Players to Buy Low and Sell High
Bryce Elder (SP – ATL)
“Bryce Elder is probably the featured image on the Sell High Wikipedia page right now. Does anyone really think he is THIS good? Probably not. But pitching has been whacky this season, and the bottom line is he has a sub-2.00 ERA right now. For fantasy managers desperate for pitching, they can talk themselves into Elder the same way Detroit Lions fans talked themselves into thinking their team drafting Jahmyr Gibbs at No. 12 overall was a good thing. Edler’s xERA is 4.59, and his xBA, xSLG, and xwOBA all indicate regression is coming. Aim high for a Tim Anderson swap and see what that manager says, but be willing to settle for someone like Ke’Bryan Hayes.”

MacKenzie Gore (SP – WAS)
“I know MacKenzie Gore has a 3.29 ERA and three wins on the year, but he has a 1.46 WHIP, and that will eventually come back to haunt him. Gore is still a 2 pitch pitcher on an awful team (no matter how many times they beat the Mets). Perhaps you can package him while he still has some of that old prospect shine on him with another arm to move up a tier of SP or get some UT bat help. ”
