Let's start with JP Crawford re: not ready yet
1:55
Crawford probably gets a call sometime next year, but I'm not longer convinced it's a guarantee
he has to start to really hit
Galvis' power outburst is mostly a second half phenomenon
says one of two things - there's either more power in the tank for next season, or this is all a fluke
1:56
ISO takes 3 years to "stabilize" for those who follow regression rates
so half a year of big HR numbers is more likely to be noise than signal
Galvis did add a leg kick, but it was well before the power showed up
overall, I think he's a lower OBP Zack Cozart
1:57
the defense will keep him on the field

AJ Reed or Cron for next year and beyond?
Brad Johnson

Cron
Maybe Reed long term, but he has to prove he can hit
Reed was never a blue chip prospect
we all got very excited about his 2015, but he backslid this year

Gsellman a go against ATL today? Atl has been putting up some runs of late
Brad Johnson
1:57
eh, I'm not using him

Joey Bats looks like a 4th+ rounder in 2017, huh?
Brad Johnson
1:58
Smells about right to me
we'll see where he lands
I'd love to see him playing first base in Coors :)
1:59
Cargo, Blackmon, Arenado, Dahl, Story, LeMahieu, Murphy, and Joey Bats!
damn...

Keep three (10 team mixed): Harper, Arenado, then one of: Yelich, Story, JD Martinez? Also, I lost the playoffs last week and my coworkers convinced me to play fantasy football. It's so boring. How do I cope?

What do you expect from Pujols next year? I have him for $20 in ottoneu. He's obviously aging, but it doesn't seem like a crazy price.
Brad Johnson
2:00
It's not a crazy price, but I'd sure prefer something better and/or cheaper
it's hard to contend if you're paying $20 for a Pujols
even if the spreadsheet says you can

After last night's performance against the mariners, do you like Estrada in upcoming matchup with Yankees in Canada?
Brad Johnson
2:00
He's hurt. I like healthy Estrada plenty. Hurt Estrada is a nightmare to manage

2017: Urias is a top ___ SP?
Brad Johnson
2:01
40?
60?
Still inning capped to some degree
and the Dodgers still have a couple thousand SP

Looks like AJ Reed is going to retain rookie eligibility (at 114 AB right now, hasn't played since 9/11), is he worth keeping at a rookie salary in an AL only 4x4 ($5/$260 on a three year contract)?
Brad Johnson
2:01
yes
2:02
I'm not a huge fan at the moment, the potential for 30 HR and solid, mid-order role is too good to dump
