Added strength last year; is doing it at AAA-Salt Lake (altitude and PCL caveat): .336/.403/.571 with 12 HR. History of double-digit walk rates; so OBP friendly. Interesting pull.

NL Only 5x5 - is it worth investing in Jordan Lawlar return?
Brent Hershey
12:45
Yes; and should be soon
Sean
12:46
In 15-teamer, Jeffers on waivers.  Worried about his power even after he is back. Is he a stash in a barren C market?
Brent Hershey
12:46
yes, if you have the room. Agree thought that will need to watch the power and make sure it returns.
Spalding
12:48
Hey Brent - happy Monday.  I grabbed Cavalli just in time to see him send my WHIP north in my 12 team 5x5. I'm going to get off that ride.  You like any of these replacements more? Boyd, Teng, Gasser, Abel, Roupp
Brent Hershey
12:48
Yeah, part of the package with CC; when he's getting you 7-10 Ks per game you can overlook the ratio damage but when not ....

Boyd the best bet; Abel is a similar type of pitcher who may have slightly better control. Roupp is also interesting; bit more of a floor play.
Porcho Villa

Is Detmers a hold for now, or would you drop for any of C. Scott, Luis Castillo, Sean Burke, or Ryne Nelson? (5x5 QS)
Brent Hershey
12:48
Would prefer C Scott to Detmers, but would hold otherwise
Vic Tayback

Hi Brent - I always let others fight over Jasson D. when the hype was highest but I was surprised to see him on the wire in my 12 team roto so I grabbed him.  What kind of production do you see for him ROS once he returns? Gimme some context, would you rather have Goldy or Jasson until Judge returns?
Brent Hershey
12:50
I'd want Goldy, as everyday PT is there and Jasson's defense still could give Boone pause to commit to him. But ... talent is there, too, to grab an OF job, too. Maybe a double-digit SB and HR guy in the best case?
David
12:51
NL Only--please rank Noelvi Marte, Edourd Julian (col) Bryan Torres (st Louis), Tyler Stephenson
Brent Hershey
12:51
Stephenson, Marte, Julien, Torres
Broken bat
12:52
4x4 ROS: Please rank, as trading one. Schlitter, Burns, Sasaki, H.Brown,  Sheehan, or Warren? Think it’s pretty clear between Sheehan or Warren. Thoughts?
Brent Hershey
12:52
Yes, unless someone believes in Sasaki more than you. Great strides recently, but track record is short
David
12:53
NL only--think I need to upgrade my minors roster - Seaver King, Jonah Tong, Steele Hall, Josiah Hartshorn.  Please rank
Brent Hershey
12:53
Like this order ... could see Tong/King flip, though.
Jackie Treehorn
12:54
Hi Brent! 12-team redraft H2H points league. Just flipped Arrighetti and Gelof for Schmitt and need another bat.

Can you rank the following in order of preference for this week and ROS?
Jackson Holliday, Colton Cowser, Luis Garia (WSH), Goldschmidt.

Follow up Meidroth > E Duran at SS?

Appreciate the feedback as always!
Brent Hershey
12:54
This week: Goldy, Garcia, Cowser, Holliday
ROS: Cowser, Garcia, Goldy, Holliday

Would take Duran right now

Hey Brent, happy Monday to you! Another owner in my league looking for steals wants to trade me Jung Ho-Lee for Jake McCarthy. I am currently in 3rd in our league, and my weakest category is probably average. I am also in 3rd right now in the steals category. I see Lee and McCarthy as very similar players actually, with Lee having maybe a better overall average and McCarthy having a few more steals most likely. I am leaning towards not doing this deal because steals are so hard to come by, and trying to gain advantage in the average category is such a hard game to play in my opinion. What do you think?
Brent Hershey
12:55
Agree; I'd hold
Guest
12:56
Can you please Rank this SP batch for ROS?
Schlittler, Cole, McClanahan, Rasmussen, Luzardo, Imanaga
Brent Hershey
12:56
Schlitt, Cole, Rasmuss, Luzardo, McClan (mostly on injury risk), Imanaga (HRs)
Tim
12:57
Do you believe in Jac Caglianone? Should I? Thanks.
Brent Hershey
12:57
Undecided. If you like your players immensely skilled but flawed, then yes.
Jeff
12:58
Hi Brent--How would you rank these catchers both for ROS and long-term value: Rushing, Jeffers, Alvarez, Kirk? Thanks.
Brent Hershey
12:58
ROS: Alvarez, Kirk, Rushing, Jeffers
Long-term: Rushing, Alvarez, Jeffers, Kirk
Lou

Grabbed Shane Drohan last week. His GB rate and BB rate are really favorable so far. Is this another Brewers success story unfolding? Possible he holds a rotation spot and Sproat goes?
Brent Hershey
12:59
Did the same in one league. Very much worth a shot. But because it's the Brewers, know they can also make some frustrating decisions from a fantasy standpoint.
Vince
1:00
Hi! 12-tm, H2H, category … is Drohan (vs PHI) worth holding as SP? How would you value Drohan, Z. Matthew’s (@DET), Melton (vs MIN, @CLE)? Thanks!
Brent Hershey
1:00
Yes, worth holding. PHI bad against LHP this year, though my Anthony Kay "brilliance" backfired over the weekend. I'd rank the three Melton, Matthews, Drohan for this week.
Lou
1:01
NL-only, 12-team, dynasty. Free agent bids today. How long will the leash be for Jase Bowen and his alarming K rate? Is Kevin Ginkel next man up with a Sewald injury?
Brent Hershey
1:01
Bowen leash should be short. Ginkel having a surprisingly successful skills/results season, I just realized last week. So .. Yes, he should be in the mix in that case.
Blondie
1:02
AL only, HOLDs/saves.  Please rank:  BAbreu, Strahm, Cleavinger.  All are sort of not as reliable as they used to be.  "Hold" on all of them?  Or drop any?
Brent Hershey
1:02
I'd drop Abreu. Velo down; can't find zone. Strahm, then Cleavinger
Daisy
1:02
AL only.  I have TMelton and TMadden.  My thinking is that I should hold them both even though SP roles look like they will disappear... but if Tigers sell...  What say you?
Brent Hershey
1:02
Hold
Chad
1:03
NL only.  Please rank ROS:  AAlvarez, SManaea, Lowder.  I cringe when I consider picking one of them up... but feel l should drop Tong and ReyLo.  Any opinions good or bad?
Brent Hershey
1:03
Lowder would be my first (only?) choice. Would hang onto Tong if I could, but yes, can cut Rey Lo
Blues
1:03
NL only.  Is Jared Young worth a pick up ROS?  Better than Ty France?
