They tend to be weekly lineups too, and I think that's the height of bullshit
5:06
Speaking of, that's a natural segue to my article on how to fix weekly leagues - https://www.patreon.com/posts/19840762

Hold or sell Moncada in a 10 team OBP keeper if I’m competing?
Brad Johnson
5:06
Sell
Format is stupid shallow. You can find a non-name brand replacement in the future

You indicate in the Winker article "minimal soft contact ". What's the % youd consider ideal?
Brad Johnson
5:06
0%?
5:07
I like to see low-teens
When a player starts pushing 20% then it's a sign there could be some problems in the profile
Stuff that maybe isn't showing up in other common peripherals
5:08
Not an automatic issue, some guys can make that work - especially speedsters
Just something I pay attention to
Would rather a hitter smash everything. Obviously

Donaldson & Kemp for Thor fair trade?
Brad Johnson
5:08
That's a tricky one to parse
I need a lot more context
5:09
League size, keeper or not, team needs/strengths?

Pivetta + Vlad Jr (reasonable keeper price) for Strasburg + Morton in a 12-team keeper league. Need pitching. Thoughts?
Brad Johnson
5:09
eh, I'm having trouble seeing that win you the league
Trade Vlad for the league title
Or keep him

Worth taking a shot on Donaldson in a 14 team dynasty points league (points favor power/obp guys)? Would you trade Nimmo, Conforto, Archer, or Robles for him? Thanks!
Brad Johnson
5:10
I might trade Archer for him
That smells reasonable
The others, I'd keep

Love the write up on weekly leagues.  Part of the reason I tune out 90% of the NFL leagues I join.  Weekly is just boring.

Re: the donaldson trade - 10 team h2h obp redraft, pitching mediocre. Strong on offense
Brad Johnson
5:12
It's a can-do gamble in that case
Don't be shocked if it backfire. Sounds like you need to take a chance, and you might not find a better SP using those assets
5:13
Time to wrap it up, thanks for playing.
A few more before the shop closes for the day

Should I sell Blake Snell while he has his highest value? What should I look to get in exchange?
Brad Johnson
5:13
Don't force it. Let be known that somebody made you a competitive offer for Snell and you want to see if anybody else is interested
5:14
That's usually the best way to shop a "sell high" candidate as long as you don't overuse it

Dynasty 15 team keeper league: Moncada+Segura+ how many closers to get a chance at Ozzie Albies?
Brad Johnson
5:14
For a chance? 1?
Not sure that's a good use of resources
Why not target a better player?
5:15
Albies has so much value tied up in his name brand
