That is tough because when he is right, Kim is a huge asset in average. I think I would stick with him if he is in the lineup today. If not, move JAzz to MI and run with Oliveras.

Does Maeda @CIN scare you at all?
Justin Mason
10:50
Petrifies me. I would nit use him there unless I was desperate.

Thoughts on C Sanchez and Z Thompson as cheap keepers for next season ($3 after inflation in Ottoneu)?  Can they be sub-4.00, 9 K/9 guys?
Justin Mason
10:51
I don't really believe in Thompson, but I am a believer in Sanchez. He should be locked into a rotation spot next year.

Do you have any low avg high power performers who you think have the hit tool to have a nice bump in their average?  Id love for Doyle in CO to hit .250 or Muncy to return to his old ways for example.
Justin Mason
10:53
I think Muncy is a good example. I also think Ty France and Steven Kwan should bounceback in average. Willy Adames is another that should be more of a .250 guy.

We're trying out a rookie keeper this year - how would you Rank Eury Perez, Tanner Bibee and Matt McClain? If next season is lost, would you keep either pitcher over Luis Castillo  or McClain over Jose Ramirez in anticipation of a run starting in 2025?
Justin Mason
10:54
Talked a lot about Bibee and McLain on the pod today. I am going to be really high on them, but not to the levels of a Castillo or J-Ram. I think you are hoping that they turn into those guys.

What do you make of Giolito's last start?  He looked great against Texas.  Do you start him at KC this week or stick with pitchers like Woo at OAK or Pepiot versus DET?  Thanks.
Justin Mason
10:55
I think I would go with Woo for sure. Pepiot probably too over Giolito. He is just too inconsistent.
JV

Pick 3 starters for this week.  NEED ERA and K - C. Sanchez at Atl, vs NYM; Nola at Atl; Maeda at Cin; Cease at Bos; Bradish at Hou; Bello at Tex
Justin Mason
10:55
Bradish, Nola, Sanchez
Mick

Do any of Taj Bradley's starts interest you this week?
Justin Mason
10:56
I would take his LAA start. Do not want the TOR one.

What do you see from JoJo Romero long-term?  Peripherals are tasty: 22% K-BB, 59% GB
Justin Mason
10:56
I think he is likely a middle reliever long term, but with the injury issues at the back the STL pen, he could get back into the ninth if Helsley gets hurt again.

In H2H 12 tm championship against a guy who streams an SP daily. Do I need to do the same to keep up, or go with my guys and protect ratios?
Justin Mason
10:57
Depends on your categories, but I tend to want to zag when other zig, so I would try and protect my ratios and win saves along with that.
KC Pain
10:57
Pick 2; Blackburn at home vs SEA & DET, Skubal @LAD, or Giolito @KC?
Justin Mason
10:57
Skubal and Giolito
BaltimOre's
10:57
Do you like a RP (Merryweather, Hader, or Ginkel) over Ober (@CIN), Ragans (@HOU), Abbott (vs PIT)? Looking for a 10th pitcher, no particular category. Just looking for someone that won't hurt my ratios, but provide a win/save.
Justin Mason
10:57
Give me Abbott vs PIT.
