im thinking about buying low on Rizzo and want to offer Alonso + Kimbrel but im afraid that might be too much, am I crazy? Alonso might be the real deal

Think that's a good offer, I would gladly give that up for Rizzo

Guess that window is slammed shut

Meh. .208 on the week with a .320 obp. It's not as if he's been anything special that this should be lamented

The only thing this week has done is create a last chance to sell him

He's #4 in MLB in avg exit velocity, 13% walk rate and normalized BABIP. Good enough for me to scoop up now.

Hmm. On further review it looks like he's underperforming. His profile against RHP is really good and he's running really bad

Anyone see a projected timeline for Chapman? In a roto league I'm desperate for saves in I have an offer of him for Schoop + Law. I have Betances already and figure Melancon will be back soon enough to offset Law. I have LeMahieu and Carpenter also at 2B though I usually play Carpenter at 3B since my other 3B is Frazier. Currently have Cespedes, Brain and Melancon on the DL as well so I'd have to use an active roster spot for him. What do you guys think?

Is Capps available? You could try speculating on him or Felipe Riveroo

Another ****ing start without a QS. I really thought Gausman could make it through 6 innings against the Royals, jfc. I need to get 5 QS in my next 5 starts to be 2nd to last in QS and I'd STILL be at a bad percentage of QS/GS

If I offer Yonder Alonso for Starlin Castro, would they snap accept?

I would

Do you think I could get more than Castro for Alonso?

The team I currently have: http://prntscr.com/f7twgs

Maybe. I think Alonso will hit 30 hrs this year and post a high OBP. But 1B is pretty loaded, so I could understand getting Castro if you need 2B help. Middle infield is a lot less deep than 1B and the corner infield positions

A guy with a ridiculous surplus of MI needs saves, and my MI is a dumpster fire. What combos would seem to work out of these:

His MI:

Murphy 99%
Machado 99%
Correa 99%
Ramirez 97%
Cesar Hernandez 80%
Cozart 69%
Solarte 67%
Harrison 46%

My bullpen:

Jansen 99%
Oh 92%
Kintzler 58%
Reed 50%
Rosenthal 22%

Thinking of trying to go Kintzler for Cesar or Cozart. Does that sound like a decent return, or am I way undervaluing him?

I've got a stacked OF (Springer, Schebler, Trumbo, Judge, Duvall, KDavis, Kiermaier) and could offer 2-1 to trade up potentially.

12 man roto, punting BA.

He's hitting 98 with regularity on top of everything else

ya he's for real. breathing hot fire with those 99s. numbers look kinda bad but he'll come around imo and he can be gotten for cheap for those who have the images of the roy halladay wannabe trying to nickle and dime groundballs
