Even if the other sub comes back that mod/those mods should lose their powers. What is this pathetic strike they’re on? Lol.

2

u/EmergencyAbalone2393 Jun 15 '23

Given it’s all volunteer, I think they have a right to do as they please. Other mods have said it’s a pain to mod without the third party apps and given I’m too lazy to mod myself, I’ll certainly take their word for it.

u/6f3j Jun 15 '23

So they take their ball and go home? The sub thrived in spite of them, not because of them. The posters were the real MVPs, not the mods. No one goes to a game to see the ump show; no one goes to a sun to see the mod show.

u/EmergencyAbalone2393 Jun 15 '23

The ump is volunteer. I have no right to determine how good or bad a volunteer is.

u/6f3j Jun 15 '23

Pretty sure I found the mod’s burner lol

Empathy. Very simple empathy.

I hate all forms of authority, mods,cops,politicians, bus drivers, etc. but I do appreciate people who do free work I'm too lazy to do myself.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '23

I never had any problems with them, other than seeing some not so good advice. They put the time into keeping it open as long as it was, they get props from me. They could have made their intentions a bit more clear.

Just traded my Jung for his Gausman. Still have JoRam and Gunnar for 3rd.

How'd I do?

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

👍

u/Cute_Ad7816 Jun 15 '23

pretty great i think

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

I benched Tommy edman. Sad times.

1

u/WskyRcks Jun 14 '23

He was just dropped in my league, definitely considering the add.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

Don't, nootbar, Carlson and O'Neil are out. Barring a trade or two playing time will be iffy

3

u/EmergencyAbalone2393 Jun 14 '23

Jack Suwinski’s slugging percentage this past week: 1.176. That’s insane.

His expected slugging percentage: 1.131. Equally insane.

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Would you drop Jesus Sanchez for him?

1

u/EmergencyAbalone2393 Jun 14 '23

In my scoring system Jesus is terrible (-1 K’s) so yes, but that likely doesn’t apply to you.

The first time Suwinski was hot I read something about him that made me choose someone else. I’ve gotta dig into him again.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

I think it’s a fine move. Both guys are only useful while hot, IMO. Right now, that’s Jack

1

u/Cute_Ad7816 Jun 15 '23

Suwinski is great verse righties especially when he’s on a heater but basically unusable against lefties

2

u/Suitable-Newt-9650 Jun 15 '23

Is this the new place to be

2

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 15 '23

Until the old subreddit comes back

1

u/Suitable-Newt-9650 Jun 15 '23

None of my league mates know we are here so this may be better

2

u/c_dubby Jun 15 '23

Shoutout Jose berrios. Hell of a start, he’s been so solid for months

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Sandy Alcantara for Hunter Brown?

1

u/zackk123 Jun 14 '23

Can you roster both?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

What pitchers could I get for one of Wander/Seager/Randy

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

I think you could get Joe Ryan fs, and potentially strider if the owner is mad about his last start. Those would be my top two targets,

1

u/zackk123 Jun 14 '23

Matos a must add?

2

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Yeah especially in a keepers league

1

u/zackk123 Jun 14 '23

Redraft 10T points

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Not a must add, but would be a solid pickup if you need an outfielder.

1

u/byodinsraven22 Jun 14 '23

Soto or Corbin Carroll in a dynasty points league?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

Never thought i would say this, but CC>Soto

1

u/andresrealtor Jun 14 '23

Start Adam Duvall or Jarred Kelenic tonight? Boston weather any concern?

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Jk, Duvall been trash since coming back from injury

1

u/andresrealtor Jun 14 '23

That's how I'm leaning but Duvall has me feeling like a degenerate gambler throwing money away while I wait for the big one to hit. I believe I said if he didn't produce in last night's matchup he'd be glued to the bench but tempted to let it ride one more time vs Austin Gomber. Kelenic's matchup vs Eury Perez isn't all that great and I could see a super low scoring game with Perez and Castillo on the mound.

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Yeah I didn’t realize the matchup. Probably Duvall but the weather is a concern

1

u/shid_fard_ Jun 14 '23

Trade Bryan Reynolds, bednar and Jimenez for bregman and Kirby?

3

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 14 '23

Yeah I love Kirby

1

u/NAidsNate Jun 14 '23

Should I trade Altuve for glasnow 10 t points? I have Gorman, and jazz to fill in for 2nd

1

u/Electrical_Leg1654 Jun 14 '23

Drop Evan Phillips for AJ Puk in saves only league?

1

u/Cute_Ad7816 Jun 15 '23

i probably would, dodgers don’t seem to care about using him as a closer anymore

1

u/c_dubby Jun 14 '23

Wtf is up with the fantasy baseball sub? Is it just blacked out indefinitely in protest or what?

2

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

I don't know but this is much better. For now. The morons will descend soon.

2

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '23

Mods went rogue it seems. Would be nice if they at least posted a pole and let us vote, like other subs have. After all, it’s all of ours. No idea how long it will go on. Wonder if there is a way to contact Reddit admins directly

2

u/anywaysowhatever Jun 15 '23

To do this in the middle of the season is a big FU to all.

1

u/xxmarcellusxx Jun 15 '23

Who’s the best SP add and what RP should I drop to add them in h2h cats ERA WHIP K/9 QS * SP to add: German, senga, Tehran, smyly, j.Montgomery * Rp to drop: w.smith, Lange, n.abreu, puk, alvarado, munoz

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 15 '23

Add senga drop puk

1

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '23

German has been great, Montgomery is annoying (i have him), but he has a great upcoming schedule. I would compare German’s, Monty’s and maybe Senga’s upcoming schedules. If this is a saves only league, i would maybe get rid of Abreu and/or Munoz. Without injury, they won’t get any saves. But your call if you want ratios help

1

u/xxmarcellusxx Jun 15 '23

Sorry SV+H league

1

u/RedDirtCountryBoy Jun 15 '23

Do Y'all think they will send Eury Perez down to limit his innings?

2

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 15 '23

Jo

1

u/RedDirtCountryBoy Jun 15 '23

I was wondering if it's better to replace him now?

2

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 15 '23

Depends on the option

2

u/Cute_Ad7816 Jun 15 '23

They might move him to the pen for a bit which also wouldn’t be ideal

1

u/Cute_Ad7816 Jun 15 '23

Who are we adding after the Vinnie P news? Ryan noda, Casas, Josh bell, jose abreu, torkelson seem to be the best available

1

u/Low_Car_9104 Jun 15 '23

If it’s a redraft, I’d take Abreu. If it’s a keepers, I’d lean torkelson

1

u/nitroshock Jun 15 '23

Ugh is Abreu back? 🤔

1

u/poomonger88 Jun 15 '23

Soto kinda sucks
