Abrams, Langford, Yamamoto, Crews, Skenes

Hi Justin, thanks for the chat! NL-only, finalizing my cut-off keepers. Keep 2 of: MacKenzie Gore, Sal Frelick, Michael Busch, Jonathan India, Jose Quintana.
Justin Mason

Frelick and Busch

Okay ... hear me out- who says no : Tigers trade Jace Jung to the Red Sox for Trevor Story and Marcello Mayer. Once Mayer is ready to come up, Tigers roll with Tork, Keith, Mayer, and Story/Baez at 3B. Loser of the 3B sweepstakes becomes a very expensive Util player until their contract is up
Justin Mason

No way the Tigers do this lol

With the Jung Hoo Lee signing in SF, what is your take on Luis Matos' long-term outlook?  His bat wouldn't seem to profile in a corner outfield position as well as it did in CF.  Does he have a future in SF, or more likely the headliner of a trade to come?
Justin Mason
10:42
I think this is another example of the Giants really not knowing who they are. Matos is an interesting player and they need to see what they have in him and I don't think he has a ton of trade value. I think he probably toils in AAA or is a fourth outfielder for when one of their injury prone guys gets hurt.

Keith starts the year at 2b for the Tigers now that he's signed this contract, yeah? Also, him and Jung flipping positions is odd to me.
Justin Mason
10:43
I don't think Keith can play up the middle. I don't know how long he can even play third. I think he starts at 3B this year and at some point is a DH/1B
Frank

There's gotta be a *slim* chance Ohtani has an even higher gear as a hitter if he takes a whole year off from pitching, right?
Justin Mason
10:43
Sure! Won't need a ton of days off  just DHing.

Looking to trade away Jose Ramirez in a 12 team roto for a young possible ace SP...been offered G Rodriguez or B Miller(LAD)  QS league...which one should i take?
Justin Mason
10:44
Grayson Rodriguez
Opilio

Roto Roster shows Shane Baz opening the year in AAA.  Is he likely to see a starting role by mid-season with the Rays?
Justin Mason
10:44
I think he will once he is built up.
JoeG
10:44
Evan Carter or Jordan Walker ? 12 Team roto
Justin Mason
10:44
Walker
cool 1

How are you going into drafts ranking guys like Jordan Hicks, Garrett Crochet, Mason Miller and Keaton Winn - types that could see time both as starters and relievers?  Of the four, any one stand out above the others for you?
Justin Mason
10:45
I think Winn is my favorite because we have seen him throw innings regularly. There is a ton of upside on Miller and Hicks, but I just don't trust that they can throw 5-6 innings 30 times in a season.
Colton
10:46
Ever thought about posting your exact projections each year somewhere the way Dan and Derek do?
Justin Mason
10:46
I am not as good as them lol
That being said, I make them available for our patreon people
Rodney
10:46
Dynasty keeper. Carlos Rodon or Andrew Abbott? Who do you go with for the next five years?
Justin Mason
10:46
Rodon
JoeG
10:46
Andrew Abbott or B.Pfaadt as a late sleeper ? Or both ? 12T Roto
Justin Mason
10:46
Pfaadt

Despite your possible bias would you put SD ahead of SF in the West and both behind LA and AZ?
Justin Mason
10:47
I have SF fourth in the division right now behind everyone but Colorado.
Dodgers Blue
10:47
Can you speculate on which teams might be looking at the second-tier pitching options that remain out there:  Clevinger, Lorenzen type guys?
Justin Mason
10:48
Baltimore, Yankees, Brewers, Mets, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Washington
Dodgers Blue
10:48
Are you buying/selling Henry Davis as the future long-term catching option in Pittsburgh?
Justin Mason
10:49
I think I am buying
TBD

Is Paxton now worth $1, and how does Paxton shake up the Dodgers' starting rotation?
Justin Mason
10:49
I think he just gives them the depth they need to run the six man rotation and cover injuries that happen. It was a smart move by them.

Hi Justin, first time long time. In a h2h standard scoring league, who would you keep as your 5th: Story, Bogaerts, Glasnow, Webb, or Skubal? Other 4 keepers are Carroll, Lubob, Vlad, and Mullins if that helps
Justin Mason
10:49
Skubal
10:50
I would probably keep Glasnow over Mullins too as much as that pains me.
