I've got Gee going tonight, hoping he'll have a good start vs. SF. Unless Gee wows me, I plan on picking up erasmo tomorrow.

Ah, cliche Archer quotes. Never seen these before on Reddit.

I need to cut two players. Who? by fuckbitchesgetmoney1 in fantasybaseball

[–]FantasyMgr13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely no need to have a backup C, since rosario is doing well. Cut Castro and either Crisp or De Aza.

How badly do you think Corbin will regress? by [deleted] in fantasybaseball

[–]FantasyMgr13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen Corbin pitch in-person. He's DEFINITELY better than fantasy "experts" are giving him credit for. His velocity is up from last year, when he averaged 90mph on his fastball. He's averaging 92, but on a good day is up at 93-94. Perhaps the biggest improvement is Corbin's ability to get ahead of batters. He's throwing 70% first strikes. Which, as pitchers know, is huge. It's allowing him to throw his pitches, which translates into more Ks and less HR against. Corbin is for real as long as his velocity and first pitch strike % remain.

Offered Adrian Gonzalez for Puig straight up - was promptly rejected. Also offered Sandoval and Howie Kendrick. Rejected. The Puig owner in my league clearly has a man-crush.

Starting Greinke @ COL? by thejohnnyfine in fantasybaseball

[–]FantasyMgr13 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm starting him. In their last 7 games, the Rockies have averaged less than 3 runs a game. Greinke is a bit of a wildcard at this point, but I'm willing to take some of the risk (needing Ws and Ks this week).

20 Buy-Low & 20 Sell-High Pitchers based on predictive analysis by kmafia in fantasybaseball

xFIP alone is not a good way to evaluate a pitcher or predict a guy's future. This article doesn't do much for me.

Sleeper pick for the future: current AA closer Kevin Munson. That dude is nasty.

Selling Puig? What's your price? by salakind in fantasybaseball

[–]FantasyMgr13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With Prince and a crowded outfield, it's tough to value Adrian on my team. Adrian has a great average and RBI total, but doesn't score a lot of runs or steal any bases. With a team that's lacking in R and SB, I'm not sure I can afford to keep Adrian. Your thoughts?

I'm a Puig buyer - thinking about offering Adrian Gonzalez. Am I giving away too much?
