2019-08-26 13:00:00 (link to chat)In a keep forever league with no salaries, I traded Yordan Alvarez for Trevor Williams earlier this year. I've been the laughingstock of the league ever since and no one will trade with me now because they all expect to get similar favorable deals. What's been your worst dynasty trade of 2019?
(Haddy from Minnesota)
At least it's not as bad as trading Yordan Alvarez for Josh Fields!

We all have those, and it's part of the fun/terribleness of dynasty. This season we thought we made out like bandits getting Wenceel Perez and Jhon Torres for Jorge Soler. Like three years ago I traded Rafael Devers, Jose Berrios, Michael Conforto for Nolan Arenado, which at the time looked like a no-brainer, but has not aged particularly well. (Mark Barry)
2019-08-14 13:00:00 (link to chat)Today is my birthday and I need help choosing my final start (the dynasty league I run and might finally make the playoffs in after four years has a weekly start cap) this week. My options are: Trevor Williams @LAA, Rick Porcello BAL, Tanner Roark HOU, Jake Arrieta SD, Jordan Lyles @WAS. Who do I start? The playoffs are on the line.
(Jordan from South Dakota)
There aren't a lot of great options here. I think all told I'd go with Lyles but it also kind of depends what categories you're gunning for. (Craig Goldstein)
2019-05-03 13:00:00 (link to chat)In a dynasty league where I'm rebuilding and all my pitchers have been converted to relievers, I recently traded Yordan Alvarez for Trevor Williams. My second best hitter is either Byron Buxton or Avisail Garcia so Yordan seemed expendable to me. Did I do well here?
(Aaron from Minnesota)
I like Williams in deep leagues (it's not clear to me how deep the league is here), and uh, I'm not sure Avisail Garcia is a good reason to declare anyone expendable, so I'm not sure about the logic. It's fine, I guess. Alvarez has been a freak at the plate this year in Triple-A, and while I think it might be "fine" for you, I think there's more downside than upside going forward. (Craig Goldstein)
2019-04-24 13:00:00 (link to chat)Trevor Williams is Max Scherzer in disguise, prove me wrong.
(Jordan from South Dakota)
That disguise includes a colored contact, I guess? (Craig Goldstein)
2019-04-19 18:00:00 (link to chat)Rather desperate in the pitching department....my hitting is deep and solid even with Ohtani, Upton, and Andujar hurt. Jose Quintana is my 2nd best pitcher, 3rd best would be Trevor Williams.
(Vic from Baltimore)
Then Waino should help for now. Odorizzi might be a streaming option against teams that might be more susceptible to his high fastball approach. (Scott Delp)
2013-06-07 10:30:00 (link to chat)Thoughts on the Marlins first day?
(Joe from Miami)
The Fish had four picks and landed Colin Moran (3b, UNC) in the first, Matt Krook (lhp, St. IGnatius Prep (CA)) in the supplemental-first, Trevor Williams (rhp, Arizona St) in the second, and Colby Suggs (rhp, Arkansas) in the supp-second. This is a pretty nice haul if you believe Krook is a starter and Williams can miss more bats as he refines.

I have some concerns as to Krook's signability away from Oregon, but have been told by a couple people that they think he's ready to play pro ball and will skip Eugene. Moran is arguably the best hit tool at the college ranks (I might like Peterson a little better) and Suggs has a really big arm and hard breaking ball, but lots of issues commanding both. Some risk, but a nice collection of talent and a broad portfolio with different levels of upside and risk across position types. Looks good to me. (Nick Faleris on the MLB Draft)
