Ahoy there. We'll get started in a few minutes.
AJ Preller

I need a 3B (real life, not fantasy) and I'd prefer it if he was good. Who can flip me a third baseman for a catcher, or a corner outfielder, or a ton of pitching prospects?
Ebelin
4:01
All things equal and from a fantasy perspective, who's the odd man out between Renfroe, Reyes and Cordero?
German

Is Wil Myers ever going to break out? I think I might've asked this for four straight years but here I am again.
Tokyo
4:01
What's the earliest round you'd take Tatis and just stash him till he gets called up?
Brad Johnson
4:01
I am wise to your ways Padres fan!
4:02
I don't really see third base as an urgent fix tbh.
4:03
And I would look to free agency before a trade if Villanueva/Myers/Spang are determined to be insufficient
4:04
Asdrubal, Freese, Lowrie, and Moustakas are the best fits imo
But again, I'd just stick with internal options
4:05
Reyes and Cordero will compete in Spring Training, but Reyes has to be favored with his second half performance
Let's not forget, Jankowski was also just as solid in a very different way
Myers has been very consistent so I'm going to say he is what he is
Let's revisit Tatis later.
Jackie

Take off your randomness hat and give us your WS prediction and why.  Thanks.
Brad Johnson

Red Sox have a better roster
Boring reason, but also the best reason
OppoTaco

All things being equal, would you keep Morton for $13 in standard 5x5?
Brad Johnson
4:06
Probably a little pricey for my taste. Depending on other factors though, he might be keepable anyway
Flip

You like sano as a big bounce back candidate this year? Seems like a good time to buy in dynasty leagues
Brad Johnson
4:07
I think the time to buy might be in April if he's still scuffling.
I suspect he's available at full price right now
4:08
But as soon as he's slumping again, the price is likely to drop quickly
Honestly, his skill set has become devalued in a league where Brandon Nimmo, Max Muncy, and Tyler White all appeared for (nearly) free last season
4:09
Why pay for Sano when you can just go no-hype
Will
4:09
Nomar Mazara at $11 for this upcoming year worth it?
Brad Johnson
4:09
12 team mixed? Probably fringe keepable.
For 5 OFers
Not 3 OFers
He's a $1 OFer in 3 OF
4:10
There's breakout potential there and the floor is useful

What about Margot in Padre Rubixcube? Is he at risk as non-starter?
Brad Johnson
4:10
Not really, who is going to play CF? Jankowski?
Reardon
4:10
Are there any GMs that can swing player evaluation for you? If some team went out of their way to get a player into a good playing time situation, would that bump up their stock for you? I guess I'm thinking like when OAK bought in on Rich Hill's mini-breakout?
Brad Johnson
4:11
Yes and no, the list is very long. Generally, I assume teams are acquiring players for a specific reason, and I look to find it
Like Mike Fiers last season
Some teams (i.e. the Mets) ruin everything they touch

what is your opinion of both Quinn of Phillies and Mullins of Orioles going into 2019? Mullins looks like he will be inserted as starter as O’s rebuild. Quinn seemingly is a 4 th OF but if he could reduce strikeouts his speed is top 5. Are either one a good bet to become starters?
Brad Johnson
4:12
Quinn is the Phillies starting CFer as of right now
Nobody realizes this
