It is kind of crazy the turn around for Duran. He is making elite zone contact and hitting the ball hard. Definitely is getting lucky in the BABIP department, but I think he could hit like .270 rest of the way with power and speed. If someone is selling high, I don't mind buying.

With Japan winning the WBC, and Masataka Yoshida adapting quickly to MLB pitching, do you foresee more Japanese players signing to MLB teams in the next 5-10 years? And do you think the price for NPB players will rise?
Justin Mason
10:34
I don't think a ton changes in terms of that because Japanese ball clubs get these long term contracts that lock their players up over there.

Hi Justin, have a bit of a roster crunch, and have to drop one, how would you rank the following? Lodolo, detmers senga? Thanks
Justin Mason
10:34
Senga
as the drop

What do you make of Joey Wiemer?  He's struggling a bit, but in the complete opposite way I thought he would.
Justin Mason
10:36
Kind of who he is. There is pop and speed there, but the contact issues are preventing him from unlocking a lot of the power. Also weirdly hitting a lot on the ground.

Matt Chapman has been ridiculous so far. Would you be looking to hold or trade? If you were to trade, what would you be looking to get back?
Justin Mason
10:38
I think I would want a top 50 player if I moved him. I probably would just hold until I saw a skill change, but right now, I love what I see.

If I have Wander Boy, T. Turner, and Bryce Harper competing for two slots in my lineup, should I try and shop Turner? Or just enjoy my really high end streaming game?
Justin Mason
10:38
Depends on what you could get to be honest. Might want to hold if you can't get a king's ransom because one of them is bound to get hurt at some point.

Jon Gray's starts have been less than good. More walks than Ks and barely any of the latter lately. Hiding an injury? Any concerns?
Justin Mason
10:39
I definitely think he is injured.
Talked about it with Paul on the Friday episode of the pod.

Is Gunnar Henderson at a great keeper price for Logan Webb who is not keepable a fair deal?
Justin Mason
10:39
I think it is fair.

Are you two starting Nola (@Col, v Tor) and/or Varland (v ChC/ SD) over any single start Burnes v KC, Bieber v Det, Bryce M @ Det, Eduardo @ Cle and Urias v SD?
Justin Mason
10:40
That is tough because I am almost always in the start your studs camp. I think I might sit both though with your options.

Is Jose Abreu droppable in a 16 teamer?
Justin Mason
10:41
Yes. I don't know that I could, but I think it is in the conversation at this point.

Aaron Judge's high K-rate is a bit concerning. Would you try to trade him now? What should one expect to get back in a 12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league?
Justin Mason
10:41
I would if I got close to draft day value.
Philip

george springer is still good at baseball, right? this start has been BRUTAL
Justin Mason
10:42
Just wrote him up as a buy low for my fantasy pros article. He will be fine.
Honestly, I think he could have a massive rest of the season. On top of the skills being fine, he is running at a pace we have never seen from him.

Dynasty OBP league with no pitcher wins- crazy to trade Torkelson for a young controllable SP (Pfaadt, Allen, Bibee, etc.)?
Justin Mason
10:43
I don't think it crazy. I traded him in a dynasty league for Nathaniel Lowe prior to the season. If I could get Bibee for him, I am ok with doing that.
Gallo's Poll
10:43
Seems like Gallo has turned back into a pumpkin. .139 in the last 2 weeks...ugh. Droppable in 12 teamers??
Justin Mason
10:43
Yup
JAWS

I have never owned Schwarber before and this year he is on two of my teams, both H2H. Is it always like this?
Justin Mason
10:44
Yes, he goes through huge ups and downs. He will be fine.

Is Soroka a worthy IL stash?
Justin Mason
10:45
Probably not
Dynasty trade
10:45
Bryce miller and tiedemann for Jackson chuorio. Which side we on?
Justin Mason
10:45
Chourio
Guest

For dynasty leagues approximately where would you have Bibee and Bryce Miller ranked?
Justin Mason
10:45
Bibee would be in my top 30-40 SPs. Miller probably 60-70
Philip

if you're in need of avg in a h2h ops league, would you still scoop adames over lemahieu?
Justin Mason
10:45
Yes
