No, I don't own one on any of my teams
I'm fine with Piscotty as a streamer.

In a 7x6 league can I justify punting 2 categories or is that too risky and I should just stick to punting 1?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:35
I think you can do 2 if:
You punt them completely and shove in the other 11.
3:36
Watch others for the same idea.
Punting steals isn't going to be advantage if 4 others are doing it.
3:37
It might be best to do one offs like AVG and/or ERA

What did you think about Derek Carty’s Twitter thread on SBs today? Is the ideal strategy to go after guys who may be projected at their ‘steals floor’?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:37
From some work coming in The Process, steals are getting way over valued
3:38
Part of the issue is the NFBC with the overall. Punting can't be done.
But Todd Zola has found that the teams who win the overall finish the lowest in Saves and Steals.

I got offered Morton, Greinke, Doolittle for Julio Rodriguez (Mariners prospect), Trevor Bauer and David Price in a keep forever dynasty. I have Soto, Eloy and Rosario as starting OF so this is a no-brainer take right? It seems way to easy especially in head-to-head. Thank you, just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Make the trade and win

Odds Puig is in a someone's starting lineup on OD?
Jeff Zimmerman

Maybe 1%  ....

12 team mixed, H2H, 23 man roster, 5 bench. Should I mainly carry extra bench SPs or bench hitters?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:41
I've been struggling with this. I'm usually a 5-6 pitcher, 1-2 hitter guy, but I may move to 3-4 hitters.
Big Joey
3:41
Do you think a relief pitcher winds up leading the league in Wins (beats the top SP)?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:42
No but I bet there is one in the top-5. And whoever gets him in the first couple weeks will have a huge advantage

How much of a headache is Dusty going to be with Kyle Tucker's PT this year?  He can't really give Reddick the lion's share of the PT out there in RF, can he?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:44
Dusty has already come out and said it's Reddick's job
RMR

Seeing Gallen further down on SP ranks than I would think.  Am I crazy?  Lots of whiffs / Ks, good control, kept HR in control, no real injury concerns, etc.  Other than lacking premium velocity (and I guess more of a track record), what is he missing?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:45
The DH hit hurts him some.
I think he's good, just not elite
Mike Hawk

If our league has an IP floor of 25 per week or you have to forfiet all pitching points, and you have to carry 3 of 9 spots for relief, how many starters would you target and still stay competitive in standard 5x5 cats?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:46
Maybe 6 to start with to be safe
Jim

Do you think Verdugo is worth snagging late in drafts?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:46
Yes, perfect filler bat.

I missed out on premium 1B. how would you rank these 1b in an OBP league: h Kendrick, yuli gurriel, j smoak, e Thames, Daniel Murphy
Jeff Zimmerman
3:46
Gurriel and it's not close
Quadrangular

Are you particularly "in" on any of these guys for 2020: Evan White, Kyle Lewis, Alec Bohm, Andrew Vaughn, Jo Adell, Carter Kieboom?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:47
I like the first three quite a bit
Out on Lux?
3:47
You mentioned you see Lux as a platoon guy this year - are you high on him in a dynasty or meh on him in the future as well?
Jeff Zimmerman
3:47
I'm about the lowest person you will find on Lux
3:49
I could be wrong but the Dodgers will platoon him if needed
Jim

Do you like Corey Seager this season? With all the good SS out there Seager is available much later in drafts.
Jeff Zimmerman
3:50
He's a great value this year since. Hitters coming back from TJS seem healthy at this point.
Peter

Brendan McKay or Rich Hill?
Jeff Zimmerman

Hill by a mile
