14t dynasty (standard 5, QS), please rank these SP for RoS and beyond: Ober, Cecconi, Priester, Bello, Soroka

Cecconi, Ober, Bello, Priester, Soroka

Listening to your discussion with Jason yesterday about Royce Lewis, 12 team keeper league with tons of pitching but weak in hitting - I offered this: Michael Harris and Kumar Rocker for Royce Lewis and TJ Friedl.  The other owner has an old team so I'm trying to sell him some youth?  Thoughts?
Justin Mason
12:01
I love this deal. You get the best player for this year in Friedl and the highest upside player for now and the future in Lewis. Great job
Tim
12:02
ROS and beyond: a) Otto Lopez,  b) Ha-Seong Kim, c) they’re the same guy d) they’re the same guy, but Otto also has 2B eligibility for ‘26 already
Justin Mason
12:03
I still lean Kim here for the future even though he is older. Lopez probably for this year because I just dont know how quickly Kim will shake off the rust.
Stuck in the Middle
12:03
10-team, 6x6 (OPS).  Better ROS: Tovar or Otto Lopez?  Need R, AVG and OPS.
Justin Mason
12:03
Tovar
Hank
12:03
Thoughts on Woodruff after his start yesterday?  Definitely looked better than many expected.  How would you compare him vs. starters like G. Williams, Bibee and Gausman ROS.
Justin Mason
12:05
I was really impressed with his first start. Definitely better than I expected out of the gate. I think there will be bumps along the way after such a long layoff. I would have it Gausman, Bibee, Woodruff, Williams, but I can see a world in which Woodruff is the best out of that group
Arms, Troubles
12:05
Could you rank these arms: Slade C, Colton Gordon, T Rogers? Are they all above the rp threshold (Matt Brash) in an al only?
Justin Mason
12:06
Cecconi, Gordon, Rogers. I think they are all above brash for me
RAGBRAI
12:06
Do the Brewers trade from the seemingly/currently surplus of their pitchers for a bat? If so, OF or IF bat?
Justin Mason
12:06
I would be surprised if they did considering how quickly that depth can disappear
Bench Press
12:06
Hi! Bench bat in a daily AL OBP league: Michael A Taylor or Sam Haggerty? Would love steals but also everything else. Could also go with a reliever (Brash, Armstrong)...
Justin Mason
12:07
Haggerty if I went with a bat. Brash if you go with the reliever
A’s Good as it Gets
12:07
Ginn and Perkins have both looked interesting out the fka oakland pen. Would you buy either, especially with sevy maybe leaving?
Justin Mason
12:07
Nah, Severino isn't going anywhere.
PG
12:07
What’re we doing with Rasmussen?  Opener for “a few starts”?
Justin Mason
12:08
They are limiting his innings and he probably only has 70 left. I think I am benching for right now
Beck and Call
12:08
Rank these OF in a 12-team OBP league please? Jordan Beck, Austin Hays, Sal Frelick, Lars Nootbaar
Justin Mason
12:08
Frelick, Nootbaar, Hays, Beck
Chris
12:09
Ryne Nelson has been on quite the streak with some pretty nearly FB metrics.  K’s are little light but seems like the breakout is real.  Time to buy?
Justin Mason
12:10
I think now is the time to buy. The stuff is really good and he is commanding it. The strikeouts may be lower than we first thought they could be, but I could also see a jump at some point.
WMQ
12:10
I’m ready to deal Skenes and need the most bang for the buck offensively (namely HR). League has been reluctant to trade, so need to make a juicy offer. Thinking of going for Bellinger, PCA or Vladdy. Thoughts on anyone else that would be a better option?
Justin Mason
12:12
If I am moving Skenes, I want a stud. Can you get someone like James Wood or Corbin Carroll or even Juan Soto? Maybe even Kyle Tucker?
RAGBRAI
12:12
Riley/Costallanos or Perdomo/Sheets. NL only, which side do you want? Is it close?
Justin Mason
12:13
Riley side. Not close
Lord Thunder
12:13
Are we going to find that Corbin Carroll came back too quickly from injury? Should he at least have done an MiLB rehab?
Justin Mason
12:13
I hope not. Too early to tell
RAGBRAI
12:14
Does Gallen get traded or has his stock dropped too much to make it worthwhile?
Justin Mason
12:14
I dont know that the Diamondbacks are sellers. The are 4.5 back in the WC. That is a hot week away from closing that gap.
Joe Boyle's Right Arm
12:14
12 team standard points, cut Schwellenbach/Hunter Greene/Bryce Miller/Snell? Hang on and let ride?
Justin Mason
12:15
Definitely cutting Schwellenbach. Would consider cutting miller. Probably holding Snell and Greene if I can
Jon
12:16
Luis Garcia Jr was dropped in my league (5x5 OBP roto). Worth a pickup? I'm desperate for steals and could use MI help but wonder if he's actually a difference maker
Justin Mason
12:17
He is probably only stealing like 8-10 more bases at the high end. So if that is what you are in need of, you may want to take a gamble somewhere else.
RAGBRAI
12:17
What do you see N Marte doing ROS?
Justin Mason
12:18
Some pop, a bit of speed and a mediocre average. The problem with Marte is the hit tool is inconsistent. We could see a massive hot streak or a massive cold one or a combination of both.
RAGBRAI
12:19
Crews back post ASB? Would you drop Baty, Lux or Nootbar for him?
