My Drift

Hi Justin, which catcher would you rather roster in a 1 C 12 team roto league F Alvarez or Jeffers?
Justin Mason
12:00
Alvarez. Upside is just too good and with it being a 12-team 1C, there is replacement value when he gets hurt.

is Cags working with KC coaches to increase his LA every day?  When is it time to say enough is enough and move on?
Justin Mason
12:01
I still believe in the talent, but in a shallow league, you can probably move on.
TJ

Rank the following SP now and RoS , 14 tm 6x6 h2h where pitching categories are: W, WHIP, QS, ERA, K & SV/HLD -> M. Meyer, N. Schultz, M. Gore & M. King
Justin Mason
12:02
King, Meyer, Schultz, Gore
John

Thanks for taking my question.  Do you think what Okamoto is doing will continue?  And how do you see him moving forward?
Justin Mason
12:02
Saw something that showed that he moved back in the box and a little closer to the plate. This has helped him with breaking pitches which was what was hurting him early in the season. I am buying it.
South Sider

Andrew Vaughn returns today. Do you see him immediately getting full-time ABs? And will he still play every day when Yelich and Chourio return?
Justin Mason
12:03
I think he gets them initially, but once the team is healthy, it will come down to production.

How worried are you about Ketel Marte and Kyle Tucker? Is it time yet to update preseason projections?
Justin Mason
12:04
Not worried on either. Definitely not on Marte who's just had terrible BABIP luck and has a .300 xBA.

A. Riley for M. King & M. Meyer was offered for me, I countered with M. King and M. Gore for A. Riley, am I being too greedy and should take the 1st offer, I think Riley can bounce back, my current #B is Paredes, Offensive categories are: TB, OBP, HR, SB, R & RBI
Justin Mason
12:06
I would prefer the King and Gore one personally
Boyd Wonder
12:06
Matt Boyd was dropped in my 12T roto; worth picking up at the expense of Conor Prielipp? I could also cut one of Garrett Mitchell, Bryson Stott or Travis Bazzana
Justin Mason
12:06
I would cut Mitchell instead.
Rob A
12:06
Hanging on to Jose Berrios like it’s 2021 and I’m Anthony Fauci. SP is at a premium in my 15 team mixed pts so the best alternatives would be Jake Bennett, J.T. Ginn or maybe Braxton Garrett. Or a speculative starter like Ian Seymour or Ben Brown. Who ya got?
Justin Mason
12:06
Give me Garrett or Seymour
Schilling & Pence
12:07
I have both Rutschman and Jensen in a 1C league.  Who do you like better ROS?  Or is it just matchups based?
Justin Mason
12:07
Probably matchups but I lean Rutschman here
Bobert
12:07
Otto Lopez, can he keep this up all year?  Thanks!
Justin Mason
12:08
He won't keep this up all year, but a lighter version of it, I could definitely see. The underlying skills are fantastic and there is definitely real improvement in the profile.
Mike D
12:09
NL only, have the roster spot, need OF help and picked up Noveli Marte.  Is his call up dependent on Bleday's peformance? Think he gets the call anytime soon?
Justin Mason
12:10
I think he needs an injury or someone to fall off. The problem is Friedl has been better and Bleday is also hitting well.
Guest

Any faith that Colt Keith can turn his elite batted ball data into actual power production?
Justin Mason
12:10
I am still a believer, but I always have been
TJ
12:10
14 tm 6x6 with a 7 start max and SV + HLDS being one of categories, Is Schultz for Palencia a good trade with Schultz being my # 8 starter and my current RP is a duo of Munoz and Scott ?
Justin Mason
12:10
yeah, I think that is fine as long as it's not a dynasty league.
Catch a Catcher
12:10
Lost Agustin Ramirez in my 12 team roto league and am wondering who to replace him with. I'm streaming Francisco Alvarez in Coors to start the week but I've also got Jeffers, Wells, Kelly, Basallo and Yainer Diaz available. Any preference out of that group or should I just stream the hot hand/best matchup?
Justin Mason
12:10
I'd stream Alvarez this week and then pivot to the hot hand or Basallo.
Oddball Herrera
12:11
I am increasingly of the opinion that the only thing standing between Kade Anderson and a promotion is opportunity.  He has somehow outdone Strasburg's annihilation of the minors
Justin Mason
12:11
Well, they have the rotation depth to let him develop, but I agree that he is going to be up at some point this year.
South Sider
12:11
Standard 5x5 12-team H2H redraft league, would you drop either or both Luis Castillo/Andrew Painter for any of these available options? Ryne Nelson, Matz, Burrows, May
Justin Mason
12:11
I am ok dropping Castillo for Nelson
TJ
12:12
How much regression is Muncy in for? I am considering trading for him, I know he can't keep up this pace, my current 3B is Paredes, Is the upgrade worth a SP such as Meyer or Schultz ?
Justin Mason
12:13
There will be some, but I don't think a ton. He has been a much better hitter since getting the corrective eye surgery last year. Health is the only real issue with Muncy. I am ok using Schultz in a redraft to go get muncy
Cam you dig it
12:13
Hi Justin.  Is Cam Smith a hold in 12 team roto?  He has shown some signs of life
Justin Mason
12:14
I think it's just been some positive regression. The underlying skills are pretty good and there is a ton of upside. Maybe time to buy.

Looking for some thump--Tork, Jac, or Rumfield and then adding someone for R's and BA-Kwan, Arrez, Grisham, or Stott. This is for 10t h2h cat. Yahoo league. Thank you
