hahaha, someone should tell him

getting late

3:10

in an obp keeper, would you consider giving McCullers to get bellinger and benintendi or bellinger and happ?

Paul Sporer

3:10

I definitely would to get Belly and Beni

Lost Freeman in a 16 teamer. Luckily have Alonso, Bour on the wire though. He's on a pace for a 30-100 season albeit with a 250-ish average. Worth using a #2 waiver claim on him?

Paul Sporer

3:11

Love Bour. Had him everywhere last yr and that injury snuffed out a strong season. I think he's worth getting just bc he shouldn't be available in a 16 teamer so if it becomes surplus, you can move someone

I Need HELP

3:12

Have Forsythe coming off the DL. 16 team, mixed, 5x5. Do Harrision or Wong have any trade value if packaged for an upgrade somewhere else?

Paul Sporer

3:12

Depends who needs 2B. Questions like these are entirely league dependent

HappyFunBall

3:12

Traded Thames for Pollock. Mine got hurt, his got sick. Delayed gratification abounds ...

Paul Sporer

3:12

Frustrating. Would've been nice to see both continue dominating for a win-win deal

cliff

3:12

any hope of Joc Pederson every living up to his speed/power hype? Or is he just Colby Rasmus 2.0?

Paul Sporer

3:13

Did you hear me make that Rasmus comp or arrive at on your own? Bc I'm starting to think it's Rasmus 2.0. Thought Joc would flash those minor league wheels, but it's just not happening

Josh

3:13

You rolling with Piscotty or V-Mart ros?

Paul Sporer

3:14

Piscotty. When it's close like this, just go with the VASTLY younger guy

Craig

3:14

Love the new rankings! Since Urias doesn't look like he will get deep in games. What level of closer do you think you can fetch?

Paul Sporer

3:14

Thanks! I think Urias could pull a pretty solid closer. Not top tier, but can start asking beyond that

Bobby Hit Higginson

3:14

Would you drop Joc Pederson for JBJ if he was on the waiver wire (Which he Is).

Paul Sporer

3:15

Prob just stick with Joc. Not too different, but Joc hits up in the order more often

wOBAMA

3:15

Ervin for Maeda + Harvey... which side wins?

Paul Sporer

3:15

Maeda/Harvey

JAL

3:16

Happy Friday. 12-team 5x5. Had a logjam at OF. Traded my Kemp and Dickerson for his Yu Darvish. Needed pitching. Have Haniger coming back. OK or no? Thanks!

Paul Sporer

3:16

I can dig that. Consolidated your OF for an ace.

Hold the Odor

3:16

Took your suggestion last week to buy low on Diaz. Offered E. Nunez. A few hours later Diaz was no longer the closer and I no longer had Nunez. Not sure how I feel. Steals are nice.

Paul Sporer

3:16

Aw man that sucks. Just hold Diaz, though. I think he gets the gig back

Kershaw's Blonde Mustache

3:16

Thanks for updating the pitcher list!

Paul Sporer

3:16

You're welcome!

Josh

3:16

Injuries SUCK!

Paul Sporer

3:16

They do indeed

3:17

Bellinger or Khris Davis - ROS?

Paul Sporer

3:17

Davis

Buff

3:17

Chances that Brad Hand takes closer role for Padres?

Paul Sporer

3:17

Possible bc they have other lefties to cover and he's been WAY better than Maurer

jack

3:17

I've been offered Berrios for Severino, and am tempted to jump at the offer given yesterday's amazing K-show, but am not sure if I have my Twins blinders on (Minneapolis guy, now living in Portland).

Paul Sporer

3:18

Not terribly different so if you prefer Berrios, then I'm OK with it

Kershaw's Blonde Mustache

3:18

Is Josh Donaldson going to come back and hit 30 dingers or come back and be ineffective? Does Toronto have a chance either way?

Paul Sporer

3:18

lol, like I know :) I'd expect him to be good bc he's an awesome player

Mike

3:18

Love the chats, podcast, posts. Thanks Paul. 10 team, HtH, OBP, Saves, Holds league. Yelich/Wade Davis for Conforto/Andrew Miller is so fair it's boring, right? Only kicker is that Conforto has keeper value the other three don't.

Paul Sporer

3:19

Thanks, Mike! Ya that's pretty dead even there. If I'm competing and trade away Conforto, I don't sweat the keeper aspect

Charlotte

3:19

just because my legs are short doesn't mean my walks have to be....

Paul Sporer

3:19

ok ok

Who do you like more Matt bush or ken Giles?
