dropped Bobby Miller for a streaming slot. will i regret it before the season ends?

Justin Mason

10:36

I honestly have no idea what to expect from him ROS. I don't think you should regret it even if he ends up being good. It is the right process at this point.

Hanging on…

10:36

Been a rough year of injuries for me, but somehow I’m in position for a playoff spot. In keeping my team afloat I’ve burned all but my last allowed waiver move. Zebby and Kopech are available (drop Hoffman I think). Do you gamble, burn that last move to solidify the spot now, and hope there’s no major offensive injury left on your team that the wire can plug? Or better to keep that last move freed up if I need it?

Justin Mason

10:37

If you need a closer, I am grabbing Kopech now. Potential elite closer for the best team in baseball? Yes please.

Rugrats

Cody Bradford vs Zebby, who's better ROS in a 6x6 wins and QS league? Zebby is more skilled, but MN seems to limit their rookies to 5 innings unless they are cruising, and Bradford's matchups look amazing (PIT,CWS,OAK,LAA,SEA,TOR,OAK,LAA)

Justin Mason

10:38

Give me Bradford. Zebby is still an unknown and while I am intrigued by him, Bradford has been good and that schedule is amazing

Tim

10:38

I’m prepared to be without Soriano for the remainder of 24, how concerned are you about the arm fatigue?

Justin Mason

10:38

I don't want to freak out yet, but it is concerning. Could just be a guy that isn't used to pitching this many innings tho.

10:38

Who is my keeper catcher in 14 team dynasty for next year: JT Realmuto or Tyler stephenson ... or cut both when the time comes?

Justin Mason

10:38

REalmuto still for me

Tim

10:38

Bowden Francis only went from 22% to 24% owned in Yahoo after yesterday. Too many people sleeping?

Justin Mason

10:39

Too many people that have turned their attention to football.

Vince

Del Castillo is hitting pretty well but I have Rutschman and even when he sits he often pinch hits. Don't really have extra bench space, but would you pick him up in a 12-teamer over say, Tyler Fitzgerald once (if?) he goes back to being a pumpkin? I feel the O's could rest Rutschman more often as the season draws to a close.

Justin Mason

10:40

No, I would rather have the IF/OF guy that can plug holes over the back up catcher

Finals starts today in my 10-team H2H pts. League only 5 adds allowed over the 2 weeks. Would you let it ride with Zac Gallen/Merrill Kelly (my worst pitchers) or pickup someone hot like a Martin Perez or Jonathan Cannon?

Justin Mason

10:40

I think I would ride with Gallen/Kelly

The Horror, The Horwitz

10:40

Cleanup Hitter on bad team: Andrew Vaughn or Spencer Horwitz. (OBP league)

Justin Mason

10:40

Tough, but Horwitz

Cole World

10:40

Is $15 G-Cole too much to pay in AL only keeper for Bryce Miller and Kyle "Not Dead Yet" Tucker? (Tucker would sub in for Mullins/Langford/Springer once revived)

Justin Mason

10:41

I don't think it is too much

Pitchers

10:41

Bradford, Springs, Bello, Festa, who is out?

Justin Mason

10:41

Springs

Doo-Doo

10:41

I made this dashboard that I send out to my league weekly. No questions I'm just proud of it.

Justin Mason

10:41

OMG! That is amazing!

Teach me your ways

Biscuit

10:41

Can't believe I am asking this but in a 16 team league, 7x7 with holds, would you sub in Kahnle for Fried, Bello or Burnes? Bello has been good lately, but the Sneks are a strong offense. Fried and Burnes have been struggling.

Justin Mason

10:42

I don't mind subbing in for Fried. He scares me right now

Showbusiness77

10:42

10-tm H2H pts made it to finals. I have Muncy and Buxton on IL. My league has 4 UTIL spots. What batters if any would you drop to activate them? (Cowser, Toglia are my worst bats, Semien seems to be heating up). Or would you make different moves prior to Muncy being activated today and just keep him and Buxton on IL (break in case of glass)?

Justin Mason

10:42

Maybe just keep muncy on the IL in case of a setback for right now

10:43

If I did drop someone, it would be Toglia since the Rockies start a road trip today

Charlie

10:43

10 teamer keep 5: Judge ($59), Gilbert ($23), Witt Jr. ($17), Ober ($14), Imanaga ($13), Cole ($12), Santander ($7), J. Duran ($5), Flaherty ($5). Thanks!

Justin Mason

10:44

Witt, Duran, Ober, Cole, Gilbert, Flaherty

10-team H2H points league finals start today: Would you drop a backup bat to roll with a 5th Closer? (league only has 3 RP slots (I have Hader/Yates/Devin Williams) but I have Mason Miller SP/RP to roll with 4 and I COULD pickup Kopech and/or Ryan Walker for more of the same. Other option is wait until there is an SP I no longer need but that will be a full week into the 2 week finals.

Justin Mason

10:44

I don't mind doing that at all. Just know that one terrible outing may bury you because of lack of innings to make up for it.

Tim

10:45

On a scale of 10, how confident are you in a H2H dynasty rotation of: Nola, Ober, Crawford, Wacha, C. Sanchez, Pepiot, Bello, Ortiz, Francis, Povich? I’m missing Senga, Olson, Soriano, Garrett due to injury. Sorry for the rate my team post

Justin Mason

Spot Startin'

10:45

Francis or Boyd? Or just matchups?

Justin Mason

10:45

Play the matchups for me.

Jace is the Place

10:45

Jace Jung's eye seems to have ported over from the minors. Is he a good OBP play over a more established but struggling bat like Verdugo?
