That's a tricky situation
I think part of Hicks' problem is he skipped the upper minors. It's impressive he's competitive. But there's growth awaiting too
5:01
Viz is a justifiable alternative (saves), but Hicks could also be a long term relief monster
I'll add, the track record for guys who are supposed to grow into a relief monster role is not good
More Bruce Rondon than, uh, struggling for an example
Knebel

5:01
Would I rather start Castillo next outing or just punch myself in the balls?

Why is there no hype train for Jeimer Candelario? Will you blow the horn on this sucker? CHOO CHOO
Brad Johnson
5:02
Same asset class as Moran, better lineup role and plays every day
All aboard?
Dan
5:02
I was offered Giancarlo for Ozzie. Is this the world we live in now?
Brad Johnson
5:02
Do. It.

Can Brantley keep it up? 20 bombs 15 steals? Or is that asking too much from a guy with his health issues?
Brad Johnson
5:02
I'll say this, he can perform at that rate with a good average and run production
5:03
Getting the full season would be a bonus
and considering what he cost on draft day, that's fantastic
Edward
5:03
Got offered Corbin for Bregman. Worth it? I'm dying for pitching.
Brad Johnson
5:03
If you're dying then you can consider. It feels like the worst of buy high, sell low to me
Ohno Lomo
5:03
Thoughts on the Lomo slump? Hold him in a 20-teamer (where I found him lonely and cold on the waiver wire) or throw him back to the wolves? Thanks!
Brad Johnson
5:04
Hold in 20 team
Can cut him in 12 or even 14 teamers though
Time to wrap it up, I have lineups to build
hscer
5:04
if there's someone you wouldn't start vs Miami, you should probably be cutting them asap
Brad Johnson
5:04
Indeed

Any thoughts on the impending NFL draft? Do you see any 2018 MLB draft prospects having an NFL like impact on baseball: getting to the Show within a year?
Brad Johnson
5:05
Personally, I totally would dodge the draft. I can still do my job in Canada.
Sam

Trade Pillar for Odor in a deep 15 team league?
Brad Johnson
5:05
Yes please and thanks
Sanamor
5:05
Need to sit one, Davies @ KC or Happ vs Bos? H2H points league. KC has a .668 OPS vs Bos with a .810 OPS
Brad Johnson
5:05
Sit Happ
5:06
Pure matchup play
Aaron A

What should I hold out for in return for Charlie Morton?  Looking for a power hitter, but not sure if I can get equal value. I think Morton will stay solid, maybe top 20 starter ROS?
Brad Johnson
5:06
I think he's around there, yea. And I don't think you'll find corresponding value.
5:07
I'd be asking for boring power bats like Khris Davis. People sometimes missprice them
Aaron A
5:07
Andujar or Rendon ROS?
Brad Johnson
5:07
wut?
Aaron A
5:07
Trade Paxton before he gets hurt or am I already too late?
Brad Johnson
5:07
Neither
He has to pitch well before you can trade him
Tito
5:07
Is Lindor still good?
