Playing him in the outfield is a massive mistake and they need to return him to second. I might adjust my projections on pitchers a little bit but not much.

Masyn Whiff

12:21

Ok, spring traning stats don't count but they can be indicator of changes good or bad. How worried should we be on Maysn Winn after a 4 for 50 spring training and no hits so far, just lots of Ks? No one pushing to replace Masyn in depth chart so he's playing but man it's been bad.

Justin Mason

12:21

Strikeouts and walks are two of the things in spring that can carry over so this is troubling. I am a bit worried but it is still early

13 team 5x5 roto league. No MI or CI positions, but 2 DH slots. I was offered Corey Seager OR Marcel Ozuna for Logan Gilbert. Already have Tovar, Swanson, Winn, Edman, Ortiz as SS options. And my pitching is Ryan, Ray, Rasmussen, Pivetta, Williams, Megill, Soriano, Brown, Soroka, Is giving up Gilbert worth Seager or orzuna?

Justin Mason

12:22

Nope. I want Gilbert over both

Am I benching Devers and C Walker until they've gotten back on track? 12-tm H2H league (no CI or MI, 3 OF) leaves decent replacement-level streamers...

Justin Mason

12:22

probably not. Devers is the only one I would consider benching of the two

Done with Bedard? I’ve seen and heard the bad defense/bad luck syndrome being used as an alibi but this guy hasn’t been blue to get the first batter out. Is Santana the future in the Steel City?

Justin Mason

12:23

I am still holding Bednar where I have him, but I also have Santana handcuffed to him. I do think that he is next up.

Egg Danger

12:23

Better IL stash for this year and possibly longer: Jared Jones or Shane Bieber?

Justin Mason

12:23

Jones

Chucky

12:24

Whatcha doing with Max? If rest isn’t going to cure the thumb issue, is he done-zo?

Justin Mason

12:24

He is a drop in mixed leagues for me

SUSaki

12:24

Do you think Sasaki would’ve even started in the majors if it weren’t for the Japan series and PPI eligibility?

Justin Mason

12:25

I think he would have but I don't think he would have if he was not such a massive prospect coming out of Japan. I think he needs time in AAA. I will be interested to see if he gets sent down or put on the IL.

Tim

12:25

Kyle Bradish worth stashing now in a 14t dynasty? I’d like extra quality SP depth but it’ll be a few month wait

Justin Mason

12:25

Nah

Guest

12:26

Time to worry on Ober?

Justin Mason

12:26

nope. Reports are that he had the flu and tried to pitch through it. I think he will be fine.

High5Ghost

12:27

Any interest in Victor Scott? What do you have him projected for?

Justin Mason

12:27

I had him projected for 8 homers and 31 SBs.

Damn the Torpedos & Yankees

12:27

My Cortes was hit & sunk by several torpedos. What are the rules on bat specifications and if the torpedos continue these direct hits, do you think MLB steps in to ban them?

Justin Mason

12:28

Apparently these are legal, but I wouldn't be surprised if MLB comes in and bans them at some point. We have seen MLB step in and ban things midseason (spider tack) so if this craziness continues, don't be surprised if they decide to step in.

JJP

12:28

Tinoco on DL, grab Bender in NL only

Justin Mason

12:28

agreed

Why Not Zoidberg?

12:28

Between Leiter and Rocker, who are you adding?

Justin Mason

12:29

Rocker. I think his role is a little safer long term

DCS

12:29

Trying to plan out my last two starting pitchers in 14 team dynasty league— Holmes, Hart, Ortiz today, May tomorrow, Irvin later this week, and Hart and Ortiz later this week. Starting grant Holmes later already. Thoughts on which two?

Justin Mason

12:29

Give me Holmes and May

Tim

12:29

When Bello comes off IL, I’ll have a decision to make, which of these three would be the cut: Bello, Francis, Megill?

Justin Mason

12:30

It would be between Francis and Bello for me. If Francis is pitching well, I cut Bello

9 team NL only league. I have never seen that split-change thing from AJ Smith-Sawver before. Does it actually may him usable as a 5th starter?

Justin Mason

12:30

I think he is a viable guy in a lot of formats and probably locked into a rotation spot for a while.

Guest

12:30

Between Kochanowicz or Logan Allen, who would you add? Any thoughts on whether Kyren Paris can be a contributor?

Justin Mason

12:31

I would go with Allen because the upside is greater. Paris is probably just a placeholder until Neto is ready.

Chucky

12:31

Do you fancy any of the Colorado pitchers on the road away from Coors that might be feasible streams? The league wide pitching injuries are coming fast and furious and experienced SPs are at a premium. Colorado SPs always seem to be available on WW…for obvious reasons.

Justin Mason

12:31

Nope. I just don't trust them at all

Jon

12:31

Hola Justin! 10T mixed roto, can you rank these starters for me? R Fitts, Boyd, Megill, Verlander, R Olson. Thanks!

Justin Mason

12:32

Olson, Megill, Verlander, Fitts, Boyd,

Thanks Justin

12:32

Podapooloza fund raising and doing the chats. Appreciate you.
