I've received multiple PM's thanking me for my "free of charge" MB FAAB service...so here goes...

For this player, I was waiting for his start yesterday before posting. JOE ROSS completely dominated the Brewers offense, and he's available in 87% of leagues!!!!!!!

Some other interesting tidbits about Ross:
***Ross has set a Nats record. He faced 51 batters before issuing the first walk of his MLB career.
***“Ross is one of the guys we need in the rotation,” Nats catcher Wilson Ramos said.
***Ross is one of only 3 Nats pitchers to pitch 8 innings in a game this year. He did so in his second career game
***Ross' XFIP after 2 games sits as 3rd best IN THE ENTIRE MAJOR LEAGUES. The only SPs with a better XFIP are Kershaw and Archer. Imagine picking up a FAAB SP who right now is better than Chris Sale

Ross receives the strongest buy rating I'm allowed to give for a SP. This is a pitcher who can literally bring your staff back from the dead. Picture a Chris Sale impact.

And yes. I already own Joe Ross.

Anyone listen?

Your alerts have been $$gold$$.... Franco, Ross, Correa....

How many more can you give away without costing yourself $$$....?

Mark nailed it with Maikel Franco, who's been the only bright spot for the Phillies this season.
Maybe this Ross guy will be the same.
Kudo's.

Joe Ross now has the lowest XFIP in the major leagues. IF he is still available in your league a "max bid" scenario has to be in play

Was wondering if you picked him on any teams before the season began and what % of owners recognized his talent before the season started.

Thanks for the info, I picked him up in a keeper league.

Do his minor league stats count when he gets sent back down soon when Strasburg returns?

Too bad Gekko didn't follow his own advice and even Bid 5 dollars on Ross or Franco. Just total bullshit from him as always as he never bids on the players he pumps up and yall dumd-asses fall for his bullshit . Fucking hilarious.

Ross will be a goldmine whenever he pitches. Between Strasburg getting hurt and Fister throwing an 84mph fastball , there will be plenty of opps for young Joe Ross. just remember...JOE ROSS WITH THE BEST XFIP IN THE MAJORS LEAGUES. BETTER THAN KERSHAW, SALE AND SCHERZER.
