MLS Fantasy Boss Round 1 Captain poll
Question for a NOOB fanatasy player but longtime RSL fan – I thought putting the arm band on Hamid was wise, but everyone is talking forwards. The EPNR has GKs usually at a solid 5. What am I missing?
Forwards and Midfielders have a higher ceiling. A keeper might grab a 5 but a forward could earn a 10 from a goal, assist, and playing 90 min.
People also tend to worry about the 1 goal and missing out on the +4 clean sheet bonus.
Capping a keeper is definitely a strategy, but one that usually has more risk.
Great question!
Thanks Dashdar – Still Learning but I think I’m getting it. I’ll admit, as a statistician, I’ve spent the majority of the work week combing through your charts. Awesome site.
Well as a statistical layman, I appreciate that.
