Would you drop Morrow if you need the DL spot for someone else?
Brad Johnson
3:24
I mean, you said you "need" it, so yes. But I have to imagine you have a better option than cutting Morrow.

Would you cut J Martinez/J Harrison/M Duffy/C Taylor in a Dynasty for B Lowe or Cease?
Brad Johnson
3:25
Could consider Harrison and/or Duffy - especially if you're not contending.
Alex
3:25
Think Kris Bryant will be ok next year in a keep forever league or should I trade him for Albies (was offered Albies)?
Brad Johnson
3:25
I think he'll be fine. I'd also strongly consider taking Albies
I think if Rougned Odor wasn't often bad, he would be Albies
3:26
Never hurts to get much much younger in a dynasty swap

Best overall SS prospect out of Bichette, Tatis Jr., or Rodgers? And why?
Brad Johnson
3:27
By scouting report, it's Tatis. He's more actualized than the others.
Rodgers also has to find a way into the lineup. I kinda assume DJLM stays on a QO
And Story is a monster.

Speaking of speed guys, are you feeling any better about jonathan villar ROS?
Brad Johnson
3:27
In the sense that he should play everyday when healthy? Yes
3:28
In the sense that he has anything to contribute besides SB? No
Pat
3:28
Obviously Jo Adell isnt a sure thing, but what type of assets would you give up for a player like that in Dynasty?
Brad Johnson
3:29
Ideally, I'd trade a currently good pitcher with a weird track record. Pat Corbin springs to mind. I low-ball all day for prospects though. Or more accurate, I believe everybody massively overpays for them
In any case, if you go on my valuations, you'll often be laughed out of the room.

What is Shane Bieber’s ceiling? Floor?
Brad Johnson
3:30
Peak Josh Tomlin plus 2.00 K/9.
2018 Josh Tomlin
Wade Townsend

I was shocked that Brandon Lowe is 0 percent owned after clearing waivers on Yahoo. Why is there not much more activity on him?
Brad Johnson
3:30
No hype
3:31
Wait until Scott Pianowski learns he exists. Ownership on Yahoo new players is practically entire based on the recommendations of their touts.

Dynasty points league: Jake Lamb for Randal Grichuk and Trevor Cahill?
Brad Johnson
3:31
If you're contending, absolutely
If not. Well, that's probably a bitter pill
Harry
3:31
Chris archer and Jean Segura for Freddie Freeman and Jordan Hicks in dynasty?
Brad Johnson
3:31
Yes. Any price for Freddie Freeman
3:32
"practically any"
That trade is a huge massive win for you
Your leaguemates will whine and cry veto
Nigel Wilson
3:32
What do you make of Trevor Richards’ recent run? Great change up and four straight starts with double-digit swinging strike rates?
Brad Johnson
3:33
I think if he wasn't a Marlin we would talk about him a lot more
Since he won't have run support, he's only streamable in very specific circumstances
He looks playable tomorrow against Gant and the Cards

Just  how good do you think hiura will be? Eric called him a middle of the order bat the other day, would love that...
Brad Johnson
3:35
I don't have any insights on Hiura. He needs to improve considerably to be a mid-order bat though. Too many whiffs on an aggressive profile.
However, plenty of top prospects look like this as 21-year-olds in Single- and Double-A before making adjustments and going nuts
