Hey folks, let's get started once I spam twitter a little
Bobopedia

for the next 4 years, Brian Dozier or Yoan Moncada? Competitive window is ajar this year, but the following three years will have a more open window
Brad Johnson
2:47
Ooh, I'm a sucker for present value, but Dozier isn't likely to be productive 3 or 4 years from now
2:48
Moncada could look something like Dozier as soon as 2018. I'd bet on Moncada to be better by 2020.
Given that you don't seem too keen about 2018, I'd lean Moncada

Should I be worried about max schrock?
Brad Johnson
2:48
Worry about yourself
You're basically Jon Jay with 2B eligibility
2:49
The scouting reports on Schrock aren't very enthusiastic so I wouldn't go out of my way to acquire him
2:50
Might just be one of those guys who does well in the minors but is overmatched in the majors. No carrying tools if he's not making elite contact.

Would you trade 5 years of Gary Sanchez for 6 years of Chance Sisco and Brent Honeywell? Or Gary for 4 years of Nola?
Or neither?
Brad Johnson
2:50
Super neither
Those offers are terrible
Unless it's like a 0.25 catcher league

In my Ottoneu leauge, there's a few teams that have around $200 they need to shed going into the draft. What's the best way to bring up a trade in this situation? I don't want to give up good, young talent for guys that I can just get in the draft when they are cut, but any bid that I think compensates the other teams fairly are viewed as lowball offers and immediately rejected.
Brad Johnson
2:51
You probably need to wait until there's a little pressure on them to make a swap. Most likely, they'll try to cut down to budget with one big move - i.e. getting $7 Andrus for $69 Kershaw
(that's what I did)
Dave
2:52
Whathca think about trading a $34 Rizzo and $6 Pham for $16 Lindor?
Brad Johnson
2:52
Overpay, but not atrocious.

Hey Brad, your thoughts on David Dahl in 2018? Oh and Ottoneu 12 team 5x5 - $55 Betts for $29 Braun and $12 Dahl. Take the two for one or pass since Dahl is a question mark
Brad Johnson
2:53
I get asked about Dahl every week. I don't have any insights besides that he should be nearly free in most formats (including ottoneu). He's like a $3 player there until he proves otherwise.
Betts for days in this situation.
Dylan
2:53
Looking to join an Ottoneu league for the first time. Can you give me any tips on what the process is? Should I join a league now or wait until February?
Brad Johnson
2:54
I'd recommend a fresh league if you can find one. Just be ready for a very long draft. Could always do a fresh league and an existing one though.

Do you know of any English sites that does fantasy for NPB?
Brad Johnson
2:54
Nope
Cool idea though

I noticed that the park factors on the Guts! page haven't been updated since the 2015 season. Are there any plans to bring them up to date?
Brad Johnson
2:55
That's funny, I complained about that internally earlier today
Probably
Slapshot
2:55
I have a bit of an ottoneu keeper issue with the Carlos Santana ($15) signing in Philadelphia, as I have both Altherr ($7) and Nick Williams ($4) on my roster.  How do you see that roster logjam playing out, and should I look to trade or cut any of those guys at those prices as a result?
Brad Johnson
2:55
Can probably just wait for it to solve itself via injury or trade
2:56
Seems likely that one of Altherr or Williams will be traded for a pitcher
And if not, somebody will land on the DL
I may return to the backlog later, let's fast forward to the present

“The scouting reports on Schrock aren't very enthusiastic“ Carson is going to get you fired for that comment.
Brad Johnson
2:57
Carson specifically writes about players whose scouting reports aren't very enthusiastic
Nelson
2:57
Whats better: 25$ Yu, 34$ Kluber (otto prices)
Brad Johnson

Gimme Kluber
