The big unknown is the DH more than anything COVID relate. For example, if Mookie Betts hits in front of a pitcher instead of a regular batter, it'll cost him about 20 RBI. That's huge.

Do you think Ottavino closes in Boston (before he's traded)?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:23
He'll get the chance if/when Barnes fails.

Cesar Hernandez back with the Indians. Who gets a regular job between him, Rosario, and gimenez? Why wouldn't Cleveland sign an OF instead?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:24
They aren't done yet. They should be able to trade one of Rosario or Gimenez for an OFer

Zach Eflin is kind of interesting and with Caleb cotham in philly are you interested?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:27
Yes on Eflin, he made some interest changes. Cotham doesn't excite me.

What current free agents are you most concerned don't find a MLB home? (i.e. sign overseas, retire)
Jeff Zimmerman
11:27
Yadi, he's rosterable in all formats but could be done.

How many bucks for Paredes in AL only leagues?
How many bucks for Hunter Dozier in AL only leagues?
Jeff Zimmerman

Paredes should be around $10 or so. Dozier around $20

IP

Will Dylan Cease figure things out this yr, or does he have some fundamental flaws? Speaking of backend Pirates starters, how about Kuhl?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:30
I have no way to know but he did perform better after his trop to the alternate sight.

Jared Walsh or Joey Bart?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:30
Walsh, Bart is starting in the minors and may not get called back up this year.
Al Gone Quinn
11:31
I focus my prospect hunting (keeper league) on guys who are almost MLB-ready. Last yr I took a shot on Madrigal. Do you think Jeter Downs is in a similar position this yr, i.e. MLB-er by end of yr?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:31
Downs is a good bet.
Nolan Jones is another

How much do you think  it changes my ability to assess players if I listen to games on the radio vs. watching on TV?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:32
I'm not sure there is much to access from hearing what someone else thinks.

Dynasty...Have option of a combination of 1 of these arms and 1 of these hitters.....Skubal/Civale  and Kirilloff/Kelenic
Jeff Zimmerman
11:33
Skubal and Kiriloff for me

Lorenzo Cain:  Solid late round source of SB, or let someone else have him?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:34
I'd not count on the SB but just as an accumulator, he's fine
Marco Michitti
11:35
Should I keep Charlie Morton? Head to head points.
Jeff Zimmerman
11:35
Yes, he seemed to get it together in the post season.
Al Gone Quinn
11:35
Is this year worse for obtaining catcher value (outside the top 2 or 3) than previous years or has it always been this bad? Were the actual values we saw in 2019 an anomoly?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:37
I deal with catchers has their own class. Once more sign, I'll go through and rank the acceptable catchers (don't hurt my team) and add one of them.
11:38
Usually, there are only 19 or so of them so I don't' wait forever. If I don't get one of those targets, I'll wait until the last round and stream

My first online league was Grandstand Fantasy Baseball on AOL in 1997.  On what platform was your first online league?
Jeff Zimmerman
11:38
ESPN, it was the year Mike Sweeney had catcher elligbility.
