do you post here and seriously think that's a good way to evaluate a player?

Re: ***Official July Fantasy Baseball Thread***
 

I've got Uggla and Cano in a 5 X 5 keeper league that uses both 2B and MI. My team is pretty much out of it for this year so should I sell Uggla high since he is having a good year or do we think he's gonna be a consistant offensive performer for years to come?

watching the sox this year, everyone's approach with RISP looks different. there is such a thing as situational hitting, even if things like RBIs are largely a product of variance and opportunities provided by others. most of the sox look like they're more interested in drawing a walk with men on than getting a hit.

for fantasy purposes, if manny is going to go up with ortiz on second, never ever EVER swing at a 3-0 fastball and settle for a walk, yeah, it's important.

Re: ***Official July Fantasy Baseball Thread***
 

sorry dude, i have been really cranky lately, some stuff totally unrelated to sports. i apologize.

there's a long thread on SoSH about the sox trend of walking more in RBI situations and magadan allegedly 'building a lineup of leadoff hitters.' that's an exaggeration, and we all know the sox will not continue to run as bad as they have... i dunno exactly what i am getting at here but it does seem to me that the middle of the order guys for the sox have a more passive approach in RBI situations this year. i watch all the games and i keep up with the stats, maybe i'm just reading too much into it, maybe not
