Justin Upton PH'ed for in tigers game, no word why, only up 4 runs, and splits weren't a reason why, so seems likely an injury, but unknown what/how severe

it doesn't really look like there's a road (barring injury) to consistent playing time for gattis, i've been dropping him everywhere

I dropped him for Matt Weiters, the cream of the ****ty crop that was leftover in that league.

Buying Shaw. Not that I expect him to amount to **** against LHP but the fact that they're still willing to hit him 5th against them as opposed to the bench is a pretty good sign for both the Brewers plans for him and his value as a whole

Shaw was my late round lotto ticket in a couple of leagues. Encouraged to see him have success yesterday against a lefty. I think Miller Park helps him.

Matt Boyd moved up to start tomorrow after 2 PPD's, moving others back. If you need a streamer, @CWS, I've said my love for him numerous times, seems like Detroit does too to move him up

Thoughts:

1. Maybe buxton becomes a great hitter down the road but this year, in a redraft this guy flat sucks. Never understood how he became the most overhyped player cuz of running like god in a month where he still managed an almost 40% krate

2. I like Castro a lot as an UTR catcher especially hitting 6th. Houston is beyond terrible at hitting development at the MLB level of strong prospects and baseball is littered with players who were wasted in Houston and developed elsewhere. Guy had a monster spring and looks pretty good at the plate so far

Keep an eye on Morton tonight. If the velocity and whiff rate stay increased pick him up immediately

Think it's easily explainable that they go deeper into games to get more time catching and ready for the season, see more at bats vs subpar pitchers.

Problem is, no need to rush and get him, everyone wants Bundy atm. Not even sure I can roster Bundy in YPL's atm, 2 of next 3 starts against Boston, and I doubt he passes 130IP, especially if he's throwing so many pitches.
