Oso planning to go pro
I take my Rotisserie league very, very seriously, and I'm happy about my draft but worried about my OF. I also have below-average RP, but spend April/May being a vulture until bullpens settle down.C: Sanchez1B: Goldschmidt2B: Albies3B: RendonSS: BregmanOF: PuigOF: CastellanosOF: PollockUTL: SeguraUTL: EncarnacionSP: ScherzerSP: SnellSP: MikolasSP: CastilloSP: QuintanaRP: HicksRP: StropRP: BarnesBench: Brantley (OF), Peraza (SS), Moustakas (3B), Moncada (2B)
You are a little light on speed. Especially with Persia and Moncada on the bench. You right about the pen. Most unsettled year I have seen in a long time for closers. Stay alert and you’ll be able to grab a couple guys to help you out. If your in a 10 team league, you may be a little light on power: could be OK there if it’s 12 teams.

Yeah, not sure how deep your league is and whether you use OBP or AVG, but the areas you're light should hopefully also be the easiest to find, relatively speaking. Runs and steals via guys that hit early in the order in fine enough lineups and bust up their platoons can pop up out of nowhere the first couple of weeks - Leonys Martin, Jesse Winker, Brandon Nimmo (all OFs). I think Segura is going to be a stat monster at the top of that lineup. If your closers end up actually closing they'll be awesome because they all play for teams that could win 95 games. If they don't you can just cut bait and balance closers on bad teams/injury replacements and a high K/low WHIP innings middle reliever to balance out Castillo and Quintana, who will light your ratios on fire from time to time.
I though about mentioning that, but Scherzer, Snell, and Mikolas are such WHIP monsters, I think he will be OK.
Who signs Keuchel ?
WHIP monsters
He’s waiting for 100 mil. Brewers offered him about 40, unfortunately he didn’t bite. 1st year was about 5 mil2nd was 7mil3 was 27 mil
IF this is true, it says a lot about the Brewers current payroll situation. The big Grandal contract (and Moustakas to a lesser extent) is hamstringing them, but only for one year. Moustakas will be replaced by a much cheaper Hiura next year.Brewers need this guy too. I love Woodruff, Peralta, and Burnes, but moving all of them to the rotation leaves the middle part of the bullpen wide open. Would rather see one of them shift back to the bridge guy to get to Hader (and Jeffress/Knebel, if when they return).
Damn. Tommy John surgery confirmed. Probably the right decision.
Nice immaculate inning save.
Is the MVP race over?
