14 team 7x7 league. Looking to upgrade at 2b, you like Gorman or Bogaerts more? I also have Rengifo off IL soon.
Justin Mason
11:14
Bogaerts
Nick
11:14
Thanks for chatting!  In a 12-team 5x5 head-to-head league, do you like Luis Garcia, David Hamilton, or Michael Busch as a utility type to fill an open roster spot?
Justin Mason
11:14
Hamilton
Mike
11:14
Is Tatis more of top 30 hitter than a top10?
Justin Mason
11:14
When healthy, he is top 10

I have 362 innings left for the year. If I roster 5 closers while chasing saves, I have Greene, Pfaadt, King, and J. Jones coming back, how would you manage the SP usage? 12 team QS league.
Justin Mason
11:16
You really want to manage your starts rest of the way. I would spreadsheet it out and see what projections say is their likely projected innings rest of the way and then have a running clock on their starts as the season continues to go on.

My IL pitchers include Musgrove, E Rodriquez, Weathers, Jones, and Waldrep. Is there much for them helping this year in my NL 5x5? How about next year?
Justin Mason
11:17
I think Jones should be back soon and give help. Hard to know about Musgrove and E-Rod, though I picked up Musgrove in a couple of leagues last week to be ahead of things once his rehab starts.

I was going to give Andrew Vaughn until Casas returns but I can’t stand looking at him on my roster anymore; 14t H2H dynasty, would you try to jump on Adell’s heater or take a spec on Nolan Jones?
Justin Mason
11:19
Vaughn is hitting .279/.321/.476 with seven home runs since the beginning of June with good underling skills. I prefer him to both Adell and Jones.n

I hope Adolis is watching Randy's turn around and taking notes
Justin Mason
11:20
Adolis has always been a free swinger and he is just not making enough in zone contact. If he could be more selective in and out of the zone, the talent is still there for a turnaround.

What do you make of Soler RoS - do you see a power binge coming?
Justin Mason
11:22
He is the guy he has always been. A ton of power but doesn't make a ton of in-zone contact so he is streaky. When those streaks come are hard to predict.
Putting Baby in a Corner
11:22
Hi! Can you pick favorite/least favorite among these corner bats? OBP league: Justin Turner, JH Malloy, Andrew Vaughn, Loperfido?
Justin Mason
11:23
Favorite: Vaughn
Least Favorite: Malloy
Ben
11:23
are we all now living in Alec Burleson’s world?
Justin Mason
11:24
We are. All Burleson needed was a chance and the struggles of other Cardinals is giving it to him. No reason to think he can't play regularly rest of the way.
Save/WAR Fare
11:24
Could you rank these save specs? Hunter Harvey, Joyce, Shelby Miller, brebbia
Justin Mason
11:24
Joyce, Brebbia, Harvey, Miller
DJ
11:24
Yandy Diaz or Juan Yepez ROS? Think Andrew Vaughn could continue his hot streak?
Justin Mason
11:24
Yepez and yes
Heh Heh Heaney
11:24
Buying Heaney's recent success? I know he's fooled us all before.
Justin Mason
11:25
Nah, he still struggles with command and control from inning to innning. I love to see him successful, but I am not bought in that this is anything different.
Nach your Nachos
11:25
Expectations for Nacho Alvarez? I had Jacob Wilson but that lasted all of a day
Justin Mason
11:25
Low end accumulator if he plays regularly.

Hey Justin. 14 team yahoo 6x6 with OPS and QS. I was offered TON for Bryce Miller. Have all but 4 points on pitching side but offense lacking in R, HR, RBI, and OPS. In first overall by 17 points. Safe trade?
Justin Mason
11:26
Seems safe
Dennis
11:26
How do you feel about Brooks Lee ROS? See him staying with the Twins or would you try to move him in a prospects hungry keeper league for someone more established?
Justin Mason
11:27
I really like Lee from a skills prospective. He is making a ton of contact and has some pop and speed. However, I think he loses playing time once the Twins get healthy. He could even go to the minors.
Honkus Wagner
11:27
Are you holding Bobby Miller in a keeper? feels crazy to be asking this
Justin Mason
11:27
Of course
bdubs
11:28
Of all the current closers, which would you give the greatest likelihood for getting traded, and if traded, who would you give the greatest odds to for becoming the new closer?
Justin Mason
11:28
Tanner Scott gets dealt and AJ Puk is the new Marlins closer.
11:29
Also think the Carlos Estevez gets traded and Ben Joyce is the Angels closer
RAGBRAI
11:29
Do you think ATL fades from the playoffs after recent injuries? Who do the trade for to save the season? Who do they trade away to make it happen?
Justin Mason
11:31
I could see them making moves for guys that just fill holes until they can get healthy. A guy like Paul DeJong makes a ton of sense or the infield.
No question, just a comment
11:31
James Wood has had a wonky schedule thus far. Nine of his 17 starts thus far have come against LHP meaning 54% of his PA have come against lefties thus far. So his stats thus far are really wonky. We should have a better idea of his line in another week and a half since 8 of his next 9 are against RHP per Roster Resource and the series after that is Milwaukee who is currently rolling with an entirely RH rotation. That is all.
