I only get one?
Can we wait until after the season?
I'm going to answer that: yes
4:37
Not Archer or Gray probably. But maybe one of them

Brad Johnson

I like the Moose swap. I hate the Stanton swap

Brad Johnson
4:38
Sounds like you're gonna win
Go win that shit

I keep seeing Crick and Rodriquez bandied about as potential replacements in PIT if Vasquez keeps scuffling or is hurt. What about Glasnow? Seems like a closer waiting to happen but maybe they want to keep him stretched to be a starter...
Brad Johnson
4:38
So I spent all spring writing about how the DBacks would avoid closing with Bradley because it's almost impossible to convert a guy from closer to SP
4:39
I think the same is true of Glasnow
More true even
Bradley looks pretty fringy as a SP - the DBacks just absolutely need that depth (they're starting Clay friggin Buchholz)
Glasnow still projects above average

Where does Max Muncy fall on the Justin Turner - Chris Taylor spectrum, for you, in fantasy 2018?
Brad Johnson
4:40
This is another spectrum that doesn't compute for me
Max Muncy is Brandon Nimmo's clone.

When the hell is Gleyber not going to bat 9th?
Brad Johnson
4:40
Probably when his peripherals improve

What are your thoughts on Bellinger from a Dynasty perspective? Is this who he is? A .240 hitter w/ 20 hrs? Or do you think he'll figure it out and be closer to the player from last year? I'm trying to decide if I should think about moving him while I might still get value
Brad Johnson
4:41
Honestly, you've identified the range of outcomes. It's a spectrum of possibilities. Anybody who says they know how he'll turn out is a fraud
He needs to make adjustments and those are always uncertain
4:42
I did think he was the most likely big HR bat to decline, so I'm gonna pat myself on the back for that one

12tm roto dynasty. Staff is Nola, Maeda, Snell, Morton, Roark,Quintana, Hendricks, Gausman. Really need closer. WOuld you trade morton for LCastillo and Treinen?
Brad Johnson
4:43
I think so. Morton hasn't ruled out retirement after the season
I doubt he retires, but it's a risk. You should be happy with one or both of Castillo or Treinen for years
I love Morton though

Stick with Rake Lamb over options like Villenueva and Andujar?
Brad Johnson
4:43
So much 'eh'
4:44
Pick whichever makes you happiest. They're all pretty bland fantasy bats. Lamb and Villa probably won't lose their jobs. Andujar is an obvious candidate to get Machadoed.

Shouldnt the Tigers sell Castellanos? he looks like hes finally figured it out and hes not "young". They should be able to continue to stock the system right?
Brad Johnson
4:45
Well... who is out there offering quality young players for an above average hitter with no defensive home?
And nobody is going to buy the .407 BABIP. His other peripherals are declining

archer, reyes, and cueto on the DL. rodon likely getting called up...drop one for him?
Brad Johnson
4:46
I don't think so

Quintana for Sanchez, which side do you like?
Brad Johnson
4:46
So many Sanchi...
