I think my training is going to force me to pick Tanaka
As much as I think that's a legit coin flip

Dee Gordon a good trade target for SBs? He hasn't been running much lately and has been disappointing overall, but is probably due for a bounceback.
Brad Johnson
4:54
The best target
Aside from Trout/Betts

Thank you for those ideas. I already own Clevinger, Morton, and Pivetta plus Strasburg, Nola, Rich Hill, and Shane Bieber (dice roll).

With that kind of staff, should I be even looking for a SP or should I focus on a mid-tier bat? Need 2B or SS help (have Escobar at either position) and possibly OF help.

It's always good to try to improve everything. Sometimes, finding an upgrade to a strength can help you solve a weakness later

Is Descalso a viable everyday 2B? He's been surprisingly and consistently good, and plays almost every day.
Brad Johnson
4:55
If he plays, yes

Robles and Bird or Bellinger in a 14 team dynasty points league? Thank you!
Brad Johnson
4:56
As Robles basically hasn't played this year, it's very difficult to compare him to Bellinger. I think it's safer to take the Bellinger side, but I could see being aggressive on Robles
Historically, betting against the prospect side of the deal is a winner

Who would you rather have ROS. Braun, Gardner, or Desmond (12 tm roto w OBP)?
Brad Johnson
4:57
Braun
Desmond is a guy I'm trying to buy though
I moved a little too late even though I had the info I needed in a timely manner
Just didn't really believe he could recover
Brad!

Musgrove got lit up by the stinking Reds his last time out.  Are you holding any shares, or is he just a streamer in a 14t league?
Brad Johnson
4:57
I've got a 12 team share
one lonely share
4:58
Roster is bouncing between 1st and 2nd, but the pitching staff is Paxton+garbage
I think ideally, a Musgrove belongs on a bottom feeder roster

prefer eflin or pivetta keeper? same price
Brad Johnson

Pivetta

Is Nimmo a younger left handed version of AJ Pollock? Keep forever. I’m thinking between AJs age (30) and injury prone, Nimmo might be the better long term OF#3?
Brad Johnson
4:59
I'm not really buying this comp, but I can see preferring Nimmo at this point
Still waiting for the league to adjust to him

What is the appropriate response when someone offers Matt Koch or Seth Lugo for my keepable Eugenio Suarez in an NL only league?
Brad Johnson
4:59
Poor Suarez
Legit good fantasy player and has no value
5:00
Just say you aren't taking offers for Suarez
In the unlikely event they fall in love, they'll start sending real proposals

Been offered Kris Bryant, Strasburg, and Correa for my Vladito and Senzel in a H2H Keeper league. The players offered are basically rentals (you can only keep a player for three years maximum, and they've already been kept that long), and Vlad Jr. and Senzel are at the start of their keeper cycles. I'm on the fringe of contention after a few years of rebuilding a team I inherited--fifth place in a twelve-team league. Would you pull the trigger or hold?
Brad Johnson
5:01
This would be easier if it was a roto league
One thing you can try is evaluating the actual roto scores. Are you doing better or worse than the totals imply?
5:02
You have to feel like those three give you a largely upgraded chance to reach a money spot
Typically, H2H is too fluky for that to be true

Leonys or Josh Harrison in a 12 team roto? Thanks!
Brad Johnson
5:02
Harrison in most cases

Is Altuve for deGrom/Schwarbs a fair trade in dynasty?
