So yea, that can be fun against weak competition
If it's a harder league and you've just happened to succeed, then keep the good club
3:40
Gonna skip from 3:20 to 3:40, sorry folks

When does Ronald Acuna debut in '18?
Brad Johnson
3:40
April 12-ish

I look at Healys numbers last year and I feel like he was underhyped, but I remember watching him last year wanting to puke. Is he worth a spot in a 10 tm AL only at $5?
Brad Johnson
3:40
Yes and yes and yes
3:41
Healy is one of them
Some guys get there without looking like they should
had a technical error there, those last two comments got reversed

hi brad, looking for some last minute cut advice in sabr points. I have peacock and gennett for $6 and $3, respectively. is peacock's role too unclear and gennett's expected regression too heavy to keep? thanks!
Brad Johnson
3:42
For SABR points, I'm not concerned about the role uncertainty for Peacock.
He was always going to be a 100 to 130 innings guy anyway, with health
if you drop him, it's because he's never healthy for long
3:43
I think Scooter's a pretty safe utility guy for $3. I'm not expecting a ton of regression aside from the lack of 4 HR games

If you played in 12 team, 14 category, h2h league would you consider punting a category or 2?
Brad Johnson
3:43
Even then, I'd still hate to punt. I would definitely figure out which categories are easiest to ignore.
3:44
For example, if OPS is one of the stats, I can focus on HR and probably get both

I can keep Jimmy Nelson for very cheap, but have to commit to rostering him 2 years. Worth it?
Brad Johnson
3:45
If he's very cheap both years? Sure. Is that in place of being able to roster somebody else?
I'm convinced he'll return to the level he flashed this year
At Miller Park, there's a very thin line between good and fantasy dud
Go birds

12 team OBP $260 budget.  Who to keep.  Conforto ($3) or Moncada ($7)?
Brad Johnson
3:46
Well, this would be easy if Conforto was healthy. I might just bet on Moncada since so much is unknown about Conforto's recovery outlook

Does Jorge Bonifacio get 500 MLB ABs this year?
Brad Johnson
3:46
God I hope not
but maybe
I'll look more closely
3:47
Barring several signings, Bonifacio appears to be an everyday outfielder
what a terrible roster
I mean, I knew, but I didn't KNOW
3:48
It's Salvy, Whit, and a bunch of awful
why are they thinking about signing Hosmer?
Zach
3:48
McCullers vs Ohtani who ya got? I see them as being similar in terms of expected output but looking at ADP there's a huge gap
Brad Johnson
3:48
Yea, probably safe to expect comparable output
3:49
Better pitching stats from McCullers if he can stay healthy, with the usual caveats about short outings. Kinda figure Ohtani may be a short outing guy too.
Brad

Best keeper option in 8 Keeper H2H Points - $6 Chris Taylor, $34 Robbie Cano, $24 Darvish?
Brad Johnson
3:50
Taylor or Darvish, depending on what you make of Taylor's breakout
It's very hard to draw any conclusions from that season
