are you drafting any Luis Robert shares this year?
Justin Mason
2:53
probably not. between the injuries and the degradation in Z-Contact, I just don't want that level of risk
plus the white sox

How much higher would you move Cal Raleigh in an OPB league as opposed to an avg league? in an overall rankings
Justin Mason
2:54
He definitely moves up. Probably my catcher 2 or 3

Speaking of Michael Harris, do you view him as rising or falling this year?
Justin Mason
2:55
I think he is who he is at this point. Plays well when he is on the field but he doesn't volume because of injuries and being put at the bottom of the lineup when he struggles. Until he becomes more patient at the plate, I worry the inconsistency will remain.

Noelvi Marte was a relatively highly regarded prospect and had a good 200 at-bat stretch in 2023. Last year obviously was a disaster. Is there any hope long-term?
Justin Mason
2:56
Long term? Sure, but there are just too many pieces in Cincy for him to get a shot early on.

You buying the jacked Jacob Young hype? if he was able to convince you he could get to double digit homers consistently, how many spots would he move up in your rankings?
Justin Mason
2:57
I was already higher on Young than the market. I don't even need the homers but I will take any extra I get. For me I just want him to get on base and steal me a whole bunch of bags.

Thoughts on Grayson Rodriguez. I feel like he is due for a breakout given his age and metrics (great Ks, improving walk rate, etc.), and could return incredible value.
Justin Mason
2:57
Just needs to stay on the mound and he will be great

Your 'punt AVG' strategy went so well for me last year, I'm doing it again. Give me ALL the Kyle Schwarber - who else?
Justin Mason

So I look for guys that have years of fluctuation in their batting average and are coming off of a bad season. Like Jeimer Candalrio and Matt Olson are good examples this year. I will also sort the leaderboard by xBA and the see who had the biggest gaps between their average and xBA.

Which two current MLB managers would be funniest to see square off in a benches-clearing brawl?
Justin Mason

Give me a battle between two older guys that look like they were tough SOBs in their youth. Bruce Bochy vs Rob Thompson
3:01
Baldelli vs Derek Shelton would be fun too
let's make a March Madness tourney
