I seriously don't even know who he is. Should I pick him up if available? I grabbed the big redhead from the Dodgers a couple weeks ago as well

If he’s still available your league is garbage

haha...maybe so, but it's got a heavy upper mid-west and west coast fanbase making up most of it.

I have 3 guys on the IL right now, and can't add any others unless I drop someone. I have Wander Franco, Albies, and Clay Holmes on IL right now. We only get 4 bench spots also, and I use up 3 of them for pitchers. Currently I have Schwarber on the bench as my only alternate position player. I could drop another pitcher to get him, but I'll miss out on those points for the next 2-3 weeks. Maybe I should drop Holmes since he's sucked the past few weeks, and he's going to miss 2 weeks also.
Edit: Either Holmes or Bednar (closer for Pittsburgh)

Oh shit……if MS comes back…,watch the fuck out! (But I’m still not expecting till next year).
Alex A doing work in the streets again with that MHarris contract…..and more than anything people are finally pointing out these guys are getting mostorous raises early…..and you never know (look at Siroka….we offered 1 of these to him 2 years ago…..he turned it down and has only made 2.8 mil each of last 2 years. His was 7-8 yr 100+ mil can’t remember exactly but Siroka bet on himself then has been hurt. He will make less next year at arbitration unless he can come back and show something.

What's the word on Soroka? Looks like he's healthy enough to come back now, but was kept at the AAA level. The Braves top 4 pitchers are legit. Think they'll bring him back up in place of Odorizzi, or leave him down at AAA?

we will know in the next or so. I still expect next year (I am not getting hope up b/c MS history) BUT we will see.
I would bring him up and give him a chance before the playoffs as you can never have to much good pitching.I would TRY to bring him back over Odorizzi. I don't see JO being much help in the playoffs honestly.

Yeah, I'm curious if they'll either go to a 4 man rotation in the playoffs, or just play it by ear with Odorizzi (assuming Soroka isn't brought up).we will know in the next or so. I still expect next year (I am not getting hope up b/c MS history) BUT we will see.

However, maybe they're just giving him another start or 2 in the minors to sharpen up before they bring him up.
I picked him up in my fantasy league, but may drop him if he's not called up soon, since I could use pitching help, and he's not even on the MLB roster at the moment.
