Justin Mason

9:22

I am very intrigued, but I there probably will be some growing pains. I wasn't able to get him in FAAB this weekend because he was so expensive.

how does the cardinals outfield shake out? spent a 4th round pick in NL only on Tyler O Neill, but he's on the bench a lot... cut bait now?

Justin Mason

9:22

I'd hold for now. Man, I wish they would trade him.

Moneyball

Is Miles Mikolas droppable in all formats at this point?

Justin Mason

9:23

In most formats that aren't deep. I still think he will be ok, but you can grab him off the wire later if needed.

For AAA statcast data you go to the Gamefeed tab and switch the level to AAA and you'll get everything

Justin Mason

9:23

There you go!

Does calling up Brett Baty now essentially cost the Mets a year of his control, while not even having the opportunity to gain a draft pick should he finish top three in ROY voting? Could they have just waited another week or two?

Justin Mason

9:23

Can't risk falling behind with some of our best talent in AAA. He could still finish top 3 in the ROY

Mark

Any idea why a team (in this case the Rays) wait to IL a guy when it's clear they're gonna need a stint (Springs?). Going on multiple days with a short roster (both my fantasy team and the Rays)!

Justin Mason

9:24

No idea. Super frustrating.

Nick

Do you think Mason Miller's next start comes with the A's? And do you see him as a worthy stash? The back end of my pitching staff has been a series of swings and misses and am hoping to solidify things a little.

Justin Mason

9:24

I don't think it is

Can Ji Hwan Bae stop striking out and hit .250? Seems like a nice swiss army knife type off the wire, but i worry about the PT if he cant get the avg up . I need to activate Nootbaar and cant decide whether i should drop Bae or Chris Sale .

Justin Mason

9:25

I think he will be fine. He has a good hit tool. I have a hard time dropping Sale for him, but understand it at this point.

Walla Walla Ron Washington

9:25

Dynasty league: traded Gaddis and Andy Pages for Eovaldi, based on his great peripherals so far. Results gonna improve to match, you think?

Justin Mason

9:25

I think that was a great buy low

chris

spent $10 in auction in AL Only for Berrios to see if there was a bounceback in store, hammered by royals and angels but shuts down the rays. How do you feel?

Justin Mason

9:26

The underlying numbers look better than last year, but I am still scared of Berrios.

KCbbq

9:26

Burger has hit well so far. Does he stay up when Moncada returns? Sure looks like he deserves it but where would he play?

Justin Mason

9:26

I picked him up in multiple leagues. Maybe this is where he cements a role.

Chris

9:26

How much attention should I pay to Mason Miller? More than Taj Bradley?

Justin Mason

9:27

I think he is interesting, but he hasn't built up a lot of innings and it is still the A's so wins will be hard to come by. Bradley is way more interesting.

Vince

9:27

10-tm H2H cat league suffering from Ray, and now Springs injuries . Any value in Braxton Garrett, Domingo German, ERod, Falter, Strahm or Soroka (not far from return)? Senga, Morton and Jameson are my backend SPs.

Justin Mason

9:28

I prefer both Garrett and Eduardo Rodriguez to Jameson.

KCbbq

9:28

Small sample aside what do you make of Rooker's fast start? I thought I read he was a first round pick by the Twins. Wondering if he has staying power, then again he's playing on a lousy team.

Justin Mason

9:29

He has mostly been a short side platoon guy and while he is hitting righties right now, he has a pretty high BABIP against them right now. HE will cool down, but he could play a lot since they don't have a lot else.

Tanner Bibee

9:30

Am I the real deal? unhittable in AAA. Do you anticipate a callup, not currently on 40 man however.

Justin Mason

9:31

I think he could be really good, but I just don't know that the Guardians want to start his clock yet.

KCbbq

9:31

Thoughts on what to expect when Montas returns. Shoulder issue too sketchy to warrant picking up via FAAB?

Justin Mason

9:31

I would stay away unless I had unlimited IL.

HappyFunBall

2xCatcher league, Smith out for a week at least. Grab Bethancourt, Gomes, or Nola? Or sit with a zero until he's back? I'm leaning towards the zero...

Justin Mason

9:31

I think I go Bethancourt.

Bill

9:31

Do you think L Garcia (HOU) will turn it around? He was dropped in 15 team mixed.

Justin Mason

9:32

I think he has to be better than this. The underlying numbers are not good though... He should be rostered in a 15 teamer

Kingpin

9:32

Have to sit one this week in standard 5x5 NL-only - Taillon in 2nd straight start vs. LAD, Elder vs. Hou, or Ryne Nelson vs. SD. Leaning to benching Elder. You agree?

Justin Mason

9:32

Elder for sure

9:32

Are you buying or selling the hot starts from Sonny Gray and Justin Steele?

Justin Mason

9:33

I am buying Steele more than Gray. I am definitely regretting not drafting him much

GBS42

9:33

Justin, which one of these hitters would you bench, with the others all starting: Tyler O'Neill, Brett Baty, Jeimer Candelario, Lane Thomas
