Who’s to have the better season from these risky pitchers. Rank:
Justin Mason
12:45
hold down shift if you are trying to get to a new line when you hit enter
cool 1

Is there anybody not currently in the Top 10 for SP’s that will work their way in by the end of the year?
also, are you keeping tabs on the “Lance Lynn could be signed to be someone’s closer” idea/chatter?
Justin Mason
12:46
Schwellenbach, Pablo Lopez, Bailey Ober, Gerrit Cole (if healthy)
Thug, Life Partner
12:46
Trey Sweeny open year in MLB (not minors)?
Justin Mason
12:46
I think he opens on the strong side of a platoon at SS

How do see the KC outfield shaking out over the course of the year?  Renfroe, Isbel...seems to be the definition of mediocrity. Any new blood likely to get looks?  Cross or others?
Justin Mason
12:47
I think it is a rotating door unless there is a trade for someone
Peter
12:47
How soon do you think Roman Anthony is up or does he break camp with the Sox?
Justin Mason
12:48
I think at worst he is up by the end of april. I drafted him yesterday. He has too much talent to hold down
Wood
12:48
Not Justin but Spencer Schwellenbach will be a top 10 SP by end of year
Justin Mason
12:48
YES!
Tanner

Would you rather have Peralta ($15), Steele ($15), or Greene ($10)? standard league, with 9 teams.
Justin Mason
12:50
Steele

McClanahan

Re: "Too excited about to see red flags", am I crazy to object to everyone just assuming Merrill is now an early rounder?  Seems like people are assuming 2024 was the floor when it may well have been a best case
Justin Mason
12:51
I think there is a lot to like. Great contact skills with developing power. Plays great defense which will keep him in the lineup. I think he is like a prime Benentendi
Wood
12:51
Do we get 1st half Kwan or 2nd half Kwan?
Justin Mason
12:51
first half

Sasaki's OOPSY - 5.29 ERA, 3.29 FIP? - seems like it has an oopsy in it
Justin Mason
12:52
yeah, that can't be right
Nick
12:53
I saw my question posted but not your response
Justin Mason
12:53
depends on how long you can keep, but if it is forever, I would gamble on Holliday. If it is just for a year, Jones
Splendid Master Splinter
12:53
Most important but least focused on stat and why is it plate appearances?
Justin Mason
12:54
because at the end of the day, volume wins championships. If you can't volume, you won't win.
Stephen T
12:54
Will this be the year Houston collapses and not make playoffs?
Justin Mason
12:54
I don't think so because no other team in the west got better
Stephen T
12:54
That high on Shane McC. Wow ok
Justin Mason
12:55
I don't know if I am that high, but I really don't like the injury risk pitcher group as a whole. At least Tampa has said they are going to push McClanahan.

Justin I can't wait to ask you my question. It's currently the most important thing on my mind and I've been waiting to ask all offseason:
Justin Mason
12:55
lmao
Bregman 2B
12:55
Will someone please tell the Red Sox that Bregman is WAY more valuable as a 2B/3B in my leagues vs. 3B only? And that I would appreciate some clarity.
Justin Mason
12:55
I will send them an email
Dave

12 team NL only roto league.  I'm debating between I. Herrera or Ben Brown/ J.Wicks as my last keeper.  They're all $1.  Do you keep Herrera as an accumulator for one of the two catcher spots or do you keep one of the pitchers and hope for the upside
Justin Mason
12:56
Herrera for me

Hi justin, glad to see you course corrected in the power department in the Barf draft. Who is your Brenton Doyle this year? Someone who will be drafted very late and becomes a stud out of nowhere.
Justin Mason
12:57
Tirso Ornelas

In a 15-team 7x7 dynasty league using actual MLB contracts/service time/control years, what would a trade package for Vladdy look like, assuming it's a one-year rental?  Start 25, each position + 4 utility, 5 SP and 7 RP. Cats are BA/OBP/SLG/HR/R/RBI/SB, ERA/WHIP/K:BB/K/BAA/SV+HD/QS
Justin Mason
12:58
I would want a lot back for Vladdy. at least four players with one top 25 guy
