Tim McLeod is my guy for Japanese and Korean imports. I think he said 20/10 with a high OBP. So, maybe like teammate Alex Verdugo?

How do you think the Jays catching situation shakes out? If you were Ross Atkins, who would you trade and who would you keep?
Justin Mason
10:57
It feels like Jansen is always the guys in rumors. I think the Blue Jays would prefer to move Kirk, but his defense makes him less valuable on the market. In the end, I wonder if any of them gets moved.

Michael Harris had a 238/284/365 slash line with 2 home runs against lefties last year...is it possible he ends up in a platoon situation next season? I have him in 4 of my 5 leagues
Justin Mason
10:58
I don't think so considering the contract they just gave him.

Is america ready for Jordan Montgomery to flourish now that he’s a Cardinal for a full year?
Justin Mason
10:59
I am! I have faded Montgomery for years, but I now may be his biggest fan in the industry!

Jorge Mateo, Bal.  Last year was the first time Jorge got some run.  SB's and pop.  Do you think he O's have something here?
Justin Mason
11:00
I think he fills the role until the plate skills kill him. So as long as they don't sign a big name, I think he plays a bunch.
Pops
11:00
Leclerc going to close for the rangers this year?
Justin Mason
11:01
I think he will get a shot, but I don't feel confident he holds it.
Nervous for Mervis
11:01
Will the Mashing Mervis hit big league pitching or is he just picking on the youngsters down in the sticks?
Justin Mason
11:02
I was pretty impressed with him at the AFL. I hope he is as good as he looked, but big league pitching is much harder than what he has seen and the price is getting more and more expensive.
Pat Listachio

I have the #3 pick in a dynasty! Assuming Julio and Soto are gone... am I crazy to be tempted by Tatis? Who would you take there?
Justin Mason
11:03
I do not think you are crazy. I would probably go JRam or Turner because I am always trying to win now, but Acuna and Tatis should be in the discussion.
Go with the player you want to watch for the next decade. If that is Tatis, then do it!
Electrician

What kind of deal do you see Matt Carpenter getting?
Justin Mason
11:05
I assume a 1-year with a mutual option. There will be a team that needs a utility guy or veteran clubhouse guy, but it is hard to see where until we see where the other free agents land.
Ms. M
11:05
How dare you!
Justin Mason
11:05
Easily

11:06
If you were a free agent, what would be most important to you? Money, winning team, playing time, city, etc?
Justin Mason
11:07
I think it usually comes down to money. Older guys that have been paid typically care more about the other stuff or if a player is getting a huge bag anywhere.
TC
11:07
Are either of Ha-Seong Kim or Luis Rengifo everyday players next year?  Looks like Kim probably plays 2B everyday, but how confident are you of that?
Justin Mason
11:09
I feel pretty confident Kim starts the year playing every day. Once Tatis comes back, he will need to hit, but he should still play. Rengifo should play too as things stand with the Angels, but I feel less confident in him

Points league...is there a huge difference between Clase and J Doran? Both are holdovers -- Clase is 12 bucks, Doran 1.
Justin Mason
11:09
I think there is a pretty big difference there. Duran may not be the closer. I recommend running your point system through our auction calculator and seeing what it says.
Justin
11:10
Bassitt or Senga?
Justin Mason
11:10
Super close, but I lean Bassitt right now. A bad landing spot could change that. I will have my projections on Senga done today, so that might change it too.

Last year we heard how S Espinal Tor was a gym rat in the offseason but only hit 7HRS and was no shakes on the bases.  Utility guy now?
Justin Mason
11:10
I think so.
Maris
11:11
Do you think Baty will make the opening day lineup?
Justin Mason
11:11
Seems unlikely unless he crushes in spring.
I do think he is up early though.
Maris
11:12
Straight points league. I have Jazz Chisolm for 2 bucks in option year. He's been injured every year. How long would you stretch his contract? Thanks
Justin Mason
11:12
I hate long terming guys with injury woes, so no.
The Glob
11:12
In an auction, how would you handle the glob of SPs from 30-60? I think I'm going to wait and take whoever is left at the end with $2 bids
Justin Mason
11:12
I like this approach. I think I would just try and play in the shallow end
Nelly
11:12
Pick one... Oneil Cruz or Elly De La Cruz
Justin Mason
11:12
Oneil
Ms. M

What has been your favorite deal so far during the off-season?
