Josh

Best saves stashes for the end of the season in H2H league? Knebel? Capps? Others?

Brad Johnson

12:31

Capps, Reed, maybe Zych in case Diaz goes down

Hand in case Capps doesn't recover?

Bush

Edubray Ramos

Cam rhymes with Ham

12:32

In a league with holds and saves, K/9, would you rather have siegriest, Holland, or bedrosian?

Brad Johnson

12:32

Bedrosian

Thompson

12:32

I see a lot of Graveman talk. Suppose I was nervous about my overall SP. (1) Do I drop Nick Castellanos and add Graveman? (2) Graveman or Bundy?

Brad Johnson

12:32

I'd keep Castellanos unless he's your 4th 3B or something silly like that

While I think Graveman could be an ace, he's also probably just Graveman

12:33

I prefer him to Bundy though

Matt

12:33

Pick one light-to-moderately owned hitter and pitcher that, by midseason, will be fixtures on everybody's roster. Could be a prospect, or a hurt guy, or a guy currently blocked by a vet, etc...

Brad Johnson

12:33

Can I stick with the Graveman/Morton theme?

It's my chat. So yes, I can

12:34

I really think Aaron Altherr is playing daily and batting 3-5 by June

Matt Joyce is batting leadoff!

Kevin

12:34

Thoughts on late demotees Park and Vogelbach - either one worth stashing?

Brad Johnson

12:34

Should be able to leave em on the wire in most leagues

Brad Johnson:Delino DeShields as Dan Szymborski:Nick Markakis

Brad Johnson

12:34

Nick Markakis is a 3.5 OF

12:35

he can start, but you really don't want it to happen

Pat

12:35

Hey Brad. I'm in my first fantasy league this year on Ottoneu. I like my team, but I have both Grandal and Lucroy as catchers. I figured I could just play matchup with them like yesterday, but they're both 20$ and it seems like a big waste of resources. Do you agree?

Brad Johnson

12:35

Yuuuup

Good news though, catchers retain decent value in ottoneu because of the deep roster

12:36

so you can hold one until injury or a good offer forces a move

Lars

12:36

Do you believe in a Kiermaier breakout? 20 HR and 30 steals?

Brad Johnson

12:36

20 HR?

15 and 25 for me

Moelicious

12:36

Should I drop Greinke for DeShields?

Brad Johnson

12:36

Leave

Bob Ross

12:36

H2H pts. Drop Manea for Mortons two starts next week?

Brad Johnson

12:36

That's tricky

12:37

I think you could. I also think my fellow analysts might scorn me for saying that

dave in slc

12:37

We have a late auction draft still due to live and getting guys schedules to line up. do you pay up for posey, grandall types in 2 catcher NL only keeper or are there late guys you like? Have Hedges kept already

Brad Johnson

12:37

I like Jett Bandy a lot

but I'm inclined to get a good C in these formats

Brian

12:37

Just wanted to say thanks for doing this chat! You da man

Brad Johnson

12:38

And on that note, it's time for rapid fire round

Thanks for participating, see ya all next week!
