in a tight H2H matchup all across the board (5x5), seems fine today to sit olson vs sale and gallo vs paxton in favor of brantley vs tillman and cesar vs brault?

Im not sitting either of those guys personally. At the very least at some point they're going to face a RP.
I'd sit Olson before Gallo fwiw

So.
Judge was not a fluke. In fact, he scoffs at regression.
Just hit his 6th HR and is sporting a line of .465/.330/.600+
His walk rate is exactly in line with last year at 19% and his K rate is 13% better than last year (down 4.5 points).
Already has a couple steals as well.

It might actually be Judge rather than Altuve or Harper who becomes the only legit threat to challenge Trout for #1 overall pick in the next few years

Yeah made it a little easier. I did put in Cesar for an earlier game in case that happened, which means I have Olson vs sale but w/e.

Run better, josh!

I did the sensible thing and benched Manaea in the one league where I own him vs. the Red Sox

Josh plays bad and gets there obv

What are we doing with Torres? Snap pickup?

I picked him up where I had a replacement SS like Semien, but I fear h'ell be hitting bottom of the order and not full playing time.

Yeah. Starting Giolito at this point is straight suicide.

I’m about to drop him in my 5 keeper league but I think I have to hang on in the 20 keeper dynasty league.

I have a hard time finding a scenario when Torres puts up better numbers than Semien.

Even if Torres runs hot as ****, he won't hit at the top of the order, whereas Semien is cemented at the top with a proven track record of running and power.

I just don't see it. I would never drop semien for torres, unless it's a keeper and you aren't trying to win this year, and even then i still think it's a decent argument either way.

What in the world was I thinking when Mitch 'God' Haniger was available in picks 200-250 of my draft and I didn't pick him.

Good decision.
