When Cespedes returns, an OFer could be pushed into a weird 1B platoon
Adrian Gonzalez could appear

Is Elvis Andrus a good bet to reach his normal 20+ SB level?
Brad Johnson
4:10
Pretty decent bet. Not guaranteed
Grant

Thoughts on Pineda and Harvey as a lotto ticket?
Brad Johnson
4:10
They're fine as far as lotto tickets go

Senzel out several weeks with ankle sprain
Brad Johnson
4:10
I did not hear this.
4:11
And yes, late breaking news of today: Senzel is out

How far would Keuchel and Kimbrel need to fall for you to draft them?  I avoided both in all my drafts, but someone already dropped Keuchel so I figured I might as well drop my last guy to pick him up.
Brad Johnson
4:11
Like 50-75 spots from their ADP
4:12
Which is highly buffed by early drafters assuming they'd eventually sign.
Austin
4:12
Which Padre pitcher you like more, Paddock or Strahm?
Brad Johnson
4:12
Paddack. Like 'em both though.

Ketel Marte droppable in 15-team if he's not leading off, or still some skills there? (Stupid loveable Adam Jones...)
Brad Johnson
4:12
Can't cut Marte in 15-team
He's a good player

Cervelli or Jansen at Catcher? Cervelli hitting 5th and having the longer track record is making me think about it anyway.
Brad Johnson
4:13
They're both around the 5th best catcher

Do you like Chirinos or Barnhart more in an OBP league? Also, are you buying a Shark rebound this year? Thanks, Brad!
Brad Johnson
4:13
Small preference for Barnhart. Not buying Shark shares. No supporting cast.
4:14
Similar to my complaint about Marlins SP except the Giants bullpen won't fumble as many wins.
But even if Shark pitches well, he's like a 7 game winner which is unrosterable

Are you, like Sheryl, a Matt Harvey truther?
Brad Johnson
4:14
No, I'm pretty hands off with Harvey
4:15
I don't have any shares, although I have nothing against a no-cost dice roll on him
You ma fren

On the precipice of another fantasy baseball season, what are some of your key actions that lead to a successful season - along the lines of, dont be an a-hole in trade talks, watch closer battles early, etc.
Brad Johnson
4:15
Biggest thing you can do is manage your team daily, especially after lineups are posted.
That's a good 20% of the game.

Do we know where Danny Jansen will hit in the lineup?  Do you like him over Gomes, Cervelli?
Brad Johnson
4:16
We know very little about where anybody will bat after April 10 or so.
I do like him over Gomes. I think Cervelli is better, but he also has a history of concussions

So, "jerking around" is a knee-jerk assumption based on nothing the team has said or done so far this year, as compared to legit and overt shenanigans from Blue Jays, White Sox, etc.? Hard to respect someone who spouts crap like this when the Mets have seemed to do everything right re: Alonso this spring.
Brad Johnson
4:17
Where are all these Mets apologists coming from?
We have a long and storied history of the Mets comically mismanaging anything that can be mismanaged
4:18
Mesoraco was just yesterday...
Don Von Handburger

The Chris Paddack hype-o-meter is buzzing and shaking! I'm considering drafting him ahead of the likes of Hamels, Bumgarner, and Ryu.  Am I crazy?
