Aranda the World in 80 Days

12:38

Who do you prefer of Aranda, Contreras, Burleson or Torkelson at 1B in an OBP league?

Justin Mason

12:38

Contreras

Wood

12:38

Any hope for Bobby Miller or is he a drop in dynasty leagues?

Justin Mason

12:38

yeah, you can drop him

Trade advice

12:39

12 Team AL-Only Keeper 5x5 roto, 260 budget: $5 Grisham and Noah Schultz (taxi squad) for Shane Smith $6 and faab. There's risk on both sides here, but seems even, no?

Justin Mason

12:39

that feels even

Jason

12:39

Gunnar, Tucker, Carroll, Tatis, or Vlad in 12tm 5x5 OBP ?

Justin Mason

12:39

Tucker

Ben

12 team H2H, 10 keeper league. Too much risk to keep Bryce Miller? Other options are Ian Happ, Steele, Reynaldo. Or trying to trade for a Pepiot, Altuve

Justin Mason

12:39

trade for Pepiot

im in a dynasty league and my pitching staff is filled with post-prospect mediocrity. How would you rank Gore, Taj Bradley, Mize, Singer, and Pfaadt? Which, if any, could you see separating from the group

Justin Mason

12:40

Gore, Singer, Mize, Pfaadt, Bradley

Okay, niche question time. I'm in a h2h 30-team AL/NL only league, winner of each league plays the other in a world series. 7x7 with QS OBP SLG SVHD K/9 and K/BB. It's insane and fun. 5-9 keepers, keep forever. Have to chose between Jakob Marsee and Bryan Reynolds as my last guy in NL. Rest of the offense is Will Smith, Machado, Dansby, and Shohei. They're pretty close in pretty much every standard ranking, but auction calc with my settings and The Bat X has Reynolds OF17 and Marsee OF34. Do you think the difference between them is that big? Am I buying too deep into Marsee's small sample and Reynolds' down year if I keep Marsee?

Justin Mason

12:41

I am buying into Marsee and I think the projection systems are missing the gains he made in the hit tool last year, so I go him

Is there any SP prospect out there, that could pull a Woo (Great Grimm character), go from good but unheralded prospect to top SP? Follow-up, what qualities that Woo has do you think drove this somewhat under the radar success?

Justin Mason

12:42

Honestly, my prospect knowledge isn't good enough to answer this question.

I think for Woo, it was a combination of injury issues and lack of secondary stuff coming up that kept him under the radar. As he developed, he was able to build off of the good fastball

Shane Smith

12:42

Do we believe in the underlying metrics (suggesting he's close to / is what he is, or do we think there's more here to unlock?

Justin Mason

12:43

I think what we saw last year is who he is.

Lord Thunder

12:43

How many games does productive, but oft-injured Max Muncy (LAD) play this season?

Justin Mason

12:43

140

need more questions!!!

Lord Thunder

12:44

By the end of the regular season, will Justin Martinez be closing games for Arizona?

Justin Mason

12:44

I wouldnt count on it. Too unpredictable coming back from injury

Edwin Uceta

12:46

Keep in al only saves plus holds at $3? How worried are we about the murky tampa bullpen in SOLDs leagues?

Justin Mason

12:46

I am more worried about the shoulder

Hip hip Jorge

12:47

What feels like a fair price for Jorge Polanco in an auction draft

Justin Mason

12:47

depends on the format and depth of league

5x5 roto 12 team where each pick can be retained 3 rds higher the following year - 38 rds. I need to rank these young OFs for the next 5 years. Benge>Carson Benge>Emm Rodrg>Cam Smith>Dyl Beavers>Ry Waldschmidt>Jacob Melton>Zach Cole>Veen>ECart.

12:47

Sorry for hitting send too quickly on the young OF question. What would you change?

Justin Mason

12:48

Cam Smith, Beavers, Rodriguez, Waldenschmidt, Benge, Metlon, Cole,

Wu Tang Killer Albies

12:49

Is Albies too risky a play at 2B in a 12-team OBP league?

Justin Mason

12:49

no, but just be ready to move on quickly in a 12

Congrats on your hamate holding up throughout this busy season! Did you take any precautions, like preemptively wearing a wrist sleeve, maybe asking Jen to handle all of the recent driving (or skip the "10 and 2" and steer one-handed?

Justin Mason

12:49
