If you need to prioritize power, keep Grichuk
If you need steady production Gurriel is nice. I like Marco more than Rodon for this year.
And I kinda trust Voit to land a bigger share of PT than Bird
5:09
That's a tricky group to parse quickly. Good luck.

NFBC ADP seems really high on pitchers - Is this because of the 15-team format? Are pitchers (Scherzer, Sale, deGrom) still viable first rounders in 12-team leagues?
Brad Johnson
5:09
Yes, and some groupthink
It was widely accepted that aces are a MUST this year
Kevin

Strasburg or Corbin this season?
Brad Johnson
5:09
Push
Same asset class
Yankz

Believe in a D Peralta repeat?
Brad Johnson
5:10
Not exactly, but I think he'll be solid

NL Only MI options looking like Wong or Neil Walker... have a preference? Wong feels better, but I'm thinking in the heart of the Marlins order Walker might actually be more valuable than Wong batting #8.
Brad Johnson
5:10
I'd try Walker personally
Similar thinking

If your NL only pitching staff in an auction roto league is already nola, buehler and pivetta, do you still bid big (estimating ~$50) for deGrom as the best starter available, or spread it around to a couple middle tier and/or high upside guys that are available (i.e. robbie ray, luis castillo, your boy paddack).
Brad Johnson
5:10
I'd try for deGrom personally
Planning to get multiples always goes sour for me
Don Dadda

Better upside power add: O'Hearn, Healy, Franmil, C Stewart?
Brad Johnson
5:11
Franmil, but he has PT concerns
Stewart next best

4 year deal for Hendricks.  With such a low ceiling, but high floor, how do you view him when building a team?
Brad Johnson
5:11
IP volume, nothing more
5:12
and I don't expect him to maintain it for 4 years
CW

Which side do you have in a 10 tm keep forever, OBP/QS league: Archer/A. Mondesi/J. Abreu for J.Verlander/N. Cruz   I'm in win now mode
Brad Johnson
5:12
Verlander
It's basically Archer/Mondesi for Verlander
5:13
In a super shallow league so there's no need to fret about Mondesi's future value
Brian

Are you taking Corbin Burns or McCugh in a 12 team dynasty?
Brad Johnson
5:13
The dynasty wrinkle makes this worth thinking about. For 2019, the play is McHugh
Brad Johnson
5:13
Are letting go of Jimmy Nelson and Heaney shares given their injury reports?
Brad Johnson
5:13
I never was back on Nelson
5:14
He was good so briefly, and there's no indication he's recovered that talent level
I do like Heaney, but I'm shying away for now
Not sure I'd cut him just yet unless guys like Wright/Wilson are available.
Or better

How would you rank Musgrove, McHugh, Lucchesi and Skaggs? Any of them a must own in a 10 team H2H?
Brad Johnson
5:15
In that order. Maybe Musgrove
Rick
5:15
Any chance Edwards ends up closing for the Cubs at some point?
Brad Johnson
5:15
Yes, there's a chance
