boi-eee
Let's go

Is Jesus Luzardo the real deal? He has the prospect pedigree. Is this just a fluke or has he found something?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:02
The talent has always been there; it's been the health
11:03
If he's staying healthy, he's an SP1
sorry internet is sketchy currently

Hi, I'm in an 8 team H2H 5 bat keeper league. I was proposed this trade: I send Austin Riley, Matt Olson, and AJ Smith-Shawver for Jackson Merrill, Junior Caminero, and Robbie Ray. Thoughts?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:05
trading (relatively) depreceating assets for the new and fresh hotness - classic keeper move I'm usually in favor of
I'd make that deal

Is Nootbar/E Perez and 15% of his FA budget a fair trade for Tatis in an NL only 11 team 5x5?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:06
No, I don't think that's nearly enough

Is there any hope for Sandy turning it around this year?  Can’t really find anything to be optimistic about in his numbers.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:06
Right?
11:07
I'd had much higher hopes but at this point you can only throw up your hands
Usually I can find something positive -- it's really a stretch for him
Kirby
11:08
How long a leash does he deserve?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:09
A prettty big one. I mean, the guy who doesn't walk batters or give up a lot of bombs, has three walks and three HR in two starts
11:10
I'm not going to assume the atypical is the new typical until he keeps getting hammered
11:11
but one more blowup and it's the pitchforks, george!

In redraft leagues, is Juan Soto a good buy low candidate? or do we think this is just gonna be a bad year? For example, would you deal PCA for Soto? James Wood for him? Do you think it would require more than that?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:12
excellent buy-low
  1. .239 BABIP
  2. .294 xBA
  3. He's still Juan Soto
Mike
11:13
Rest of year, who would you rather have Nick Pivetta or George Kirby in a categories league?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:13
Ugly start but I'd still take the Georgy
Bob
11:14
Do you think Bednar officially got the closer job back?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:14
Yeah, looks that way but they've proven multiple times how short the leash is
their best-case scenario is Bednar staying good/building enough value to trade off
11:15
so I'd caution investing too much

AL OBP 2C keeper league. Adley (expensive) or Caminero ($6)? Adley replaces Quero; Caminero replaces DJ Lemahieu. (It's a league with larger dump trades only allowed in late summer, so Caminero will be worth more then.)
Nicklaus Gaut
11:15
Love me Adley but I'd rather have Caminero
11:16
I hate investing long-term in catchers, even elite ones
Logan Evans
11:16
No question. Just bummed they're kicking him to the curb instead of Hancock after going 8 innings on 80-ish pitches.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:16
SO ANNOYED
he said, thinking of how many shares he acquired two weeks ago

11:17
Is it my fault I was fooled by Michael Lorenzen? Drop for an rp, even in an AL Only?
