Because DeJong seems unlikely to maintain given his plate skills and Story could have his DeJong moment any time now

Alex

2:45

Where do you value AJ Pollock? Is he still a Top 50 guy like he was drafted?

Paul Sporer

2:49

Top 50 feels a little high

But the speed keeps him top 30 OF

(I assume you meant Top 50 overall w/your Q)

seth

In my 15 team league, 33 man rosters, we can trade future draft dollars (up to $12). Is it worth burning a dollar on Luis Castillo? I feel like I have a deep staff, but injuries always around the corner (Kershaw, Ray, Price, Godley, Verlander, Happ, Berrios, Shark)

Paul Sporer

2:50

I'd definitely throw a buck at him. The talent and raw stuff is hot

another bad dynasty manager

2:51

Hi Paul: thx for the rankings update! Can you give me any info on whether or not Karns will have that TOS surgery? I have him in both a 16 team pts. league and an AL-only league.

Paul Sporer

2:51

I haven't seen anything new recently

Anthony

2:52

10 teamer...Jordan Montgomery, or Aaron Sanchez. I know you JUST posted your updated rankings, but are you at all concerned about Sanchez? Seems like something reliable vs. question marks and higher upside.

Paul Sporer

2:54

Ya they're only a few ranks apart so you can really take your pick. I do have some concern for Sanchez, but I don't want to react too sharply to the dud v. HOU off the DL

TK

2:54

what type of SP or RP should I expect back for puig?

Paul Sporer

2:55

These questions are impossible. It really depends on your market.

I'd keep expectations low, though

Michael Pineda

2:56

Tommy John for me. No more HRs for 12+ months...

Paul Sporer

2:56

Ya that's a bummer. As frustrating as he can be on the mound, still prefer him to be out there pitching

Perl

2:56

Khris Davis $7 for Carlos Martinez $11 ottoneu 5x5 who wins?

Paul Sporer

2:56

Think I prefer CMart

JimyJam

2:56

Hey Paul, thanks for the updated rankings! In a 12t H2H dynasty, I now have 4/5 Cubs SPs due to the Q trade (all but Arrieta). Is this good, bad or neither and should I do anything about it? Currently sitting in 1st on the strength of my offense.

Paul Sporer

2:57

I usually don't get too worried about things like that. It's not like something in football where if you have QB, RB, WR and they get shutout you're toast.

Thanks for the chat!

2:57

Brad Peacock - who are you not starting him against? At least in the AL?

Paul Sporer

2:57

Maybe Boston? I'm running him out there regularly

Rickon

2:57

How important is positional eligibility for your borderline bench guys? For example, Peraza is on my team to steal bases. He starts maybe 2-3 games per week. Is that 2B/SS/OF worth keeping him on the roster over someone like Mallex.

Paul Sporer

2:58

I value it for sure and in that particular case where both are super speedsters, I'd favor Peraza

Sterling Mallory Chris Archer

2:58

DeGrom for Dee Gordon fair in a vacuum?

Paul Sporer

2:58

Yeah, I'd say so

The vacuum where the Gordon getter needs SBs of course

Sandy Ravage

2:58

Thoughts on Aaron Nola in a dynasty? Is he a top 20 SP (or better) in H2H at some point?

Paul Sporer

2:59

He's around there. I really like healthy Nola

Jason

2:59

How valuable is Fulmer if he regresses like SIERA suggests or Steamer projections?

Paul Sporer

3:01

I mean, he'd be around others who have a 4-something ERA, but I just don't see him falling to that level. I realize his Ks aren't there, but he favors efficiency and I just don't see him as a 4-ERA guy

seth

3:02

Betances cuttable in 15 team 5x5? Those BB worry me!

Paul Sporer

3:03

ya the awful WHIP and solid-but-unspectacular ERA cancel the value of his Ks

Chuck

3:03

I have to cut one: Michael Brantley or Carlos Santana?

Paul Sporer

3:03

Santana

Luck Dragons

3:03

Is Alex Wood injury prone? What is the evidence

Paul Sporer

3:03

He's had shoulder and elbow issues in the past, but "injury prone" is a weird tag

Andy

3:03

Everyone has Wainwright around 100- he's been getting babip-ed to death and now his k/bb is getting better too- are we sure he sucks?

Paul Sporer

3:04

He got BABIP'd a bunch last year, too. At some point, it's on him as well and not just bad luck

Chuck

3:04

Villar or Stalin Castro ROS?
