Recommendations for Roto 5×5 Leagues
Brandon Pfaadt has a 15.5% SwStr so far along with a 2.55 SIERA (but a 387 BABIP). I trust him in 12s to do well against STL. I actually feel more confident in Pfaadt than Severino against KC after seeing how they destroyed Hunter Brown today.
Michael King against LAD is one I don’t feel confident in for 12s. I like the pitcher but dread the matchup.
Yeah I get behind that pushing Pfaadt up and Severino down. KC does scare me. I’m still finding some starts for Sevvy, but maybe just in 15s or deeper
My question is about Hunter Brown and is less of a question than a deep and abiding sadness.
So brutal. I want him to be good, but it’s a nightmare right now. Easy sit next week v. ATL and we can assess from there. I’m still trying to avoid any cuts, but in 10s, I can understand it
Is the Sanchize this high because of the matchup or is there something that has you bought in?
I’m a huge fan of Sanchez!
Any Gausman health concerns?
I was uneasy on him coming into the season and while 5.7 IP isn’t nearly enough to declare I was right to be, I’m certainly not encouraged the other way, either.
I have to sit one of these SP this weekend – which should I bench? Tyler Wells vs MIL, Blanco vs TEX, Morton @ MIA, or Snell @ TB
Mannnn, I know he’s coming off 2 BEAUTIFUL outings, but I wonder if we try to time a potential Blanco dud w/his 2nd straight outing v. TEX. I think it’s him or Wells.
Thanks for your help! Nasty Nestor this weekend @CLE or James Paxton vs. SDP?
And then amongst the slim pickens, how would you rank these horrible streamers?: Butto (NYM) vs. KCR, Wood (OAK) vs. WSH, Tyler Alexander (TBR) vs. SFG, Soroka (CHW) vs. CIN, or Freeland (COL) @ TOR
Ahh that’s very tough on the 2 lefties. I’m inclined to go Paxton between those 2, but it’s a true coinflip for me.
I’m not super keen on running any of these SPs, let me be clear, but ranking them as you requested:
Wood, Butto, Freeland, Soroka, Alexander
Are you starting Darvish against the D Dogs
I am, yes
