MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 6 Team

You’ve read all the advice from the MLS Experts, you’ve chatted with other managers here at MLS Fantasy Boss, and you lurked around /r/FantasyMLS to get a heads up on all new developments. Now it’s time to sit back and relax and enjoy!

Holy crap! Round 5 sucked! Seriously that was practically depressing and I could not be more happy to have used my wild card. Pretty much every player on my team was transferred out and if my plans hold together, then I’ll be able to field 9-10 DGW players in Round 8 and 10.

Here is the MLS Fantasy Boss Round 6 Team. Go #TeamBoss!

MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 6 Team

Keepers

With Gonzalez potentially missing 1 or both of these DGW games, it was time to change gears an the ideal target was Melia. No, I don’t expect more PK stops in this round but he’ll have 3 DGWs between now and Round 10 and that I do like. Worra made my DGW cut and keeps his spot as my #2 keeper.

Defenders

Hedges, Coelho, and Sjoberg are the guys I’m counting on this round and I’m hoping that they all play the full 180 as well. Parker is the only player to survive my defensive purge and that was due to the upcoming Vancouver DGW. Colvey was brought in just because of his price so I could afford Hedges. EDIT: Swapped in Burch due to Sojberg injury (not pictured).

Midfielders

I’m quite pleased with my midfield setup this week. I picked Barrios as my Diaz replacement because he always seems to have a good game pop up when I overlook him so I’m hoping that 2 games w/o Diaz gives him some room to shine again. I decided to go with Zusi because I believe his has better point potential than Benny, even if the scores do not reflect that right now. Pappa was picked due to his bonus point generation and history on involvement with the few Colorado goals that have been scored. Valeri, no brainer and I picked up McCarty to cover for Valeri when he’s out for Round 7.

Forwards

I struggled with this position because I was very tempted by Wondo this week, but in the end, I went with Dwyer, Adi, and Urruti. I think all of them have a great chance for points this round and they will be involved in future DGWs so I don’t have to worry about switching them out any time soon.

Switcheroo

HECK NO! I got cute last week and screwed myself over when I needed to change my captain. This week I’m 100% set it and forget it.

Captain

No reason to be cute here. All the number point to Valeri and the best choice for captain.

That’s the MLS Fantasy Boss 2016 Round 6 Team. No don’t go changing your team to be exactly like mine, because there are a lot of viable players and strategies. How does that compare to your team?
