In my dynasty league, someone is offering me: Jo Adell and Andres Giminez for Ke'Bryan Hayes. Would you accept that trade?

This is an offer I sent my friend Alec last night. He wisely chose to keep Hayes

Hitters recently have accumulated more home runs due to changes in the ball over the last few seasons.  The recent report suggests another change in the ball with the opposite trend in that the ball will travel less.  This clearly isn't going to proportionately effect home runs equally among the players.  How will this change predictions and projections going forward, with an eye on auction values?

A lot of people will brush off the changes with the baseball as not being a big deal, but we've learned historically that even subtle changes can have a huge impact when you look at league-wide trends. We have no idea how this new ball is going to play right now. So for the fantasy impact, my advice is to be ready to adjust a couple of months into the season. By June, we should have some quality data on what's going on.

My league rules allow us to keep 6 different players each year.  But due to the short season last year we now can keep any 6.  So...I will be able to keep Soto, Freeman, harper, Bellinger and 2 more from this group:  Bichette, Glasnow, Maeda, Burnes, Carrasco.  12 team 5x5 roto. Which 2 should I keep?  Thanks.

Another tough keeper questions that's a "good problem" to have. You're definitely keeping Soto, Freeman, Harper, Bellinger. Gotta keep Bichette. Then I suppose I'd keep Maeda. But then you're going to have to be ready to go hard after pitching in the draft. Also, my first preference would be to package 1-2 pitchers and maybe even Bichette for a higher-end starter

Please rank the following pitchers: Glasnow, Fried, Gray, Corbin,Strausberg. Also doesn't Strausberg have the best upside?
AvatarBrendan Tuma

Upside is a relative word but I get your point. I think I'd go Glasnow, Stras, Gray, Fried, Corbin. They're all in a similar-ish tier. I'd definitely go Glasnow first. He also has the best trade value

Who is your favorite catcher (outside top 5 ECR) to target?
AvatarBrendan Tuma

I hate the catcher position so much. I've been getting into Daulton Varsho lately, though. I think he's worth the "upside" and by upside I mean playing time. He's likely to play CF against right-handers, and if he also plays against lefties then you're looking at a massive playing time advantage over other catchers. So while I think his skills are fine, I'm most interested in the possible playing time cheat code.

Hey Brendan. I need your input on Brenden Rodgers, Gavin Lux, Mitch Keller, Jon Duplantier, and Lane Thomas. Also I need to know who should I prioritize for minor leaguers: edward Cabrera, Francisco alvarez, matthew allan, Zac Veen

Man, what are the Dodgers doing with Gavin Lux? I'm still high on him for what it's worth. Brendan Rodgers kills me. I just can't trust the Rockies to develop players at this point, which is why I'm lower on Veen than most. Mitch Keller is an interesting sleeper I'm buying into. Duplantier and Thomas, I'm not interested in.

I think that's going to wrap it up as I'm out of questions! Thank you everyone for hanging out for a bit. Don't hesitate to reach out on Twitter anytime @toomuchtuma

16 Team H2H pts league. Tough keeper calls and each move up one spot each year. Can only keep in rounds 1-8.  I have 2 8ths, 1 7th, 1 6th, 2 5ths, and 2 4ths.  Tatis Jr, Vlad Jr, Yordan Alvarez, Bieber, and Hiura can all keep anywhere.  Soto and Acuna rounds 7 and below and Yelich round 5 and below.  Other than Tatis and Vladdy in the 2 8 spots, how would you position the rest?  Sorry, it’s a confusing format so I tried to high level it.  Thanks
