FAAB waiver wire

jackal40ster  3/28/2013 8:26 AM

Hey Everyone,

I just completed my first rotisserie draft last night, and I have some questions regarding using the FAAB waiver wire with a $100 budget.

Our league has ten teams, and its 6 x 6 with OPS and Holds. Our settings are set so that players who are undrafted go on waivers. Lance Berkman and Ryan Madson are both available in the waiver wire. I was thinking of picking them up since I am kinda short on 1b depth and saves. I will move ortiz to the DL, and drop Dempster.  How much should I bid, or should I just stay put with the team I have?  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Here is my team:

10 Teams | 10 Hitters Per Team [6 Active = HR RBI SB R BA OPS] | 8 Pitchers Per Team [6 Active = SV ERA WHIP SO HLD QS]

Those are my other options.

Valverde is also available. I just checked.

mbuser   3/28/2013 1:24 PM

I wouldn't bid anything for Madson. Veras is a full-time closer, Boggs is closing currently, Fujikawa will eventually close, DET has a current closing committee... Berkman will be good when he's healthy, so I might throw a few bucks out there for him.

jackal40ster  3/28/2013 2:58 PM

Thanks for your advice! I ll try for Veras if he clears waivers
