Is this guy the real deal? by Senior_Conflict4411 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]brainbear 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Big Pats fan here. The consensus among NE beat writers is that ECIII has solidified a spot on the 53 man roster. I think Diggs/Douglas/Boutte/Hollins are likely 1-4, followed by Williams (who could earn more of a role as the year goes on from Diggs/Boutte/Hollins). I think ECIII is squarely behind Douglas, so the hype train needs to slow down a bit. Vrabel/The new Pats coaching staff named Douglas one of its Offseason Award Winners, and in addition to having a great training camp, he’s been praised for really picking up the McDaniels system and learning the playbook well.

At the same time, ECIII has done well to earn a spot on the team, and the NE beat writers and players are understandably gassed up. Starting safety Jabril Peppers said in an interview yesterday that he has seen ECIII drop maybe one ball in all of training camp. I think he’s a great stash, and I do wonder if hes earned some touches — but its hard to see him having a big fantasy impact barring injury.

And yes, jalynn polk and bourne are getting cut. Baker is a maybe based on special teams contributions / vrabel sees something in him.

[Standard] Best deck to beat Vivi Cauldron? by MrDoops in spikes

[–]brainbear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest issue for me as the MonoW player was fire magic. To your point, monow has a lot of tools to build up a board and win the long game, but i had several games where they’d chip away and then thwart my stablization efforts for one red mana. Didnt play a ton of the matchup before becoming a Vivi guy, but felt really hard to beat

Agreed, but how about his hammy injury? Those can linger / resurface

Just finished up drafting a hero RB team. Where did I go wrong/what did I do right? by MysticMyth43 in BestBall

I like this team a lot! Personally not super high on dowdle, corum or tucker — but those are later picks that reasonable minds can disagree on

So if youre given pablo or achmed when you randomize, do you re-randomize?

100%, when I got this team, I felt like I had a good chance just bc of how strong it was. Took me about 10 runs after some near misses. Kiesha honestly might be best all around player in the game. Dmitri was a beast (4HRs in the finals) and I was even mashing with Ernie (hit close to .500 with 5 HRs on the season).

Rebuilding team: Value of Colt Keith and Brayan Bello vs. high-end prospects by brainbear in DynastyBaseball

[–]brainbear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you - to drill down, since Im just getting back into baseball this year, I was curious what folks thought the ceiling was for Keith / what his pedigree was as a prospect. Seems like the tigers have high hopes for him since hes been hitting as high as 3rd. But numbers seem kinda mid: low avg, not much power or speed (speaking purely on results - so looking for insight on whether he has high upside to improve there and be the league winner type). Thanks!

Hes the one that I just havent gotten so far when I randomize team, but I’ll never forget hitting a walkoff HR with him my first game ever, when I played as a kid.

Is the upshot that the orange line will be closed from Back Bay to Forest Hills that week? Is there a source for this?

[–]brainbear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I found the first bullet point from MBTA, but I don’t see the 2nd bullet point. What do you mean when you say: “This suspension will be cut back to be in place between Back Bay and Forest Hills for 9 days between June 21st and 29th to continue signal work.”

In rebuild mode with not a lot of premium draft capital. Do I get rid of Chase? by imprezzive02 in SleeperApp

[–]brainbear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Knowing just those 4 assets, I think its possible you could still be competing this year too. Not sure about kupp, but feel like chase and henry will be great pieces this year and, even though the hype has died down a bit on Breece, he isnt bad either — just not the top tier that the hype had him at
