I'm not needing top end closers, but also that means I am not trading top end talent to get saves. Sidenote, this is directed at everyone, not just HH.

Hoping Posey stays healthy and continues his .300 AVG Just an FYI but that leaves you without a pick trade for the remainder of the year which also means you cannot acquire draft picks in a deal.

Mr. bDoDDleS Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 New Swap dingo18287 gets: OF Austin Meadows bDoDDleS gets: SS Tim Anderson bD's Take: Wanted to move an OF for an INF and do it here. Fan of Meadows but Anderson is on a 30-30 pace and has improved his plate discipline and contact % this year and if that continues to improve with his power and speed. I'll be more than happy keeping him into 2019. Over his last 120 major league games, Anderson has went .261-19-22. The RBI-Runs aren't there but with hopeful improvements from Moncada and adding Eloy to Abreu, those totals should increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would lessen the value of fringe closers and make stud closers-setup guys more of a premium. I'm open to it, and selfishly with all my early picks, it would allow me more options to draft. Also if this move happens it needs to happen soon so that keeper lists can be adjusted. Also with the bullpen committee becoming more and more prevalent, this helps us keep evolving.

BillsGuy82 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Alright, Vince Velasquez puts up this line to set my pitching back half a month lol Velasquez : 3.2 IP 9 Hits 10 ER 2 BB 4 K 24.55 ERA 3.00 WHIP Gabe Kapler is a **** POS, who has no business managing a team and if I'm Manny Machado, Bryce Harper or Josh Donaldson I don't even entertain Philly this off season if Kapler is Managing that team.

H2H maybe but ROTO, that guarantees some teams are at a disadvantage from the get go. Think we need to adjust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season I was actually the biggest advocate for holds in Vet league, just learned a lot about the downside to the stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure some guys will get random holds but the more valuable guys will be the Andrew Miller, Josh Hader, Adam Ottavino's of the world. Just think it makes the league even more competitive.
