Smith
Revisit if traded
I'd rather have the actually good closer
and maybe lose him later

I lost Clevinher in a 14 team league.  Instead of a crappy starter, picked up Stephenson and Buttrey.  You like the middle relief strategy?  Seems like lower end starters are all time bombs
Brad Johnson
4:16
I especially like Buttrey who I think will save upwards of 20 games
Nick
4:16
Is Aguilar back to a Qaud-A hitter? I haven't moved him yet, but I'm not encouraged by the last half of last season and the start this year.
Brad Johnson
4:16
Sure looks like he's been figured out
Buy Low
4:16
Solve the equation Matt Chapman + _________= Jose Ramirez
Brad Johnson
4:16
Charlie Morton?
4:17
I assume the premise is to actually buy low?
Chapman is a goodly chunk of the way there. Projects for more HR. It's the steals where Ramirez distances himself from Chapman
Josh
4:17
What’s your interest level in Martin Perez after his velocity gains remained after his first start?  Is he a speculative add in a 12 team mixed?
Brad Johnson
4:18
12-mixed is pretty shallow Perez. You're hoping to use him as a streamer there
Can stash until you have a better option though
Taco Bellsbury
4:18
Drop Trevor May for Buttrey in a 12 team mixed dynasty that counts saves?
Brad Johnson
4:18
Yes
LGM
4:19
What fly do you recommend for Silver Perch?
Brad Johnson
4:19
Bryan Flynn is the closest I have to a fly.
Mario Mendoza
4:19
JDDavis or Sano?
Brad Johnson
4:20
Well, Sano is going to play daily when he's back
but could be super rusty. The smart play is probably Sano, but you could make yourself look really smart by betting on Davis instead!
4:21
They're probably not as far apart as their name recognition would suggest
Jay
4:21
Injuries are the worst.
That is all.
Brad Johnson
4:21
Indeed. Except for good pitchers bombing everybody's stats everywhere.
Zion
4:21
At the end of the year Austin Meadows will have played himself into a top 3 rounds fantasy player. True or false?
Brad Johnson
4:21
I think false
Only because its sooo hard to produce that kind of value
4:22
The best outcome feels like Michael Conforto minus some HR and plus some SB
And Conforto wasn't even always picked in the top 100 this draft season
Zion
4:22
What do you think of Kikuchi? A hold in a 13 teamer?
Brad Johnson
4:22
Probably stuck with him
4:23
Look to sell if he ever heats up enough to induce a nibble
I think he'll be used too unusually to provide much fantasy value
Lejawn James
4:23
Would you do Muncy and Wade Davis for Nola? My replacement 3b would be waiver wire fodder but feel like this is a good deal (despite Snell, Sevy, Clev on the IL)
Brad Johnson
4:24
This is... difficult. I like the buy low idea on Nola, but there's a chance he's hurt as it is. And turning Muncy into a Jung Ho Kang or worse looks painful
4:25
I'd need to know more about the replacement for Muncy, your SV depth, etc.
Brian the Bull
4:25
So you have no hope for Dozier ROS? You said he's healthy, and he's "only" 31. The periphs are terrible, but how does one forget how to hit, if he's healthy?
Brad Johnson
4:25
I wouldn't say there's no hope
But I don't see any profit to waiting on him in shallow formats.
