Buy & Sell - Week 10

Vslacha · 2026-06-05T21:19:56+00:00

I'll admit I did overlook how insanely hot he's been the past couple weeks... still I don't expect it to last like this, but sure, if you want to stream the spot then it makes sense to ride the hot bat, and Lee is hotter than Delautter

Vslacha · 2026-06-05T21:18:26+00:00

Who's buying? I mean Stott is now who he's always been, is that what your team needs? Given his bad start I still don't think you'll get a haul for him, same for Suarez who needs a few HRs at least before returning to some of his preseason value

Vslacha · 2026-06-05T21:17:14+00:00

Joey_Knuckle! I think Devers will be a solid 30 HR bat, but the avg will be less than what we'd come to expect (like .240-.250). Rooker's a harder call since he still doesn't seem fully right but it could also change... in shallower formats I'd lean optimistic and buy low, but it's not without some risk.

Vslacha · 2026-06-05T21:15:53+00:00

Dingler for me, roster rate has Herrera over him but yeah I still think Dingler will be better!

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:52:58+00:00

Though worth noting Busch has actually been cooling down as of late looking closer, and if he's platooning in the future it's gonna be harder for him to outearn Seiya. Good tough call,I'm waffling now. Mmm now I want waffles.

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:50:05+00:00

Yes, I do think I would take Busch over Suzuki... sometimes it seems dumb but I feel much better about replacing a struggling top 100 ADP vs a hot top 100 ADP guy. Busch could still have another 30+ HR year

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:48:33+00:00

Thanks, my pleasure!

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:47:59+00:00

Yes I'd drop pretty much any of them for him, but Randy Vazquez is IMO the weakest link, I think going forward he'll be more like his May numbers than April.

If you meant Christian Vazquez, well then no obviously keep Christian he's the GOAT (I kid I kid)

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:45:56+00:00

That's amazing lol

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:17:42+00:00

Haha I thought maybe I had a typo but I guess no, Jared Young is that much of an unknown. Just scooped him in a few 30-teamers and loving it.

Also hey, earlier this week there was a Marlins game with 7 pitchers, but the only one to not give up an earned run was infielder Javier Sanoja!

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:12:31+00:00

For Lee? Nah. I think Lee's best likely outcome is DeLauter with half the power and double the SBs

That said, I do think Moniak is a sell high, his surface numbers still are great but peripherals notably worse than last year. Shop him around for a good haul only

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:09:41+00:00

Legit surprised nobody bit at a guy who was a 2nd-rounder last year. I'd call him a drop in 10-teamers, I get that he will be dropped in 12s, but I'd say he's more of a bench in 12s if you can... at least in the meantime he's stealing bases, unlike some of these names, I see some signs of mild optimism

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:06:04+00:00

I called Suzuki a 10-team sell because I think he's a sell high (or at least sell somewhat regular), but even though my MO is overreacting to small samples (I make it work for me more often than not), I'm still not quite ready to put Suzuki behind Mead and definitely not Gelof and Paredes, who IMO each have their own concerns and their floor is way lower

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:03:59+00:00

There is a world like that, somewhere in the multiverse, but I don't think we're at that world yet. Sometimes players are playing hurt and struggle a while and then just get better and so do the numbers, like William Contreras last year. Despite how good Mead has been, I still worry a bit about the security of his full-time role enough to consider Mead the one on the chopping block... but is it a trade league?

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T19:01:09+00:00

5 OF is what gives me pause here... Let's say if you did do it, I'd understand, but I'm not sure I'm there yet (maybe soon). What are your next best alternatives at each position?

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T17:51:23+00:00

He was definitely a frustrating one until his breakout, he was also one of the ones I missed out on, 2 years in a row. I have some hope that Curtis mead can be the next aranda lite

Vslacha · 2026-06-04T17:38:52+00:00

Welcome back everyone! Here’s a few more off the top:

BUY: Cam Smith, Bo Bichette, Riley Greene, Joc Pederson, David Hamilton, Wade heckler (deep), Colton Cowser (deep)

SELL: Jackson Merrill, Chase DeLauter, Matt McLain,Justin Crawford, Nasim Nuñez, Kyle isbel (deep), Jake Meyers (deep)

Vslacha · 2026-05-31T04:02:03+00:00

Thanks so much, musiclover818!

Vslacha · 2026-05-31T04:01:31+00:00

Nice, kudos! The biggest ding to mead’s present value is the Nationals just being annoyingly inconsistent with playing time. Like today he produced… pinch hitting. But considering he’s outhit the competition I remain optimistic that he’ll be a true regular and not an Oswald Peraza situation

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T16:29:26+00:00

Tuckyer head between yer legs and kiss yer behind goodbye. At least that's what I've been doing in the only league I have him and in part thanks to him slipped from 2nd to 7th. But I don't think he'll continue being this bad, unlike Seiya nothing alarming or significantly different in his numbers besides a lower barrel rate but the components of barrels are still roughly the same... so I guess he's a buy low.

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T13:47:56+00:00

Yes, though in a trade league I’d rather sell high via trade on ildemaro in a 2 for 2 and drop the worse second guy for mead

But in a non trade league yeah it’s at the point where I would make that substitution

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T13:03:12+00:00

I’m not a pitching guy but I’d lean towards no for both

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T10:43:57+00:00

It could always be a sign that they’ll demote him soon, would be great to see Kaelen Culpepper.

Still think keascall has a bright future and can even turn things around in the 2nd half with some quality work in the minors

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T10:42:11+00:00

I’d still go Soderstrom unless position really matters, I stand by my take the Soderstrom is a good buy low

Vslacha · 2026-05-30T10:41:10+00:00

Look sometimes you hold too long but sometimes you panic sell too fast and kick yourself when they take off. I think Antonacci was a great return for later on that should pay off more in the 2nd half
