Time to Reflect

Now that the All Star Break has arrived, it’s a good time for fantasy owners, both first and last place alike, to do some self analysis.

By now, you at least have an inkling of where your fantasy team stands, your strengths and weaknesses, and what you need to do to move forward.

Do the math – Are you so behind in steals that you would need Lou Brock and Rickey Henderson on you team in order to dig out of the cellar?  If so, evaluate the impact of punting a category (something I’m not necessarily a fan of – but I’ve seen it work if the rest of your team is completely solid).

Start Trade Talks – We’ve all had the annoying experience of making a trade offer only to have it linger and linger without any response.  Trading can often take a bit of time before a deal is struck, so get going at least a few weeks ahead of your league’s trading deadline.

Target Splits – Some players can be awfully predictable when it comes to their performance pre & post-All Star Break.  Consider trading for underperformers who are historically second half players and selling high on players who are quick starters but tail off.

Don’t Be Complacent – So you are in first place with a 10-point lead and you’re feeling pretty good about yourself, right?  Don’t be complacent and think you can coast to the league championship.  All it takes is one big injury or and extended slump from a few of your stars before those 10 points can evaporate in the blink of an eye.  Keep on top of things, that’s how you got there in the first place.

Don’t Give Up – Things may look awfully grim, but there are numerous instances of fantasy bouncebacks.  I was in 6th place as late as mid-August one year only to battle back and finish 1 point out of first.  It happens all the time, and this year it just may be you.
