Justin Bour or Joey Gallo ROS in 5x5? Really only need power from whomever I chose
Brad Johnson
5:03
Gallo then
Sebastian

New approach for Lindor. Should we expect something in between this year and last?
Brad Johnson
5:03
Yea, plan on 25 HR
Brad Wesley
5:03
Thoughts on Merrifield going into next year? Is this season repeatable? Where does he slot in range-wise for 2Bs? 30+ SBs is a big time output these days
Brad Johnson
5:03
It doesn't smell like it to me
5:04
He was never viewed as a base thief. I think this is one of those times when a guy runs a lot while earning his every day role, then realizes he doesn't need to do it anymore
helps that he's a Royal though
You know Yost wants to send him
Dylan

Who has a higher ADP next year: Bellinger or Hoskins?
Brad Johnson
5:04
These next 2 weeks matter
If Hoskins keeps on at this pace, it's probably him
Otherwise, definitely Bellinger
5:05
if I had to pick one today, Bellinger
Slapshot
5:05
Who would be your most surprising and most disappointing players from a fantasy perspective for this year?
Brad Johnson
5:05
Too many surprises to bother listing them
it's been an absurd season
Simply absurd
5:06
Miggy, Donaldson, Villar, and Story are some of the prime busts
I won't comment on pitchers since "total bust" is part of the price of admission
EK
5:06
I'd want Hoskins over Bellinger - better plate discipline and park.
Brad Johnson
5:07
I don't disagree re: batting skills
although, a smart fantasy player would take a similarly talented veteran with a higher floor and lower ceiling
Torrey
5:07
Would you rather keep Lindor or Bregman assuming Bregman is $15 cheaper? OBP league. Seem like similar players but with Lindor having a better hit tool.
Brad Johnson
5:07
Lindor
People fuss too much about pricing discrepancies.
5:08
If the question is LindorA or LindorB, then sure, I'll take the $15 cheaper model
Otherwise, take the best player and pay less for the role player
Brad Wesley
5:08
FWIW... totally agree with you on Merrifield... none of the stats jump off the page as outliers to me, but just doesn't feel repeatable

What do you think, sit or start Aaron Nola today? SaberSim is only giving him .28 of a win.
Brad Johnson
5:09
I think I'd start him. SaberSim still likes him today despite the low chance for a win
Dan
5:09
I think i lost peralta for a little bit, is haniger a viable option for lf
Brad Johnson
5:09
Yes

Why aren't teams giving JD Martinez the Bonds treatment with how hot he is?
Brad Johnson
5:09
Why aren't they doing it for Hoskins, Olson, Stanton, Bellinger, Judge, or a dozen other guys
5:10
oh, Trout
Funny how forgettable he can be
Anyway, when there's one Bonds, you can decide to walk him every time
When everybody mashes like crazy, I think it makes sense to ask your pitchers to figure it out
Connecting…
