I am less enthused by Eloy because of his constant injury issues. I don't think there is a talent issue though.

Shortstops Maysn Winn or Tovar career stats going forward. Who's better.
Justin Mason

Winn

Any potential callups to keep an eye out for if I need AVG & RBI?
Justin Mason
10:25
Manzardo, Mayo, maybe even Jackson Holliday could debut. Pete Crow Armstrong and Jordan Lawlar are also names that might appear. Hard to know what teams will do in terms of prospects. I really like Parker Meadows for fantasy and he is being called up today.

How would you treat Pena and Melendez
Justin Mason
10:26
I would wine and dine them before long walks on the beach. Don't know if this is what you were asking

What's wrong with me?
Justin Mason
10:26
I think you have a bad body which makes it difficult to repeat your mechanics.

What happened to me, errr, I mean Severino this season? Asking for a friend :D
Justin Mason
10:27
I honestly don't know. I have always loved severino and only didn't draft him because I got sniped in every league. Just seems crazy that he has fallen apart.

How would you treat Pena and Melendez's seasonal slumps in a keeper league with their salaries increasing by double this season? Should their be faith in their improvement?
Justin Mason
10:28
I am a bigger believer in Melendez moving forward. Pena was a guy I was pretty tepid on coming into the season as I didn't see a high ceiling that others did. I think he can rebound, but you should be able to get him back for a better price in draft.

Dynasty League: Elly has a massive strikeout rate, but is clearly dynamic. Are you buying or selling him as a dynasty asset? If you're selling, what's the asking price?
Justin Mason
10:29
I would hold unless I got a monster price. I would want a top 10 asset plus something if I moved him.

I like Morel's position versatility, but he's been striking out a lot lately. Someone dropped Story. Pick up and drop Morel?
Justin Mason
10:29
I am ok with that.

Any opinions on Nolan Jones, Happ, Pham or Kepler ROS?
Justin Mason
10:32
While I dislike him as a person, Pham has been really good and playing a lot in Arizona. Happ just can't seem to get it together unfortunately. I like Kepler as a guy that is quietly putting together a really nice second half and he is probably my favorite out of the bunch if I don't need SBs.

I am out of it for this year and making trades. Any SP you would chase for big improvements next year?

AL-Keeper 10 tm auction. Should I sell high on C.Seager at $32?  I'm worried if this is his career mark, what do you think?
Justin Mason
10:33
I think it is all about health for Seager. I don't think the skills are regressing in the near future. If he stays healthy, he is an elite bat.

Any concern with Sale's velo dropping down to 91.5ish mph in his last start? The lack of control seems to me he may still be dealing with his shoulder issue. Both he and the Sox say they aren't worried, but shouldn't they be concerned?
Justin Mason
10:35
I think if it continues to be an issue, he could hit the IL again. They are still competing, so  they may let him pitch through it if he says he's ok. I am keeping an eye on it for his next start
KCbbq

What's up with Chapman's offensive nosedive since the AS break? Mechanical?
Justin Mason
10:37
I think it is natural regression off of his fast start. He has just kind of reverted back to the player he has been the last few seasons.

Is nelson Velazquez half the player he has been the last 60 PA?
Justin Mason
10:38
I think he could be half of it lol. He is just really hot right now and has opportunity, but the skills don't show any real improvement.

Any concerns with keeping Silseth and/or Hunter Brown active in my 12 team AL only H2H league as I head into the playoffs in a couple weeks?
Justin Mason
10:39
I would be very nervous about Brown having a job in the rotation in a couple weeks. He has been really awful.
Guest

Looking at picking up long/bulk reliever, Stram, Avila, Holton Pivetta, Yarbrough or Whitlock
Justin Mason

Pivetta

I really want L.Butler in my keeper al-league however, I'm also moving up the standings with a shot to take the win; I still need to overtake SB and HR, and hold BA. I'm split on whom I should to drop today, between Benintendi and Renfroe which would you choose.  Or am I being irrational on Butler?
Justin Mason
10:39
I don't mind taking the gamble on him but Renfroe is safer.

Have Torkelson for $1 in my 12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league. I realize it's super earlier but based on what we've seen so far this season would you extend him? Extensions are $5/yr for a max of 3 years. And how many years would you extend?
Justin Mason
10:40
I have a policy of never extending guys unless I think they are elite talents for fantasy which I don't think Tork is necessarily. Save the money and add more talent around him.

5x5 with QS league. Do you prefer Nola (SF, STL) or Rodon (WAS, @TB) for a double this week?
Justin Mason
10:40
Nola

H2H keeper.  Wander is taking up a bench spot. As the investigation drags on, how long should I hold on?  I could replace him with Josh Jung or Jackson Holliday as a keeper next season,  but it woul
