Tout Wars Transactions on April 1 (No Foolin’!)

Joaquin Benoit, Tigers, Tout Wars Transactions

It’s Tout Wars transactions time! Each week, I’ll try to post the FAAB results from the Tout Wars Mixed League, so readers can get a sense of what the writers are trying to accomplish. Ideally, I’ll get this up early in the morning, so you can see before you make your own add/drops.

In my case, I needed to get a hitter to replace Adam Eaton (elbow) who could be out until late May. So I just bid $1 on James Loney, who I’m hoping will experience some sort of freak metamorphosis moving over from the NL to the AL and the West Coast to the East Coast.

(Also, before you start scanning, Astros OF Justin Maxwell, who hit two triples and scored a pair of runs against the Rangers Sunday night, was already owned by defending champion Cory Schwartz of MLB.com. He won him for $2 in the auction.)

Don’t forget to get in on some Opening Day Daily Fantasy Baseball action over at Draft Day!

Patrick Davitt ended up spending $7 on Joaquin Benoit of the Tigers, obviously in hopes of getting in on some saves, while Detroit figures out their closer situation.

 

Hopefully, these Tout Wars transactions will help give you a leg up on your Fantasy Baseball competition! Good luck this season!
