Helllllooooo!! Let's talk baseball!!

JimyJam

2:01

Why can't Belt hit LHP this year? Is it small sample noise or should we be concerned?

Paul Sporer

2:01

Could be sample size, but the real issue is that he didn't necessarily own the positive work he showed vL the two years before so I'd lean more toward the negative

Jay

2:02

Have a glut of CI's and need OF help and an upside SP. I traded Bour and Brad Miller for Sonny Gray and Andrew Benintendi. Thoughts?

Paul Sporer

2:02

I like it!

Chris

2:02

Thoughts on Dan Straily? Specifically for a 12 team mixer, 7 categories (QS and K/BB)

Paul Sporer

2:02

Meh. Walks too many to be a real K/BB asset and has only gone 6+ in three of his outings

Hobbs

2:03

How much value does Aroldis gain/lose in dynasty? In a 12tm Roto dynasty would you trade Aroldis and Betances for Alex Wood, Ronald Acuna, and Cody Allen? I'm in first right now. Would like some SP help though. Closer are Giles, Kintzler, Knebel and Bush plus the two Yanks. This obviously depends on Wood's health. If news comes out he's okay, would you do the deal? Thanks.

Paul Sporer

2:04

Ya this works and you even get a future piece in Acuna. Trading RPs in dynasty is always a good idea. They're just so sketchy (though Aroldis and Betances are admittedly two of the more stable ones)

Mark

2:04

Is Ian Desmond ever going to return to being good?

Paul Sporer

2:04

It's been 29 games lol

Mark

2:04

Is Leury Garcia's breakout for real?

Paul Sporer

2:05

Big cut in K% that I like, but 21% HR/FB is unlikely to hold. I can see the AVG and SB staying useful in deeper leagues

Mark

2:05

What are your thoughts on Paul DeJong and Chad Pinder?

Paul Sporer

2:07

Vlad Sedler of Rotowire has nicknamed Pinder "Swipe Right" as a Tinder reference and I love it. The power has been legit and I dig him. I don't know much about DeJong, sorry

Randy Travis

2:07

In desperate need of a Catcher in my AL-only league. Please rank the following options: Vogt, Zunino, Vasquez. Thanks!

Paul Sporer

2:08

Vogt, Vazquez, open spot, Zunino

2:10

any worries about marco estrada after his blowup vs the yankees? rather have him or fulmer rest of season?

Paul Sporer

2:12

No, he's done more than enough to not freak out over 1 start. Prefer Fulmer, but not bc of the bad outing

Evan

2:12

Hi Paul! Do you think Aaron Nola recovers from this injury marred slow start?

Paul Sporer

2:13

I'm kinda moving away from him bc of the health. It just continually clouds his performance and makes him tough to rely on at all

Chin Music

2:15

My league has been picking up and dropping Tanaka like crazy. I took a chance after his great start but then got stuck with another miserable one. Is he really worth holding on to?

Paul Sporer

2:15

On the bench

StarGord

2:16

In a dynasty where cost and control is even, would you swap Addison Russell for Robbie Ray? h2h points

Paul Sporer

2:16

No, prefer the hitter in long term situations and I just don't think Ray is that great

Joe

2:16

You a fan of Jesse Hahn ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:16

Ya. Obv needs health, but I dig the talent

Bill

2:16

Who do you take rest of season in standard points league: Jake Lamb or Justin Turner?

Paul Sporer

2:17

Turner barely

Patches

2:18

I wouldn't mind scooping up an SP in my AL-only league. Thinking of offering my Calhoun for Shoemaker. Good deal for me?

Paul Sporer

2:18

Yep,I like that. Calhoun will get going IMO, but that's a fair deal

George is Curious

2:18

Is Ben Gamel a starter for the Mariners if Haniger ever returns?

Paul Sporer

2:19

I can see him still being strong side platoon - Gamel, Dyson, Haniger

Guest

2:19

I have a $5 Villar in my 5x5 ottoneu league. Coming into this year he looked like the best asset in the entire league. Now.... not so much. What should I do with him?

Paul Sporer

2:19

Hold for now. You'll get ripped in a trade.

Chin Music

2:19

Would you offer up Xander to get back Machado? Machado just hasn't been hitting at all and Xander is pulling some real weight in other categories for me.

Paul Sporer

2:20

Ya, I would ,but not sure it gets the job done

baby bull

2:20

Whats a realistic range of arms I could get in return for my Marwin Gonzalez, Im having a hard time putting a value to him 10 team AL Only Scoresheet keep 7-10

Paul Sporer

2:20

Chris Sale or bust!!!!!
