Robert Stephenson just returned to the Angels' bullpen after TJS.  Is he worth a look in a AL-only, 5x5, Roto league?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:59
Limited upside but for volume RP innings? Sure. should be good for K and good ratios

My dynasty team is suddenly overloaded at catcher. I already had Raleigh and now have Herrera and Rushing getting big league playing time. A big trade this summer to upgrade somewhere else feels necessary. (Rushing can stay in a minor league slot until he exhausts rookie eligibility.) It's a 30-team league and my club is in sixth place at the moment. Trading Raleigh feels nuts but he's the oldest of the bunch, so it's probably the best long-term move, given how catchers age and how often he plays. Trading one of the younger guys would help me compete this year but could hurt once Raleigh gets into his 30s.

My decision will naturally depend on the offers I get but any general thoughts on the predicament?

In a vaccum, I'm looking to move Raleigh - even though I lo-oove me some big dumper
12:00
But Herrera is a fine replacement, Rushing is a great young asset, and Raleigh would easily bring the biggest return
Like I said, love me some dumper but that seems like a good process trade

How would you rank Bohm, Nootbaar, Burger, Doyle and Tovar ros (head to head categories)? Would you drop any of those guys for Correa or Otto Lopez?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:02
Tovar > Doyle >> Bohm/Nootbaar >> Burger
I'd drop Burger for Correa
buffy, the umpire slayer
12:03
My next player replacement draft is at the half way point of the season. What ratio of ROS projections and more the recent actual results would you recommend. I am thinking around the 50/50 ratio?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:03
I'd weight it a little more to ROS projections - say 60/40?

What level of confidence do you have in Gunnar returning to at least a second or third round value rest of season?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:04
Pretty high, especially 3rd round
I think he's a solid value the rest of the way
seems like a classic not-ready-for-fantasy-primetime pick
12:05
but his profile lends itself to having a lot of leeway on what his overall value ends up being

Could you please rank these young AL pitchers for the rest of the season?  Zebby; Cameron; Gusto; Cecconi.
Nicklaus Gaut
12:06
Zebby > Cecconi > Cameron > Gusto

12 team 5x5 categories league. Are Megill and Doval enough to keep pace in saves?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:09
ehh, might be a little shaky
Doval could keep the job and you wind up with a combined 25+ SV ROS
12:10
or SF's bullpen goes back in flux and you end up with <20 SV
I'd probaby bet on the latter
Chad

Would you trade Gunnar straight up for Soto in a redraft league?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:10
100%
12:11
try to do it twice, if possible

12 person league, weekly H2H. I've got Wilson, Neto and Seager but can only play 2 in any given week. Who should I be trading at this point.
Nicklaus Gaut
12:12
I refuse to trade Jacob Wilson -- going down with any ship
Ideally, I'd move Seager
but it would depend heavily on the market for him/Neto
RAGBRAI

Has Baty hit himself into a full time roll? If so does he keep it ROS?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:14
For now but I mostly think they're just riding a current hot hand
Oh, it was yar
12:15
Yarbrough gonna keep making people forget Garret Cole?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:15
My sources say...unlikely
to be fair, my source is my kid's magic eight-ball
but I stand by my reporting
TEX

Can embattled closer Iglesias turn it around or do I drop?
