Robles was really hitting HRs the first month of the season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Even if he only hits .240 if he can score 100+ Runs and go 25/25 in HR/SB that's a pretty fantastic rookie campaign. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(Although I think 25 bombs is a bit much).What round was wil Myers going in? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cesare13 1,257 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 1 sb in the last month? .200 over that span? If there isnt a convincing improvement in june,he'll be hard to justify holding in keepers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He’s 22 with loads of talent and has a 162 average 21 HR/21 SB. He’s clearly a hold in keepers until the end of the season to gauge his value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The overall numbers are useful,but that 1 bag worries me. He HAS to be stealing. Im worried the 8th spot (not 2 or 9) is rwally affecting that. Gonna have to wair amd see,cerrainly nor dropping yet.

Although the huge drop in steals is worrisome. Also depends on the keeper format to give it a year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also depends on the keeper format to give it a year. Steals come in spurts. He’s gotta get on base. I agree it’s format dependent. You’re probably not keeping him in a keep 3. But still, I’m not making that decision in June. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJoint 4,181 Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) I'm not the most patient owner out there, but I've seen enough in fits and starts from Robles to hold on in 12-team. He's not great right now but he hasn't seriously tanked either. Too much potential here to drop just yet. He hasn't truly gotten "hot" yet either - and I do think that's a matter of time as long as he continues to get ABs, wherever in the lineup said ABs may be.

KingJoffrey 922 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I dropped him in a 12 team league with a short bench and counts walks. He usually bats 7th in a not so deep lineup. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daethfromabove1979 874 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 What is with his hard hit % of only 22%, that is terrible. I'm going to keep him around for a bit longer because the counting stats are respectable but his slash line leaves a lot to be desired - 235/309/419 is pretty gross.

fourstar 264 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Been trying to unload him for peanuts and no one is interested (redraft of course). Probably hitting the wire when Springer returns Quote Link to post Share on other sites

20Duval904 142 Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Long-term I view him as Starling Marte Scores runs, hits 15-20 HR, steals 30+ bags, low walk rate, solid K rate, and hits .280 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
summersoff7 1,105 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 it's time to cut bait fellas (12 teamers). he's just not ready 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
High&Inside 1,304 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Just now, summersoff7 said: it's time to cut bait fellas (12 teamers). he's just not ready I'm beginning to lean this way as well. We're mid June and holding onto a player for his possible upside becomes a detriment this time of year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tonycpsu 5,392 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 OF44 in 5x5 according to Yahoo, counting multi eligible OF that are probably being started at another position. I just can't see the case for dropping. Benching, sure, but when he's playing this far below expectation and still fringe must-start even in 3 OF leagues, you have to find a way to hold. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NolanRyan 77 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 With the power and steal upside, I will hold onto this guy for a long time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jb_power 3,512 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 had him benched for the past week or so. thought he would be 1 of my 11 keepers in a deep 14 teamer but he's sure doing all he can to make it onto the cut list Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daethfromabove1979 874 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 You can only wait so long for a guy to get hot, he has been below average all year and isn’t showing any signs of life. Also hitting 9th in the order is a fantasy killer, don’t be afraid to drop in re-drafts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MichiganxTrumbull 24 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Are we moving on from him in 10 team re-drafts? really thought we would get at minimum 260 with speed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
