Yes, because he won't face any of those pesky lefties
and his legs won't fall apart in early May
Lunch Angle

Wacha's velocity was down 1.5mph and he looked terrible against the Mets. Would it be an overreaction to drop him for someone like Triggs? 14 team dynasty, standard categories
Brad Johnson
4:44
No
I'm not a Wacha enthusiast
I'm super out on him
Steve

Are you a Gregory Polanco believer like your buddy Paul?  Is 30/30 attainable/realistic with health?
Brad Johnson
4:44
He's not that fast
and his stadium limits power
He could be a good 24/13 or so with run production and solid AVG/OBP
Ben

You skipped my question and I'm mildly upset. Is there such a thing as too many RP in SP slots? I have Montgomery, Peacock, Hicks doing work for me
Brad Johnson
4:45
Not unless you've triggered an opportunity cost of some kind
is an offensive spot empty? Then you have too many RP/SPs

Does Middleton have a chance to run with closer job?
Brad Johnson
4:45
Not really
Nobody runs with the closer job in LA
Hank A.

Is M. Franco officially worthless?
Brad Johnson
4:46
It's not official
I actually really like the way he's looked at the plate. Results would be better though

In a dynasty 12 team dynasty with 36 roster spots. Are you holding Amir Garrett to see what he does when he inevitably gets starts in Cincy? That velocity spike this spring has me intrigued.
Brad Johnson
4:46
I suspect I'm interested more in other players
4:47
Doesn't hurt to stash just in case
I just don't see him working as a SP

Rank these guys for save chances ROS: Josh Fields, AJ Minter, Addison Reed, Mychael Givens. Have Kenley and Kela as my only closers atm.
Brad Johnson
4:47
Minter, Reed, Givens, Fields
4:48
re: Fields being last - not only does something need to be wrong with Kenley for an extended period, he has to swat away Alexander, Baez, and others
Dumpster Diver
4:48
Stratton, Pivetta, Musgrove...do any of them end up being rosterable at the AS Break?
Brad Johnson
4:48
Justin Mason is paying me to say Stratton.
He's your best bet at this point. I think they're all bunk in 12-team mixed
John
4:48
Think the humidor will help Taijuan Walker post an era near 3?
Brad Johnson
4:49
I boldly projected the entire OD rotation to post a sub-3.25 ERA
So I think it's possible :)

5x5 H2H league, would you rather own a stud middle reliever (Gsellman, Robertson, etc.) or a middling closer (Ziegler, Soria)?
Brad Johnson
4:49
Middling closer
HBP

What are your thoughts on mikolas?  Looked far better than the stat line, I think.
Brad Johnson
4:49
Oh yea, way better
that late Thames HR ruined a superb outing
4:50
Thames was all over him though. Smashed two other outs
Virus
4:50
Did you catch Wilmer Font late last night? Thoughts?
Brad Johnson
4:50
Watched some of the highlights, mostly from when he was visibly gassed
