depends on the level of your closer. If it's a shakier one, I would handcuff, but more often than not, I go for the $1-3 guys
Sally
12:16
Is Aranda going to hit every day and become Vinnie P?
Justin Mason
12:17
I think he will play everyday, but I dont think he has Vinny P's upside.
Jason
12:17
Where would you draft Schwarber in a 5x5 roto with OBP instead of AVG? Does he move into top 10?
Justin Mason
12:17
yeah, he's top 10 in OBP
Willie Pops Stargell
12:17
Is there a pitcher who will probably not make the opening day roster that you think might be worth a flier, like Ben Brown, Carson Whisenhunt, Hayden Birdsong, Khal Stephan, etc.
Justin Mason
12:17
Ian Seymour and Connelly Early
Ken

Thanks for the chat Justin. Keeper question for 10-team 5x5. Keep 8 for up to five years. I can keep three of these four options, all at cheap round slots: Ragans for two more years, Rooker for three, deGrom for three, Agustin Ramirez for four. Looking to repeat as champ. Leaning toward dropping deGrom and cashing in on him. My other five are Soto/Caminero/Woo/Turang/Kurtz.
Justin Mason
12:18
Rooker, Ragans and Degrom

Who are some guys that standout to you in a 5x5 with OBP instead of avg league?
Justin Mason
12:20
I am looking for guys with big avg/obp splits. The ones that are undervalued by people used to average leagues or that have a better floor because of the format. Schwarber, Wood, Trout, Grisham, Happ, Anthony, Ozuna
Matt

12 team roto dynasty...I had this question queued up, but with Melton news, maybe it answers itself....I have Zebby, Messick and Melton as cheap holdovers with a very solid rotation of SPs. I should probably only keep 2 of those 3 as fringe guys....Melton has to go, right?
Justin Mason
12:21
yeah, melton goes
Love Messick and Zebby though
two of my more drafted guys this year
2B or Bust
12:22
Better 2B strategy in an auction league with keepers (so no Turang or Maikel): bid big on one of the stars (Marte or Jazz) or go cheaper and try to ride out the season with someone like Hoerner, Altuve Polanco or Albies?
Justin Mason
12:22
So I have been going with Hoerner a lot or waiting and just taking one of the cheap options like Baty or Keith.
Corey Seager's Silver Bullet Band
12:22
Targeting Corey Seager in an auction league but I want to make sure I have a viable backup for his inevitable IL trip, who do you like best as a handcuff? Thinking Edwards or Stott for SB
Justin Mason
12:23
Edwards out of those two.
More Like Turd Base
12:23
Pick one at 3B in an OBP roto league: Machado or Riley
Justin Mason
12:23
MAchado
Juan Thos

How many games do you think will be canceled next year due to the lockout?
Justin Mason

Broken bat

Have you noticed what Abel for Twins has done following his Sept 25 outings… hasn’t walked a batter in 6 innings, struck out 11.:
Justin Mason
12:23
I am really intrigued by him. I hope they give him a shot in the rotation
Jason
12:23
Where are you taking Carroll amongst OF with everything g we
Justin Mason
12:24
I am still taking him fifth or sixth
Lord Thunder
12:24
Will Mark Vientos be on the Mets' MLB roster at the end of the regular season?
Justin Mason
12:24
I dont think so
Willie Pops Stargell
12:24
Thanks so much for answering my questions!  Is there any reclamation SP project that is not a waste of a pick, from the batch of Buehler, Marquez, Urquidy, Sandoval, Fedde, Kolek, or Walker?
Justin Mason
12:24
not really
You down with MPE?
12:25
Please rank these MI/CI eligible players for an OBP league? Keith, Donovan, Durbin, Castro, J Smith, Correa
Justin Mason
12:25
Keith, Durbin, Donovan, Castro, Correa, Smith
Willie Pops Stargell
12:25
Do you guys keep stats on chats - most questions answered per minute?  Do you think that you could be aided by AI or is it a strictly Dwight Schrute vs. DM Infinity or John Henryesque battle to the death?
Justin Mason
12:26
I really should because I do think I answer more questions per chat than most lol. I rally try to get through them. I don't like AI personally lol
Point awarded!
Yuniesky Betancourt
