Now the 2018 Assistant Coach Thread (1 Viewer)

In the same 5x5 Roto league I asked about on page 6, I have a guy offering me Miguel Sano and Jose Batista for Todd Frazier. In the league Sano has OF eligibility, and a previous poster said I need help there, so would this be a good deal? Seems my CI is still solid and would help OF? Thoughts? Thanks.

Frazier's profile scares the #### out of me.

I think whether you should do this move or not depends on if you can handle the double whammy on avg and afford to lose a dozen plus steals.

I definitely do that deal. 

 
Thanks for the responses. That was the direction I was leaning as well. If you don't mind, could you guys give me an idea why you like Sano and Bautista together, better than Frazier? Thanks again, I'm going to go accept that right now.

I like Sano or Bautista alone better than Frazier in roto.

I had Frazier last year and he's a very frustrating player to own.  He will get you a ton of HRs and maybe even a few steals but that's it.  If your league deducts points for Ks,  he will hurt you far more than he will help.

Frazier is a BA/OPB drain with no upside while Sano and Bautista were both undervalued coming into the year, IMO. Not sure Id take either one separately over Frazier (it would be close), but getting both is a no-brainer.

All 3 of them are BA drains.

 
I happen to own jackie bradley and justin turner so as it turns out i actually need travis shaw im my lineup. Triple today! :)

 
Is Greg Bird a drop or hold?  I could drop him for someone off to a hotter start like Suarez, Ellsbury, Escobar, or Werth?  I've got Rizzo at 1B, so I'm mostly looking for UTIL/bench.

Given those options, hold.  Who knows if the ankle is really an issue, but the flu narrative is an easy one to get behind.

 
I'm looking for a relief pitcher that will get a lot of innings with a low WHIP, not necessarily a closer.  

Any names immediately come come to mind?

Rondon and Devenski stick out.  I prefer Rondon if whip is your concern.  Historically low bb rate, babip, hr rate, good gb rate, and good defense behind him fits.  Devenski has a great bb rate for a reliever, but he yields more fb's and his hr rate from last year probably isn't repeatable. 

 
Where are you guys on hunter renfroe?  he was offered to me for Amir Garret, but I turned it down.  Would like to make a counteroffer as my OF could use some help but not quite sure how to value him.

I'd probably take it, but that's more that I don't believe Garret is going to be as good as he has been all year long (all of the Reds for that matter). 

If if you need power, Renfroe should provide power. 

 
I'm getting neevous with Trevor Story's start this year and see gregorious is on waivers, should i stash gregorious?

also, how much longer can we expect Ryan Zimmerman to keep this up?

also, is Haniger the real deal?

Story is on pace for 35 home runs and 250 strikeouts.  Sounds about right.

Over/Under on his first DL trip is May 15.

Yes.

 
Any thoughts on Taylor Motter or Ronald Torreyes? I lost Semien at SS and there's not much available on the waiver wire. I pre-emptively grabbed these two (and started Torreyes last week), the next best available are the likes of Aybar, Mercer, Rosales, Beckham. I could probably swing a deal for Tim Anderson but not sure how much better he is than the guys I grabbed in a league where none of them will be keepers.

Motter is hot and the Mariners said yesterday he could play 1B, meaning they'll keep him in the lineup until he cools off.  I lost Tulo in a league and grabbed Cozart, but SS can be slim pickings in leagues with MIF.

I like Motter. I think he can be a low average masher who might steal a base once in a while. I wouldn't trade a ton for Anderson but I do think he's usable. I think Torreyes is BABIP lucky and about to lose his job when Gregorius gets back in a week or two.

 
Eugenio Suarez for real? Somehow he is a free agent in my league and I'm done with Frazier, though there are other choices available.

He had a solid  year last year and has started off hot.  I wouldn't have an issue with picking him up to replace Frazier.  

 
Seems like hitters on the wire are slim pickings in anything but the shallow leagues this year with the new 10 day DL.  Guys getting put on it with a hangnail, it seems, and benches quickly filled with any sort of usable hitter.

 
Was just offered Donaldson for Sano in a H2H keeper league that intrigued me. Does this make sense long term? I have K Seager already to cover me a 3B while Donaldson is on DL. I had Sano last year, didn't keep him and got him back in the 14th round (keep 6) this year.

 
What are folks doing with Hellickson? He's been crushing this year but his periphs are god awful. I want to try to move him now but not sure what level to ask for. Any thoughts on what he might bring in?

He won't bring in anything of value.  Most people won't realize how good he has been in real life because he is averaging 2.5 K's per start.  He is just a guy in most people's view.

Streaming consideration?  Sure.  Trade for?  Nah.

With the Cubs and Nats (x2) coming up, who he has already seen twice, I'd jump ship now assuming you don't get anyone to bite.

 
I was offered Wacha and Castellanos for Thames and Oh.  My rotation is weak (Verlander, Carrasco, Nova, Manaea, Hahn, Pomeranz, joe Ross).  My other 1b is Abreu and my OF is solid (Blackmon, Gregory Polanco, JD Martinez, Benintendi, Fowler, Pence).  Is Wacha back to being an ace?  I don't care for Castellanos so I would counter with a Thames for Wacha deal.  Also, can I trust Abreu this year?  I'm wondering if I should shoot higher than Wacha or perhaps just hold onto Thames .

Nah I wouldn't trade Thames for a pitcher. 

Abreu did this last year too and then was on ? the whole 2nd half.

Thanks.  Yeah as LD suggested, I'm going to counter with Abreu for Wacha. And I'll include a note for him that Abreu will heat up (as you suggested)

Dropped story, picked up gregorious.  Story was killing me in my H2H points league where strikeouts are -1.

Picked up Parra to fill the Haniger hole.

picked up swarvaski for RP, picking were slim

Desmond gets activated today, so Parra's probably done for until Reynolds cools down
