While I typically write articles giving micro-level advice on which players to add via trade or free agency, I have lately been dabbling in process-related pieces. This is another in that series, which includes recent pieces on how I evaluate hitters and pitchers. For this article, I’m going to cover a typical 24 hour-span and how I manage my teams.

We should expect nothing less than another tricky run on waivers since a number of the players we’re fighting for are still waiting for those ahead of them to be ruled out (or deemed healthy). Some could also be shipped away by Tuesday’s 4p ET trade deadline, vacating a wake of opportunity behind them. We’ll do our best to navigate those… Source link
