The time you take and the quality of your response in these chats is great. I'm really appreciative of your input here, and without it I doubt I'd still be on this website for fantasy baseball help (regular baseball articles aside)
Brad Johnson

Hey Kirk, I appreciate it. I did, however, edit your comment to be friendlier.

What's your overall policy on trading for injured players? Do you view these as a "buy low", or do you steer clear?
Brad Johnson
5:00
I definitely approach them opportunistically
5:01
I pretty much only approach trading from an arbitrage perspective. I'm looking for divergences of valuation.
I'm not shy about admitting it to anybody, but some people take it the wrong way.
Pat
5:02
If my IL spot is full should I drop guys like Clevinger and Upton
Brad Johnson
5:02
depends on opportunity cost. i.e. who are you picking up and what will the provide compared with a future healthy guy
Cameron
5:02
J.D. Davis or Bryan Reynolds RoS?
Brad Johnson
5:02
Davis
Time to wrap it up. I've been informed I must attend a wine sale asap
Ben
5:02
Who is a roughly equal value pitcher for Josh Donaldson at the moment?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Uh, I find myself going back to Charlie Morton again
Pike Trout
5:03
Why did the Yankees sign Stanton instead of JD Mart?
Brad Johnson
5:03
They didn't really. They traded for Stanton because Derek Jeter waved him in front of their noses for peanuts. At the time, Stanton was a better asset than JDM. Shit happens as they say
Brew Ha Ha

In a roto redraft are you dropping Hiura for Jeimer or C. Stewart?
Brad Johnson
5:04
Not Stewart right now
Probably not Jeimer yet either
I'd rather hope Keston figures it out
Voldemort
5:04
Where would you rank Matt Chapman ROS? Top 30 hitter?
Brad Johnson
5:04
Yes, somewhere up there
Jim
5:04
...are the Dbacks really going to play Alex Avila over Carson Kelly even after dumping JR Murphy?
Brad Johnson
5:05
I guess so. It's kind of irresponsible for Avila to be catching given his concussion issues
Voldemort
5:05
You can edit our comments???
Brad Johnson
5:05
:slow grin:
Tony
5:05
Does Devers have 40hr potential or does his low FB rate make it unlikely he'll reach that potential?
Brad Johnson
5:06
No, 40 is massively aggressive for a lefty at Fenway
Ant
5:06
Rank these 3rd basemen in a keeper setting: Sano, Vladdy, Devers
Brad Johnson
5:06
Vladdy, Devers, Sano
Mike
5:06
Are you buying that Hunter Dozier can hit .280avg with 30 homers?
Brad Johnson
5:06
Maybe more like .272 and 28 HR?
darren
5:06
live & die with j-ram... right?
Brad Johnson
5:06
Yes
eD
5:06
Muncy or H. Dozier? ROS?
Brad Johnson
5:06
Oh, that's tricky
5:07
I'd poll it if I wasn't about to press End Chat
Gonna say Dozier only because of assured playing time
5:08
Ok folks, that's it. You should join today's The Daily Grind Invitational on FantasyDraft. It's a $2 no rake GPP which means the site isn't taking a slice. And it's guaranteed prize so maybe the site will end up paying more than the entries.
