Chat will begin at the top of the hour as long as we have enough questions. In the meantime, please follow me on all my social media’s (twitter, tiktok, facebook, youtube, and instagram) at JustinMasonFWFB! I am doing regular podcasts on the FWFB podcast as well as three episodes a week for the Sleeper and the Bust so definitely make sure you are subscribed there as well!

Please don't ask the same questions over and over. I will get to as many as I can. Make sure you include format and size of league.

Would you rather start Freddy Peralta vs DET or 2x start Bradish vs BOS,@Det?

Justin Mason

10:02

I think I lean Bradish here, but depends on how risky I wanted to play it. Bradish could get smoked vs BOS

Punk in Drublic

10:02

In NL Only, who do you like out of Vince Velasquez, Joey Lucchesi, Tommy Henry and Jeremiah Estrada for the next month or so?

Justin Mason

10:03

I think I lean Estrada here because he has the stuff to close in Chicago.

Would you swap Mountcastle for Abreu in a shallow h2h ops league? trying to be patient with abreu given the sss but his power seems gone btw last year and this year. without a BA bump like last year, he isnt adding much value

Justin Mason

10:04

Yes, I would. I am worried about Abreu

How does the log jam at AAA for starters play out? Soroka, Elder, Dodd, Shuster the correct order?

Justin Mason

10:04

I think that is the right order

Rick

10:04

how would you rank haniger, soler and nootbar in a h2h ops league?

Justin Mason

10:04

Soler, Nootbaar, Haniger

Ned

Whadaya think about Stone Garrett in DC? Maybe 15-20 HRs ROS? Maybe more? 🙂

Justin Mason

10:05

It all depends on whether or not he can maintain the improved contact. If he can, he could definitely hit 20+ rest of the way.

Hey Justin, what do you think about dropping Brady Singer for Matt Strahm…near and long term.
I’m in a partial keeper league, and I have singer for six dollars which is a really good deal, but I can pick Strom up off the waiver wire for a bike.

Justin Mason

10:06

I am a bit stubborn on the guys I like so I am not ready to give up on Singer yet. Strahm was great in his last outing, but I worry about his role long term.

Justin, with Andrew Abbott being promoted to AAA and ostensibly being near a call up to the Reds I was curious to know your thoughts on him. How do you project him out for this season and what do you see as his ceiling? Thanks!

Justin Mason

10:07

I am not going to pretend I know much of anything about him. The numbers look great but the scouting scores are kind of meh.

Patrick

10:07

Are you stashing any of these guys right now: Liberatore, Bibee, Stone, Tiedemann?

Justin Mason

10:08

I am stashing Bibbee and Stone right now. Tiedmann is really enticing but I don't know when he will be up.

Chucky

10:08

Aaron Nola no longer strikes me as that *set and forget* kind of pitcher/player. Are you starting him @ Houston over the likes of Jon Gray @ Cincinnati, Wesneski v SD or Luis Garcia @ TB?

Justin Mason

10:08

Yeah, I am still rolling with him.

The Batman

10:09

In a Saves/Holds league, would you rather bet on talent like Aroldis or Bard who aren't putting up S/H, or go with guys actually producing S/H right now but aren't as electric like Erik Swanson?

Justin Mason

10:09

I think I would rather bet on Chapman or Bard

Alex

10:10

What's the outlook at this point on Miguel Vargas? Does he need to be dropped?

Justin Mason

10:10

I am not worried about Vargas. His xBA is fine. Might need to become a bit more aggressive but I think he will be fine.

Jack

10:10

Rank ROS please in roto 6x6 (wins and qs). Logan Allen, mason Miller, taj Bradley

Justin Mason

10:11

Bradley, Allen, Miller

Rick

10:11

do you think jon gray will be okay assuming he stays healthy and cuts down on the walks? hes never seemed to have major control issues in the past so hoping this will pass

Justin Mason

10:12

I think if he is healthy, he will be ok, but health can be an issue with Gray. I wonder if there is an injury there already.

Babo

10:12

Im in a points league with a big weighting on QS, which group of starts do you think will do better this week:

A) Alex Cobb vs STL , Mitch Keller vs LAD, Eovaldi vs NYY

B) Nestor Cortes @ Tex , Cobb at SD

Justin Mason

10:12

Cortes side

12-team mixed 5x5 keeper. My pitching has been awful, and I've lost Woodruff for who knows how long. Got offered an $8 Pablo Lopez for a $11 Jazz Chisolm. Would prob cost me some points in SB and my backup options at 2B are LeMahieu and I. Paredes, but Chisolm's K% has exploded and his batted ball profile looks atrocious (all of which means he'll probably explode the minute I trade him). Should I pull the trigger?

Justin Mason

10:13

I don't have an issue with this deal. If I needed the pitching, I'd do it.

Chris

10:13

Suzuki, hays and Greene ROS in a redraft 5x5 league?

Justin Mason

10:13

Suzuki, Green, Hays

Jack

10:13

What are you doing with Maeda? He is so unlucky right now and we can’t seem to make heads or tails on if he is worth a roster spot. AL only. Logan Allen and griffin canning are available in my league.

Justin Mason

10:14

I would rather have Allen or Canning

ober

10:16

are they really going to send down?

Justin Mason

10:16

Unless there is an injury that we haven't heard about yet. Maeda?
