There are certain players who are undroppable so you can't drop really good players to waivers.
Like Jadey said, if you get to the playoffs and have a lot of players whose club is tanking for a better draft position or resting starters for the post season, you might as well forfit if you can't stream.
Can you explain why streaming is a strategy that TFP leagues do not like to employ?

To me fantasy baseball should be like owning a real team. You draft the best team you can and trade around if needed. Going into F/A to pick up the hot players or in H2H games to help your stats by wins or whatever, is cheap. To me it shows you didn't have faith in the team you drafted.
I also think it creates isolationism and takes away a lot of the fun that is trades and shit talk. The biggest problem is the majority, maybe even 90% may agree with that, but once the season starts and 1 person starts the dumping and picking up everyone else will just to keep up.
But that's just my 2 cents.
