I just read the Abreu/White question that I wrote (but you didn't publish) in a different form, written by someone else. Is that more a case of great minds thinking alike, or fools rarely differing?
Brad Johnson
5:17
I don't know. You've fooled me though. Or I'm confused.

Is the stolen base dead? Who is our next 60-steal savior?
Brad Johnson
5:17
Mallex Smith is my pick
5:18
After kinda lagging to start the season, he's really picked it up after making some adjustments at the plate
Mallex is going to be one of the biggest ADP growers between whatever first drafts are published and middle of March
Short Question About Short Stops
5:18
Royce Lewis or Wander Franco?
Brad Johnson
5:18
Do I have to pick?
They're both so good
5:19
Lewis probably climbs faster which has value
Future Greg Bird
5:19
Mondesi will probably go 20 HR/50 SB next year, right?
Brad Johnson
5:19
"probably" isn't the word I'd use
It's certainly in the solution set
And he's going to be the reason Mallex climbs so much
5:20
Mondesi's going to be very expensive, and people are going to realize Mallex has a better all-around 5x5 profile for less

Eric Thames: do I draft him next season? even as a flyer?
Brad Johnson
5:20
Yes. As a flier

Choi over Muncy ROS, or is that getting too cute?  Muncy has a lot of left handed match-ups...I'm worried he's going to ride the pine too much to help.
Brad Johnson
5:20
Can you play matchups. I'd like it more if you can mix and match

How many more of seasons of .260, 30HR, 170 R+RBI seasons are left in this bat? I'm not getting any younger.
Brad Johnson
5:21
2.5?
Silvia

Brandon McKay, Triston McKenzie, MacKenzie Gore - which of these three would you rather have shares of in a former keeper league with one pitcher and one batter minor league slot
Brad Johnson
5:22
I think I like Brenden McKay most. I'm also intrigued by the two-way profile
Klonk
5:22
Is Bryce Harper a top 15 pick next season (redraft)? What if he signs with SFG?
Brad Johnson
5:22
He'll sign with the Phillies or Yankees and everybody will freak out about all the extra homers that will never happen because he doesn't hit "just enough" home runs

5:22
Matt Strahm a starter next year?
Brad Johnson
5:23
Kinda doubt it. They had every opportunity to make him one this year
Could be an Opener or Follower

I opened up your blog and was accosted by Fernando Rodney shooting an arrow. I feel like you need to disclaim something like that. That image burns my eyes.

Is devers a decent buy low in a deep dynasty? Or is he gonna go full Mazara and forever underperform the prospect hype?
Brad Johnson
5:25
I kinda doubt anybody will sell low. They'll be more willing to sell at cost which wasn't true in the past, but it won't be cheap
I'm not too worried about him
Though I don't really think he's underperformed my expectations either
5:26
So it could be a matter of the market at large overestimating his performance
Ok, I'm way over my normal allotment. Thanks for playing everyone

Drop D. Holland or Skaggs for tomorrow's streamer?
Brad Johnson
5:26
Skaggs I think

Is Trevor Story a first round pick next year?
Brad Johnson
5:26
No. There's just too many good players. The difference between 2017 and 2018 Story is too minute to take the chance.
