Can anyone realistically in the NLC make a mo e now that puts them as the division preseason leader? Cubs/Bellinger or Chapman? Cards/Montgomery? Or or there no moves to make to move the needle that much?
Justin Mason
11:01
I think that it is a competitive division no matter where these last pieces go.

14 team 1 C dynasty league with Hits as extra category and OBP instead of Ave.  Rank these C Willson Contreras, Keibert Ruiz, Gabriel Moreno and Yainer Diaz.
Justin Mason
11:01
Diaz, Contreras, Ruiz, Montero

Was the Giants trade of Stripling a big vote of confidence to Harrison and Winn - or more of a clearing of room for eventual Cobb and Ray returns?  Also, if they don't sign Snell, can you see them adding a secondary guy like Clevinger that'll damper Harrison/Winn?
Justin Mason
11:02
I honestly don't really know. I think moving stripling was a mistake. I was hoping it was going to signal a signing of Snell or Montgomery but probably not. I like Winn as a deep sleeper this year but I don't know what they do with the rest.
They clearly are committed to Harrison being in the rotation though

When is prospect week?
Justin Mason

No idea

Industry seems pretty split on Grayson v Bobby Miller for THIS year.  My question is in a keep forever league.... Throwing Eury Perez's name into the mix, how do you rank each of these guys for the LONG TERM?
Justin Mason
11:03
I think this is very close but for me, Grayson, Miller, Eury

Any chance the Brewers are in on Matt Chapman to take over at 3B, moving Ortiz into a time share with Turang at 2b - until Adames gets moved by the trade deadline if they aren't in contention?
Justin Mason
11:04
No chance they spend that kind of money.

Auction. $260 budget. 15 team Mixed Points League. 11 starters on offense (1 per position, 2 UTs). 9 pitchers (5 SPs, 4 RPs). $5 minimum salary   Should I keep Nathaniel Lowe at $10?  My instinct is no; the auction calculator says yes.
Justin Mason
11:04
Probably not.

The hype on Bobby Miller is huge. Are you buying and if so why?
Justin Mason
11:04
He has a good body, and great stuff. Could lead the best team in baseball in innings.
Jeff!

Was reading another site's prospect rundown and they were gushing over Kyle Harrison. For prospects I typically trust Fangraphs and a different publication that have been more tepid on Harrison. What are your expectations for him in 2024?
Justin Mason
11:05
I expect a lot of ups and downs. The command and control will be hit or miss
Dodgers Blue

What are you hearing the Giants want/expect to get from a Joey Bart trade?
Justin Mason
11:05
A bag of balls?

10tm 5x5+OBP+SLG keeper league - who do you prefer (both can be kept for 2 years after this year) Vinny P or Josh Naylor?
Justin Mason
11:05
Vinny P
Abrams
11:06
Abrams is an answer to a question on keeping him vs Chourio
Scotty G
11:06
Keeper question: 16 team OBP league, keep 6 forever. I'm already keeping Tatis, Lindor, Gunnar, Freddy Peralta, Skubal. For my last keeper, should I keep CJ Abrams or Chourio?
Justin Mason
11:06
There it is lol

Will Reese Olson be a league average starter this year?
Justin Mason
11:06
I think he is probably around there or a little below
N
11:06
Will Lucas Giolito provide any fantasy value this season?

Is there too much helium with Nolan Jones this year? His K rate and BABIP have me concerned that his floor is fairly low.
Justin Mason
11:07
I completely agree. I think there is massive bust potentially at the price

In a 2 catcher league, who you going with if available, Jonah Heim, Cal Raleigh, Rutschman, or Langeliers?  Thanks
Justin Mason
11:07
Rutschman and Heim
Mullins
11:07
Mullins gonna bounce back, right? Healthy?
Justin Mason
11:08
I don't know how much. He struggles vs lefties and the Orioles are loaded
Last Keeper
11:08
AL only OBP: $10 Woo or $12 Jaren Durran? (or neither). Thanks!
Justin Mason
11:08
Durran
Big Money Keepers
11:08
I traded a lot of keepers to win and don't have many hot tickets. Would you rather just keep fewer people and have empty space on the roster or keep a high-priced but maybe at cost star (Luis Robert $30 or Devers $36, AL only OBP are the specifics)? Thanks!
Justin Mason
11:08
Give me the guys at cost.
