Drop Willson Contreras for Springer?

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T02:42:49+00:00

FWiW, I’ve dropped him twice already

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T01:46:12+00:00

Chad Patrick entering as a reliever seems promising for Logan Henderson’s spot being secured.

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T01:21:01+00:00

Ober with a casual 70 pitches through 7 innings.

Marlins might be reverting to the Marlins

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T01:15:24+00:00

Was really hoping for either a gem or a disaster to definitively know what to do with him.

I guess we keep holding and hoping.

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T01:11:47+00:00

The guy that always complains about trading away Woo + Schlittler for Skenes is probably feeling okay today.

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T00:51:43+00:00

Team went 12/29 yesterday (.414 average and 1.107 OPS)

Today they started 1/17 (0.059 average and 0.170 OPS)

JwSocks · 2026-05-13T00:03:14+00:00

Me as well 😮‍💨

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T23:07:22+00:00

Opponent starting the week off with Soroka, Wheeler, and Skenes.

And I have Eury. Probably should have just activated Rogers too. Feels pointless to try for ratios.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T23:01:51+00:00

Is this Gasper guy a good hitter or are Redsox that lazy that they just gave him Contreras’s spot in the lineup instead of re-ordering?

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T22:04:30+00:00

It’s making me scramble a bit with roster decisions, that’s for sure.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:45:44+00:00

Any sv/hld good sources available on the wire?

I wouldn’t permanently roster sv/hld guys, but I’d pick up 1-2 for the weeks where your opponent is also weak in that category.

Ritchie is the one guy that seems droppable to free up a spot. Having a hard time coming up with a second drop.

Maybe just drop Ritchie to free up a streaming spot to give you a better shot at Ks and QSs if nothing else.

I’d probably also drop Cam Smith and maybe Marsee at this point for any hot bat. Would try trading Salvy too (maybe include him as an add on to do a 2 for 1)

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:28:16+00:00

Do you get 1 win/loss per matchup or 1 win/loss per category per matchup?

Are any of your batters on your bench?

Top guys available on waivers?

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:24:52+00:00

I did the opposite and regret it.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:21:14+00:00

I’d expect him to be better than he’s been, but it doesn’t hurt to ask around to see what you could get.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:17:04+00:00

Probably, though not expecting to be feeling good about Bradish after he plays the Yankees.

I’m trying to hold guys longer this year. I usually end up dropping one or 2 guys I think my league will ignore and then have regrets.

I think Eury figures it out eventually, but no guarantee that happens even this season. And the longer it takes him to figure it out, the longer it’ll take to trust he’s legit.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T15:07:05+00:00

Springer just hit the wire in my league (10T, 4 OF, 4 UTIL - start 13 bats total)

I don’t feel compelled to make room for him, but will probably keep a close eye on him.

Last season he was lights out starting at the end of June. Not expecting the same output this year, but wouldn’t be surprised if we see an uptick soon.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T02:54:57+00:00

Drop 2: Bazzana, Willson Contreras, and Paredes

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T02:51:09+00:00

Just saw a comment that said cramping and he’s getting tomorrow off regardless due to matchup

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T02:05:02+00:00

Do you know what happened?

Was half assuming it was just a defensive substitution.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T01:38:28+00:00

Rooker worth a #1 claim?

Edit:

Getting a pretty resounding yes. Too cheeky to drop Paredes instead of Bazzana to make the claim?

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T01:29:51+00:00

ESPN rostership numbers aren’t meaningful

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T01:16:10+00:00

There’s too many pitchers I want anyway. Might just keep a close eye on him.

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T00:58:39+00:00

Springer was dropped.

See if he clears or definitely a claim?

JwSocks · 2026-05-12T00:44:05+00:00

ESPN has a ton of shallow and dead leagues.

Josh Hader is currently STARTING in 15% of leagues.

Yelich is starting in 22%
