I think BORED and BBDL just have stupid league names. Poor branding is the issue.

But really, probably just one too many leagues were spun up back in the day and it was never sustainable. There were people here who signed up for 3 or 4 of them - that's fucked up and would never last, particularly when they are 20 and 30 player dynasty leagues with full year involvement and prospect drafts and all that shit.

L54 is right that the solution is basically culling owners from one or maybe two of the leagues.

3-4 isn't that many

It’s better to troll those sites I’d think… that’s where I almost joined a league and it seemed pretty legit. Probably would help if we did a buy in

Buy-in and Dynasty just don't go together. Multi year rebuilds are no longer worth it but so many Dynasty players love them.

[Laika]

moved Robbie Ray, Eloy, Bregman, and Luis Urias for Cole, Bichette, Brandon Lowe, Bohm. H2H dynasty.

How did I do?

Looks good to me but Bohm is probably useless

Possibly, but I can stash Bohm on the bench and there is a good chance Bohm end up > Urias

I have a chance at Jo Adell, O'Neil Cruz, or Corbin Carroll. It's a points league so OBP is important. How would you rank them?

For OBP- Carroll, Cruz, Adell

For Fantasy asset value and best players on a Team. IMO- Cruz, Carroll, Adell...

[FantasyNewb]

Thanks. Would you place Carroll above Brennan Davis for an OBP league?

I wouldn't, I have Davis over Carroll... But remember, I am just one of many scrubs on an internet chat board... However, I think if you did some deep dives, you would come to the same conclusion. Although, with those two, I don't think there is much separation.

Carroll has the higher floor, Davis the higher ceiling - the question is whether Davis will have a swing and miss issue that will limit the ceiling. Most evaluators believe he will continue to develop and adapt and the swing and miss will be addressed.

Generally go with the big power guy, which is Davis.

Yeah, I like high ceiling guys as prospects. Thanks for the advice.

18 team h2h dynasty - my team includes Vlad, Tatis Jr, Acuna, Eloy, Torkelson, so I'm ready to compete now
Last two spots on my roster comes down to Corey Kluber, JJ Bleday, Ryan Weathers, and Genesis Cabrera.
The only reason Cabrera is on this list is I've only kept two RP (Hader and Romano), but I spent a first round pick a couple years back on Bleday (passing on Riley Greene), and I'd hated to compound that error by leaving him unprotected and having him breakout for someone else.
Kluber vs Weathers three years from now is a no brainer, but I'm afraid I'll be attempting to trade for a Kluber at the deadline if I keep Weathers over him.

Since you’re competing I wouldn’t worry too much about trying to protect Bleday in case he breaks out.

I’d probably keep Kluber and Cabrera. Kluber signing with the Rays is a confidence boost for 2022.

Kluber and Cabrera

I'm not convinced you'll ever miss Weathers in an 18-team league.

20-team dynasty, pretty good team and I have a bunch of shitbags to round my rotation out with. Please keep two:

Nasty Nestor
Cueto
Wacha
Cole Irvin
Yarbrough
Kwang-hyun Kim

[AdamGreenwood]

Keep Nestor Cortes Jr. (I assume that's Nasty Nestor).
Dump everyone else. Probably someone better on the waiver wire.
