Dozier's value increase/decrease going to LAD?
Brad Johnson
5:00
Close to same
5:01
He'll play a little less often which might help him perform at better rates
better lineup should equal better rates too
Unfortunately, since it's a left-coast team, you might get stuck with some 1 PA pinch hit games if you're not setting lineups at 6:30pm ET

Drop Teheran for Gohara or Touki in a keep forever? Just trying to get ahead of the game on the Braves rotation. Thanks!
Brad Johnson
5:02
Meh
That's all kinds of shrug in my opinion. Do what feels right to you
Perhaps there are other, better teams to get ahead of?

Trade Cruz for one of Corbin or McCullers>?
Brad Johnson
5:02
Plausible
Should be acceptable from the other end
Max Power
5:02
Any effect on Max Muncy's playing time now that they have Dozier?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Unlikely to start against left-handed pitchers now

obviously this trade is good for villar's playing time, but i'm not sure if i see anything positive in his profile. do you see anything promising? anything overwhelmingly awful?
Brad Johnson
5:03
It's mostly bad bad bad
but he'll run
that's... cool

Hi Brad,

This is usually the end of the chat
An odd time for hellos

Will Snell be TBs only conventional starter now? Or will Faria/Beeks/Chirinos get starts?
Brad Johnson
5:04
I think Faria will be a normal starter
I expect to see Beeks and Chirinos in the hybrid starter role
Bartolo
5:04
Would you drop W. Peralta or Fry for Tepera?  I guess this is another way of asking how quickly Giles gets the role in Tor...
Brad Johnson
5:05
Probably pretty quickly
but those two are so bad that I'd cringe from using both of em
So betting on further Giles hiccups seems reasonable

Glasnow gonna stud in TB?
Brad Johnson
5:06
According to Jon Heyman, the Rays actually acquired Glasgow - a city in Scottland
That should help them to fund their new stadium
5:07
In all seriousness, I doubt the Rays send Glasnow to stud. That would be weird.
And deeply illegal
I assume
It's Florida, why am I assuming

Is it fair to say muncy in a split, he hits 172 wrc vs L and 156 vs R in 70 PA vs 242 PA
Brad Johnson
5:07
No but look at the lineups. Is Hernandez just not playing anymore?
5:08
That could be the answer
or Puig
