2017 Fantasy Baseball Thread - Page 3 - Fantasy Sports -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

im in a 10 man league, where you have 6 keepers. no restrictions on the keepers. I was just offered Giancarlo Stanton and Anthony Rizzo for Mookie Betts.

My other keeper possibilities are Corey Seager, Tre Turner, JD Martinez, Jackie Bradley Jr., Rougned Odor, Noah Syndergaard and Julio Urias.

I'm really torn on this, please help

Don't you listen to Reddit either

I know some people have mentioned a mock. Anyone have interest in a 'NFBC style' league on Fantrax?

- 50 round slow draft, 8 hours per pick
- No trading or WW
- 2C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, CI, MI, 5OF, 9P lineups
- Set lineups twice a week (Mon-Thur, Fri-Sun)
- 5x5 standard roto, although we could use OBP/QS instead of AVG/W

Could start it whenever, draft usually takes 2-3 weeks if everyone is fairly active. Was thinking starting in mid-January and just doing it for $50 or something cheap

Potential Keepers selection. Pick 5 (at least 1 hitter and 1 pitcher). Long term, they can be kept around +1 rd or +3 in future years.

6x6 league with OBP (not avg), and TB, and QS

Story 13
Hendricks 14
Franco 26
blackmon 22
Stanton 1
Urias 23
springer 10
Lester 9
Machado 5

Currently slotting in Machado, Blackmon, Story, and Urias. Franco/Springer? Lester at 9 is nice too?

Bah, only just realized this thread was around.

Grunching a bit, if you guys want to mock, we could always arrange to mass enter a draft on couchmanagers.com. Regardless of where/format/etc, I'm interested.

That's fair, I guess I'm just imagining that at rd 23 he's a good pick. Lester at 9 or Hendricks at 14 are solid value, but within +/- ~3 rds of their ADP I'd imagine, Urias is probably ~7/8 rds of value, no?

Happily swayed though to keep one of the other guys

I'm not keeping Stanton or Franco. It's prob more between Lester and Hendricks for me.

Machado/Story/Blackmon/Springer prob my first 4.

Hendricks over Urias IMO, the only negative on Kyle is his Ks, but he is still projected to K 20-25 more than Urias.

Urias ceiling just to low at this point, his innings just won't be where you want them to be.

edit: Could see Lester or Hendricks, havent compared too much or looked at values too much so don't know

My current keepers (can keep 8) with prices and years left are below, keepers can be 4 years total and go from $1, $2, $9, $10 and 10% inflation each year for every keeper over $10.

Donaldson $1, 1 year
Altuve $12, 2 years
Machado $9, 3 years
Arenado $9, 2 years
Pollock $12, 3 years
Springer $9, 2 years
JD mart $1, 2 years
Carrasco $1, 2 years

I give: Donaldson and Machado
I get: Betts at $1 for 2 years

My other players I can keep for $1 for 4 years on the roster to replace Donaldson are:

Wilson contreras
Jose Pereza
Aaron judge
Sean manaea

On second thought probably going to decline because I initially though the keeper years remaining for Machado and betts were flipped. But still interested to hear peoples thoughts as I think betts is going off again and Donaldson will fall off pretty hard this year with no EE and Bautista

Same league keeper question:

I give Donaldson and Machado

I get Betts ($1 for 2 years) and polanco ($1 for 2 years)

Still leaning no in this but I really think betts will finish #1 this year. Thoughts?

Blackmon 12th = never reading that guy.

Also hate the Marte over Miggy/Votto pick. Understand the premium being put on SBs, but think it's cancelled out by the 1B drop off after the first 30 picks.

While I disagree too, he's going 14th in NFBC ADP right now, so he's not really that far off.

Nice of the guy in the 9-hole to donk up the whole draft unless the draft board is just screwed up. Andrew Miller #16 overall followed by the immortal Zach Duke in the 3rd round.
