as Super 2 is an estimated date. If could end up 7-10 days later. They get Hicks back this weekend, so wait until at least next weekend to be sure. Not to mention, he missed the 2nd half of last season so make sure he is fully entrenched.
On a personal note, someone in our league was forced to drop him last week and I have 8th priority due to standing to start this week this Sunday. Most of the teams in front of me have injuries and other concerns to take care of, rather than stashing a player with their first pick and two of the teams are habitual pitcher flippers always looking to flip middling pitchers for other middling pitchers with two starts. As long as the Yankees do not call him up, I have a decent chance to grab him. Two of the teams I am sure would go for him are after me, so fingers crossed.
LOL! Cannot believe any team would be stupid enough to get in an all out brawls with the monsters the Yankees have! Stanton could break Betts in half over his knee!
Bad Blood exploding!
I saw that grab at 1B.
Andujar is not cutting it for me, but not ready to drop him. Someone did drop Torres out of necessity this week and I have 8th Priority. Think I have to try to grab him!
Nights like tonight are exactly why I went all in on my bidding for Sanchez!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For those of you outside of Chicago that may not heard about the legend of the Sodfather Roger Bossard, check out Chicago today! Cubs game called and field is an absolute mess after close to two inches of snow last night. Comiskey may have actually been hit with a little more than Wrigley, but the field is looking beautiful and sure looks like the Sox Game will go on as planned! The White Sox have been blessed to have this magician for over 4 decades!
Nope, odds are that during triple bonus week, all three of my drivers will crash out before even the first segment is done!
I have the lease somehow, but with the triple bonus coming and 13 people within 100 points, I fear my lead will be short lived.
From what I can tell, Andujar will be the everyday 3B, even when he comes back? If so, I may put him in this week. Not sure I can trust Happ as long as Uncle Joe will not give him a chance to break out?
WOW! was sure I was in for a bad day when I saw Truex go down! Forgot just about everyone else had him too!
Any word on Hicks? I think I want to get Happ out of the lineup with his part time gig so far, so could put in either Andujar, or Hicks to fill his spot. Bought myself flexibility with C. Moran last night. While he is playing 3rd base for Pitt, he qualifies at 1st, so I can move him there, and put Hoskins in OF if I want Andujar in lineup.
WOW! Philly putting up a huge crooked number tonight!
You know he will eventually break out and when he does, it should be a monster run!
Thanks! Had not seen any updates other than Sanchez sitting out today. Wondering if Chapman would close today if needed? Hoping he does just to show he is ok.
Any word on Chapman and Sanchez?
Devers gets his first HR of season!
Yes, but hard to call it a rough patch. I call it just getting back in the swing of things and is why he needs more time in the minors. After the elbow, he went a long time without even playing. Needs time to get back on track.
