Why is Michael Harris II aging like he's 34 instead of 24? He's on the verge of losing playing time.

This is the problem with his lack of approach. You cant swing outside the zone this much and continue to be consistent. He will heat up at some point and his defense and contract will keep him on the field, but this is why I do not draft him at his price.

Commish here in my 10-tm ESPN daily H2H pts league. My opponent took issue with my trade of Cease/Strider/Romano for Peralta/Bibee/Taillon. Is this a veto-worthy trade in your opinion? We have never had veto/voting for trades in my league. And I have never wanted to veto one as commish. I always stated if there was anything egregious lole
Justin Mason
12:41
Vetos should only be reserved for collusion in my opinion. Is this trade a little lopsided, maybe, but I don't think it is veto worthy at all

Adell?  Or is this Lucy pulling away the football again?
Justin Mason
12:43
I have tried kicking the football on Adell for a long time, but I truly believe this is growth as a player. Z-Contact is by far the best of his career. He is hitting the ball hard. Making better swing decisions. I don't want to go crazy, but I am a buyer.

Very thin in pitching land on the wire. Any of this group worth flipping B Miller out for?  Falter, Priester, Buehler, Povich, or Kolek.
Justin Mason

nah

Starting Eury this week in total points league, weekly lineups, with his two-step?
Justin Mason
12:44
With his matchups, I would, but there is risk here as I stated above with Giolito, guys returning from TJ struggle with consistent command and control, but if you aren't going to use him for this two-step, when will you?

Better name of a former major leaguer - Pickles Dillhoeffer or Johnny Dickshot?
Justin Mason

Pickles
Point awarded!
Trade review

Damn, chose Gilbert over Webb and Kirby. Wanted the ceiling, and was worried Webb's strikeouts would evaporate (swstr% still meh) and Kirby control wouldn't be all the way back. Oh well!
Justin Mason
12:45
I don't think you can go wrong. Just got to hope Gilbert's health is there because he was higher in my ranks preseason than Kirby and Webb.

Do we believe in Cease moving forward? Was offered cease and Robert suarez for Max fried in a roto league that counts QS and k/bb%, and I have a sizable lead in ERA. Play it safe and hold fried or go with cease and the closer?
Justin Mason
12:46
Give me Cease and the closer

Why not Zoidberg?

Which 2 are you starting this week Ragans, Eury, Pepiot, or May?
Justin Mason
12:47
Ragans and Eury

Happy Monday Justin! Any SF bar recs? Recent spots?
Justin Mason
12:48
I don't drink so I don't know that I am a good person to ask about bars, but The Wreck Room is my favorite sports bar in SF.
Dylan

Isaac Peredes or Tyler Soderstrom ROS
Justin Mason
12:49
Paredes for me, but I love Soderstrom too

Just traded a couple Baby Birds in CMayo and GRod for Vlad and Woo in Ottoneu 4x4. How'd I do?
Justin Mason
12:49
great!
Stott's Tots
12:49
How long is the rope with Bryson Stott? Is he worth dropping in an OBP league with multiple IF positions for any of Otto Lopez, Andres Gimenez or Colt Keith?
Justin Mason
12:49
I would drop for Keith
Wet Wenceel
12:49
Thoughts on Wenceel Perez? Is he worth rostering in a 12-team roto league? Thanks!
Justin Mason
12:51
I worry that the lack of in-zone contact will become an issue for him, but he is striking the ball well and lifting and pulling it, so he could make it work for a while. The problem is playing time when he does go into a cold streak. I think he could lose it completely.
Megill Mayhem
12:51
Tylor looked better at Coors yesterday but is still so inefficient. Any hope for improvement as the season goes on?
Justin Mason
12:54
I really like Megill's stuff and think he should be really good rest of the season. However, there is a lot of risk that when Manaea returns, he heads to the pen because his stuff plays up better there than Canning's or Peterson's would and I think the Mets would be smart to manage his innings a bit considering his health history. I would ride it out until it happens because there may be a natural opening for Manaea before he returns if someone else gets hurt or the regression could come for Peterson or Canning before then, but there is a fair amount of risk here.

Need help in everything but HRs. Which of this group would you drop for J. Lowe, if any: Goodman, K. Carpenter, Royce, Springer?
Justin Mason
12:54
Royce and that makes me sad

Total points league / weekly lineups.  2B…. start Altuve (6 home games vs csox and minn) or a hot R Mauricio (6 home gms vs Tampa and Wash)?
Justin Mason
12:54
Altuve
Keeper League Qs
12:54
13 tm std roto keeper league. I offered Wyatt Langford and Tylor Megill for Chris Sale. The people I've asked are split; half say no way that gets Sale and the other half says omg why would you trade Langford. Am I way off here (trade was rejected without comment so yay)?
