Brad Johnson
4:49
It's a one category temp patch who will probably later lose his job.
Sell or Buy
4:50
Domingo Santana in dynasty?
Brad Johnson
4:50
Hold
Too late to buy
Josh
4:50
You adding Jordan Lyles in a 12 teamer?  Has he done anything to take a legitimate step forward?
Brad Johnson
4:50
He took the step forward last year, it just didn't entirely materialize in his stat line
4:51
He's somewhere in the band of last 5 permanently owned SP to top 15 waiver streamers
I'm worried about his velo being down 1.5 mph though
So I still consider him a streamer
Dr. Funk
4:51
15 team roto and I'm chasing saves.   Either Bradley or Seranthony worth hanging onto or should I move on to others closer in line or in less stable situations?
Brad Johnson
4:52
Keep em unless you can spec on Jimenez or Buttrey
Maybe Diego Castillo. Maybe Nick Anderson.
Bill C

What's your take on Alex Gordon's newfound low-K approach? .290 type guy with 85+ runs and RBI?
Brad Johnson
4:53
My position on Alex Gordon is that I'm perfectly willing to completely miss out on him
I think he's probably addressed the most obvious hole in his scouting report, pitchers are still pitching into it, and they'll adjust momentarily
4:54
at which point he'll fade
Theodore R
4:54
Do you like Joc and Yandy over Vogelbach and A Gordon?
Brad Johnson
4:54
I like Joc over all three
LGM
4:54
Any love for Hildenberger?
Brad Johnson
4:54
BLAH
no love. He's a guy.
The Twins are using guys for saves. So he's stashable.
4:55
Too bad about May getting short shrift, and maybe losing something over the winter (hard to tell)
Mike
4:55
Hey Brad, are you still believing G. Hampson will contribute in 2019?
Brad Johnson
4:55
Some. Right now he's overmatched, but I think he'll adjust if given the opportunity
4:56
The Rockies almost have to use him right now so he has a limited chance here.
Orange
4:56
What's up with Justin Turner hitting only singles? Has age gotten the best of him?
Brad Johnson
4:56
Be patient
Tommy
4:56
So you’re saying I should drop DJ  or Josh Bell for Franmil Reyes?
Brad Johnson
4:56
If you need HR, I'd drop Deej
Otherwise, same asset class, different shapes
Aces Wild
4:57
Are you buying Frankie Montas’ start, and is Ty Buttrey the cover for Cody Allen if/when he gets dealt? Thanks!
Brad Johnson
4:57
Yes to both
Though ain't nobody going to trade for Allen
He's just going to lose his job then get cut
Montas added a nice splitter
4:58
but splitter guys tend to be volatile so be prepared for bumps
Kaline's Ghost
4:58
Jansen is killing me (10 team H2H).  But even in a 10 teamer, waiver wire for C is bleak (Beef, Barnes, Hedges, Vazquez, Alfaro).   Hold?
Brad Johnson
4:58
Hold, trade, or Alfaro
Nicholas
4:58
Cheap Pete Alonso or $50+ Freeman in Ottoneu fgpts?
