I don’t think that would stop any moves from happening for too long. Bad business decisions are tough to hide when the guy pitching is the difference between wins & loses. I’m not touting his downfall. I just play in really deep leagues like I assume most on here do. From what I seen it’s worth some conversation/speculating. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Root Admin Patrick Bateman 7,230 Posted March 31, 2018 Root Admin Share Posted March 31, 2018 Knebel struck out the side for a save after blowing his first opportunity yesterday. Parker let the first two on but K's Piscotty and Chapman. Almost out of it. Link to post Share on other sites

I fully understand it’s only 2 games into the longest season in pro sports, but dude looked terrible. It echos what he showed in the spring too. I have a bid on Kontos in for tomorrow. Would love to stack him and Strickland early on because of this thread. As a rivero owner I'm bidding on Kontos as well. Rivero flat out doesn't look right and hasn't all spring. No life on his fastball. Link to post Share on other sites
hangin n wangin 1,703 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I’ll definitely monitor Kontos... but as a Rivero owner I’m not picking him up after one game. Not many people out there are looking at Kontos this early after the year Rivero had last year. If you get him this early, that’s cool, but that’s going to be a long hold for a set up man... if it even happens. Link to post Share on other sites

I think if something is up with Rivero we'll know within a couple of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites
thefamily79 195 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Or we find out Rivero has been dealing with some mysterious injury. I'd rather grab Kontos now and drop him once Rivero puts up a good outings or two. Link to post Share on other sites

Having both isn't a bad idea if your roster permits. Link to post Share on other sites

kidtwentytwo 5,383 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Kontos is fairly average. Even if rivero loses the position, it’s likely temporary 1 Link to post Share on other sites
