Yeah playing time and overall time in the bigs are both question marks, but he can't do much worse than Nori Aoki.
The kid in my league who stays picking up call-ups the minute news breaks since last season grabbed Fisher this morning
Rich Hill is getting cut as soon as I find someone to take his place. Tired of waiting for him to get it together. Dude hasn't thrown a QS all season. And it seems like every one of his starts is on the brink of disaster. Disaster struck today .
I had 7 W's but only 4 QS's . Darvish and Rich Hill really killed my ERA this week too. My opponent pulled some slick **** and traded for Degrom on Saturday afternoon so he got to start him yesterday. Stole him the win in K's and ERA. I would've beaten him 8-4 but instead we tied 6-6. He's the first place team in my division and has the best overall record in the league too. Would've been nice to beat him .
Figures I versed the first place team in the opposing division and this week I play my divisions leader
Drop Suarez for Barreto? Suarez doesn't really play for me. Think I'd rather have the upside of Barreto.
Randomly grabbed Barreto on Monday. Started him today too . ^ Are you talking Eugenio Suarez? I have him too but he's cooled down considerably since his hot start. I'd probably grab Barreto over him. They don't play the same position though unless you'll be using him in your UTIL spot.
Grab Michael Taylor if he's still available in your leagues. Power/speed guy and he's been raking over the past few weeks. Keon Broxton too. Somehow he's only owned in 40% of ESPN leagues.
My OF is crowded as it is. Bryant (eligibility), JBJ, Gardner, Inciarte, Mazara, Haniger who would I drop?
Dropped Beltran for Taylor a few days ago Added Starling Marte today, too. Might be a little early but I needed to have him.
Those are all good options. Not sure who I would get rid of. I wouldn't be against dropping Mazara, JBJ or Haniger though. Good move on grabbing Marte. Now is right around the time to be grabbing him imo. The dude in my league who drafted him has held on to him all season .
Bryant said he's feeling tons better hoping to avoid the DL. Trea Turner fractured wrist tonight HBP :x
My Jacob Faria for his Michael Brantley? I'm stacked at pitcher (Kersh, Stras, Darvish, McCullers, + more) and can use some help with hitting. I batted under .200 the past two weeks . Although I do have Trout coming off of the DL soon.
In need of a closer now that Oh lost his hold on the job. Who do you guys like off of free agents: Alex Colome AJ Ramos Justin Wilson Addison Reed Brandon Maurer
Oh no longer the closer?? Not officially now that I'm reading. What SP should I target for Machado? I just put him on the block.
Rosenthal hasn't been better than Oh so it's probably an Edwin Diaz situation. Oh will pitch the 7th/8th to get his mind right for a couple weeks then he'll be back. I traded Machado & Tanaka for Strasburg & Urena a few days ago. Don't know how I feel about it yet but I needed a reliable pitcher badly. Stroman has been good but he's no on Strasburg's level.
Tough. Wilson and Ramos would be at the top of my list but they're both trade candidates and who knows if they'll end up as closers on their new teams. Maurer is a solid if unspectacular option though. There's been rumblings of Jeurys Familia returning in early August which would put a damper on Reed's value. Colome seems to always get rocked . You might be able to get a top-10ish guy just on name value alone but most people will be trying to buy him low. Someone like Lance McCullers would be a nice grab imo. I have McCullers but wouldn't trade him for Machado at this point, but I feel like it wouldn't be a disrespectful offer if it came my way .
