They traded for him so they will probably continue to roll him out, but they shouldnt
Prospecting for Gold
12:45
Which of these three do you envision coming up in September? Trey Yesavage, Jonah Tong, Payton Tolle
Justin Mason
12:46
Tong for sure. Dont think the other two do
how da sloop
12:46
Riley Greene can be kept for $16 in an OBP/TB league. Seems like the cutoff for his value in the draft, so thinking of keeping a $5 Hererra (OF), $5 Tork, $5 Rasmussen instead?
Justin Mason
12:47
I definitely want Rasmussen and Tork at those prices.
Gary

Why is it that many times SP start out the game great and then suddenly lose command in the in the third fourth or fifth innings?
Justin Mason
12:47
can be fatigue or mechanics. I think we forget just how hard pitching is.
Minnesota arms
12:47
Speaking of them doing a great job with their pitchers, what does Zebby Matthews need to do next to turn his strikeouts into more consistent performance?
Justin Mason
12:48
He needs better command which is one of the hardest things to learn

Thanks for all you do. I heard the discussion about Devers on the pod. You guys were talking about him as a 3B, but FYI he hasn't played a single game there this year and will lose eligibility next year.
Justin Mason
12:48
I blame paul
Pete
12:49
A two start McGreevy (or Oviedo) OR a 1 start Gavin Williams?
Justin Mason
12:49
Williams

Workload questions aside, are you a believer in Luis Morales?
Justin Mason
12:50
I am a believer in the ceiling, but the questions about command and control are still there. Fun arm to gamble on

Please rank for 12-team H2H, playoffs start next week, QS league: Javier, Gil, Zebby, Chandler.
Justin Mason
12:50
Gil, Chandler, Zebby, Javier
Robbie Ray
12:50
Yesterday was brutal and now reports that velocity is down, big concern going forward?
Justin Mason
12:50
Always a concern when you hear velo drop especially on a guy that had had injury issues.

Spencer Strider or Bryce Miller this week?
Justin Mason
12:50
Strider
Mike
12:50
McLean vs. Philly.  Must start even against a good hitting team?
Justin Mason
12:51
Yeah, I am not sitting him right now
Pre-game Rituals
12:51
Hi Justin, in saves only, do we like O’Brien or Armstrong? Thanks again.
Justin Mason
12:51
Armstrong

What does being pushed from 3B to RF by Hayes do to Noelvi Marte's value going forward?
Justin Mason
12:52
I think Marte's value is all about his ability to control the strike zone, make contact, and stay on the field. He has done a good job of the first two this year so I think that there is some optimism heading into 2026.

Jacob Lopez is an auto drop or any chance ever so slim he makes a start Saturday/Sunday?
Justin Mason
12:53
I think he is likely a drop

10-tm ESPN cust pts. Final week. Chance to win league with a final 1 day pitching stack on Sat 30th.  already have Abbott (STL), Gilbert ( @CLE). 2 adds left. I can use a 2-starts SP and/or 1 for insurance:  Grab Schlittler (WSH, @CHW) and McGreevy (PIT, @CIN) or see if the appendage (Richard) Fitts? He follows today @BAL and vs. PIT on the 30th. (3 guaranteed starts from better pitchers OR the possibility of 2 starts/2 follows or 3 starts/1 follow but Fitts is included?) TY so much!
Justin Mason
12:54
Give me Schlittler and McGreevy here

Do you think Charlie Condon is an elite prospect again after his latest hot streak?
Justin Mason
12:54
I dont think much has changed for his profile
Vince
12:54
Lost the always healthy Semien. 2B replacements aren't great - Baty, Polanco, Caballero, Cronenworth. H2H OBP.
Justin Mason
12:54
Baty

12:55
Got offered $41 Devers in an Ottoneu 4x4 league for Sal Steward & Konnor Griffin. I'm competing, but declined as I already have Yandy & JRam at 1st & 3rd, and I don't think I'd play Devers over them given how he's been slumping. Crazy?
Justin Mason
12:55
I love Griffin and so I would probably do this even though it might be a long wait. I traded him in a dynasty earlier this year and have regretted it ever since
Bog
12:55
Is Austin Riley just like a 120 wRC+ guy now? Will have him for $40 in Ottoneu next year
Justin Mason
12:56
I think he should rebound but 40 seems like a lot
Did you Marsee what I Marsaw?
12:56
Feelings on plausible upside fantasy case for Marsee in the long term?  Might he be a top-20 fantasy OF or does his minors history make that too implausible?
