Who would you rather have going forward in a 6x6 OBP league.

Judge at $1 for 4 more years or turner at $1 for 3 more years

Assuming Trea, because of the reduced SB value in 6x6, I think it's Judge and not close (given the extra year of control)

That's interesting - the massive slump judge has right now doesn't have anyone worried?

I'm definitely holding onto Turner in that scenario. Turner has harder to find batting average and steals skills, and SS is a position I'd like to have locked up.

I can't really think of a comp that Judge could be that I would take over Turner, except 2017-Stanton. His counting stats are going to lag with such a high strikeout rate. Floor is just too low to me.

There has been a lot of recent speculation that Judge's slump is at least partially due to his shoulder issue. Ive read in a few places that it might have been bothering him for a quite a while and he just played through it.

Either way, Judge carries a bit more risk as a hitter, but Trea can't seem to stay on the field (and yes I realize that sounds LOL after reading my first sentence above). Ill take the huge power upside with terrific strike zone recognition every time though, so give me Judge.

And like Gary mentioned, Turner's greatest strength is reduced in value when you play 6x6, and power/OBP is rewarded in that format.

Is it the standard five categories plus OBP? If I can get some juice out of a potential .290 batting average for Turner that might sway me. The FanGraphs auction calculator puts Turner in the top 15 among hitters assuming those categories, that's a great value and I would just take it and let someone else worry if Judge really sucks or not.

I never thought there would be a point this year where I would be sweating the severity of a Byron Buxton injury.

Mejia called up
Unclear if he will catch much or get regular atbats. He has been playing some 3B recently in the minors though.

keeper question -

I give JDM, can be kept for $8 for his last year next season

I get Devers, has 4 years of keep ability and will be $1, 2, 3, then 8 in his final year.

6x6 with OBP.

I've already won this year and my team is built for another top 1/2 finish next season. Still have to snap this right?

I may not win my 2 week matchup, but damn Jose Ramirez is giving me a fighting chance. 4/4 w/ 4 XBH today, 12 bases. Beast! Was getting crushed in XBH/TB but not anymore. The funny thing is that I have 36 XBH this week and only 27 RBI. How does that even happen, lol.

Why in that guy even offering Devers at this point?
Since you already won the league, im assuming its roto... Which makes me wonder how much of a difference a couple HRs and handful of RBI can really make for him? And thats just projected difference.

That guy is that idiot Russell from SRM's leagues last year. He perpetually finishes last and hoards prospects then trades them for no reason (just traded Hoskins for price and Maeda lol).

He had turner at the end of last season and gave him away for some closers. this is his team in a 12 team keeper lol...
