People seem to like Pivetta. I'm not quite on board yet
Brandon McCarthy is legit good when he's healthy

O/U 15 HR, 20 SB and .340 OBP for Acuna this year?
Brad Johnson
4:38
Over Under Over

re: pitching heavy in H2H. would you consider taking Scherzer ahead of Goldschmidt in the first round of a keeper? have both Hoskins and Kluber already so either one is a cherry on top pick to either give the rotation or offense a leg up
Brad Johnson
4:38
I'd definitely consider it
4:39
Not positive I'd do it, but don't dismiss it out of hand. It's a riskier strategy

In a 6x6 (OBP and Avg), where would Suzuki/Flowers rank among catchers if they were one person?
Brad Johnson
4:39
fringe top 10
I believe in the Suzuki breakout. Not as thrilled about Flowers
Oil Can Boyd

Dropped Lucas Duda for Kevin Kiermaier immediately after the draft in an OBP league, smart move?
Brad Johnson
4:40
Looks fine to me
Paul Goldschmidt
4:40
How much are you discounting me with the humidor? Project for over/Under 26 HRs?
Brad Johnson
4:40
I'll take the over
I'm not really discounting Goldy. I figure he's elite enough to overcome the humidor
Guys I'm discounting are Pollock, Lamb, Ketel, and Owings

I'm sure you hate these questions, but can't hurt to ask. 14-team mixed, 10 keepers,  $260 budget, the usual (2 c's, MI, CI, U, 5 OF). Pick three: Eric Thames- $2
Schoop $10
Inciarte $9
Mazara $14
Pollock $13
C.Santana $17
Corbin $1
J. Montgomery $1

Thanks!

I do hate these questions!
My biggest issue is that I'm not in these leagues
4:42
I don't have anything internalized about them so I can only speak very generally
I think the value for Santana is poor
If you need steals, that helps the case for Pollock. I'd pay the $4 to take him over Inciarte - unless you need the steals X2
4:43
Thames is platoony Bellinger
Big fan of JorMont
but you might be able to get him back for like $5
his price varies wildly
Mazara could work if you're willing to bet on growth
He's probably going to go wild one of these years
like Marcell Ozuna
4:44
Schoop is probably a must-keep at that price
so... Schoop, Pollock, Mazara? Unless that's too much budget, then squeeze in Thames or jorMont

Any breakout $1 catchers on your radar?
Brad Johnson
4:44
Not really
4:45
Andrew Knapp I guess
I'm taking Chirinos and Suzuki for $1 though
those aren't breakouts, just nice values on veterans
Wacha wacha
4:45
Any chance I'm the best stl pitcher this year?
Brad Johnson
4:45
Pretty small.
observation
4:45
you don't seem grouchy today.
Brad Johnson
4:46
I dunno. I'm pretty much only grumpy when somebody hands me a list of chores.
