I just dropped Cedric Mullins (.259 xwoba) for Davis Schneider (.376). Shallow-ish 12-team H2H  league, bench bat. Crazy, or crazy like a fox?
Justin Mason
10:45
I think they both will regress to the mean tbh, but I don't mind riding hot streaks. Just be ready to switch back or out for other guys
Friedl's Thumb
10:45
Is Friedls thumb injury giving you pause?  How does he rank compared to Ward and Pages?
Justin Mason
10:46
Sounds like it isn't super serious. I prefer Friedl over both Pages and Ward, but if he is going to miss time with the injury, I can understand switching out for one of them. Prefer Pages and that Dodgers offense.

Crazy to Chourio or Holliday in a keeper? One of the needs to go. I need the spot. Interest is lukewarm trade-wise.
Justin Mason
10:47
I would not drop either. I'd hate to lose one of them. Someone rebuilding has to want them from you for something.

Swap J. Means out for Manoah as a bench upside play?
Justin Mason
10:47
Nah
andy
10:48
is schneider becoming a viable bat to hold in shallower formats?
Justin Mason
10:49
The underlying contact skills on Schneider still aren't great. I have been a detractor and I don't see a ton in the profile to change my mind yet. He is running a pretty massive babip that is fueling things.

Devers plus Lodolo for Matt Olson in a 14 team redraft?
Justin Mason
10:49
I don't think you need to give up Lodolo plus Devers here. Maybe Devers and a lesser arm?

Thoughts on Walker Buehler so far? Still getting his footing or is it a long road ahead?
Justin Mason
10:51
Command is always the last thing for a TJ returner to get back. One of the reasons I was out on him this year was because he is so command reliant. I think he will be better, but you'll have to be paitent.

got offered strider for james wood and luis castillo in a keeper - i am rebuilding team w/vlad jr, devers, langford, chourio as other pieces - that’s a bad deal right?
Justin Mason
10:51
I wouldn't do that

How much is too much to spend on a haircut?
Justin Mason
10:51
I shave my own head, so I haven't paid for a haircut in a decade lol
Perks of going bald
10:52
ok, I have just a few minutes left and a ton of questions, so let's speed round this.
David Schneider
10:52
Has my longer mustache helped improve my chances of a breakout this year?
Justin Mason
10:52
Mustaches are the key to success
Phil

Follow up, Langford and Adames for JRam an ok trade offer?
Justin Mason
10:53
I think so
You're our only hope
10:53
When will we see James Wood?
Justin Mason
10:53
July

Should I still be starting Foley over Cano this week? Baltimore is a much better team but their CL sitch seems murky still
Justin Mason
10:53
If you need saves then yes
Joe adell
10:53
It looks like I have figured out how to swing at pitches in the zone more frequently, and this seems to be driving down my k rate, swinging strike rate…. Is that how you read it? how sustainable would you say that is?
Justin Mason
10:53
I think there are real skill changes here. We need to monitor them more closely because it is still small sample, but I am a buyer
Schneider stan
10:54
I love that Davis Schneider is barreling up on everything, but I really want to play Pham this week over him. If I drop Schneider will I end up regretting it?
Justin Mason
10:54
I don't think you will
Austin Hays
10:54
How useful in AL only am I when I return?
Justin Mason
10:54
Where do you play?
Alejandro Kirk
10:54
Am I toast?
Justin Mason
10:54
Not toast, but we won't see you breakout
Dave in slc
10:54
Mason black worth a shot over ross In an nl only keeper right?
Justin Mason
10:54
yeah
Bandit

In 16 team dynasty with salary escalation, we ended up with Elias Diaz, Nolan Jones, Brenton Doyle and Ryan McMahon. Is this bad process?
Justin Mason
10:55
I don't know that it is a bad process, but that is a lot of players on a bad team and some of them don't have great skills.
