Abundant Mediocrity

Thanks for the help here in a deep 5x5 format: Who are you starting this week, pick 2: Zebby (TOR), LOrtiz (@CLE), Taj (SD), Sanchez (HOU), Taillon (@PIT, @WAS)
Justin Mason
10:02
I think I lean Zebby and Sanchez here
T Bone

Do you know if the fantasy points from the suspended Red Sox Blue Jays game today get counted for this week or do they get retro applied to June 26?
Justin Mason
10:02
Depends on the site, but most sites do it retroactive to 6/26
Mike

Just lost Bart in a 1C league. Do you have any preference between Ruiz, Amaya, Kirk or Del Castillo? Or would you just play matchups?
Justin Mason
10:03
I think I just play matchups. I did grab Amaya in a number of leagues becayse he is hot right now
Bruce
10:03
Going to have a roster crunch come playoff time in a 12 team OBP league.  I have to cut two of Muncy/Vientos/Horwitz who gets the axe?  Position elig isn't much of a factor.
Justin Mason
10:03
Horwitz

What is your opinion of Seth Lugo down the stretch? He has looked extremely shaky after his hot first 2/3 of the year.
Justin Mason
10:03
I think this is just natural regression after being too good. Might want to curate his starts a little, but he is still pretty good in that park
Mike
10:04
Are you holding Hunter Greene or Luis Gil?
Justin Mason
10:04
Gil I would. Greene is harder to do so.
Mike
10:04
Is Crews worth adding in a h2h league with playoffs around the corner? With the understanding that it could depend on what other bats are available, is it worth the risk of the unknown? Perhaps be quick to cut if it isn't shaping up early on?
sad 1
Justin Mason
10:05
I think I might take the gamble. Lot of upside in his bat and they aren't bringing him up to sit
seth
10:05
pick 3, Lugo @HOU, Kutter vTOR, Francis @BOS, Parker vNYY and vCHC, Taillon @PIT and @WAS?
Justin Mason
10:05
Lugo and Francis
Idiotic Failson
10:05
Any insight as to how long Willson Contreras will be out? I am in the thick of a dogfight for first with my league trade deadline closing in. I have already sold most of the future assets that aren't chained down to push for a title. Every little bit helps and I wonder if I should part with what is left to try and fill in the hole at C.
Justin Mason
10:06
I saw conflicting reports, but I would assume it is longer than a minimum stay. I held for this week, but I will cut if we don't have better info before the next faab run

So many Q's, So little time (H2H points, playoff bound):
  1. Do you start J. Jones over any 1 start Cole/P. Lopez/Gilbert/Ober/Skubal if he gets a two start week in two weeks?
  2. same question as above, but sub deGrom in a theoretical first start back?
  3. Ride the Bowden train if he's a SPARP pitcher? Options like Mason Miller sit on the wire.
  4. Lost Contreras, added Del Castillo. Happy time? Or look for better in this ten team league?
Justin Mason
10:07
  1. No
  2. No
  3. I am riding with Bowden rn
  4. I think he is a fine add, just be ready to move quick if you need to
JG
10:07
Robbie Ray a drop now ? If he only misses one start , then he gets DBacks & Dodgers if the schedule stays. Deep 12T mix roto. I'm stashing Darvish, Elfin & Schmidt. All should be back in 10 days. TY
Justin Mason
10:08
Yeah, in a 12, I have no problem moving on.
Infield
10:08
Would you drop Hoerner or M. Garcia for Caminero?
Justin Mason
10:08
Garcia is droppable for Caminero
Backup 1B
10:08
Who would you rather have as your backup 1B?  Hoskins, B.Lowe, or O'Hearn?
Justin Mason
10:09
Hoskins
Hanging Curve
10:09
10 team h2h. For playoffs,  Caminero or Casas?
Justin Mason
10:09
Caminero
Chourio
10:09
What's your prediction for Chourio's ADP next year?
Justin Mason
10:09
top 45
maris9

Thoughts on Grant McCray? Just picked him up cheap. Speed first? two homers already. Thanks
Justin Mason
10:10
Has a bit of pop and a good amount of speed. Fantastic defender that could accumulate, but he really struggles with consistent contact.
Woods
10:10
How about your predication for J. Woods ADP next year?  Better than Chourio?
Justin Mason
10:10
I think Wood is close but behind Chourio in ADP
Jimmy
10:10
Please pick one for this week. Happ (6 games but one against the Skenes), Friedl (7 home games) or Yordan (who might be dead).
Justin Mason
10:11
Yordan for me
maris9
10:11
Picked up TB IL player Richard Palacios. Have any future value?
Justin Mason
10:12
In a deeper league a little, but he platoons too much for a lot of formats
DH
10:12
For 2025, would you prefer Brice Turang or Starling Marte (or neither), assuming costs are the same?
