Welcome everyone

It'll be a few more weeks of fantasy football and then everyone can focus on baseball drafts.

Most intriguiging OF outside of the top 300 redraft

Jeff Zimmerman

11:01

Let me look

Mitch Haniger if healthy

11:02

Adam Eaton depending on where he signs

Sam Hillard if he gets everyday at-bats.

David

11:02

Vlad Jr., will he get 3rd eligibility this year or should I trade him since I don't need the 1B help?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:03

Wait until the everyone has signed. They could add a SS and someone could move to 3B. They could sign a 1B and force Vlad back to 3B. Just wait

Brian

11:04

Have you seen any info on how fantasy providers are going to handle positional eligibility for 2021 given that 2020 was only a 60 game season? Will players keep any positions they had from 2019?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:04

CBS is going with 10, NFBC 8, others I don't know

Has anyone else heard?

Alex

11:04

What do you think of Austin Slater's season?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:05

He's OK and if playing every day, the stolen bases are nice.

The problem is that he's a borderline talent, so he can sit quite a bit.

Ji Man Soy

11:05

what is nick pivettas best outlook for 2021

Jeff Zimmerman

11:06

From the waiver wire

RMR

11:06

Any bats you would move down significantly if we assume no DH in NL for 2021? Dom Smith? I was mulling a deal for Brednan Rodgers in dynasty and this would seem to hurt several Rox hitters fighting for PT.

Jeff Zimmerman

11:07

Maybe Smith. If they trade for Lindor, I'm about 80% sure Cleveland will ask for an OF, so Dom could play there.

All the Dodgers, they seemed to use it for a day off for all their bats

Maxwell

11:08

When do we start drafting Juan Soto 1st overall?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:08

He could be right now in leagues that count walks.

11:09

It just comes down to how the league values SB's.

David

11:09

Clevinger is slated to be my final keeper. Worth hanging on to him for 2022 or should I just try to find someone else who will take his keeper place during the season?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:09

It depends on the replacement.

Mickd

11:09

Hi Jeff! Which late round pitcher do you like better? JorMont, Elieser, Zack Davies, Dane Dunning, or Dylan Cease?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:11

Hernandez and it's not close for me. I do like Montgomery as a solid 2nd here. I'd love to draft both if given the opportunity

M80sGoBoom

11:11

How should I be valuing guys like Trent Grisham and Kyle Tucker in an OBP league?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:12

I'm not sure of the question. Just like you value every other hitter similar projected stats.

Guest

11:12

12 team 24-player keeper with OBP + SLG.
Which side do you have for Hiura+Adell for Lux+Kelenic?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:12

Lux side

RMR

11:13

Inherited a kind of crappy roster in a dynasty league, so looking to reboot a bit. Trying to trade Bauer to get out from under some of the pitcher related risk there. Talking to another owner about a deal Bauer and my #4 pick in the FYPD (was looking at taking Kim) for Machado and Brendan Rodgers. Thoughts?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:14

It's so even. I'd do it, but kind of standing still. Trying to keep the pick and move an older player.

Who you got

11:14

Thanks again for all the chats.

Jeff Zimmerman

11:14

No problem

Jeff

11:14

Hi Jeff, in a 6x6 roto keeper league that uses OBP and slugging instead of average, for which of the following 3 players would you extend their contract for 3 years? Austin Meadows ($18), Matt Olson ($19), and Yordan Alvarez ($16). Two util slots, 14 hitters 12 pitchers, $280 budget.

Jeff Zimmerman

11:15

I'm not high on any of them

It'd be Olson, but I don't like it.

Mickey

11:16

Rank in order: L. Robert, Trent Grisham, Tucker, S. Marte? ?

Jeff Zimmerman

11:16

Please add some context.
