If they all look plausible, then I did it wrong

Rotoworld is really pushing Matt Duffy -- am I missing something, fantasy-wise?
Brad Johnson
4:42
I mean, he's a nice high average bat who could hit near the top of the lineup
But I tend to agree there isn't a lot of room for fuss

Getting the feeling nobody at this site has any idea how to really value Ohtani going into 2020, as I've asked the same question at every chat for a month and nobody has even tried to answer it!
Brad Johnson
4:43
You're probably not getting answered because 1. It's premature since he's barely even throwing yet and 2. there's way too much missing context.

Keep forever dynasty, what sort of SP would you need to get to move Gavin Lux right now?
Brad Johnson
4:44
Maybe my goto Charlie Morton

So the Renfroe and Beede bold predictions look decent, and the Anibal one isn't yet impossible. The rest tho ...
Brad Johnson

25% accuracy is excellent for Boldings
4:46
Also, Adam Eaton is quite good for a specific purpose
He's perhaps the most underappreciated player this year.
And there was at least some useful signal in the Smith, Pressly, and Perez picks.

What are we doing with guys like Reyes, Honeywell in keep forever dynasty? Is there any way to get back value in a trade or is this a hold situation?
Brad Johnson
4:46
Probably stuck holding
AC

Is Pablo Lopez worth stashing or is either Plesac or Quantrill just as good an option already?
Brad Johnson
4:47
I might like Plesac about as much
I'd stay away from Quantrill
Greg

Gallo or Kepler ROS Roto OBP and SLG
Brad Johnson
4:47
Gallo for me
by a lot

I think CMart will be fine as long as he's not being asked to pitched 4 games a week. They've had a string of tight games, they need to give him a few days off.
Brad Johnson
4:47
Last year, he was pretty consistently terrible whenever working multiple days in a row
Jimmy

Gallegos have a chance to take the closers job in STL?
Brad Johnson
4:48
Yes, a chance.

I have $390 of $400 allocated to 38 players in my ottoneu league. there's a guy up for auction that i'd like to have at $3 - definitely now, maybe as a keeper. Is there a compelling reason not to simply bid $4 1) to better ensure I win the bid and 2) because the same $2 penalty is applied to $3 and $4 cuts. Thanks
Brad Johnson
4:48
No, go for it

If Tatis regresses moderately ROS is he a first-rounder in redraft 2020?
Brad Johnson
4:49
I don't think he's a first rounder in any circumstance
well, maybe in 15 or 20 teamers
but there's no chance he's a top 12 projection
Dinelson
4:49
Any chance Eovaldi still becomes the closer?
Brad Johnson
4:50
Did I miss something?
You mean the bad outing?
I think he's made the path to saves a little longer than it needed to be
But a couple sharp outings will put him back in the conversation
zoozoo
4:51
If Vlad doesn't start mashing the ball ROS, where does he get drafted next year?
Brad Johnson
4:51
Probably around where he was picked this year
frankiebones

Neither of your reasons re: lack of Ohtani responses actually apply to my question, so.... no worries. I give up.
Brad Johnson
4:52
Uh, would you prefer "he's anywhere from top 40 stud to a UTIL-only platoon bat?"
