but close
Swipe Right on Pinder?
5:02
Does Chad Pinder warrant a spot in a 16-team league with 27 man rosters? I don't know how his playing time is going to shake out but I traded Erick Fedde for him.
Brad Johnson
5:02
Yes
Chris Smith
5:02
Wrong FG feature, but CALL YOUR SHOT: Tim Anderson is basically Trea Turner (they're even only ~7 days apart in age!).
Brad Johnson
5:02
RONG
so rong
Tim Anderson, in his best season, still can't OBP his way out of a wet bag
54
5:03
Expectations for Ervin Santana? Low K/9 SP with a velo drop that has been outworking his peripherals for years... is he a pass, or worth picking up and giving a short leash?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Stash or stream
No Pop Ups
5:03
Does Votto hit 25 homers this year??  He's currently at 9!!!!
Brad Johnson
5:03
He probably does not
Not much time to pop 16
Jimbo

Keeper decision to make: is Devers a top-10 3B next year in a TB/OBP league?
Brad Johnson
5:04
Off the top of my head, not quite
Let me look
Yea, not quite
But you might not use Ramirez or Bregman at 3B
5:05
Which would bump up Devers
Henry
5:05
Jose Ramirez is a consensus number 2 pick next year?
Brad Johnson
5:05
Consensus? No.
We're going to have a bunch of wiseasses taking Ramirez or Betts ahead of Trout. Enough to make the 1st three picks real interesting
Tim
5:06
Not sure how involved you are in this, but any guesses as to why Fangraphs and PECOTA have such a different projection for the Nationals/
Brad Johnson
5:06
I tend to lose focus on actual baseball standings until late in the season
Too much day to day maintenance of my own teams
5:07
My guess is that one site really doesn't like certain Juan Sotos and one does
The model for projecting standings is similar, all that's different is the input from the projection systems used
Hannah Hochevar

Brian Goodwin in KC going to go back to being good?
Brad Johnson
5:08
I'll lean no, but I'd love to take a flier or two in a deep league
Keep 3 next year
5:08
Bellinger Acuña Pollock Albies Abreu Scherzer Chapman
Brad Johnson
5:08
I'm so sorry you have to choose
Assuming no costs and you do this every year, Acuna, Albies, Belly
Could replace Bellinger with Scherzer if you want to lock in an ace
Chris Smith
5:08
loved your response!  i agree, of course (hence the hot take).  It's funny looking at their respective season lines to date, though!

re: Anderson/Turner
O....K
5:09
Who ya got in 2019 - Contreras or Realmuto? (OBP league and no SB)
Brad Johnson
5:09
Contreras
vft
5:09
Is JD a first rounder next year?
Brad Johnson
5:09
Probably not
And it's not because he hasn't shown consistent first round skills
5:10
Age, injury, and absurd star power league wide will push him outside the top 12
Connecting…
