Jeff Zimmerman

No way to know right since no one signed.
Stb Fred
11:36
Do the Pale Hose actually go with a lefty closer in Bummer?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:37
I'm sure they'll add someone(s). It's early
Stb Fred
11:37
Most sustainable next year? Solano, Dylan Moore
Jeff Zimmerman
11:37
Moore, especially if the league counts stolen bases.
Curtis
11:38
Which free agent's fantasy value will be impacted the most by where he ends up?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:39
It's going to be closer, so I'll go with Brad Hand. With the Yankees, Hand is #3, or he could close every day for the Jays
RMR

Thoughts on Dylan Carlson?  I've never been a huge fan, but seems like a guy that could be a solid contributor without standing out in any one area.  Does a peak of 20-25 HR with 10-12 steals and a good OBP sound about right?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:41
He was so tough to evaluate. He was horrible, then IL, then decent. But it was only 2 months. I'd have no problems betting on him in a waiver wire league where he can be dropped.
Tokomo
11:41
Do you think Lourdes Gurriel is on the verge of a bigger breakout, or due for regression?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:42
I'd put him staying pat.
David
11:42
Do you see Madrigal as having solid value moving forward in points leagues?  As in top 10 2B value potential.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:43
It comes down the point system. If the league counts XBH and Walks, he could really struggle.
in that format
If the scoring is like the NFBC that tries to mimic Roto stats, he's fine there.

Garver had such a bad year last year - if he falls back to the under $5 range, would you buy back in or prefer alternatives?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:45
I'd buy in at that cost. Also, the catcher position looks horrible, so anyone with any talent might get pushed up.
Offensive Pitfall
11:45
Thoughts on whether any of these guys are worth keeping in an NL Only dynasty league that starts: 2C, 1B, 2B, SS, MI, CI, 5OF, U, 9P, no bench - $260 salary. I can keep 10, and already have 6 spots locked up on other guys (very solid pitching) - J. Berti-$6, A. Dickerson-$3, A. Slater-$1, G. Cooper-$6, M. Dubon-$5, D. Varsho-$6... I ended up with great pitching but barely any offense and got stuck with a lot of fringe options for offensive keepers.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:46
You're right about fringe guys. Berti and Varsho are the two for sure. The rest might be added for less in the auction.

Tarik Skubal mentioned on the Pitcher List podcast that he was just hitting his groove towards the season end (missed time w/ COVID) and worked with Boyd on a changeup. Are you bullish or bearish on the Tiger for 2021?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:47
They could be fine. They have a few holes to fill and are headed in the right direction.
DJ Tanner
11:48
You a believer in Rowdy and Jared Walsh like everyone else? Seems like if everyone wants the same sleepers, you have to reach to even get them.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:49
I was, but the price no longer has them as sleepers. The deal was that spending minute or two going over either one's profile the sleeper potential was obvious.
GooseGoosage
11:49
How concerned are you with Yordan Alvarez going forward. All the news I've heard so far sounds like good news...
Jeff Zimmerman
11:50
I want nothing to do with him until I see him playing every day in Spring Training.
GooseGoosage
11:50
How do you think Ohtani will do as a pitcher in 2021... or will he pitch at all?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:51
All indications point to him trying to pitch. The attempt could fail.
ARno
11:51
What do you expect for Austin Meadows in 2021?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:52
I'm not the person to ask for positives on Austin Meadows. I was not a fan coming into 2020 and nothing as changed. He a platoon bat so he has limited value in weekly leagues.
Joseph
11:54
Thank you so much for the advice everyone!
What's that Odor
11:54
OBP League, 2 Batters & 1 Pitcher who would you pick
Batters: Bellinger 4th rd, Story 10th rd, Albies 9th rd, Bichette 27th rd
Pitchers: Severino 8th rd, Snell 11th rd, Giolito 25th rd
Jeff Zimmerman
11:55
Story and Bichette (if roto)
Giolito and it's not even close for the SP. He's the best pitcher and the cheapest
Billy Brubaker
11:55
Any reason to think Andrew McCutchen slows down in 2021 at age 35?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:56
He'll slowly age, but nothing stands out.
ARno
11:56
Meadows as a platoon guy? Dammmmmnnn but thanks I appreciate your bold honesty!
Jeff Zimmerman
11:56
The Rays treated him as one
DJ Tanner
11:57
I have Adell on both of my dynasty rosters. His value took a hit, but he's still considered a top prospect. Sell or hold?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:57
Adell needs time in the minors, just hold for now.
GooseGoosage
11:57
Is it just me, or is KeBryan Hayes a big sleeper at his ADP? Had above average max eV and HardHit% with 8% SwStr% but he doesn't get nearly the helium Bohm despite superior peripherals
