I bet throwing the helmet adds 5 games to whatever it would have been
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
10:31
DJ LeMahieu or Jose Ramirez at second base?
Brad Johnson
10:31
Easily Ramirez
Brad
10:31
When do you think you will get invited into labr or tout wars?
Brad Johnson
10:31
I won't. I never put myself on either wait list. Gotta do that when you enter the industry if you want in.
10:32
There have been some rumblings about forming a new industry league
10:33
Justin Mason wants it to be NFBC style so that almost everybody can participate
dee's nuts
10:33
Start Berrios today?
Brad Johnson
10:33
Yes.
Justin
10:33
Can you give us some examples of players you would trade straight-up for Trout in a redraft league?
Brad Johnson
10:33
Hmm, that's a tough one. Probably people like Justin Upton or Michael Brantley
Core performers but not stars
10:34
Remember, we're 1/3rd of the way into the season and Trout's going to miss most of the next third
Nelson
10:34
Do you liek Kintzler or Doolittle more ROS? would you trade Bradley Zimmer for either in a keeper if you need saves?
Brad Johnson
10:34
Well, I like Doolittle a lot more as a reliever... when healthy
10:35
has to be Kintzler though. I would not trade Zimmer unless it's a very shallow keeper
Mr. Nor'easter
10:35
I just lost Duffy to the DL and was able to add Zach Davies. My 12-team league allows nine SPs on each roster, so that’s more than 100 SPs gone … I’m sort of optimistic about the Brewers, and Davies is pitching better of late (though still few Ks). Is there some young starter flying under the radar who I might be overlooking?
Brad Johnson
10:35
Brad Peacock, Tyler Anderson, Zack Godley are the must-get ones if available
10:36
probably won't be
Maybe Dinelson Lamet of Miguel Almonte
I'd stick with Davies over them
RocketRockies
10:36
Rockies are at 63.4% chance of the playoffs, when was the last time Fangraphs had them projected to have a better chance of making than missing?
Brad Johnson
10:37
No idea, but I was scoffed at for picking them to win the division. I also picked the Phillies for a Wild Card so there's some merit to the scoffing
Nelson
10:37
you dont think he missed with the helmet on purpose?
Brad Johnson
10:38
Absolutely not. Watch the throw, it slipped out a bit early but the follow through was right at Strickland.
I mean, maybe he realized what he was doing and let go too early on purpose
but at some point, there was intent to peg a guy with a helmet
Baryolo Cologne
10:38
Thoughts on starting Tyler Anderson and Shark in a IP/QS league tonight?
Brad Johnson
10:39
I'm leaning towards using the pair in DFS tonight. And I'm generally more aggressive in normal leagues where I can use RP to fix mistakes
Josh
10:39
Anything worrisome in Matt Carpenter's slow start?
Brad Johnson
10:39
Injuries?
That's all I'm worried about
Bruce
10:39
Is Adam Frazier Dj Lemahieu without Coors?
Brad Johnson
10:39
I've said it early and often since last year. Profile is remarkably similar, right down to the eagerness to steal despite an inability to do so
Pie
10:40
How would you treat Gleyber Torres in a 12 team keep 5? Is he a must-pick up at this point, or is it still too soon?
Brad Johnson
10:40
In a vanilla keep 5, there's almost no way you're keeping him. If there's also a cost attached, maybe he has fringe value
the who?
10:40
maikel franco droppable in 12 teamers or not yet?
Brad Johnson
10:41
with CI, no
