What exactly do you think is wrong with Z Eflin and can he get back to last years #s (other than wins)?
Justin Mason
10:23
I think he is attacking the zone too much. His zone rate is up almost 3% which is a lot and he is way above league average in that regard. He gets people to chase and I think this is mostly a pitch mix and sequencing issue. The Rays are a smart organization so I think he will be fine.

Ty France- lost cause?
Justin Mason
10:24
I think he is mostly the guy he has always been but that is uninspiring at best.
Why not Zoidberg?
10:25
You know what would be great? If in the Sleeper and the Bust descriptions, you put timestamps where you talk about certain players/subjects.
Justin Mason
10:27
I think that is something we will try and do in the future, but because I work 80+ hours a week between multiple jobs, it isn't feasible quite yet. I have heard the critique and I understand that it is what people want, but I unfortunately just don't have the time presently to make it happen.

Do we know for sure if Ronel Blanco is getting a start this week?  Looks like he's lined up to face Oakland Sunday when his suspension is up, but I don't feel great about putting him in my lineup on the off chance he gets bumped to next week.
Justin Mason
10:28
I don't think there is any reason to think he gets bumped to next week. they are at home early in the week so there won't be any postponements and weather in the Bay Area should be great this weekend

Odds a Mets reliever other than Edwin Diaz accrues a meaningful number of saves the rest of the way?
Justin Mason
10:28
I think at worst he shares the job but he will continue to get opportunities with his contract.

im in a 14t H2H dynasty and need to make a move with Pepiot due back imminently. I was hoping the Cubs with IL Hoerner but they’re dithering and non-commital either way, it seems. I was going to drop Stephenson with Campusano as my C, but since he’s become the best C available, is it better to keep him, and let go of one of my minor leaguers who aren’t close, like Iriarte or Bleis? I feel like now is a bad time to drop with them both doing well these days.
Justin Mason
10:29
I would probably drop Stephenson

Please rank rest of the way 5x5 deep league: Grissom, Toro, Rafaela
Justin Mason
10:29
Rafaela, Grissom, Toro

Are the Reds going to give someone other than Alexis Diaz save opps going forward?  If so, who?  What a mess of a pen.
Justin Mason
10:29
I don't think so because the rest of the bullpen is bad. I think if anything they trade for someone at the deadline

I turned down Carroll and Vlad Jr for Skenes and R. Suarez. Right call?
Justin Mason
10:30
I would take Carroll and Vlad

Now that Nolan Jones is off the DL, do you like his chances of rebounding into the player he is projected to be
Justin Mason
10:30
I think he was always overprojected coming into the season, but I think he will be better than he was before the injury for sure'
Frozen Rope

More saves ros: Foley or Lange?
Justin Mason
10:30
Foley
Kate
10:31
I'm assuming we've gotta hold our collective noses and start Musgrove for the two start this week despite coming right off the IL and two not great matchups, right?
Justin Mason
10:31
I usually skip these kind of spots outside of deeper formats.
Colton

Got a waiver wire question. Nimmo, Santander, and Hoerner have all been dropped in my 14 team H2H, 7x7 categories league. Definitely gonna try snagging Hoerner for Luis Garcia, trying to figure out if I should drop Marsh and Manzardo for Nimmo and Santander? Santander does have 1b eligibility in this league as well so he'd be an option there for me.
Justin Mason
10:31
I would make all these pickups for those guys

Jose Urquidy worth a stash in a 12xMixed?
Justin Mason
10:31
Nah

how would you handle Sale's legit hot start vs recent injury history
Justin Mason
10:32
I think I am rolling with Sale as long as he is healthy. He has almost always been a great pitcher and a lot of his injuries last season where pretty weird and fluky.
Vince

Shout out to Luis Arraez for stealing a base last night! Margin of victory for me!
Justin Mason
10:32
Always nice to give shout outs to guys that help us!
BlueJayMatt
10:33
That's two good (great?) starts in a row for Manoah, are you starting him next time out vs Detroit?
Justin Mason
10:33
I think you kind of have to, but he scares the crap out of me.
Gary
10:33
Do you think Musgrove can stay consistent and injury free the rest of the season
Justin Mason
10:33
I do not
Frozen Rope
10:33
Do you think Luis Urias is better than his current.162/.338/.617?
Justin Mason
10:33
Probably not
Kate
10:33
Are the White Sox really going to make Korey Lee keep sitting half their games so he can watch Maldonado go out there "be a veteran" or something?
Justin Mason
10:33
I mean, it is the White Sox.
