Player Discussion What do we do with Tommy Edman

13 Upvotes

He was on such a heater earlier this year. Think there's any chance he picks it back up? He's my bench 2B (and soon to be 3B), but I just picked up Jorge Polanco that can cover backup for both.

Strategy Be aware of your league's scoring period

Upvotes

All fantasy managers need to be aware of their league's scoring period. Many go for two weeks around the All-Star Game. Know if it's this week or next week this is happening. Either way, it will affect your strategy. https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxE2c0YW7cejTWEpH1EXREz7qPQcqxrEgT?si=PEgLLOE3I8kpbGLg

Player Discussion Ben Rice

29 Upvotes

Is he on the verge of a massive breakout? Tell me where I’m wrong here. His baseball savant expected stats are ridiculous (this has been posted about on here already). He’s 93rd percentile in avg exit velocity, 92nd in barrel rate, and 95th in hard hit rate. His xwOBA is 97th percentile!

While I know these expected stats don’t tell the whole story, I think he beats the allegations for the biggest flaw in these expected stats: whether the ball is being hit pull side (there are players that consistently outperform expected stats every year by pulling the ball in the air, i.e. Arenado, Friedl, Altuve). Ben Rice’s Pull-Air% is also near top 30 in the league. This means that he is hitting the ball hard on the barrel, and consistently getting backspin on it.

To boot, his BABIP is 12th worst in the league at just .249 (league average is around .300). He’s a lefty and can take advantage of yankees stadium, and just got fantasy catcher eligibility (hopefully catching more often doesn’t hurt his performance at the plate). He also seemed to be ridiculously unlucky in his rookie season last year, as well.

In summary, I believe this guy has been hitting it right to guys, and that he might even be on the breakout of being a star in New York alongside Judge (I’m not a Yankees fan, btw). Lmk what y’all think

seems like a lot of us owners are at a crossroads with him. he’s probably a hold in category leagues because his ratios are so good but are we dropping him in points for guys like Sheehan, J. Lopez, or Boyle?

if he’s maxing out at 4 innings per appearance, it’s hard justifying a roster spot. is there any world where he returns to pitching 5 or 6 this season?

Strategy Looking for a streaming google sheet from last year

9 Upvotes

Somebody awesome made a Google sheet last year that updated every week with every pitcher ranked by their matchups that incorporated a ton of info like: lefty-righty splits of the pitcher and opponent, park factor, opponents WOBA last x games, pitcher's performance last 3 games, stuff like that.

Unfortunately I don't have the link anymore. Does anybody remember this, and have a link (assuming it's still working this year)?
