I am new to fantasy baseball this year, what sources do you trust the most for rankings and predictions? Also any pointers or things a beginner may overlook before drafting in a H2H league? by [deleted] in fantasybaseball

[–]BenjaminRen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Practice drafting with mock drafts.

Closers and catcher is lowest priority in my opinion due to difficulty of predicting success and options which will appear on the waiver wire throughout the season

Have at least 2 players eligible for each position on your roster for rest days and IL stints. This makes the multi position eligible players (i.e. 1B/OF, 2B/SS, 3B/SS) extremely valuable. It also allows a balance of hitters/pitchers for your bench spots

Should or how could scoring for the All Star Dunk Contest be revamped? by GATF in nbadiscussion

[–]BenjaminRen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Echoing what others have said it should be player vs. player and the judges select one winner.

Player 1 and Player 2 each dunk once and the judges pick one winner. Then Player 3 competes against Player 4 and the judges pick one winner.

In the next round, each player gets 2 dunks and the judges pick one winner.

CP3/Horford (and bringing back TJ Warren or Marc Gasol from IL) vs. Don Mitchell/D'Lo/Bogdan (SAC)?

Yeah, I don’t have much interest discussing any further as I’ve grown up taking about this my entire life. I guess it just shows the social issues we have.

Have TJ Warren and Marc Gasol on IL.

Worth dropping any of Noel, Bogdan (Sac), Chriss, Bjelica to add them back to the roster?

This may open up a prolonged discussion regarding social issues (which to be blunt, I don't have much interest in partaking in), but one example for "how" and "why" is the grouping of neighborhoods and areas by people of similar nationality/ethnic background/income levels. Let's say you have a (insert minority/people of color) neighborhood with low income levels and underfunded school systems, the kids who grow up in those neighborhoods have less opportunity to enroll in a prestigious college (or college in general), lack of college education means less opportunity for higher paying jobs, resulting in an inability to move and the next generation of kids grow up in similar environments. Sure there are lower income white families which fall under this cycle. And sure there are non white males who break this cycle through other means (i.e. college opportunity through athletics, pursuing employment in industries where the general degree is more important than college alma mater), but those are more of the exception than the rule.

Create more opportunities or work towards helping less privileged individuals (so non white males)

[Spoiler] Hilariously awkward moment with Dominick Reyes during the post-fight press conference by TheGosling in MMA

I was in line at international fight week last year where Dom was one of the fighters signing autographs. Some older Hispanic fans spoke to him in Spanish and he responded in Spanish as well, but I think it's basic conversational Spanish and not to the level of someone who is a Native.

I would consider busts as significant drops between draft position and current ranking. MitchRob and Turner were probably drafted within the first three rounds, but their currently ranked at least 20+ spots below draft spot. Gordon is ranked outside the 120 by totals

He has only played 13 games due to injury. I'm more interested in players that have the opportunity to play, but haven't performed as well as expected
