Jeff Zimmerman: I wish I knew

Roger: Austin Riley may have broken his hand. Max Muncy and Josh Jung are out there. Who would you grab? One caveat is that I already have Mookie and Teoscar. Is 3 Dodgers too many?

FAAB & Waiver Wire Report (Week 21)

In the article, I cover the players using CBS’s (about 40% or less initial roster rate) and Yahoo’s ADD/DROP rates. Both hosting sites have the option for daily and weekly waiver wire adds. CBS uses a weekly change while Yahoo looks at the last 24 hours. Yahoo is a great snapshot of right now while CBS ensures hot targets from early in the week aren’t missed. The players are ordered for redraft leagues by my rest-of-season preference grouped by starters, relievers, and hitters. Read the rest of this entry »


Big Kid Adds (Week 20)

Most of the time, these managers will be a week or two ahead of everyone else on their adds. Here are the players and some information on the ones added in five or more leagues.

Jeff Zimmerman: Yes

Daprez: Thank you for doing these chats! I’m in a 6×6 roto with Betts, Casas and Edman returning. Could you rank these guys in order of droppability? Toglia, Mayo, C. Doval, Lux, J. Dominguez & India. Or do I release Edman?

Turn Two: Looking towards next year in an NL Only keeper league.. better shot at being a future closer Kopech or Pearson (both or neither?)? Both seem to have +Stuff

7:32
Jeff Zimmerman: Neither IMO. Wait and some closer situations will clear up. Also, look for closers at the end of their contract where someone else will need to step in.

7:32
Vic: In a 15 Tm Mixed would you drop Tyler Phillips for Faucher, Littell or Thompson?
