Mike

Are you starting Cole without knowing if he is pitching (and with and pitch count limit)?

Justin Mason

10:02

Probably only in deeper formats where you don't have a ton of options. Like I am starting him in a 15-team league where it is between him and Trevor Rogers, but in a shallower league I would probably not do it.

Mike

10:02

Do you trust Buehler or Miller

Justin Mason

10:03

I trust Miller, but not Buehler so much right now. Guys coming off of Tommy John often struggle with command and he definitely is right now.

Mike

10:03

Do you trust Buehler or Miller more at Coors or just go with an RP?

Justin Mason

10:03

I would go Miller

Mike

10:03

Stanek or Green for a saves stash?

Justin Mason

10:03

Stanek for me

Guest

Looking to upgrade my offense, is a package of Yordan and Crochet enough for Juan Soto?

Justin Mason

10:04

Definitely

KCC26

timing is everything! decided last week that I had enough pitching to move some for offense. traded away Imanaga only to watch Bradish/Yamamoto go down in the days that followed. no question, just venting

Justin Mason

10:04

Pitching is so rough right now with all the injuries. You can pretty much never have enough

Why not Zoidberg?

10:04

Last closer spot for a weekly league – would you start Hader, A. Diaz, or E. Diaz?

Justin Mason

10:04

Hader

Adenolith

10:05

Shallow league with some decent options – would you take any of B. Doyle, N. Gonzales, Caballero, Casas (injury stash), over Joey Ortiz? Who’s your pick?

Justin Mason

10:05

Depends on the format, but in roto, I would take Doyle. In a points league, I go Gonzales

Heliot Ramos

10:05

Flash in the pan or surprise breakout? How do you expect him to perform ROS?

Justin Mason

10:06

The underlying numbers say this is a hot streak, but the Giants should just let him play so I would ride it for now.

Adenolith

10:06

I recognize this is a great problem to have, but I need to add another closer to my weekly league and need to sit a starter. Who’d you bench? Grayson @ Hou, Sale @ NYY, Flaherty v CHW, Lodolo @ Pit, Skubal @ Atl, Ragans @ Oak, Crochet @ Hou?

Justin Mason

10:06

Crochet at Hou

Amazing problem to have tbh

Paradise

10:06

Thoughts on Shane Baz arriving this week in Tampa? No need for Rays to waste any innings on that arm in the minors. He has to get the call agreed?

Justin Mason

10:07

I would hope so, but I always worry about the Tampa process.

Winker Taylor Soler Spy

10:07

12T 5x5 OBP redraft. Need to drop one: Winker, Springer, Castellanos. Who you got?

Justin Mason

10:07

Winker

Catch it

10:08

I’m in a shallow points league. Thought Jeffers was a steal in early may but he’s cooled sooooo much. Drop for Danny Jansen or keibert Ruiz?

Justin Mason

10:08

I would for Jansen, but it is a pretty lateral move.

seth

10:08

traded gil+tyler black for mookie+fairbanks, now am sad

Justin Mason

10:09

Mookie going down is devastating. Great process, poor results.

Greenmtnboys

10:09

A. Pages 6 games 4 at Coors or Ward 5 games 2 at LAD?

Justin Mason

10:09

Pages

Moundhill

10:09

Would you rather have Reynaldo Lopez or Bryan Woo ROS?

Justin Mason

10:09

Lopez. I am worried about Woo's arm

Drop One

10:09

Zach Neto (9HR/9SB) or David Hamilton (.340OBP/18SB)

Justin Mason

10:09

Hamilton

arcM

10:10

Hi Justin, I'm comfortably in 2nd place in a 12T H2H points league and starting to look to the end of the season. I've been offered Gallen for Santander. The wire has some decent OF options and few starters available. Should I snap this deal off (pending Gallen's sim game tomorrow)?

Justin Mason

10:10

yes

Bruh

10:10

I know I can’t replace Mookie, but what do you think of David Hamilton in a points lg?

Justin Mason

10:11

As long as you get a fair amount of points for his steals, he is a nice pick up. The stolen bases will be there, but other things may slow down.
