bellingers Ks have been on the up the past few weeks. at what point do you sell high? or do you see him maintaining usefulness in shallow leagues outside of SB
Justin Mason
10:56
I think he might be a sell high right now.

Was it stupid for the D-Backs to send Drey Jameson back down to AAA?  I take it they sent him down to get stretched out and work on a couple of things, but that pitching environment (Reno / PCL) is a real mind-Fer.  Is there a way they could have done this in the majors to avoid having to expose him to that again?
Justin Mason
10:57
I don't think it was stupid. He wasn't pitching well enough and they want to win.n

I'm in an all-MLB league with pretty traditional stats and 2 2B slots.  My current second basemen, Ryan McMahon and Andres Gimenez, are--to put it politely--underachieving.  The best guys on the waiver wire are Adam Frazier, Taylor Walls, Luis Garcia, Josh Rojas, and Wilmer Flores (and guys of that ilk).  Do I just ride this one out and hope for a return to the mean?  Or make a shift now?
Justin Mason
10:57
I don't mind dropping McMahon for Rojas
Kate

What do you make of JP Sears' splits?  He's mostly fastball / slider, but is really struggling against lefties.
Justin Mason
10:58
I really like the base skills, but there will be hiccups and the A's are really bad so 0 support.

Thoughts on Gimenez? Been a rough start, what kind of return could you ask for him? Top 100 player? 125?150?
Justin Mason
10:58
Try 150 and see what happens.

Good afternoon Mr Mason!!! Need 2, Points league with 6 points for Win and QS and -6 for loss, start H Brown or Buber or Javier or Valdez?
Justin Mason
10:59
Valdez and Brown
Tomas
10:59
do you anticipate Gunnar Henderson turning it around?
Justin Mason
10:59
Not completely. I was concerned with the platoon issues coming in and now he is struggling versus righties too.
Kate

How many games before you start getting concerned about underlying plate discipline metrics like contact rate?  Jazz Chisholm for example running a 62% contact rate so far.
Justin Mason
11:00
This is the problem with high risk/high reward guys. Got to brave through the bad times. He will get hot at some point.

Justin please help! I can't decide between starting Gerrit Cole or Jose Suarez this week!
Justin Mason
11:00
2 points awarded.
Pfaady Two
11:00
You starting Pfaadt in either start this week?  for a QS points league
Justin Mason
11:01
Yes, but I am scared.
Guest

Jon Berti or Javy Báez?
Justin Mason
11:01
Baez, but gross choices
Kyle
11:01
Is Patrick Sandoval a cut for Logan Allen or Matt Strahm?
Justin Mason
11:01
for Allen, yes
Dust 11

Perdomo or Maikel Garcia in OBP? Perdomo feels like a mirage, the batted ball data is pretty bad but he at least gets a boost in OBP and points formats.
Justin Mason
11:01
Garcia
Sell-bee
11:01
Bibee's plate discipline is carried by his called-strike% and when the "cheat sheet" is out on him, I think he doesn't have the swing and miss yet to stay above water. Should I be being on Lynn or Sale with Bibee?
Justin Mason
11:01
I am not pushing him over sale or lynn yet, but it is close
Peter
11:02
Cut two but assume that you wouldn't be able to get them back cause another team would claim them: Abreu, Drury, Wisdom, Bell. Who could you live without ROS? (roto)
Justin Mason
11:02
Wisdom and Abreu

Talk me out of picking up Reynaldo López. Sub 4 xFIP and SIERA! Pumping 100! Likely still the closer! Maybe the bad results were due to the biceps injury he seems to have overcome.
Justin Mason
11:02
STOP!
Corbin Burnes
11:02
What happened to my gaudy strikeout numbers?
Justin Mason
11:02
I think he might be hurt
A.
11:02
Can you rank winchowski, Strahm, and Honeywell as sp options who might get holds and saves?
Justin Mason
11:02
I think that is the order
Oh Lourdes
11:02
Is he legit? His season slash is buoyed by his outright dominant past week. Have to think he’ll be playing every day for the next few weeks
Justin Mason
11:03
The skills are really nice. Making great zone contact. I might be interested in buying but the upside is a bit capped.
Tim

In a shallow, H2H category, with 5+H,BB,K, who do you like best for the week to stream:  Ketel Marte, Wade Jr, Andrew Vaughn?
