What effects does a shortened season have on the importance of stolen bases?  Does it make it any more or less sense to punt them?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:27
Depends on the league. In roto, I could see an uptick with teams trying to win every game. In H2H, ignore with the increased volatility.

In a dynasty league in which I'm willing to trade Mike Trout for only prospects, who are the prospects I would need to receive in order to justify it?  Obviously it starts with Wander Franco, but who else would need to be included to balance things out?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:30
I think it'd take ~10 of the top guys for me and do I have the roster spots for them? I think you'd have to go for something like Tatis, Corbin, Fanco, and Pearson
Quadrangular

Is there anything particularly exciting about Mike Yastrzemski? Also, who do you like most from this group of starters: Lucchesi, Quintana, Desclafani, Archer, and Matz
Jeff Zimmerman
3:32
On Yaz, nothing exciting but stable at bats. I just ran my comp tool and Clint Frazier came up.

Who are your under-the-radar rebound candidates?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:33
I don't make grabbing Alex Wood and Matt Carpenter. Zero is expected from either one but could be top-100 players.
Randy
3:34
Who do you think gets the majority of the saves for the Giants?  Any under-the-radar candidates for saves on other teams with unsettled closer situations like the Marlins, Mariners or Cardinals?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:34
I'm Gott fan with the Giants. Best talent.
3:35
I like the top guys with the other three teams and gladly roster them. If the playing time doesn't work out, I spent nothing for them and they can be dropped.

Who do you think is the more desirable asset long term between Soto and Acuna in a league with HR, TB, BB, OBP, SLG, and NSB as categories?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:37
Soto. I think Soto is an elite bat while Acuna's current value is tied up with his steals.
Derek
3:37
how valuable do you think Cespedes will be in a season with the Universal DH?  Does he get the bulk of the PA for the Mets or would it be someone else like Dom Smth?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:38
The Mets should go with Smith but why not take a shot on either one. Also, it needs to be seen if Cespedes is healthy
Guest

How would you rank the Reds' DH/OFs for 2020? Nick Castellanos is obviously #1, so who's 2-5 in a 12-team re-draft?

  • Jesse Winker
  • Nick Senzel
  • Aristides Aquino
  • Shogo Akiyama
Jeff Zimmerman
3:38
Akiyama, Senzel, Aquino, and Winker
Adam Dawson

Just worried about Paxton's health risk, may go Rodriguez because of it.
Jeff Zimmerman
3:39
Just last season Rodriguez was the health risk.
Ed

Hey Jeff! I got too pitcher happy in my dynasty draft. I gotta drop/trade one - Cease, Urquidy, Civale, Manning, Gilbert or Boyd. Who do you recommend?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:40
Gilbert ... find out if these other arms are good first and then move on.
Ham Porter
3:40
If Aaron Hicks is healthy where do you draft him this upcoming season?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:41
No for now ... the Yankees have so much depth. That depth could be gone in a week or week once half the team goes on the IL

How likely do you think Puig will find a team before 7/1?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:42
Good, especially since it's a short season. I think he would have signed if teams could add him.
None can right now.
Ham Porter
3:42
Where do you draft/how many spots do you move up Cavan Biggio in an OBP League?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:43
I don't remember how much it was in OBP auction. I'd use our auction calculator to see the difference.
I Used to be Mel Clarke

If you were to map the 80 grade scale to fantasy baseball, how many players would fall in each 10-point range?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:45
80: 3, 70: 15-20, 60: 50, 50: 100
That over the first 10 round in a 12 team league as being average or better.
Bob
3:45
Howie Kendrick, Cesar Hernández, or profar in an obp league? What’s your order of preference?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:46
Hernandez ............Kendrick.............Profar
The most talent pitchers lead the league in Holds+Saves
Bob

Any under the radar save+hold relievers you like?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:49
In The Process, I found that the easiest way to predict Holds is to get good pitchers. Sometimes this works too well and the pitchers start getting Saves.

How much does Austin Riley's stock increase with universal DH in 12-team mixed league?
