@IAmRickGraham GM Rick. Is Stanek worth grabbing for saves? Leasure, Taylor, Baker, Soto are also available.

@SamsClub Customer service gave me access to another member's account, and I have no way to get into my own. Your VRU is horrible. I NEED HELP

@IAmRickGraham Dangit. Someone grabbed Scott before I had a chance. Romano or Pomeranz?

@mahercs Still prefer Scott in SV+HLD

@IAmRickGraham Hey Rick, Finished the draft with 6 RPs. Saves and Holds are equal in our H2H 12 teamer. Wondering if I need to look for something better on the wire or hold for now to see how things shake out: Hoffman, R. Suarez, Yates, Morejon, Brash, Mason Montgomery.

@ifthechufits Scott, what do the blue and red shades mean in your hitter list article, at the bottom with the 151-300 list?

@IAmRickGraham Now that Yates is on the IL, is Pomeranz worth a grab? Or go the date route with Scott?

@IAmRickGraham I'm not a huge fan of Dodgers RPs, but Scott is available too. As are Uceta, D. Lee, Keller, Finnegan, G. Taylor and Varland. Plan to monitor Sabrowski and Svanson as well. Your weekly articles and notes are a HUGE help!

@EricCrossMLB Drafted Stowers, but need a replacement. DeLauter seems like a good one

DOUBLE DONG DAY FOR CHASE DELAUTER

@ifthechufits It's a keeper league, so I'll have to keep an eye on him maybe to replace Montgomery. I've learned to give guys at least a month. Sometimes it burns me, sometimes it's a win. Appreciate your help!

@mahercs Maybe in dynasty

@ifthechufits Hey Scott, was able to grab Riley, rest of roster looks like this. Only question is Keith, but I'd like a backup 1B. Manzardo, O'Hearn, Burger, Vargas are available. TYIA

@ifthechufits Awesome. Thanks. I also see Marcelo Mayer was undrafted and available. He worth a spot over any of the rest?

@mahercs Burger has power with bad ratios. OHearn has ok power with decent ratios. Manzardo will be platooned but has the most upside if he finally gets unleashed and doesn't blow it.

@IAmRickGraham Hey Rick. Happy weeekdn! Are you planning on a Holds ranking this week? Or is saves+holds article it for preseason?

@ifthechufits Scott. Keepers are in. These are the top 3B left. I have pick 9 in a snake draft.

@mahercs Haha just don't ask me to code! I covered this a bit in the last Hacks and Jacks - the more cats you have, the less you care about steals. When you're using SLG or OPS, you put a big premium on power.

@ifthechufits Hey Scott! Getting ready to select my 8 keepers in a 12 team HTH 7x7. Plan to keep 3 SPs, Skubal, Crochet, Ragans. Need 5 bats. Keeping Raleigh, Carroll, Harper, Riley. Need help with the last spot: Duran, Rooker, K. Marte, Turang. Thoughts?

@ifthechufits Absolutely nailed it. I used to be known for my power bats, but have gotten strong in SPs, so I lost some momentum. Power gets me HRs, Runs, SLG, RBIs and OBP, while steals are one category. Who needs Ai when Scott is here!? 😂

@mahercs You can look at steals in the draft - plenty of ways to get it if needed. Id want power secured, though, as most of the elite options are definitely kept and it won't be long before power in the draft comes with 2-3 penalties (or more)

@ifthechufits I was thinking Duran and Riley! I looked at my team with Rooker and Marte and thought, damn, that's some firepower, which I struggled with a little last season. I'll need to focus on steals, 3B and MI in the draft, but I think I like it. Appreciate the advice. Have a great season

@mahercs I think I still lean Rooker and Marte

@ifthechufits Yes, Austin. No idea who's going to be available at 3B until after keepers are locked in tomorrow night. It's a gamble.

@mahercs Assuming this is Austin Riley, right? Any sense of who the other available 3B are?

@ifthechufits Ooooh. I thought about dropping Riley, but not sure who's going to be available at 9th.

@mahercs I think I like Rooker and Marte over Riley

@IAmRickGraham Welp. He's one of my keepers! Grrrr

We are officially at “OUR PETS HEADS ARE FALLING OFF” levels for MLB injuries

@EricCrossMLB I have Raleigh in a keeper league, and snagged Basallo. Not sure if I should keep both.

For leagues where he's eligible, I'd have Ivan Herrera between Smith and Perez.
