I don't think top 20, but top 30 maybe

Chucky

12:31

As per your Butler concerns as stated above, trade Butler for Logan Henderson in a keep forever? Butler was a keeper of mine over LuBob.

Justin Mason

12:32

I think I would want a bit more back for Butler. I like Henderson, but he is a two pitch guy and that will be problematic until he finds that third pitch

Hi Justin,

Justin Mason

12:32

HI!

nick

12:32

gallen has been rough this season. we still holding on in 12s? roupp would probably be best replacement on the WW

Justin Mason

12:33

yeah, I am not dropping him for Roupp

Yordan Alvarez

12:33

Do I return to form when I come off IL?

Justin Mason

12:33

I think he will

Matt W.

12:33

Has your opinion changed of Andrew Abbott 4 good starts in a row.

Justin Mason

12:34

not really. The starts have been but the stuff is still not very good and I don't believe in the control. That park is scary as well. I think this is a sell high point with the Cubs coming to town on Friday

Erik

12:35

Think a Jasson Dominguez breakout is eventually coming? Or is he just a middling OF the rest of the year?

Justin Mason

12:35

I would lean towards the latter

Tim

12:35

How much more regression to the mean do we see in Tylor Megill? The latest outings have been really rough and we’re actually approaching a month since his last QS

Justin Mason

12:36

the last two were two really good teams getting lucky in the BABIP on him. I want to hold for now because after he faces Boston this week, he gets a White Sox home start the following week

Brian in Cape Porpoise Maine

12:37

Is Moises Ballesteros’s bat ready? Is he a short time injury replacement? Major league results suggest he needs more seasoning, AAA stats suggest he’s a prodigy, phenotype suggests he’s svelter John Kirk.

Justin Mason

12:37

I think he is a short term option while HApp is on the IL. Will get some strong side ABs in the meantime, but I don't know that he is super enticing outside of deeper two-catcher leagues for this season.

30t dynasty just how too-quickly did we move on from braves sending harris/albies getting maikel/dcrews?

Justin Mason

12:38

I have no problem with that. I think Crews could be the best player in that deal and I love Garcia

matty25

12:38

Time to cut Semien lose in a 14-teamer?

Justin Mason

12:38

borderline

Christina

12:38

in dynasty for ROs and beyond, who’s best: Birdsong, Dobbins, Priester

Justin Mason

12:39

Dobbins, Birdsong, Priester

Zebby Stardust

12:39

Thoughts on Zebby Matthews? Is he a viable 12 teamer ahead of the likes of Meyer, Leiter, Roupp, etc?

Justin Mason

12:40

I love the stuff, but Twins will be really careful with his usage, so I wouldn't expect many wins or any QS for the most part. There is also a chance he gets sent back down pretty quickly if he struggles at all. I would put Meyer and Leiter above him in terms of ROS value, but he clearly has the highest upside of the group

Guest

Is Baz broken?

Justin Mason

12:40

feels like it

Baz

12:40

Shane Baz has good stuff/location, k-bb, etc, but can't even take down the Marlins. Would you sit vs blue jays this week?

Justin Mason

12:40

depends on my other options, but probably

mochibetts

12:40

re: Noah Cameron, had good K% all through the minors. Any reason to think he won't level out well above the current 13% and trend more towards 20-22%?

Justin Mason

12:41

I think he should be closer to 20%. He is a guy I targeted in FAAB this week. Just depends on how long Ragans and Lugo are out for to see if he can solidify a rotation spot.

Adenolith

12:42

Logan Henderson or Zebby?

Justin Mason

12:42

Henderson for this year

Zebby long term

Guest

12:42

If you had to guess today, will Jordan Lawlar adapt to MLB pitching (somehow while playing part time) or will he be sent back down eventually?

Justin Mason

12:42

I think he is more likely to get sent down than have value right now

Tallulah Trebuchet

12:43

Would you hang on to Xavier Edwards or Bryce Miller in a 12 teamer? Out of IL slots and can only stash one. Need both steals and innings, unfortunately.

Justin Mason

12:43

Miller for me

Greg

12:43

Birdsong or Henderson in a standard roto league?

Justin Mason

12:43

Henderson
