Just drafted in a 10 team league. I had the 4th pick. Thoughts on my team: C-W. Contreas (STL) W. Contreas (MIL) 1B-J. Abreau 2B_G. Torres SS-Tatis 3B-J. Ramirez OF-Arozarena, Carroll, J. McCarthy Util-Ohtani, Estrada B-Cronenworth SP-Verlander, Bieber, C. Javier, F. Valdez, Manaea, Senga RP-Barlow, Kimbrel, A. Diaz, A. Munoz, A. Lange OF is a little week but I like my IF and SP. Pretty alright. I wouldn't worry about OF, today's game is thrown back to investing in the larger depth gaps around the IF. I'm skewing younger & thus hopefully healthier - injuries have murdered my teams recent years. C Rutschmann, Moreno 1B Pasquantino, Donovan 2B Chisholm Jr. 3B Riley, Walker SS Turner, Peraza OF Jimenez, Merrifield, Mitchell, Ozuna Util Nootbaar, Tovar SP Nola, Manoah, Snell, Rasmussen RP Barlow, Robertson, Fairbanks, Finnegan I'm already seeing potential holes with guys having lukewarm springs... I have to give it at least 3 weeks. A guy could win MVP having a dead April.

I have 4 leagues, these are the guys I'm most invested in:
C- Perez (had a great WBC, could bounce back from in injured and down year)
1B:Olsen, Casas
2b: All over the place and happy with any: Vargas, Semien, Albies. Stashing Grisham.
3b: Waited for the most part, got Suarez and his 30 home runs in the mid teens of drafts.
SS: Volpe, Tovar
OF: Alvarez, Arozarena, Kelenic
SP: Ray, Castillo, Snell, Musgrove, Detmers, Hunter Brown.
RP: In a mix of Saves/Save+holds leagues so my teams don't really have the same RPs.
Many others I'm high in but I didn't get them in more than 1 league.

Quite good, especially the infield. You got the Contreas brothers. Let's see if Tatis can tear it up after he suspension.

Hoping Tatis comes back a little more mature and with something to prove.

I screwed up during my draft. Had Robbie Ray queued to draft. Read the little blurb next to Logan Webb and accidentally drafted Webb - had him last year and was not interested in him.
Webb with 12 Ks in 6 innings, but left down 0-3 with a runner on 1st . Brebbia just let the run in, so no QS, likely a loss. And my opponent has Gerrit Cole going for the shutout.

So it's kind of confusing with daily fantasy - I didn't realize that I signed up for it (ESPN H/H). And I have Ohtani, who I have to designate as a pitcher when he pitches and in the lineup when he doesn't. Transactions have to be done 1 day ahead.
So today I moved Ohtani from pitcher to hitter but don't have a starter for today or an extra reliever to move into his slot. So it's either empty or I'll just have a starter who won't pitch today in the slot. But I have other starters who've already pitched, so it's just one more.

So ESPN fantasy, Ohtani considered as 1 player, not like Yahoo fantasy? In Yahoo fantasy daily, you can switch around right before the game starts.

It is too bad that Gunnar Henderson and Lourdes Gurriel Jr. were so bad in the beginning that I dropped them before that got hot. Both players now belong to someone else.

I can switch, but I don't get his batting points if I have him pitching. It's also a bit of a pain having a lineup opening to fill on those days. Doing much better in ESPN than Yahoo weekly right now. Two weeks ago I picked up Strohman in Yahoo, got distracted, saw he was pitching a great game and I hadn't gotten him in for his 2 start week. I angry dropped him - he had 59 points for the week, would have won me the week, and then I saw that he's got the most QS's and he got snatched up ASAP.

Didn't Ohtani leave the game early the last start? Hope he is not injured. He's just incredible, both pitching and hitting.

I'm not happy Mookie is in the HR derby, though. In ESPN, I'm 10-4 with Ohtani. In Yahoo, 6-8. Lost every squeaker. All I needed was Ohtani to be limited to a double in his final AB. Hits it 454 feet on a 1-2 count.

Probably my worst showing in my regular league since I joined. Other than Gleyber, My guys can't hit. Severino and Lance Lynn are disappointment. I don't think I will see deGrom. Not technically, but just as well I am eliminated from the playoff.

Good chance I can hand you your first loss in our league. Payback Almost. You have one more chance before the season end.
Interestingly, 4th to 6th places all have the same record of 8-10, and 7th place has 7-11. Very tight race for the final playoff spot.

Double damn. This has the makings of 2 years ago where I dominated all season and lost in the championship game. By a lot.
