Starting to hate H2H Points leagues.

So here we are, just finished up week 14. This is the 4th time I finished with the 2nd most points scored for the week, and I still lost the match. I have the 2nd most points scored in the league, and I'm tied for 7th place. One of the teams tied for 1st place is 7th in the league in total points scored. I think it's too dependent on the match-up, which is total luck of the draw. In my hockey league last year, we played a 2nd match each week against the league average because of this, so at least the losing team would get a win against the league. The problem with that is the teams at the bottom got demoralized quickly because the losses were adding up quick, at 2 per week. So what's the fix here? Eliminate the H2H and just go with total points? Switch to roto league? This is getting very frustrating.

✂️ The Cut List - Time To Let Go?

Hey everyone... Jamie (u/BB_Jimbo) from RotoBaller here, and we're back with the 13th edition of The Cut List in 2026. We're into the second half of the season, and the All-Star Break is looming. A perfect time to take stock of our seasons so far.

Even if we're not dropping anyone, it's always fun to talk about cuts, whether or not we are actually ready to pull the trigger on certain players.

So what names are you chopping this week, or at least thinking about banishing to the waiver wire?

We of course can't cover every player that may be droppable (if any at this stage). Every league size and format differs, but we wrote about some strugglers that stood out. I'll be stopping by later today to answer any questions and check your requests. You can always reach me on X (@Baseball_Jimbo). Hope you enjoy and thanks for reading!

Yo! It's Scott Chu, Nate Schwartz, and the Pitcher List Crew here to talk about some baseball!

Happy holiday weekend to those of you in the States. I know Nate and I are both a bit busy, but we will be here and answering questions whenever possible.

  • Dansby Swanson actually had somewhat similar runs in 2021, 2022, and 2023. In those days, he was a lot younger and a top-50-100 hitter option most of the time. That is probably his ceiling now, as well.
  • Junior Caminero has improved dramatically in his decision-making against fastballs and is reaping what he hath sown.
  • James Wood continues to improve against breakers in power and contact ability while staying solid in decision-making. It is exceedingly rare for a player to improve so dramatically compared to what he did in the second half last year and we should all be extremely impressed. This is almost always a more gradual, bumpy process.
  • Conversely, Ben Rice has gone from excellent to average against breakers and it could explain his relatively slow month.
  • I'm not worried about whether Drake Baldwin can be good, but his generally poor decision-making combined with his recent contact struggles could make him a very streaky hitter.
  • Vlad Guerrero Jr.'s power has all but dried up, and he's not making great decisions, either. He's like a bigger, huskier version of Luis Arraez out there right now.
  • Jake McCarthy is playing way over what his ability markers suggest he should be, but speed and Coors can do a lot of things for you.

Just past halfway through the season, what are your best draft day decisions?

Apart from the obvious picks (like Yordan in the 2nd round or Misiorowski in the 9th), who are the middle or late-round picks that turned into solid everyday starters?

Also who are some bullets that you thought about drafting but ended up dodging?

EDIT: Talking more good draft calls that you held on to and what round you got them. Obviously have been a lot of good waiver pickups.
