I'm really unimpressed with Adames overall. I'll take dynasty shares on the pedigree to see what happens, but I think the likeliest outcome winds up feeling like a more powerful Arcia.
Mr Anderson
4:55
Muncy, Tyler White, Voit, O'Hearn.... please rank for this year and dynasty
Brad Johnson
4:55
Well, it's Muncy and pick your poison
4:56
I like all 3 of those guys, but they're the same asset class
Positive peripherals, small samples
Still another Mondesi Question
4:56
What about Mondesi vs. Jorge Polanco? (AL only, OBP) Thanks!
Brad Johnson
4:56
EZ Mondesi
I really like Polanco, but he's just a high floor guy
4:57
Mondesi's OBP is lethal, but any guy who can cruise to 60 HR+SB doesn't need to be a 5-cat guy

Vizcaino or Minter as most likely to finish the season with more saves?
Brad Johnson
4:57
I'll say 60/40 Minter
Viz rarely finishes seasons
Houdini
4:57
Muncy had good numbers vs. lefties last year. Think Dodgers grant him 1B every day?
Brad Johnson
4:58
They would if I were running the show. But they'll continue to play matchups and get guys frequent rest
I'd pencil in 575 PA with most of the off days vs LHP
Farm
4:58
Dynasty points league: Albies for Glasnow and jake bauers?
Brad Johnson
4:58
I sense some triangulating
4:59
So far, I've preferred Freeman to Albies and Freeman to Glasnow/Bauers
I also would go Albies over the pair
I'll estimate that's about half the price of Albies
Maybe more like 30%
Somewhere in that range
Who's next?

Is Ryon Healy worth taking a flier on in a 16 team league this season?
Brad Johnson
5:00
Yea sure, see if he flies
He's unimpeded - or he will be if he's not traded.
And that's deep enough to stash guys who were briefly good years ago
5:01
Might as well double down with Vogelbach too
Charlie
5:01
Is Austin Dean worth rostering this year in deep or NL-only leagues?
Brad Johnson
5:01
It's got to be very deep
5:02
There's a chance he turns into a kind of Jon Jay-like player. I'd bet the under on that though.

In your stars and scrubs Ottoneu approach, is it almost a given you'll wind up spending only $1-2 on the RPs?
Brad Johnson
5:02
It frequently goes that way
5:03
I end up with some $10 RP too
$18-quality guys like Roberto Osuna who hit the waiver wire because their team needed cap room in-season.
Got some Osuna, Betances, and Britton shares in that fashion
Yankz
5:04
Do you see Kyle Seager as a good bounce back candidate or is he cooked?
Brad Johnson
5:04
I think he'll bounce to around a 100 wRC+
He's been left behind by an improving 3B landscape
Matt

You buying shares of Sonny Gray?
