Eno or Paul? Paul or Eno?

Hi Eno...or Paul,
Eno Sarris
11:57
It's Paul!!!
11:58
If you watch Broad City, you'll recognize this fire af jam from last week's premier. It's great:
Let's talk some baseball!

Dynasty league -- Michael Brantley or Justin Upton?
Eno Sarris
11:59
Going Upton here. Not only does Brantley have the shoulder this year, but the back from previous year makes him a little sketchy long-term, too.

Keeping Sale, Bautista, Springer in a h2h points league. What's your stance on "injury risk"?
Eno Sarris
11:59
I really focus on skills. I assess injury risk and try to bake it in, but in terms of Springer (who you might be referring to directly), that's a skillset I definitely want to bet on

Seems like a like the value of American League pitchers more this year, but I realize the NL is the "easier league". Are noticing that the AL pitchers just seem to have more upside/value?
Eno Sarris
12:00
NL is deeper at SP, IMO, but the fact that so many are going is probably pushing down the AL arms. Collette and I always worry about taking too many AL SPs in LABR

Eno, Eno, he's are man! If he can't do it...well somebody else probably can. There *are* 7 billion of us after all.
Eno Sarris

Eno does rule, but I'm p awesome, too

Felix.

Say the unthinkable happens and Jaso gets hurt and is projected to miss a month or more. Do the Pirates call Pedro? Does he hang up on them?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Man, I'm just not sure I can follow this hypothetical of Jaso getting hurt, it's too unrealistic dude. (I think they'd go to Josh Bell unless it was like April 9th when Jaso gets hurt)
Do you feel the Bern?
12:04
Is a Lucroy trade all but inevitable? Do you think he returns to prior form at the dish?
Eno Sarris
12:04
Yeah I'd say so and yeah I'd say so on that, too. I think he gets close to his previous levels. Injury was the clear reason last year. I'm buying back in '16

how old are you?

Pick two Players to pair with Solar and Betts: Cespedes, Bautista, Braun, Tulo, DeGrom. Keep forever. Gracias
Eno Sarris
12:10
well some of these aren't great propositions for the long-term, but let's focus on the here and now and keep deGrom/Bautista. I think too often we plan for 3, 4 years down the road in these kinds of leagues. Your future is covered (hopefully) by Soler/Betts so you can focus on now-talent w/these other two

I am preparing for a few Yahoo auction drafts and am really struggling with valuations of Correa and Macahdo (SS eligability) They are going for an average of $41 each and I'm wondering if I should make the plunge on either one. How highly would you rank them overall?
Eno Sarris
12:11
Machado is easily a top-5 guy w/SS eligibility IMO. I'd pay the price on him. I'd be less interested in doing so for Correa.

What would you do with the Rangers LF situation? Does Gallo see 100+ games this season? Mazara call-up? Sign somebody?
Eno Sarris
12:12
I'm on the Mazara train. I think they handle with it in-house.
Con

In a league that drafted Kershaw/Bumgarner like pitchers last year for $40-$45. Is Harvey at $36 a good keep for this year? Also Cueto at $16, Wainwright at $14, Smyly at $4. Any thoughts on this keeper staff?
Eno Sarris
12:12
I love Harvey this year so it is a pretty good value if the market puts aces at $40+, but I really like Cueto/Waino at those costs, too
Bobby
12:13
Playing for the first time in an auction draft 5 keepers. Any quick helpful strategy???

So when is the 2016 SP guide coming out ?
Eno Sarris
12:17
I'm really hoping to be done by next Friday heading into the first weekend of March drafts. All-nighters and Red Bull!!!

Hey Eno, pay attention to me! I'm a Fangraphs supporting member.
Too any of these chumps in this chart that aren't, time to pony up, Eno doesn't drink for free.
Eno Sarris
12:18
Eno's in Hawaii!

Am I right to assume that my league moving from Wins to QS helps Teheran? Quintana also sticks out...Who are some other pitchers you could see gaining from that?
Eno Sarris
12:19
Ya those are both good calls. (though the White Sox might finally support Q for some Ws), but ya it's good arms on weaker teams. Of course I'd be remiss if I didn't mention how volatile wins so someone on a bad team will definitely log 15 Ws for no reason lol
