Matthew

12 team league // 0.5 PPR // 1QB/3WR/2RB/1TE/1FLEX

My Team:

QB: Palmer, Stafford

WR: Cobb, Hopkins, Maclin,

RB: Hill, Miller,

TE: Tyler Eifert

Flex: John Brown, Tate, Vereen, Charles Johnson

I was offered this trade today:

My Jeremy Maclin and Lamar Miller (on Bye this week)

For

His Martavis Bryant and Justin Forsett

Do I do this? Is Maclin for real? How good can Bryant be? Will Miller bust out with a coaching change? Is Forsett going to turn it around? I have a huge hole in RB this week with Miller on the Bye week and Forsett would be a huge replacement facing the Browns this week!

HELP!

Thanks everyone.

Staying the night in Santa Barbara, things to do/see?

Me and 2 buddies are driving down the California coast and stopping in Santa Barbara tomorrow night (Jan 28th). Any recommendations what to do and see? Places to stay? Also stopping in LA, driving out to Joshua Tree and then to San Diego!

Thank you so much! Any tips or recommendations are helpful.

12 Team H2H PPR League.

Can start either: Mike Vick (vs. ATL) or Ben Roethlisberger (vs. WAS). I also have Jeremy Maclin so any pts he gets, Vick gets as well. What to do?

Thanks guys.

My team is pretty weak, don't know who to start in my Flex for this week (4).

My options are:

WR Andrew Hawkins (CIN) @JAC

WR Brandon LaFell (CAR) @ATL

It's a PPR league (.5pts/reception,1pt/10yards, 6pts/REC TD), I currently have Hawkins starting as I like his matchup more than LaFell @ATL.

THANKS GUYS!

My team:

C: Y. Molina

1B: Goldschmidt

2B: Philips

3B: A-Rod

SS: Andrus

OF: Morse, Upton, A-Jax, Bourn

UTIL: Ortiz

DL: Ellsbury + Howard

SP: Grinke, Sale, Cueto, Marcum, Lynn, Zimmermann, Diamond

RP: Chapman

NA/DL: Halladay, Oswalt

I lose Saves every week anyways, I think SAVESA is a way over valued stat when you can have legit SPs in the RP role (Sale, Lynn). I have 2 decent 1B already in Goldschmidt and Morse (and 2 more when Ortiz becomes eligible and Howard is back) however Konerko is a beast. What do you think. I have A-Jax on my bench, trading Bourn puts him in the lineup with Goldschmidt/Morse as my bench guys, and I can take a chance and wait with the Freak that is Lincecum. This is a keeper pool, keeping 8 players (5-3 4-4 3-5).

Thoughts?

Thanks guys.

10 team 5x5 H2H league. I have been plagued by injuries and have had Howard*, Ellsbury, Morse, Storen, Farnsworth and now Gardner on the DL (only 2 DL spots on our rosters).

Currently am holding onto Howard, Ellsbury, Morse and Gardner (Morse and Gardner on my bench). I'm thinking about making 2 moves. 1. Drop Gardner for Bourn. I figure they're almost the same type of player, Gardner has more potential if he was leadoff, however is it worth holding onto him for 2+ weeks if Bourn is sitting there and could do the same if not more for me? I'm more worried about Gardner getting snatched up and killing it (after Tuesdays game), but if Bourn is sitting there, will Gardner really be grabbed? And 2. Drop Lucas Duda for Mark Trumbo and stash Trumbo on my bench until he gets more playing time. I think Trumbo is legit and just needs more at-bats. What do you think? Who's better Duda or Trumbo?

Notables I could also pickup are: Reimold, De Aza, Swisher, Rasmus, Peavy, Duffy, Porcello, Bauer

My team:

C- Y. Molina

1B- C. Pena

2B- B. Phillips

SS- E. Andrus

3B- ARod

OF- J. Upton

OF- A. Jackson

OF- L. Duda

UTIL- D. Ortiz

Bench- B. Gardner

Bench- M. Morse

DL- J. Ellsbury

DL- R. Howard

SP- Halladay, Greinke, Zimmermann, Marcum, E. Santana, Cueto, Lynn

RP- H. Rodriguez (WAS), J. Guerra (LAD)

10 team H2H standard 5x5 league, keeping 8 players, 5 bats and 3 arms.

So far I'm keeping Roy Halladay and Zack Grienke. My final spot for pitcher is available for Ervin Santana, Clay Buchholz, Max Scherzer, Trevor Cahill, Bud Norris.

Obviously leaning most towards Santana, Buchholz or Scherzer, but what do you guys think? Who should I keep as my 3rd pitcher?

Currently in a 12 team PPR head to head keeper league. I've been offered a trade which would have me trade James Starks for Mike Sims-Walker or Davone Bess.

My team is currently riddled with injuries. I already have Colston down and after week 2 might have lost Vick and Austin, so I need WR desperately.

My team:

QB: Vick, Orton

WR: Colston, Austin, Maclin, Rice, Jones

RB: Mathews, Best, Starks, Moreno, Sproles

TE: Vernon Davis

Although Starks could be great, I have such huge RB depth that I won't miss him too much. The guy I'm trading too also has Ryan Grant, so he's very interested in getting Starks. What do you guys think? Should I trade Starks and if so for MSW or Bess?

Thanks!

I'm having trouble figuring out who I should drop into my flex spot in week 2.

My options are: Kyle Orton (QB vs. Cin), Ryan Mathews (RB @ NE), Darren Sproles (RB vs. Chi), or Knowshon Moreno (RB vs. Cin - however, he's most likely out this Sunday).

12 team keeper PPR league. I'm drafting 11th of 12 and it's a snake draft. We're all choosing our keepers now and I have a very interesting offer.

My keepers right now are: Vick, Austin, Hillis, Best, Mathews - Dropping: Bradford, Moss, Gonzalez, Cooley

I've been offered: Phillip Rivers (QB), Vernon Davis (TE), Marques Colston (WR), 1st round pick (3rd overall) for Mike Vick (QB), Peyton Hillis (RB) and my 4th rounder.

With the 3rd pick I could take Antonio Gates, Mike Williams, Wes Welker, Brandon Lloyd, Josh Freeman, Eli Manning, Knowshon Moreno...

On paper, my team becomes a lot better from top to bottom. I'll have 3rd, 11th, and 14th picks and will have the core of my team after the 2nd round... However relying on Mathews/Best is tough. I'd have to draft a RB with my 11th and it would be someone like Benson, Felix Jones, or Green-Ellis.

What do you think? Is it worth trading Vick and taking a hit at RB?

10 Teams 5x5 Roto keeper league. Currently in 3rd place. Looking to build around a nice young core at pitching. I've been offered Jennings (who I just picked up off WW) for Cahill. I love Cahill and have been interested in him all season, and although he is struggling mightly now, I feel like I'm buying crazy low on him. My keepers would be: Howard, Ellsbury, Upton, and one of Phillips or Lind - Halladay, Grienke, Buchholz, Cahill

My team:

C - J.P. Arencibia

1B - Ryan Howard, Adam Lind

2B - Brandon Phillips

3B - Neil Walker

SS - Elvis Andrus

OF - Jacoby Ellsbury, Justin Upton, Desmond Jennings (Lind is also OF)

SP: Halladay, Grienke, Scherzer, (Ervin) Sanatana, Ogando, Norris, Danks, Worley, Buchholz

RP: Walden, Storen, Guerra

What do you guys think? Thank you!

I need help with this trade. Currently in 3rd in a 10 team standard 5X5 Roto Keeper Pool. I'd trade Andre Ethier and Vance Worley for Chad Billingsley and Jon Papelbon. I'm in need of SVs, IP, and am last in ERA + WHIP. Is Worley the real deal? As of right now I'd be giving him the better players. Ethier is currently on my bench with Jennings playing so well and I'd have a nice keeper prospect in Billingsley if he pulls it together.

My team:

C - J.P. Arencibia

1B - Ryan Howard, Adam Lind

2B - Brandon Phillips

3B - Neil Walker

SS - Elvis Andrus

OF - Jacoby Ellsbury, Andre Ethier, Justin Upton, Brandon Jennings (Lind is also OF)

SP: Halladay, Grienke, Scherzer, Zimmermann, Ogando, Norris, Danks, Worley

RP: Walden, Storen, Venters
