Corbin, Snell, Grienke, Castillo, Strasburg, and a few others on the short list

Ottoneu 5x5 - 74$ Trout for 9$ Corbin, 8$ Alex Reyes, 3$ Jose Martinez. Thoughts?
Brad Johnson
4:50
Gimme Trout!
4:51
Literally nothing I want to keep in the other side
If we're talking Trout for keepers
You should be getting like a $3 Eloy or Hiura plus at least 2 more nice pieces
Assuming you're the one selling Trout
4:52
If it's the other direction, you're in heist mode

Trade Rizzo and Canning for P. Corbin. Have Smoak and Gallo to replace Rizzo at 1B. Thoughts on this trade?  Thanks Brad

It's an aggressive attempt to solve a pitching issue with one of the 10 guys who's supposed to be good and IS good.
I have no problem with it

Do you think the Dodgers would try to move Pollack's contract now that Pederson and Verdugo are going crazy?
Brad Johnson
4:53
Nope
I think they'll juggle everything like they always do
Kitch Meller
4:53
Still like Yandy Diaz or is he just a replacement level player?
Brad Johnson
4:53
He's better than rep level
More like 2 wins
And yes, I like him
I'd like him if he was rep level because he's damned interesting

Christian Stewart is, and always has been JAG. He had a hot streak..... that’s it
Brad Johnson
4:54
That raw power, decent contact skills, and 50% fly ball rate are just too promising to label him as a guy
4:55
If you're referring to his total set of tools, they're bland
I agree
But for fantasy purposes, they're bland in a 30 HR kind of way
RJ

FYI - the Tigers have just recalled Candelario

boom
Connie Mack & Cheese

My team this year includes Judge, Stanton, T. Turner, Blackmon and Springer.  Just needed to get that out.

to your suggestion of trying to trade eloy...what kind of SP could i reasonably try to get back in return?  points league
Brad Johnson
4:56
My goto target is Charlie Morton
Because he's typically undervalued.
4:57
The challenge with pitchers is... well
We've coined and talked about The Glob plenty on FanGraphs
If you don't grab above The Glob, then it's a dart throw
Some of the spots are regarded as better than others, but actual value is still roughly the same
4:58
So, you can probably grab one of the better-regarded Glob Guys
but he'll still be a Glob Guy
Al Reyes

Which side you like in trade? Kris Bryant for Devers and Mike Minor?
Brad Johnson
4:58
Bryant, unless you really need the pitching
Von Hayes

Is Renato Nunez a 30 HR guy now?
Brad Johnson
4:58
Who isn't?
