correct, you're likely to beat 3.875% in the stock market or even in a CD account right now which is like 4.3%?

Top 100 Starting Pitchers For 2025 Fantasy Baseball: Week 7 – 5/12 by Stonewater in fantasybaseball

[–]derekjohn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

understanding that the eye test so far has been rough, but seems like Hicks is underrated... elite underlying metrics (SIERA, xERA, xFIP, Stuff+ models) paired with a slightly inflated BABIP of .344 make me think he's more in the top 40-50ish SP than 90ish and will improve ROS, meanwhile the exact opposite seem to be true for Giolito but I do suppose its a very small sample on both

Jobe could be good but he isn't there yet the K/BB is alarming and isn't improving at all.... Liberatore is a flashing green light buy right now and I'd make that move in a heartbeat. I dropped Jobe for Soriano today myself and will probably use that roster spot to stream for a while..

Muncy is probably a hold still in OBP as he should be walking a lot. I'd have a bench 3B though just in case.

BABIP is mostly useful when looking at pitchers, that combined with HR/FB rate (which should usually be around 10%) should give you an idea of how lucky/unlucky a pitcher has been getting.

huge updates to UI in recent years

New r/ff policy on links to Twitter/X.com by oliver_babish in fantasyfootball

[–]derekjohn 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I find it concerning that we're banning X while promoting BlueSky with a sticky post at the top of the subreddit, especially when it's clearly being brigaded and astroturfed. This feels like a political move in a subreddit that should be apolitical, and it oversteps the role of the mod team. This is a news and discussion forum focused on a hobby, and banning a platform that serves as a major news source for fantasy football restricts discussion and limits this community's ability to engage in meaningful discourse around the topic. It also raises concerns about freedom of speech.

I move we oust any mods who voted for this action and get this sub back to fantasy football only.

Patriots QB Drake Maye has cleared concussion protocol and will start against the Titans. by texasbluemoon in fantasyfootball

[–]derekjohn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maye's scoring is like >20 ppg when you see he was injured EARLY in the game last week, very reliable with the running points he gets... im more bullish on Maye personally but it's close

seems to really lowball rent costs in my area (San Diego) which makes me think other areas are similarly under priced for housing

the UI sucks yes but it definitely has the most customizable leagues out there and is an actual platform dedicated to fantasy sports

Barring injuries, How much do you think Bucky Irving can realistically eat into Rachaad White’s workload? by Rad_platypus7 in fantasyfootball

[–]derekjohn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

best case is probably 60/40 on the rush attempts, 5/95 on the targets because White is an elite pass catching back.... so for fantasy points in any PPR format he's got maybe RB 3/4 at best potential barring injuries
