Lots of White Sox so if they do well your team should be great. Overall it's a very decent team. Best of luck.
I do my fantasy draft on Sunday in a 10 team league.
Thanks! Good luck to you as well. You can never go wrong with a roster full of White Sox (with the notable exception of every single white sox roster from 1918-2004 and then again from 2006-2021.)

How many teams? Is it points or roto? Is there a innings minimum to hit? Hitting looks good, you may struggle with SP if you need say 1000 minimum innings pitched. Should've drafted Anne Hathaway.

I had both Luis Robert and Eloy Jimenez on my team last year. When Eloy Jimenez got back from his injury he was terrific. Still annoyed the Cubs traded him.
Buxton will be great for steals batting average and fielding so he's a great pick as well and Perez should give you plenty of power for the lineup.

There are 10 teams and it’s a roto league. Not sure if there is an innings minimum. I read through all the rules and parameters quickly, so I probably overlooked that piece. In leagues like this, would I get disqualified if i don’t hit that minimum, or would it just be some sort of points penalty? Maybe I should consider trading for a more durable starting pitcher.
Can’t believe I didn’t get Anne! She is always the centerpiece of any fantasy.

I despise roto leagues. It's basically like the old infomercial. Set it and forget it.
Get in a second H2H league, either points or categories is fine. I think you'll enjoy that much more.

Thanks for the tip! I will definitely do that. And maybe I can be a bit smarter and draft some decent pitching next time!

The lineup looks pretty dang good, but depending on the pitching settings and which ratios you have, you may struggle with pitching. I’ve done a fair bit of fantasy baseball and pitching always seemed to give me trouble haha. I don’t necessarily see a bonafide ace on your squad, someone you can rely on every week. Overall, not terrible though

Giovanny GallegosThat’s an all-star team from top to bottom! Very nice. I’m disturbed by the complete lack of any White Sox players… but Escobar came up with the Sox so I’ll let it slide lol.
Congrats on snagging the big fish, Trout! He went really really late in our draft. I guess no one believes he can stay healthy. But he doesn’t even need to play over 120 games or so in order to be a huge contributor. Dude can hit 5 home runs in 4 AB’s.

I drafted 10th out of 10 teams both him and Harper were available, i couldn't pass that up
I almost had Tim Anderson but he went just before one of my picks.

I'd be down to discuss the activity level required for a year long fantasy league, versus a weekly league with inning caps and move limitations, but I don't have any clue what you're trying to say.
Care to clarify?
