Fantasy Baseball

[reediddy]

Who plays? This is my team in ESPN standard format:

C Joe Mauer

1B Adrian Gonzalez

2B Brandon Phillips

3B Miguel Cabrera

SS Asdrubal Cabrera

2B/SS Daniel Murphy

1B/3B Adrian Beltre

OF Alex Rios

OF Carl Crawford

OF Andre Ethier

OF Dexter Fowler

OF Denard Span

UTIL David Ortiz

BE Adam LaRoche

DL Hanley Ramirez

SP Felix Hernandez

SP CC Sabathia

RP Rafael Soriano

SP Anibal Sanchez

SP Brett Anderson

SP Derek Holland

RP Tom Wilhelmsen

SP Hisashi Iwakuma

SP Jose Fernandez

SP Andy Pettitte


Thoughts?? Team is off to a great start this year but I'm already starting to look for buy low/sell high options. Currently in pursuit of Michael Bourn (DL) trying to sell on Fowler. The opposing owner wants Brandon Phillips (one of my favorite players) but I'm wondering if his current streak is sustainable.

Could never get into fantasy baseball. Only care about the O's lol. I would pick too many.

Wow those are pretty darn good deals/steals. The most surprising is that they don't seem to be overly one-sided, except maybe the Trout deal to an extent, but way to buy low on him haha. How do you feel about A. Cabrera? Slow start for both of us, I'm this close to dropping him for a hot SS...

Get yourself Adam Jones/Chris Davis and you are set for HR's all year haha. Don't go near that pitching staff though...ugh..

Actually, playing fantasy baseball is what got me more interested into MLB, being able to see who the top players are and watching them perform in real time and whatnot

Miguel Cabrera: fantasy bread and butter!
