ANECDOTE

Minor-League Scouting Trip Report

  • Frank visited Somerset Patriots and saw several notable prospects live, including Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz sustaining 95–97 mph into the seventh.
  • He flagged Rodriguez-Cruz as a dynasty roster target after nine strikeouts.
ADVICE

Move On From Seth Lugo

  • Drop or bench Seth Lugo after persistent poor second-half results and elevated hard contact.
  • Replace him with high-upside waiver arms like McLean, Waldrep, or Schlittler.
ADVICE

Grab Hot Outfielders Before Runs End

  • Add Jacob Marsee if available; he's hot and under-rostered in shallower leagues.
  • Prefer Brenton Doyle over Adolis Garcia given upcoming Rockies home stretch.
