Is Alec Bohm a reasonable fallback in a 12 team mixed that counts walks? What do you project for him this year?
Justin Mason
10:38
I have Bohm projected for 16 home runs and a .326 OBP. If he ever lists the ball, he could be special.
Wil Myers
10:38
Are people sleeping on me, or no
Justin Mason
10:38
Not anymore. His ADP has gone up almost 200 spots since signing in Cincy. Go read my most recent first base market report!

Did Burnes hasten his departure from Milwaukee when he openly complained about the arbitration process?
Justin Mason
10:39
Nah, if he wants to sign there, they would love to have him. I think he wants more money than there are going to be willing to give him though.

When I use my auction calculator the estimated $ values for 1B like Rhys Hoskins, Ryan Mountcastle, and Rowdy Tellez diverge sharply between the ATC and the BATX although the projections look similar between the two systems. I wonder why that might be?
Justin Mason
10:40
That is weird. I will look into it, but it may be more of an issue with the calculator because just looking at their projections for Tellez, they are pretty identical.

Assuming Jordan Walker cracks the OD lineup and is available at 3B in your league, where would he rank among 3B men?
Justin Mason
10:42
I would have to adjust my projection to be certain, but I think he would be at least 8 if not 7! I love Walker.
Leon

Wander or gunner as a keeper
Justin Mason
10:42
For me it is Wander, but I am not a Gunnar guy.

I’m in a 12 team 40 man roster keeper league 5x5 (OPS, SVHLD), keep 20, how would you rank these OFs: Trout, Randy, Ward, TONeil?
Justin Mason
10:43
Trout, Arozarena, Ward, O'Neill
Foolsrushin63
10:43
Please rank Kwan, Nootbaar, Yoshida -- points keeper league
Justin Mason
10:43
That is the correct order
phil
10:43
keeper league 5x5 format, can you rank these guys: Flaherty, Trevor Rogers, Skubal
Justin Mason
10:44
Rogers, Flaherty, Skubal
Sam
10:44
Stott or Tovar in a 5x5 OPS keeper league?
Justin Mason
10:44
Tovar

Could you justify keeping Spencer Strider instead of Cole?
Justin Mason
10:44
I could not

Do you think Walker Buehler is easily a top 125 player in next year's draft? Have a chance to trade for him in a keeper league but probably not worth it if he's not. Thanks!
Justin Mason
10:45
Not to me. I don't draft guys coming off of TJ. That being said, you might be able to flip him as such because the market might price him there.

In real life (or in my case a strat league) will Curtis Mead be a capable enough fielder to play every day at 2b or 3b to be a legitimate regular?
Justin Mason
10:45
I don't believe his defense will be good enough there.
Guest

Hi, regarding the projections that you and Paul have been doing: I'd have thought that the live adjustments you've been doing, and their large effect would have convinced you to use a more numbers based approach rather than the more feel approach it sounds like you've been using? Are't you incorporating my bias by definition? Thanks
Justin Mason
10:48
I don't think bias is avoidable even if you use just a strictly numbers based approach. Even guys like Derek Carty tell you their biases come into play in how they develop their systems. Making and using my own projections is a way for me to be less biased and stick to what I believe, but I don't know that is possible to eliminate them completely.

Offered Rodon for my Randy + Giolito, is that reasonable in a keeper league?
Justin Mason
10:48
It is reasonable but I want the pair
JG
10:48
Any late dark horse candidates for saves in deep nfbc leagues as dart throws?
Justin Mason
10:49
Dany Jimenez, Andrew Chafin, Michael Fulmer.
Yuniesky Betancourt
10:49
Which current MLB player would do the best in a dunk contest?
Justin Mason
10:49
It has to be Byron Buxton, right? Or Amir Garrett.
Jared Walsh
10:49
What are my chances of hitting 30 bombs and 100 RBIs
Justin Mason
10:50
1%
Joey Meneses
10:50
"Joey Meneses will play 1B, LF and DH this season" news just dropped. Is he legit?
Justin Mason
10:50
I think he will get a lot of opportunities, but I don't think he is what we saw last season.
Bob
10:50
In real life (or again strat) please rank the following SP, Brayan Bello, Luis Ortiz, Chase Silseth for long term growth.
Justin Mason
10:50
Ortiz, Bello, Silseth
