and, yes, I see it...

You in or out on Schwarber?
Brad Johnson
3:57
In
Big Tuna

Now that Kang is likely not coming over to the states, does Harrison continue to start for the Pirates for the rest of the season?
Brad Johnson
3:57
He was going to start anyway
just not at 3B
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
3:57
If you like that one, there are two more similar questions...hope you see those too.
Brad Johnson
3:58
Saw 'em but figured I'd get down to business
Nelson
3:58
Any reason to doubt Schleber getting to 30hrs?
Brad Johnson
3:58
Yea
I'll even elaborate, hold on...
3:59
So initially, he was hitting way more fly balls with a sharp increase in power. Lately, he's been shifting back towards grounders. Also leaning on a 27.1% HR/FB%
4:00
Now, given the home park and a 40 percent fly ball rate, he can still easily reach 30 HR
but there is reason to have some doubt
Nelson
4:00
Should we still consider Villar as a 3rd roundish talent?
Brad Johnson
4:00
No
4:01
He's a mid-round guy due to the upside and speed
Bo

Is it reasonable to drop Carlos Santana in a 12-team 5x5 mixed H2H? He's still so high in a lot of expert rankings and I just don't see why. I'd be dropping him to open a utility spot for Mitch Haniger when he's off the DL.
Brad Johnson
4:01
I think a lot of rankings get infected by OBP
I don't see him as droppable, but that kind of depends on your format
4:02
I'm thinking standard deep rosters
if you're not using CI, then yea, you can cut

Better fantasy bat in dynasty OBP leagues - Bellinger or Joc?
Brad Johnson
4:02
Bellinger
Choos on First
4:02
Would Kershaw or Trout be the Jordan of that group?
Brad Johnson
4:02
Hmm, if you're making a movie, I think you have to make Harper the Jordan
4:03
nobody wants to watch a movie with Trout or Kershaw as the lead
JD15
4:03
How do you handle guys in daily playing against knuckleballers? Rather have a guy like Josh Bell vs knuckle or Chris Taylor against non knuckle?
Brad Johnson
4:03
It's the one time I'll check BvP. I usually avoid unless there's some compelling reason to do otherwise
Mark
4:03
Kendrys Morales or Carlos Santana?
Brad Johnson
4:03
Push
Crazy 8

More valuable in dynasty OBP league: Bogaerts or Bregman?
Brad Johnson
4:04
Bogaerts
Tex

Perdomo had an ugly second outing last week, and he's @WAS this week. Bail on him for the week?
Brad Johnson
4:04
He's a streamer. So yes, avoid his bad outings.
Choos on First
4:04
Start Jared Hoying vs Procello or Peraza vs Carrasco tonight?
Brad Johnson
4:05
Well you're certainly sitting on attractive options
I'll go Peraza
maybe Carrasco throws 2 IP
StL Steve
4:05
Vetoes seem ridiculous unless you can prove collusion...which is next to impossible
Connecting…
