Eloy? No. haha.

 

Don't you f***ing cuss at me?! lol

[connorp]

Ohtani, Eloy and Trout have to be top 10.

 

That site combines the Ohtanis. In that case I’d take him Top 10 but don’t think I’d take the hitter there

All sites combine the Ohtani SP/DH... save for Yahoo. They're supposed to change that this offseason.

Which side would you take:

 

Semein, Mclannahan, Clevinger and Brujan

For Albies, Woodruff and a 6th round

[Laika]

probably A my dude

[FantasyNewb]

probably A my dude

 

Thanks. That's what I was thinking too. Appreciate the response.

What your thoughts on Eduardo Rodriguez. His fip and xfip were great the past year but his velocity was down. I'm in a 12 Dynasty league and was wondering if he would be a good #6 or #7 starter? It appeared he was very unlucky last year. Think he can turn it around?

pre-COVID he was a solid #3

 

then covid hit, he got infected, heart issue, and didnt pitch in 2020, got better as 2021 progressed

 

i think he'll get back to his pre-covid ways

Yes.

Yeah, I viewed it that way too. Thanks.

[Spanky__99]

That's what I was thinking. Thanks, Spanky.

 

Yes, on both questions by the way.

[FantasyNewb]

Yes, on both questions by the way.

 

Awesome! I appreciate it.

[FantasyNewb]

You've all helped a lot. Thanks.

 

I have a lot of potential deals on the table. How would you rank the following players in terms of Dynasty rankings: Eduardo Rodriguez, Gavin Lux, Joe Adell, Nate Pearson, Gabriel Moreno, and Max Meyer?

I think if you scroll back you asked just about the same question before lol

You’re a stand up guy

Moreno, Ed-Rod, Meyer, Pearson, Lux and Adell .

 

Book it.

[FantasyNewb]

Book it.

 

Ok, thanks. Didn't mean to make it sound similar to my previous posts. In the earlier deal, I wasn't going to lose any of those players. So now that I have to lose one, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't making a mistake. I'm a new Dynasty player, so not sure the value of top prospects versus good players who had a down year.

Don't listen to Baldilocks, MLB players > prospects, always with success anyway. Ed-Rod was where those guys were and has proven he's an MLB starter.

 

P.S. You didn't.

[FantasyNewb]

Yeah, that makes sense. I think I overvalue prospects sometimes. So you'd take Lux over Adell? I'm leaning that way too especially with his positional flexibility.

Yes, his tools offensively are better than JA.

[FantasyNewb]

Perfect! Thanks again.

[Spanky__99]

Perfect! Thanks again.

 

No worries, just look... Ed-Rod is 6 innings deep against the best Offense in MLB, haha!

 

Adell's floor is higher because of his D... Lux certainly has the better bat projection.

Haha. Yeah, tonight's game helped, and you convinced me to pull the trigger. And I'm glad I did. I know it was a good move.

I mean, I’d like to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you’re bringing up D saying it’ll get him on the field more…but I don’t think that’s what you meant, just bc I know you’re a dumbass

D brings any floor up as always, meat.

What was the trade?

[FantasyNewb]

What was the trade?

 

We have a 12 team league and can protect 20 players, and the rest are vulnerable. And I gave up a 2nd round pick in the re-draft. So basically I gave up my 22nd best player.

 

I was weak on the pitching side. He's definitely an improvement on my 6th and 7th pitcher. And I like the fact he's still only 28.

Noice!

[FantasyNewb]

Thanks.

 

Currently my team is:

 

C: Murphy, Moreno, Ruiz

1st: Guerrero, Torkelson, Casas

2nd: Albies, Abrams, Taylor

SS: Franco, Lux, Taylor, Noelvi Marte, Barrero

3rd: Suarez, Taylor

OF: Yordan Alvarez

OF: Carlson

OF: Kelenic, Lux, Adell

UI: Torkelson, Casas, Abrams, Barrero. Marte

U: Tork, Casas, Abrams, Marte, Lux, Adell

 

P: Bieber

P: Woodruff

P: Peralta

P: McCullers

P: Baz

P: Eduardo Rodriguez

P: May, Grayson Rodriquez, Pearson, Max Meyers, Patino

 

So my weakness is 3rd and P. I've been trying to pry away Moncada with a couple top prospects and picks but no deal yet.
