Thanks for all the great advice😂😂😅😅
Just drafted my last team for 23. On CBS.
Judge, Tucker, Burnes, Lindor, Clase, Albies and Riley. Bryant, T. Hernandez, Gausman, Lynn, Webb, Hoskins, Castellanos, France, and last pick was O'Neil Cruz. Gives me some flexibility at 1st, OF, U. I punted on catcher and 2nd RP with Seawald and W. Contreras (Mil). Overall I expect to be in the championship barring injuries. Thanks for all the advice guys!
Really enjoy the content…but after watching many of your videos, I do have a suggestion:
Please crank up the volume on Scott. Quite often he trails off and becomes almost unintelligible. I can hear Frank and Chris without issue.
Nola got hit in the face. JT got hit in the face. Play the WBC the world loves it.
I got Altuve at the beginning of the 14th round. Got Thairo Estrada and took a late flier on Miguel Vargas (when he does get 2B eligibility) to plug in for the mean time.
H2H points league with 5 IL spots, where should I be targeting Altuve at?
What happened??? From the AFL until recently Julien was mentioned on a lot podcasts. Now Polanco hurt and not a mention!
To me, the Altuve injury drastically changes the calculus of the OF/3B/2B strategy. I am re-thinking everything. 🤣
The World Baseball Classic is a blight to Fantasy baseball.
The price of mid tier pitchers is inflated because everyone hears the analysts say get hitters early. Might be time to swim against the current to get value out of the stud SP.
Nice info on Altuve injury with examples. This is what I call expert analyzis, and makes it easier to make a decision on draft day. Thank you.
LMAO at SCOTT calling someone “boring”…the most boring man alive
Just put in my keepers 🤦🏻♂️
I haven't been following the WBC. I had a Fantasy Draft at 4 PM Sunday( yesterday) with the number 10 pick in a 12 team league. A half hour before the draft, I was reviewing the ADP rankings by position on the draft page and noticed that Altuve was missing. WTF! Anyway I went to a news site and saw the news of the injury. In round 3, pick 34, I had a choice of Albies and Chisolm. I went with Albies. The league has 2 IL spots and someone took Altuve in the 9th round 2 picks after Andres Gimenez. I had Altuve penciled in to take in the 12th if he was still there. His ADP was listed in the 160s.
So glad I didn't listen to Scott and take altuve with the of 2b 3b thing
The past 2 years I've done the opposite of what Chris says and have finished 1st and 2nd. Going to continue that strategy again this year because it's successful.
I pulled my Dillon and Dodd while listening to Scotts banter
I got Altuve at 106 last night. I’m pretty pumped
I agree that players are not necessarily more likely to get injured in the WBC than in a Spring game. However, it sucks that Altuve got injured doing something that I don’t care about. Not quite as frustrating as, but comparable to, if he had broken his thumb during a charity basketball game.
Oh, and “RBIs”
This is what I get for drafting early. Ive got Altuve for starting 2B in 7 of my 13 leagues. I had Vaughn Grissom as my 2nd 2B assuming he was going to start for the Braves. Now as of an hour ago I find out hes being optioned to Triple-A. Kolten Wong is usually the best option of 2B FA's in my leagues….could be worse, I guess
