Are your giants in on Suarez or framber and do you think they land one? Or could they sneakily be in on Bichette?
Justin Mason
12:52
I think if they land anyone, it's Bichette or Bellinger. The Giants have shown they are unwilling to give long term deals to free agent pitchers. I think it is much more likely that they dont do anything and roll with what they have because they have shown to be fence sitters
Dodgers Blue
12:52
Simple: First Base Bench Depth, who you got?  Eldridge or Caglianone?
Justin Mason
12:52
Jac
closer than you think
12:52
Does Devin Williams need to be handcuffed?
Justin Mason
12:52
I dont think so
Bobby

I have to commit to Cam Smith this year in dynasty, but I'm unsure if I want to lock up dollars in him (auction salary cap league with up to 5 year "contracts"). Trade for value or keep him and believe?
Justin Mason
12:52
That is really tough. I think I would trade him for value if I am competing this season
Rickey
12:53
So what now for Matt Shaw? Do you think the Cubs are likely to make room for him with a Hoerner trade, and if not, how many plate appearances are there out there for him as a super utility guy? And as a bonus: Is Kevin Alcantara going to get a real shot this year?
Justin Mason
12:54
I think the Cubs are trading Hoerner and Shaw will move to second. Buy low right now on him if you can. I do not think Alcantara gets a real shot

Justin Mason
12:54
Anderson if you are in a rebuild or not competing. Imai if you are

I feel like I'm going to be the guy who's simply out on Ben Rice this year. I get the statcast data, but he's being drafted like he is an elite C, not he has a chance to be.
Justin Mason

650-700 PAs hitting third for the yankees is too good to pass up on
obvouisly the Yankees could do something to change that, but we love non-catching catcher
batsnballs, no glove pls
12:55
Judge leading off for the Yankees this year?
Justin Mason
12:56
I dont think so

Will Royce Lewis finally put a healthy (and decent!) season together and does the late season steals breakout continue in 2026?
Justin Mason
12:56
I have a hard time believing he will but you know I will be a buyer at the price to wishcast it
Shawn miller
12:56
over under basallo bombs 27?
Justin Mason
12:56
Under, but close
liquid courage

Is Devers the backup 3b if chapman goes down?  how does a bosox fan feel about trading away devers now?
Justin Mason
12:57
No, I think Devers days at third are over. I think most Red Sox fans are pretty upset by it especially after Bregman left

For dynasty league, 24 teams, would you take Samuel Basallo, Luke Keaschall or Chase Burns? Rebuilding team.
Justin Mason
12:57
Basallo

For the old heads who’ve been playing for a while and have really good institutional knowledge about the player pool: how deep of a dive would you suggest in prep before you get to diminishing returns?
Justin Mason
12:58
Thats a very good question. As someone who spends way too much time digging, I bet after two months of deep diving there isnt a ton you are going to learn. That being said, it only takes one gem to make it worth it and you never know when you will find that
Draft Prep

Trying to get my podcast schedules in one place, what days is Sleeper and the Bust coming out from now through Opening Day? Is it going to be the usual Sunday release?
Justin Mason
1:00
We will definitely go every Sunday, Thursday and Friday. Will add Monday or Tuesday very soon as well. I would love to go daily at some point, but I don't know if its in the cards
Rickey

Any upside for Jung Hoo Lee? Have him at $12 in an ottoneu league. He was such a drag for most of last year.
Justin Mason
1:00
I dont think so
