MLS Fantasy: The Problem of Massive Bye Weeks

Related Topics: Bye (sports), Fantasy, Javier Morales

One of the big problems Fantasy Managers are going to have to deal with for the rest of the season are large bye weeks. We just had our first one, and judging by the scores it was brutal for almost all players. Scores were depressed by the combination of large hits, early subs, and of course the undisclosed injury (Hi Stevie G!). It didn’t help that outside of Pontius and Villa the main fantasy targets did poorly: Sapong, Plata, Javier Morales, Mike Magee, and Giovanni Dos Santos all posted scores of 2. One of the six matches was played in a lake.
