#1 Post by somerandomguy »

I'm in a 5x5 AL only 11 team keepers league- last year i dumped and started in a good place. I had 5 reserve picks- we can have up to 7 reserves

B T France 24 A Gimenez 2 M Chapman 20 E Haase 12 K Higashioka 3 A Frazier 5 T Ward 9 O Gonzalez 6 T Hernandez 30 H Ramirez 8 J Baez 22 J Jung 10 P P Sewald 4 B Singer 6 D Rasmussen 1 N Cortes 1 E Clase 27 S Bieber 36 C Martin 1 J Loaisiga 2 C Thielbar 1 Reserves JP Crawford 10 T Story 1 G Rodriguez 10 T Skubal 5 B Joyce 5

I would love to know what you think- where you recommend I improve the team- I know my catchers are lacking- where would you think i need improvement

Keep an eye on Gonzalez and Ramirez, they're in danger of losing playing time.

I'm not a fan of stashing injured guys/minors if I plan on contending, unless they're trade bait. I can see stashing Story, but for me anyway, Ben Joyce is a waste of a valuable reserve spot. Yeah, I know he throws 105. If you're paying for Clase, you don't need to try the cheap route too, your team, your call.

Tampa loves its L/R R/L matchups. Most of the batters righthanded, so if Raley does anything, he could play against all RHP, mixing between DH, 1B and some corner outfield.
