Gyorko worth a shot over Castro at MI in a 12tm points league?

Paul Sporer

2:40

Yeah, Starlin's been whatever. See if Gyorko's for real. if not, you can probably get Castro back

John Stamos

2:40

Hey Paul, thanks for doing a chat on my birthday!

Paul Sporer

2:40

No problem!!!

Batman

Time to bail on Bregman? (0-9) J/K ...... however if going for it in a keeper league, how much of a haul would you need to sell Bregman ($5) (14 team, 10 keep, 5x5, $5 annual increase, $300 budget) or is he as close to as an untouchable prospect there is?

Paul Sporer

2:41

Nothing is untouchable when you're going for it. I honestly would've sold before he came up bc the hype was insane. Can still pull a haul, though

Matt F

2:44

do you think hedges gets called up during this deadline season? do you think he's an impact catcher ROS if so?

Paul Sporer

2:45

Can see him up, don't see him being impactful

2:46

I don't really buy his AAA explosion and SD probably doesn't either or he might be up

Zorak

What do you tend to do when your team is a tweener? I'm right now in 5th out of 6 who make the playoffs, but I'm a lot closer to 7th than I am to 3rd, and I've lost my only truly elite player (Kershaw). Do I try to hang on to my playoff spot and hope I catch fire in september, or load up on keepers and hope for dominance next season?

Paul Sporer

2:46

It seems you've done an honest assessment and don't think a legit run is in the cards. Nothing cool about finishing 7th so if you think that's the fate, get those keepers!

Bill

2:47

With Zimmer being promoted to AAA do you see him coming up this year. Have you heard anything about a change in approach with the .324 BA in July, K% down (somewhat) or just talent catching up to level, or SSS. How do you compare him to other top upper minors OF prospects, like Meadows, Frazier, Margot, Dahl

Paul Sporer

2:47

I really like him, but they're taking their time so earliest I can see if late August (of course he will be called up next wk now that I said that). I rank Dahl ahead long term, but then probably ZImm

Tyler Anderson

2:48

Can I become an effective groundball ace-like pitcher? Like Jaime Garcia?

Paul Sporer

2:48

What the hell do you think you've been doing this year?

Young Jeezy

2:48

Everyday starting 2nd in a 12 team H2H points league re-draft. Pedoria or Baez?

Paul Sporer

2:48

Pedroia

Scooby

2:48

Is Straily for real? Does he keep this up? He's a FA in my Yahoo 12-teamer. Like him better than Nola, Shoemaker, Archer or Pomeranz ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:50

Ya, I actually do buy in a good bit, but I'm not sure he's better than what you have

Young Jeezy

2:50

JA Happ, Pineda, or Shoemaker ROS? 12 team H2H points league?

Paul Sporer

2:50

Shoe

Flash

2:50

How do you think Dee Gordon will do ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:50

He'll pretty be himself, IMO

Kylo R

2:50

Rodon available on my WW, worth an add?

Paul Sporer

2:51

Really depends on league type and size, of course

grapes

2:51

Would you take Nola or Fulmer in a short term keeper league? I'm leaning toward Nola, but his recent performance is leaving me a little gun shy.

Paul Sporer

2:51

Short term it's hard to go away from Fulmer. Nola has just not been on track for a good 2 months.

Young Jeezy

2:53

In a 12 team H2H points league. With 2 keepers (no penalties for who you keep). I was just offered Franco, Sale & a 2nd round pick for Donaldson, Kluber & 10th. If I were to do the trade, I would most likely keep Betts & Kershaw (praying for a healthy recovery). This is a tough decision.....

Paul Sporer

2:53

No, I'd pass, Keep JD and Betts

Maxamuz

Zorak

Thought about Ke$ha as a joke vote but I can't bring myself to not vote Too $hort

Phantom of the Chakra

2:53

Forgot A$AP and Ma$e! Good call.

Blargsworth

2:54

I just traded Alex Bregman, Matt Harvey, and Justin Upton for Miguel Cabrera in a dynasty league, where I have one of the top teams, but lacked a 1st baseman. I was already set at SS, 3B, and LF. Did I do good, or sell too low?

Paul Sporer

2:54

i think you did pretty well!

Cubbies

2:55

For fantasy purposes in an AL only league who produces more, Melvin Upton, Bregman or Gallo....ROS and 2017?

Paul Sporer

2:55

Bregman

Blargsworth

2:56

Who do you like best in terms of hold opps, potential future closer likelihood, and pure stuff: Jake Barrett, Adam Ottavino, Hansel Robles, Pedro Baez, Cory Knebel?
