yes

Is there serious reason for concern about Tyler Soderstrom? He hasn’t exactly been bad but has been very pedestrian, and maybe that might be worth benching for fresh new blood (comparison: Ryan O’Hearn who is still on the waiver wire in my league) in shallower formats? Probably not 12/15 though
Justin Mason
12:19
underlying numbers are ok. He will be fine as things begin to heat up in Sac
Veteran character actor Tom Dollander
12:19
Is Dollander a team streamer or just a streamer streamer? I want to hold onto him for his next start @ PIT but can he be trusted at Coors?
Justin Mason
12:19
I dont trust anyone at Coors unless they are a stud
Ron

Need Torres replacement- Gelof or Grissom?
Justin Mason

Gelof

I know it's early and things can tun around buuut, what's 1 preseason pick you made that's looking like a miss and what's 1 that's making you look like a wizard?
Justin Mason

Corey Seager just looks a bit slower this year. Im worried about his lack of in-zone contact. Parker Messick was my dude and I am so glad to see him break out
Dodger doldrums
12:21
Any observations on the Ohtani slump? He can't even hit a 94 mph fastball right down the chute these days. Bat speed is way down from 93rd percentile to 82nd. He's supposed to be the Arm & Hammer. So far, it's just the arm. I'm not sure batting him leadoff anymore is the right call.
Justin Mason
12:21
He will be fine.
my Schwarber Raleigh Burns

is this too much for a fantasy team name?
Justin Mason
12:21
its great
point awarded
Yogi

Justin. In need of a 2B. Keaschall not coming through. Traded for Donovan. Nothing. Who you like better? Can pick up I Vargas, Bazzano, Antonelli, Gelof?
Justin Mason
12:21
Bazzana
Zack Attack
12:21
Zack Gelof or Troy Johnston as OF5 in an OBP roto league?
Justin Mason
12:21
Johnston
Struggles of the mind
12:22
How much do you buy into narratives about specific lineup idiosyncrasies affecting play (big example: Juan Soto has cratered since moving to the leadoff spot for some reason) vs how much is just noise
Justin Mason
12:22
I think its mostly just noise
Jo Jo Adell your manager is calling
12:22
Can trade Adell for one of Luzardo, Eovaldi, or Framber. Which one do I pick, or none of the above? Thanks!!
Justin Mason
12:22
None. I love Adell
Braves sell high
12:22
How much of ATL is sell high right now? I do not trust any of the production from Riley, Albies, Harris, Dubon based on underlying metrics + past 2 years of data, and even Matt Olson could easily regress to merely a very good 1B so a sell high might make sense there too. Conversely, any teams seem ripe with buy-low candidates?
Justin Mason
12:23
I had Albies as a sell high in my weekly piece this week. Harris for sure too. If I can  still buy in on the Phillies I would. I know the Mets are a mess, but they are too talented to be this bad

Do you think Logan Henderson gets a long look? Might require someone like Sproat to be pushed out of the rotation.
Justin Mason
12:24
Sproat needs to be sent down IMO. Henderson deserves to keep his job.
Christina
12:24
Fairbanks is coming back more quickly from the nerve issues than last time, but given the history, should I be looking to sell as soon as he gets back in the Save column? I would only have Erceg for those if I move the former
Justin Mason
12:24
Unless I am getting a closer back, I probably roll with him.
12-team 20-keeper OPS roto
12:24
How long until Jax holds any value for QS or SVHD?
Justin Mason
12:24
itll be a while
if at all

Barger might have gone 0/3 in his re-debut but at least he tore his elbow throwing a guy out!
Justin Mason
12:25
brutal this guy got hurt. He is going to be a "what if" guy

In a shallow mixed I have a surplus of corner bats and closers, and desperately need a 2B & OF, preferably with power + avg.  Unfortunately the corner bat garnering the most interest is Okamoto, who in the last few weeks has started scorching the baseball while lowering his K%.
Justin Mason
12:25
I love Okamoto, but if I had to move him to address other needs, I am ok doing that
Vince

Hi! 12-tm, H2H, category … Is Imai worth holding over Nelson and Burrows on waiver wire? Is Teoscar a drop w Cortes, Bleday, Marsh on waiver wire? Thanks
Justin Mason
12:26
Imai scares the crap out of me. I would rather have Nelson. Im holding Teoscar over those options.
