followed by Bauer and Stroman probably
4:08
Can't you trade Berrios for a good closer instead of taking a waiver scrub?
Don Gately
4:08
Like clockwork and regardless of experience, people forget how long the fantasy baseball season is.

Joe Mauer has put up a sneaking .850 OPS over his last 600 PAs. Not a stud, but worth taking a look at.
Brad Johnson
4:09
I'll go one farther, Joe Mauer is a borderline stud in ottoneu FGpts. And he consistently costs nothing.
big trade
4:09
which side of this trade do you want to be on? Getting Acuna + Grienke  or Bryce Harper   (OBP dynasty league)
Brad Johnson
4:09
Harper me please
Not that I think the Acuna side is "losing"
especially if they need an arm now and have surplus OF studs

What kind of production are you expecting from Kyle Tucker this year?
Brad Johnson
4:10
Hard to expect him to break into the lineup. Needs a few injuries to clear a path.
Sean Manaea
4:10
For 2018, am I going to be a top 30 pitcher in QS leagues?
Brad Johnson
4:10
Possibly. A's are showing no qualms with using their SP
which is becoming a serious issue for QS leagues
Nels
4:11
David Peralta 10-team worthy?  His absence of speed or power has me batting an eyelash...
Brad Johnson
4:11
nope, he's an injury patch
yojiveself
4:11
if and when Kingery gains SS eligibility, hold him and move/drop Chris Taylor?  or hold both?  10 team H2H 5x5.  I like to keep a deep bench of SP's.  Thanks!
Brad Johnson
4:11
Hold both
Sean
4:11
Scott Kingery value if he gets SS, 3B, and OF elg? Pretty appealing. (FYI: he already is 2B elg. in Yahoo)
Brad Johnson
4:12
Certainly doesn't hurt. He's playing most days too. I've been saying poor man's Byron Buxton since he signed the contract. I'm starting to think he might outperform Buxton (mostly because Buxton isn't reliable)
3 Ben Sheets to the Wind
4:12
Neris and Paxton on the wire and I could use both. Should I waste my high WW claim for the average closer Neris or hold off and hope he clears to use it and grab Paxton?
Brad Johnson
4:12
Have to take Paxton. That's a potential top 10 pitcher when he's right.
I doubt Neris is closing by end of season
4:13
Nothing against him, he's just the fifth or seven best reliever in that system.
Tom

Hi Brad- thanks for the chat. I'm in a league with a DH- who would you rather have ROS- Evan Gattis or Nomar Mazara? Both expected to be my primary DH (Posey at C).
Brad Johnson
4:13
Mazara
Mark Zuckerberg
4:13
Who is the next Nick Senzel? Besides Acuna, Flaherty, and other highly owned players.
Brad Johnson
4:13
How deep can I reach?
4:14
I'm super in on Jhailyn Ortiz.
That's going to take awhile though
If you're looking more near-term, I think you're asking about Vlad Jr. Bo Bichette, Luis Urias, or Fernando Tatis Jr. Not in that order.
Brendan Rodgers perhaps
Luis CKastillo
4:15
what ways are there to access your opinions about our fantasy problems?
Brad Johnson
4:15
Check out the signature at the bottom of the post.
4:16
I try to walk a line between promoting it and not beating everybody over the head with it. Not easy.
And just a general note: Ivan Nova batting is the best
John Haha
4:16
Trade Beltre for Margot? Not particularly desperate for speed, just as an upside play. standard 5x5
Brad Johnson
4:16
I like the buy low attempt
I also really like Beltre
works for me though based on your stated need
