Starting Pitcher Chart – September 9th, 2024

Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports

I’m putting this together pretty early on Sunday because I’m watching my niece and won’t be on the computer as much for Sunday afternoon/evening. If something does change, don’t hesitate to let me know if the comments and I’ll give my thoughts on the new guy. It’s a brutal board to start the week after Skenes so be very careful out there!

Sunday Night Waiver Wire & FAAB Chat

7:31
Jeff Zimmerman: Welcome.

7:32
Jeff Zimmerman: Here are the winning bids in the three 15-team Tout Wars leagues. One note. The bids are higher than expected because several teams got extra FAAB on the first of the month do to some league rules.

7:33
Jeff Zimmerman:

7:33
Yankee E: After Arrighetti’s performance this week, go with him, Schwellenbach, or an SP/RP reliever (Puk) for fifth SP spot in H2H playoffs?

7:33
Jeff Zimmerman: I’d lean Schwellenbach

7:33
Yankee E: Trusting Chad Green at this point.  Likely have to shift to a holds reliever in an H2H league where both are separate categories.

FAAB & Waiver Wire Report (Week 24)

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 23)

While the NFBC Main Event garners most of the attention, there are a handful of leagues with even a larger entry fee ($2.5K to $15K). They were originally named “High Stakes Leagues” and there are ten of them. With so much money on the line, these fantasy managers try to gain any advantage. 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.

Starting Pitcher Chart – September 6th, 2024

Ken Blaze-USA TODAY Sports

Solid board for Friday with plenty of opportunities at every level. As always, there is risk which is heightened in September as we have less time to undo a dud, but we can’t just sit on our hands being afraid of a dud if we are chasing points in the standings. Speaking of risk, I just don’t see myself starting Luis Gil anywhere right now. He’s fresh off the IL and hasn’t been pitching that well for some time. I’m very thankful for what he gave us this season and I’ll happily revisit in 2025, but I’m OK cutting him for the remainder of 2024.

Let me know if you have questions about anyone else.

Starting Pitcher Chart – September 5th, 2024

Raymond Carlin III-USA TODAY Sports

Drop a comment if you have a question about any of the pitchers. It’s a relatively straightforward board with a good number of 3-x’s and then some Hail Mary 1-x’s.

An earlier version accidentally had Suárez facing TOR with just a 2-x reco. With his proper matchup at MIA loaded in, I moved him to the 3-x group.
