Brad Johnson
4:47
I could see selling yourself on Giolito the Ace
But, that's not a percentage play
Trout Cannons
4:47
Will Smith or Carson Kelly next 3 years?
Brad Johnson
4:48
I'm going to say Kelly because the Dodgers are going to have Keibert jumping in the mix next year.
Ranking Rojas?
4:48
What about in terms of profile and pedigree? I'm considering dropping gregorious for him as I mostly play semien and have mondesi on the mend.
Brad Johnson
4:48
Well, Rojas as no pedigree to speak of...
4:49
The profile looks like Semien with more SBs
zen arcade
4:50
Drop Luis Robert or a quickly fading (injured but playing) Domingo Santana in a deep mixed redraft 5x5 roto league?
Brad Johnson
4:50
I'd be surprised if the White Sox promote Robert
They only promoted Eloy to start the season because he signed an extension
They'll punt Robert back into 2020
4:51
And frankly, it's not like he's a must-promote player. His batting profile is all kinds of early career Javy Baez
Including an over 20% SwStr% at Triple-A (hint: that's bad!)
Feddy
4:51
Sorry to ask a keeper question, but in my two keeper league, I have Acuna as my first keeper, and I’m trying to decide between bregman and verlander for the second one. What do you think?
Brad Johnson
4:51
Bregman
4:52
That's two perennial first rounders
The concept of a 2 keeper league is confusing to me
4:53
It just seems like an excuse for a couple sharks to start with an ace in their hand
DJ Tanner
4:53
How deep of prospects would you target in a deep dynasty? Luis Matos seems like he could be one of those surprise international guys to rule fantasy in 3 years. Do you track guys like this and do you encourage snagging them in deep dynasty?
Brad Johnson
4:53
I have a share of Matos in a 25-team league and very nearly traded Paxton for a package headlined by him
4:54
So yes, in deep dynasty, I'm absolutely digging for pop up international guys
Though my personal skill set is in finding Rojas and Aquino types
Getting Rowdy
4:54
Rowdy Tellez just got called up after a scorching stint in AAA. Think he regains his mojo? Rowdy or Mike Ford?
Brad Johnson
4:55
That's a push for me. I like Fords traits more, but I'm not sure he'll play as much. Especially if Gleyber's random core pain is gone
Antonio
4:55
who hits more dingers ROS Harper, Soler, or Aquino?
Brad Johnson
4:55
Soler seems like the safest bet. I wanna say Aquino though
howdy
4:55
any chance one of gallo or stanton provide any value for playoffs?
Brad Johnson
4:55
If your playoffs start late, maybe
4:56
But they're tracking for mid-September returns
Possibly a little earlier
Snowy
4:56
Which of the Braves young starters do you expect to be in the rotation next year? Soroka-Fried-Ian Anderson seem like locks, but a lot of uncertainty after that
Brad Johnson
4:56
Soroka is the only lock for me
Khrush
4:56
Is Khris Davis droppable at this point? Or is there still hope?
Brad Johnson
4:56
In shallow formats, definitely
Has been for a while
Lucas
4:57
Jesus Sanchez another Marlins prospect steal or just a regular OF of the future?
Brad Johnson
4:57
High volatility OFer
I think the median outcome is rather Nick Wiliams-like
You keep looking at him and wondering why the results aren't better
4:58
He has all kinds of Face, and I think that's holding up his prospect status a tad
Connecting…
