It probably should be Soto if they're insistent on removing Turner.

On the Zac Gallen hype train?
Brad Johnson
4:52
I (with Alex Chamberlain) started the Gallen hype train
4:53
Gallen was a Peripheral Prospects Poster Child. He is our Corey Kluber.
bob villar
4:53
is 3 IL spots too many for a dynasty?
Brad Johnson
4:53
No. The way I play, we usually have huge rosters and no IL.
Amos Moses

Bud Norris to the Phils, woooweeeee!!!
Brad Johnson
4:53
And Drew Storen.
4:54
They're going to crush 2014
Bad Back
4:54
Straight up give Machado for Kershaw in a dynasty roto QS keeper?  Petco vs aging back dilemma.
Brad Johnson
4:54
Can't do that.
Machado is still way too good and young
I think that's defensible in redraft or a format where both can't be kept.
Cory
4:55
Sam Hilliard? Can he cut down on his strikeout rate?
Brad Johnson
4:55
He's a Rockie. They hate anything that might be both good and cheap.
Seriously though, I want to love Hilliard and I can't get past their dumpster fire roster management.
4:56
He doesn't need to cut down on the Ks to be valuable

Did you fill out a fake FG Hall of fame ballot?  Who was on it?
Brad Johnson
4:56
I did not but I would almost always vote for 10 people. Lemme remind myself who was up this year.
4:57
I tend to check out on MVP talk because it can only frustrate.
4:58
Clemens, Bonds, Walker, Rolen, Helton, Jeter, Jones, Sheffield, Manny, and Abreu.
4:59
I just have nothing but spite for Schilling. He probably should get a vote though given the others on my ballot.
Pettitte is the other obvious snub. Maybe take him over Ramirez.
Amos Moses
4:59
Why dont the dbacks give josh rojas a crack at the 2b gig?  He raked LY
Brad Johnson
4:59
He's going to play
Draft him
5:00
I mean, don't pay through the nose, but do grab those late shares.
He's penciled into a super utility role or minors role to start, but as soon as an injury strikes he's full time
5:01
The Diamondbacks are being clever. Sometimes it's best to take a very small cut to your starting lineup in favor of better depth.
Neal
5:01
Garrett Hampson for one of Cease or Sean Murphy? Deep 30 team dynasty, std roto categories
Brad Johnson
5:01
Hampson is very hyped. I'd aim higher.
5:02
And I do really like Murphy.
Pat's Bat
5:02
Keep Stephen Matz for $2 in a league where the top 100 plus starting pitchers are relevant or throw him back to try and save a buck?
Brad Johnson
5:02
Meh, just keep him if the plan is to reacquire him anyway
NotBurtReynolds
5:02
God, I love that someone asked one half of The Gallen Hype Train, if they were on the Gallen hype train.
Brad Johnson
5:02
Alex hypes harder. I get lost in the background.
5:03
You just did a pod with me, you know I'm not loud!
Anders
5:03
Dynasty league, guy keeps asking for Musgrove, he’d give me Kieboom. Problem is my UTIL spot is being used up so i have no space for him. Any advice on how to tackle?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Sometimes valuations match but the fit isn't right.
5:04
I have to wrap up soon to give someone a ride.
