Jeff Zimmerman
11:20
He's not going back to the rotation
11:21
If a starter, no. I could see him be useful in a 15-team league for deeper
Biff Loman
11:21
You buying into Jesse Winker's progression from last season?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:22
It was weird for him. Sort of. The deal is that when he's being drafted, I like other guys around him, so I'll likely pass
Sandy
11:22
Tristan Mackenzie. Is he a solid keeper option 16 teams, or do you think he ultimately ends up in the bullpen?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:22
Take a chance for now
Matt W.
11:23
Trent Grisham do you see a bump in HR's, stolen base or average in the future?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:23
For now, a prorated repeat of 2020 would be great.
11:24
His issue is his batting order. He got dropped down a lot last year.
Mike
11:25
Ottoneu 5x5: 51$ Cole + 12$ Soler for 4$ Framber Valdez, 30$ Stras, 32$ Snell. Which side do you like?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:25
The three pitchers but it's fair
Nick L
11:25
How much of Abreu's 2020 is repeatable? I think he can hit .300 again but 40 HR might be best case. HR/FB was really high last year.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:26
I'm pretty sure 2020 will be his career season. He'll be good but no repeat.
Duchess
11:26
Is there much separation from Dane Dunning and Patrick Corbin at this point?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:26
No, if Corbin can't regain his velocity.
Schilling & Pence
11:27
Suppose I feel that there are 3 players of roughly equal value at the top of my draft (call them Trout, Betts and Soto), and I have my choice of draft position.  How important is it to drop to #3, if at all?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:29
I think it's key if you want a SP in the 2nd round. With the three having hitters rostered, they will be picking up SP's and talent my drop off.
Konstantin
11:29
Thanks and happy holidays
Jeff Zimmerman
11:29
Same
Reuben
11:29
How do you quantify risk in your player valuations?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:30
Loaded question since there are about 100 different "risks"
I have a playing time adjustment based on talent and previous playing time.
11:31
The rest added into my projection busting research.
Pat
11:31
Think Berrios is an ace or going to breakdown?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:32
I think just more of the same. He's been the same pitcher for about five seasons.

What is holding up MLB from deciding to have a NL DH or not?  MLB informed teams recently to operate under the assumption that there will not be a universal DH in 2021. Lack of a final decision continues to have impact on free agent signings and trading activity.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:32
Follow the money
11:33
It needs to be bargained and teams want a longer postseason.
Aceman
11:33
Should every team be in on Sonny Gray with that friendly deal?Could always trade him yourself if you fall out or someone else is in need
Jeff Zimmerman
11:34
I think the Reds are just listening to offers and could be the A's and Rays and just jump at what they think is a great deal.
I think the Reds are going to ask for a ton.
Toddfather
11:34
Benintendi can pretty easily bounce back and slash.280/.350/.475 right?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:34
I'm not going to gamble on it
PB&Js
11:35
Deep league help please, don’t laugh! Kiermaier or Duvall more valuable over the next 3 years?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:36
That's not bad, I've go worse. Kiermaier. I think his D will keep him in the field
Peter
11:36
Tyler O'Neill increased his BB%, cut his K%, and increased his ISO in 2020, just don't look at the rest of his stat line. I had been encouraged by his ability in minors to adjust to a level after periods of struggle, but idk anymore. What do you make of him?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:37
He's like a new hitter each season. I'd be nice if he just picked a lane.
11:38
Find the SP's including openers who just have SP right now.
People are lazy and will look for the double designation.
