    Was I wrong to drop Syndergaard for Robbie Ray? Playoffs start next week and I’m not sure if Noah is going to start more than once at this point.

    • Nick Pollack says:

      If your playoffs start next week, I completely get that. This was with the idea that Thor would be back around the first week of September, which is right when most playoffs are just getting started.

  2. Max says:

    I’m quite confused about the way Maeda is being ranked. Dropped last week after a gem, and raised this week after a clunker? Is something going on with his spot in the rotation? Was it somehow solidified over the last week?

  3. Josh Bresser says:

    Nelson gives up 9 ER to the Reds and moves up?

    • Nick Pollack says:

      Paxton got hurt…

      I’m not going to abandon ship after so much consistency from Nelson after one start.

  4. Matt Nielsen says:

    In my 10-team league, only 10 of these guys are unowned. How is that possible?

  5. Jim says:

    Drop McCullers for ERod?

    • Nick Pollack says:

      Do you need help now or do you need a stronger team for your playoffs?

      Now = Erod. Playoffs = McHugh.

  6. PRESCOTT HERBERT says:

    what in rick porcellos performance showed you he deserved to be moved up?

  7. dodizzle says:

    Corbin throws a gem against the champs and drops a spot? Haven’t watched him pitch much this year, but are there warning signs that spell trouble ahead?

    • Nick Pollack says:

      He’s a volatile arm, that’s really the problem here. I wouldn’t take a one or two spot drop with much seriousness as players with large shifts force the arrows to move slightly each week.

      • dodizzle says:

        Fair enough. I had just been monitoring him as a sneaky add for after the Astros game, but sure enough someone else scooped him for that game and after the game he had, they will probably never let him go.

    Jon Gray or Mike Clevinger ROS? And Dynasty too?
