Add/Drop and Waiver Wire wonderment thread: Do you still own Domingo Santana?

[Eephus 23,454]

How about Angel Pagan? Any value there?

He'll play as much as he's able and will bat at the top of order when he does. I doubt he'll run much though. That's a big hit since a lot of his value comes from SBs.

Am I the last person hanging onto Headley?

[MAC_32 12,082]

Am I the last person hanging onto Headley?

traded for him hoping he would turn it around, second consecutive week on the bench. This week for the also struggling freese oof

If nobody has Billy Hamilton stashed, he's been called up.

starting him championship week in my head to head points league. It was him, villar who stopped running, or Franklin who hasn't been the same since hurting his knee. Just steal four bases and score a couple of runs and we're cool billy.

[Bronx Bomber 28]

Would you guys rather roster Hamilton or Bontifacio who has been stealing a ton of bases?

Michael Choice in the A's lineup today.

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

cody asche...anything to see here? he's available in my league and i have too many dodgers and mattingly is starting to rest them.

What you see is what you're going to get - good avg, few homers, few steals.

[Eephus 23,454]

Happily riding the Chris Colabello bandwagon since the Morneau trade

[pantagrapher 1,029]

My optimistic Fernendez predictions, based on nothing:

6-6

3.90 ERA

1.27 WHIP

8.3 K/9

I'm gonna go high on his IP limit and say he gets 174.

Mark it down.

Oops.

You ought to be pretty close on the IP

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

added pettite and ubaldo for the playoffs

[shadyridr 14,320]

Finally picked up Middlebrooks and starting him in my championship round (2 weeks). Hes so hot right now

[pantagrapher 1,029]

Picked up Rutledge, who been hitting well since being back up. Also stealing bases. I hope.

[collective 26]

Can I be in your league next year? Should be a lock.

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

me too

[Good Posting Judge 13,667]

Are we buying Ubaldo 2.0 next year?

[Eephus 23,454]

Are we buying Ubaldo 2.0 next year?

I wouldn't reach for him on 2014 draft day. He's been very solid since the All-Star break but he seems capable of laying a couple of 2 IP, 6 ER turds at any time.

[pantagrapher 1,029]

Are we buying Ubaldo 2.0 next year?

Fangraphs just did a breakdown this morning. They're sort of optimistic of him being useful in shallower mixed leagues.

[cheese 988]

Would you start either Matt Adams or Mitch Moreland (doubtful) ROS over Carlos Gomez?

Adams does have 4 @Coors this week.

[Good Posting Judge 13,667]

Adams without hesitation.

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

cueto in case anyone missed it

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

Plus 2b is garbage on the WW. Anybody got anything?

is Matt Carpenter available? should get 2B eligibility soon

Someone just dropped him in my league. I'm gonna take a flyer on him over weeks

umm yeah Id keep Weeks

[cheese 988]

If anyone streams daily hitters for roto, Billy Hamilton is starting for the Reds tonight.

[The_Man 4,420]

Just an FYI, if you're in a keeper league, I suggest you jump on Orioles pitcher Kevin Gausman right now. 22 years old, 2012 first round pick, now in the bullpen and doing very well, seems to be a lock for the starting rotation next year. He struggled as a starter early in the season, got sent down, and is now pitching great.

Jim Palmer is a part-time Orioles analyst and he falls all over himself every time he sees Gausman pitch - high 90s with a very natural, easy arm action. Now Showalter is bringing him in to pitch key situations with the playoffs on the line.

Last night he pitched two perfect innings in a tie game at Fenway, striking out 5 batters. The final one was on a 98 mph two-seamer that just disappeared away from the left-handed batter. He's the best looking Orioles pitcher I've seen since maybe the early days of Arthur Rhodes, but already has better command.

[DA RAIDERS 4,515]

schwisher and hamilton have been hitting well over the last moth

[Mr. Pickles 4,620]

schwisher

[Zow 8,521]

Is Mariano shut down for the last two games (at least from pitching)? I'm hanging on to a 2 pt. lead in a roto league and am behind .001 in WHIP (my starts are all used up) and need to know whether to leave him in or pick someone else up. Any relievers sure to see action?

Kyle Gibson worth a bench spot?

[MAC_32 12,082]

Kyle Gibson worth a bench spot?

gotta be a crazy deep league. K's aren't there, walks are, he gave up a lot of solid contact in a short stint last year, and even if he pitches well the wins won't be there. Long term potential is still there as this is his first full year off TJ, but he has to show something to me before I consider adding him. Too many types like him I can trust more now on teams that may actually win.

[Mr. Peterson 193]

Not sure where to ask this but an offer came my way and I'm clueless about it. It's 15 team league, don't count rbi or runs. My 1B is D. Murphy and I have weak SP's but I'm mostly just looking at value.

Would you take this? Was offered:

B.Butler and AJ Burnett (or it could be Griffin)

for

S.Marte

Just value wise, is this a good or terrible deal?

Thank you.

i would think butler loses a lot of value in a league that doesn't do counting stats. I like it in a regular league though. With Burnett.

Yeah, we just do avg, HR's, SB's, total bases and OBP. I think they try to take the team aspect out. So it's a doable trade?

Kind of an odd format. You'd be giving up a lot of SBs so a lot depends on how well you're positioned in that category w/out Marte. Are there keepers?

No. And the rest of my team is

CarGo

Tulo

Longoria

Marte

A.Hill

McCann

Soriano

Arenado

D.Murphy

B.Miller

And P's are even worse

S.Miller

Ryu

Uehara

L.Lynn

Mujica

And that's it basically. I really messed up this draft.

[shadyridr 14,320]

Tanner Scheppers in deeper leagues. Throws 95, RP eligible with a good supporting offense behind him.

No. And the rest of my team is

I believe pitching is normal categories. And with 15 teams, options are limited on the wire. Niese, Wandy Rodriguez, Locke. That's about it.

But thinking of trading Brad Miller while his value is hot. Is Wheeler or Pineda worth him? (I have Tulo at SS)

[Annyong 2,125]

Already offered a trade in a 12 team 5x5obp league. I kinda gotta do this one right? No way Hawkins holds onto that job right?

I get: Leonys Martin

I give: Latroy Hawkins

I'm currently stuck starting 2 of Ruggiano / Byrd / Chris Johnson in my starting lineup. I already have 3 closers in Romo/Papelbon/Axford

Yes, I would take a shot on a pitcher like that for Miller. Off the top of my head any of these guys on the wire - Kyle Gibson, Hutchinson, Morrow, Vogelsong? Wouldn't trade for them though.

[Bobcat10 1,978]

Colby Lewis...anything to think about here?
