I decided to pass
Stan

You really think Teoscar loses playing time to Grichuk?
Brad Johnson
4:56
I did not say that. I think Teoscar plays pretty much daily. At least this year. I just think the skill set screams 4th OFer
barring improvement
Stan

Is markakis a top 20 outfielder rest of season?
Brad Johnson
4:56
No
Not close
Mike
4:56
People are saying that Votto's power outage is a result of his back, but the xSLG suggests otherwise. Is he that same 30 HR/season guy going forward, this 15 HR pace iteration, or somewhere in between?
Brad Johnson
4:56
Between
He's aging
4:57
The last few seasons, he's discovered fixes to keep the numbers afloat
Eventually, he's going to run out. Best case, he turns into Joe Mauer
Worst case, he stops hitting with several years left on his contract
Jeffe

In a keeper league what kind of SP would you look to get in return for C. Seager?
Brad Johnson
4:57
Something premium
4:58
Maybe with risk like Paxton
Jeffe
4:58
Realistic targets for trading C. Seager in a keeper league? Looking at Bauer, McCullers, Snell, Nola
Brad Johnson
4:58
Those targets work for me
Fredrick
4:58
Touki or Dylan Cease?
Brad Johnson
4:58
I ignored this the first time it was asked because it seemed so random
4:59
Cease seems to have the brighter future to me, Touki could reach the majors a full season sooner
But why are these the two guys you're looking at?
Find some hitting prospects instead

i'm about to start a rebuild. been offered yordan, baez, and 17th pick in 1st rd rookie draft for cody allen/posey. decent, or hold out for bichette instead of one of the other pieces?
Brad Johnson
5:00
If the guy has Bichette, push for him

do you think nimmo is for real?  glad to see mets saying he'll remain a full timer even with cespedes eventually back...
Brad Johnson
5:00
More or less, some regression due, but should remain the best hitter on the team
Sleeper Star
5:01
All things equal, who's the better player for a H2H, Categories, Dynasty League: Brandon Nimmo - or - Rhys Hoskins? (Note: I'm competitive this year)
Brad Johnson
5:01
Ugh, that's tough for me because I'm a second adopter of Nimmo (Eno gets first adopter credit)
5:02
But I think I still have to bet on Hoskins figuring it out
DRL
5:02
That's good and all about bregman, but that's a far cry from JoRams numbers
Brad Johnson
5:02
The numbers I cited were pretty much exact replicas of JoRam. Ball isn't flying out of the park, but it very well could. All the peripherals I look for are in place.
5:03
home runs are the only area in which Bregman is substantially different
Tommy Tutone
5:03
What do you think of B Zimmer long term?  Is he somebody you would buy in a dynasty league?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Yes
Easy buy for me
I always figured he'd need 2+ years to adjust to the majors
Vince
5:03
Paxton + haniger for trout or Harper?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Yes
Anything for Trout
