Good Ryon Healy seems to be a rough approximation of the upside imo
5:00
I can't imagine the Yankees will put up with a second full season of him
And Luke Voit is a better hitter for 1B
Which is weird but true
Time to wrap it up, I have some errands to run
5:01
You should join my Patreon contest. Entries are due by end of tonight for a chance at $10. (see beginning of the chat).
5:02
True, you have to be a patron, but that's only $1/mo for a chance at $10 (and I currently have fewer than 5 entries)
ok, a few more

Given the state of the catcher position, is Gary Sanchez worth keeping (10 keepers) over someone like Josh Hader (Holds is a category)?
Brad Johnson
5:02
Ehhh
5:03
In a deep format, probably. If it's 12 team, 1 C or shallower, nah

Thoughts on Conforto? He showed flashes of being useful again last year. That power coming back as he gets further from surgery to reattach his arm?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Jump on that wagon

On the topic of JPC: Mondesi came up really young, and is finally doing exciting things. Urias is in a little bit of the same boat. Do you see any other post-post-hype sleepers? Guys that feel like they've been around forever but are still under 25? Dahl, Tapia, Margot, Barreto?
Billy Bathhouse

The Mondesi hype already seems to be way out of control. What can we realistically expect from this guy next year?
Brad Johnson
5:04
I talked through some Mondesi outcomes earlier this offseason.
I like Margot as a post-post-hype guy
This is another subject area I don't really have prepared on October 30.
We'll get there!

3 RH hitters in 9th and Boston brings in Sale rather than one of the top 3 closers in baseball.  Worked out, but what am I missing?
Brad Johnson
5:05
I think Kimbrel was probably more gassed than Sale

Since it's maybe just me and my C questions... the Grandal/Barnes platoon turned up great two years ago for a one C league - are there any combos that you see worth rostering both?
Mikolas was great this year - any former MLB guys that might come back this winter?
Brad Johnson
5:05
There will be - just wait for some guys to sign
I don't know of any big returnees like Mikolas or Thames
5:06
I got every question, huzzah.
See ya next week.
