Baseball America recently ranked Trea Turner ahead of Swanson on their mid season list. Would you agree for fantasy purposes? In a keeper would you rather have 2 years of Turner or 3 of Swanson?
Paul Sporer
11:05
For fantasy, I would lean toward Turner because steals are even rarer this year and that's his game

Hello, friend!
Paul Sporer

Yo!

You buying Robbie Ray in the 2nd half? Solid peripherals, bad BABIP...?
Paul Sporer
11:06
It's bad because he gets hammered. Has a 35% Hard contact rate every year. He's contributing to the BABIP, imo. I think he can be better than a 4.81 ERA, but I'm not seeing a big surge coming
Dave
11:06
where's Eno? FML
Paul Sporer
11:06
Oh.
Justin T

Pick up Didi Gregorius and drop Baez?
Paul Sporer
11:07
I like Didi, but Baez has a more diverse skill set

How would you rank Tillman, Chen and Moore RoS in a QS league?
Paul Sporer
11:08
Tillman, Moore, Chen. Could see Moore dealt, too

Any hope for Gio Gonzalez and Kazmir to turn things around ?
Paul Sporer
11:08
Sure, there's some. The HR wave caught Gio, though, so that sucks.
Eric

I'd love some keeper advice ahead of my leagues trade deadline. What 3 would you keep in 12 tm: Salazar (17th RD), CMart (16th), Stroman (18th), Fulmer (22nd), Urias (19th)? Thanks
Paul Sporer
11:08
Salazar, CMart, and Fulmer, but I'd try not to keep so many SPs
Dave
11:09
I'm happy Albies was ranked in the top 20, I think he could be the next Altuve. Thoughts??
Paul Sporer
11:09
That's a lofty tag to put on anyone. I know Eno really likes him, though
Steve
11:09
What do you think of Rick Porcello? Do his peripherals suggest he's over performing or is this breakout legit?
Paul Sporer
11:11
Not sure it's a really breakout. He looks the same as last year with a slightly improved HR rate. I've always like Porcello more than most, but I think he's just a mid-rotation guy at this point
Mikey
11:11
Does Berrios get recalled soon?
Paul Sporer
11:11
Probably should, yeah. Maybe post deadline if they flip a couple guys. Has a 2.98 ERA and 65 Ks in 66 IP since demotion
Bork
11:11
There better be ludes in here or else I'm reporting you
Paul Sporer
11:12
This is a front page chat, man. Cameron and Sullivan get all the ludes
I'm just lucky to be here
Coach McGuirk

Chris Archer at home against Baltimore and at Colorado this week, or Steven Wright in Yankee stadium and with the Twins at home? You can also answer that both are too risky and I should start Ryan Dull for the week.
Paul Sporer
11:13
I'd give Wright a go. I think Archer is too scary.

Hey Paul - How would you rank these SP's for ROS for 5x5 - Ventura, J. Ross, J. Garcia, Kennedy and Fiers? Thanks
Paul Sporer
11:14
think I got Garcia, Ventura, Ross (don't forget, he's nicked right now), Fiers, and Kennedy. You may prefer Fiers' high floor to Ross' higher ceiling

Watched your MLB The Show live stream the other night and loved it. Really regretting recently purchasing an Xbox One over the PS4. Why is the world so cruel and doesn't allow us Xbox gamers to play MLB games???
Paul Sporer
11:15
Thanks so much, Steve! The Show was 100000% the reason I moved to PS4 with next-gen. I was stuck w/the weak XB360 baseball offerings all these years. So glad I switched over
Unfortunately, there won't be any Show on XB1 bc Sony owns the game

How quickly do you think JD Mart gets back to normal when he returns? I'm out of contention in a 12 tm OPS keeper and trying to decide whether to unload him or hold and keep him in the 4th RD.
Paul Sporer
11:17
I think it will take a little. It is an elbow which seems like it would impact his power some. if you're out of it, I'd see about moving him, but if the bites are weak, just hold
bakkemon

speaking of steals: out of revere, merrifield and jankowski, who swipes more bags second half?
Paul Sporer
11:17
Jankowski seems to have an angle on that PT over Revere so I'll lean him, but then Revere and Merrifield

Trade deadline in out 12 team H2H league is fastly approaching. We get to keep 2 keepers with no type of penalties. I have kept Donaldson the past few year, but I have Betts on my team and I'm thinking about keeping him. Would you explore a trade for Donaldson and try to get something out of him (ie draft pick(s))?
Paul Sporer
11:18
2 free keeps, why not Betts & JD?
