Keepers
10:49
Do you aggregate projection systems or tend to rely on one when deciding keepers or ranks? If one, which one?
Justin Mason
10:49
So I do my own projections, but if I didn't I would use ATC for pitching and The BATX for hitting
Jim
10:50
Grayson, Bobby Miller, Skubal
please rank for this season
Justin Mason
10:50
Skubal, Grayson, Miller but it is really close.
cool 1

Marco Luciano going to hold that SF short stop job all year?
Justin Mason
10:50
Probably not but they are going to give him a chance to
Birdland

How many Orioles batters reach 600 PA?  Love the lineup, but kinda worried that everyone outside of Adley/Gunnar is gonna sit 15-20% of the time
Justin Mason
10:51
I think Adley, Gunnar, Santander, Mullins all could. Maybe even Holliday if he is up Day 1.
Donald

When choosing between 2 keepers (12-team, keep 10, 30-man rosters), ignoring other options would you rather have the better overall player or the guy that delivers the most value?

(Ex.  Gausman in Round 2 or Sonny Gray in Rd 12?)
Justin Mason
10:51
The guy that delivers the most value
Bryce
10:52
Do you think Harper will be the first baseman for the same tier as Freeman and Olsen in 2024? Healthy, he may be the 1st of them.
Justin Mason
10:52
I do. I think if healthy, he could easily be the top 1B
kurt

auction price for schaunelin ba vs obp league
Justin Mason
10:53
Run it through the auction calculator for your league size https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy-tools/auction-calculator
Points
10:53
Michael Harris would cost me an 8th rounder while kwan is a 5th.  Shallowish points league.  Kwan has been 8th ranked OF in 2022 and 2023 in our league for reference.
Justin Mason
10:53
This is why it is important to run points leagues  through software. Go Kwan if this is what it tells you.

What do you make of all these guys - like Bryce Miller - working on adding a split this off season?  Does it slightly elevate on of them in your rankings?
Justin Mason
10:54
I was already higher on Miller than a lot of people. Love to see he is adding a split this season.
Dodgers Blue
10:54
Zach Neto or Anthony Volpe?  AVG, OBP, SBs, HRs and Runs all categories.  Better option?
Justin Mason
10:54
Volpe
Mark

Christian Walker a keeper at $11 in an 12 team OBP league? Alternatives would be Jarren Duran $4, Brendan Donovan $7, or Eovaldi $11
Justin Mason
10:54
Yes
Mike
10:55
30 team dynasty league with FA bidding and $150 salary cap… How do you rate these SP’s considering price point: Maeda ($20), Lugo ($18), Hicks ($14), Mahle ($9)
Justin Mason
10:56
Lugo, Maeda, Hicks, Mahle
Dodgers Blue
10:56
Follow up on Bryce Miller - you like ahead of Pfaadt?  And...how are you shaking out the Guardian staff - Williams, Allen, Triston....
Justin Mason
10:56
I prefer Miller to Pfaadt, but I do like both.
10:57
I am drafting a lot of Bibee this year, but I am starting to come around on Allen at this price. I like Williams' upside but he has control and command issues. McKenzie is a decent gamble in a shallow league
Dan
10:57
Do you have any ideas on the probability of Langford making an opening day roster? I think if he breaks the camp, he can easily get within 100 adp.
Justin Mason
10:57
I think there is a 60/40 chance he does.
HE will be up early even if he doesn't though.
Dave
10:57
12-team NL only.  Who are you keeping between $4 Arcia & $5 Berti as the last keeper? Or would you keep both over $2 Vientos
Justin Mason
10:57
Arcia
Dodgers Blue
10:58
Royals keep adding bullpen arms.  In a combo Saves/Holds league, who am I to take stock in?
Justin Mason
10:58
Will Smith and McArthur

rank in order of 2024 plate appearances: Holliday, Langford, Chourio, Caminero
Justin Mason

Holliday, Landford, Chourio, Caminero
Pete

In a 15 team standard roto where are you comfortable taking your 1st starter and how many starters do you generally take through 1st 10 RDs?
Justin Mason
10:59
I am comfortable taking my first early, even first round depending on where I am drafting from. I usually like to have 3-4 starters through 10 rounds.
Guest

do you play any H2H leagues, and if so do you still shoot for a balanced roster or do you ever zag on the draft/auction and try something weird?
