I don't think he makes the team out of spring. The hype may have been a bit premature.

On a scale of 1 to Cedric Mullins, how handsome are you?
Justin Mason
10:49
I'm about a Brandon Marsh on that scale

my last keepers decision to make: OBP 5x5, 10 team, $260 cap - do you think it is worth taking the cost savings of Bregman at $24 keeper vs. J-Ram $47 keeper if I've got steals covered by Mullins, Lindor, J-Rod? Thank you! Would use that money to up my budget on 1B and SP
Justin Mason
10:50
I think I take the savings on Bregman there

In a H2H last year of a keeper league, which three would would you keep as my final keepers. Salvador Perez (round 12), Byron Buxton (round 11), Camilo Doval (Round 22), Andrew Vaughn (round 24), Cronenworth (round 19)? Other keepers are Rodon, Musgrove and Mullins.
Justin Mason
10:51
Vaughn, Doval are two. In a 1 catcher league I go Buxton and in a two catcher league I go Perez

7x7 Roto (Standard plus Total Bases, OBP, Holds, K/9), 2 Keepers: Goldy, Trea Turner, Witt, Woodruff, Urias?  I'm leaning Turner/Witt or Turner/Woodruff...
Justin Mason
10:52
Turner and Witt
Actually Turner and Woodruff
man thats tough
Jimmy

Which late outfielder do you like most for RBIs? Friedl, Duvall, Stowers, or M. Carpenter (if he can sneak in OF eligibility)?
Justin Mason
10:53
For RBIs? I guess Duvall
Chip

Is Nathaniel Lowe good enough to be my starting 1B in a 12-team H2H league? It's a 6x6 league, OBP and SLG, no Avg.
Justin Mason
10:53
Absolutely

5x5 Auction league with 5 OF plus 1 Utility.  Right now my final two spots are covered by 2 of the following 3 players - Seth Brown ($6), Jake Fraley ($1) and Trey Mancini ($1). I’m a little worried about whether Brown and Fraley will get platooned and I’m deep in pitching.  Should I move a player like Justin Steele  or Maeda (both at $1) for someone like Benintendi ($2) or sit tight?
Justin Mason
10:53
I would definitely move one for Beni.

I see buzz / optimism on Nick Martinez but I look at his numbers and cannot connect the dots. Your thoughts on him for this season?
Justin Mason
10:54
I think he is fine for a deeper league, but I am not seeing a breakout.

Last protect in NL 5x5, Adames, Tovar, or India?
Justin Mason

Adames

I sense quite a bit of pessimism around Bailey Falter’s potential, specifically for this upcoming season in the Phillies rotation. I am not entirely sure why that is the case. He finished the season on a nice run, especially over the last 9 appearances… including only 2 outings of more than 2 ER over that stretch. Over his last 9 GS, he had a 3.00 ERA and 3.74 FIP, 15 ER in 45 IP and only 6 HR allowed. His WHIP went up, his HR9 went down. And, his numbers were also suppressed by 4 outings out of the pen, in which he gave up 4 ER in 7 IP. As a starter, his season ERA was 3.76 in 16 GS. What am I missing here? Why isn’t there more excitement over a 25 year old that is in the Opening Day starting rotation for a team that is amongst the favorites to win the NL?
Justin Mason
10:55
Because he had an easy schedule and there was a lot of fear of him losing his spot to Painter. With Painter hurt the risk has lessened but the skills are still scary. He gives up a lot of contact and has a homer issue. He got lucky last year.

Matz, Manaea, Thor… Who do you buy the most?
Justin Mason
10:55
Manaea

Does Julien get a real run with the Twins this year? Everyone at camp raved about his bat before he left for WBC and if he does, is he worth a late round shot for the upside?
Justin Mason
10:56
I don't know that there is a ton of upside unless you are in an OBP or points league with points for walks. He is the most passive hitter I have ever seen.

Any thoughts on SFG corner PT split?  Villar, Davis, Flores, Wade...Does anyone get 500 PA?
Justin Mason
10:56
I do not think anyone gets 500. If one does, it is Flored.
Flores

Keep Nestor or J Springs?
5x5 roto.
Justin Mason

Nestor

It seems like Tommy Edman is getting no love despite a solid 2022 season. What gives?
Justin Mason
10:57
I think there are fears he hits towards the bottom of the lineup. I think there is a good chance that happens but I still think he gets his steals.

Michael Harris or Corbin Carroll in a keeper, categories league?
Justin Mason
10:57
Carroll

Michael Harris or Corbin Carroll in a dynasty format?

Thoughts on these 4 to start my 14 team Roto draft - Vlad, Riley, Albies, and Springer?
Justin Mason

Love that start!
