He keeps running into injuries at the wrong time. I love the pure stuff, but I wonder when the injuries will start to affect the stuff.
He'd be a closer now with better health luck.
The M's are looking into dealing Sewald supposedly to help fortify the roster.

How solid of a keeper is Gleyber at $18 in an AL Only?
Brad Johnson
2:29
Solid but unspectacular. I'll see what a calc thinks of him
2:30
He's at $15.5 ytd so like $22-24 pace. Toss in some age-decay, projects for like $20 next year.
2B or not 2B

Gleyber or Altuve, OBP league?
Brad Johnson

I need to start wrapping up so no new questions please.
That way I can keep my record of answering all subscriber questions!

The Gleyber/Altuve question evokes a shrug from me. I lean Altuve but don't feel strongly or see much of a statistical reason to prefer one to the other.
We've seen Altuve struggle when not fully healthy which seems a risk. They're pretty similar in 4 of 5 categories if we assume full health. Altuve is superior in OBP specifically.
2:34
Altuve skews a bit more R over RBI. Gleyber is pretty balanced. Similar projected R+RBI overall.

My league allows players to be kept ROS if they switch leagues.  Making teams drop players who switch leagues is so dumb.  No one gets their stats from USA Today any more.
Brad Johnson
2:34
I agree, I like such leagues.
2:35
I'm open to the idea that such players can't be traded and vanish once they hit waivers.

Hey Brad, Tyler O’Neill or Josh Lowe ROS? Need power and a little speed.
Brad Johnson
2:37
I'd go Lowe. Honestly, they're probably the same asset class even with regard to your needs, but Lowe has the better recent performance and is a bit faster.
Which one?
2:37
Would you start German over Framber? Both have two starts. Valdez vs CLE and @NYY ... German vs TB and vs HOU. Worried about Valdez ruining my ERA and WHIP category. German recent struggles + Houston matchup also makes me nervous. Thanks!
Brad Johnson

Yeaaaaaa, I don't love either of those pairings right now.
I'd want to sit 'em both
And that's all folks. gg
