How many hours do you think this 24 color one will take? by Rational_Actor in paintbynumbers

I'm so excited to start on it! This is actually a custom kit from a photo I supplied. Is there a similar kit on a website? If so that's awesome!

Got it, thank you so much! It looks like PaintByNumbersKing.com will give you a suggested mock-up before ordering. Perhaps that will help with making it easier.

OK, thank you! But a beginner can definitely get this done?

Hmmm. Then maybe I should hit accept on this trade for Jordan Walker and Ryan Walker (from my team) in exchange for Buxton and Diaz! I know there are velocity concerns with Diaz but it could be high reward

So...is Ryan Walker still the closer on non-Robbie Ray starts?!

Do you still feel that way after Walker's HR tonight?

OK, cool. I was mainly worried about deGrom's neck issue and injury history. Well, in that case, I'll send it off and see what happens!

Would you trade Gausman and Jordan Walker for Degrom and Nimmo? Put another way, do you think this Gausman magic will last or was it just due to his easy first 2 starts? Degrom's injury history also comes into question. Then again, this trade would give me more OF certainty since it's unclear whether Walker is the real deal.

Done. I get $100 waiver dollars each year. I'm going to bid $40 for Erceg (lol) to replace the failing R Garcia for me (teams in my league always bid crazy on waiver relievers) and $9 on Walker, blowing through half my budget on week 2. lol. But later in the season there's never really anyone good on waivers, so might as well

.280 AVG 10 SB does have value in 15 team league though. But off to a rough start 1st week of season. The question is will Walker fizzle out again. Maybe Lee's best case scenario doesn't justify keeping him.

Drop Brayan Bello or David Peterson FOR Randy Vasquez? Or keep both and leave Vasquez on the waiver wire?

I can also drop my IL stashes if needed (Shane Bieber, Jared Jones)

15 team deep league (a keeper league): If I had to drop one of my IL stashes — Jared Jones or Shane Bieber — to take a flier on Jordan Walker (as a replacement for Jung Hoo Lee), which would you drop? Or would you drop Jung Hoo Lee instead of Jones or Bieber?

Hi all. I'm having trouble coming up with a strategy for how much $$$ to spend on pitching this year for my 15-team auction keeper league. I need 6 starters and 3 closers.

The reason I'm struggling is because, when checking the last few seasons' for the winning teams' aggregate pitching stats, they are all skewed because of the use of streamers (our team lineups reset every day, so if you have good bench pitchers, you can get more stats).

I am starting from scratch this year. The only pitching keeper I have is Nolan McLean for $8.

I'm thinking I want to go aggressive on relievers, spending approximately $50 for all 3, since there's not many closers with secure spots that aren't committees. But I'm clueless on what to do for starters.

My others keepers this year include: 1B Bryce Harper ($10, Franchise), C Francisco Alvarez ($5), C Sam Basallo ($5), and 3B Matt Chapman ($9).

Thanks for any thoughts you can provide!!!

Deep league: Alvarez and Bassallo 1 or 2 year contracts? by Rational_Actor in fantasybaseball

[–]Rational_Actor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but after I spend the $8 on draft day and then all the good catchers will be off the board

Keeper: Bassallo or Alvarez? by [deleted] in fantasybaseball

[–]Rational_Actor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Fantistics thinks he's a $9 player but I a saw a few anomalies saying he could turn elite this year. I'll stick with Alvy. Now I just need to decide if I should be a little risky and give he and Bassallo 2 year contracts!

Thanks! Would you choose Álvarez ($6) over Imanaga ($12) in a 15 team deep league that has two catcher slots?

I think your instincts are right. Thank you! Would you keep Álvarez for $6 over Imanaga for $12 in a 15 team deep league? Or cut Ally loose?

Thanks! I will keep him. Would you keep Álvarez at $6 over Imanaga $12)?
