You guys had Soroka as a lock on the two-start podcast. 12-team, pretty deep. Any fear about the Dodgers being the first team in that two-start? It makes me nervous. Framber v. Seattle or Brown @ SF are the other choices.
Justin Mason
12:01
I am definitely a little nervous about it. He probably should be i the "should start" category. I think I am still rolling with him here.

NL only...start Mead or Bohm at 3B this week?
Justin Mason
12:01
Mead

Justin - thanks for all of the great work you do! I dropped Matt McLain in 12tm 5x5 and picked up Jacob Gonzalez. Good idea, bad idea, or a whole lot of nothing?
Justin Mason
12:02
Probably a whole lot of nothing, but Gonzalez has made a decent amount of contact and was barrelling the ball in AAA, so it isnt a terrible gamble

What do we make of Mlodzinski’s last news?
Justin Mason
12:03
I think he's likely to be traded or DFA'd this week.

I don't know why everyone gets so worked up about this Judge fella.  He's not even the best hitter on his own team.
Justin Mason
12:03
point awarded

Isaac Paredes feels like such an all or nothing player. The projections still optimistic. Should we remain patient or play hot hands like Mead?
Justin Mason
12:04
I am rolling with Mead right now. I have always been a Mead guy. He just needed a team that was ok with his poor defense.

14 tm, 6x6 h2h where offense categories are TB, HR, RBI, R, SB & OBP ... I am currently running out Riley at 3B ... was offered Muncy in exchange for Meyer ... am I overvaluing my SP as usual in not making this move and giving Riley more leash, my current staff is Skenes, Cole, Eovaldi, Meyer, Bradish with Ragans, Greene & E. PErez on IL
Justin Mason
12:05
I am taking this deal. As much as I love Meyer, Muncy is a great return.
Miguel D

NL only...Uribe CL 2 and worried now. Sccop up Keaton Winn or E Pagan as potential long term solution?
Justin Mason
12:05
I think Uribe will get the job back. I think he is just being punished for what he did.

Is Eldridge for Hamilton or Marsee fair? He needs SB I could use a little more power. Fair for this year? For next year? NL 5x5.
Justin Mason
12:06
I would do either. I think We are starting to see something with Eldridge
GT

14 tm 6x6 h2h where offense categories are TB, OBP, HR, RBI, R & SB ... I suffer from over valuing my players, am looking to buy low on Soderstrom, other owner asked for Delauter in exchange, is this an easy yes or should I just keep DeLauter?
Justin Mason
12:08
I dont know that it is an easy yes, but I think it is a yes

How many games does Vaughn play with a full 7 games v RHP?
Justin Mason
12:09
probably 3-4
Aaron

Volpe has been showing a bit more juice as of late but his statcast metrics arent pretty. Is there anything here or is it just a hotstreak?
Justin Mason
12:09
I think it is just a hot streak
Matt Damon
12:09
MATT. DAMON.
Justin Mason

HE IS BACK!
Give it to me straight....

Dynasty 5x5 h2h roto, $3 increases per yr....12 man farms...I gave up Bubba Chandler $1 and JoJo Parker (farm) for Riley O'Brien $1.  I'm very confident in my pitching depth, but only have Baker for saves currently, with Helsley returning soon (at least until his next IL trip).  Did I give up too much upside for a 31 yr old reliever, or will O'Brien hold the job this year plus at least one more and make me feel okayish about it?  Thank as always for all of the great content!
Justin Mason
12:11
I think you probably gave up a little too much, but I do think you should get enough out of O'Brien to not completely hate yourself for it. I just hope Parker doesnt turn into a star because I traded him away in a league too lol
Austin Riley
12:11
Are projections overrating me? Looks like a pretty clear pattern of decline over the last few years, but projections are still holding out at around a 110 wRC+
Justin Mason
12:13
I think the could be in the power department a little. we have seen drops in average exit velo, barrel %, and hard hit % this year without substantial gains in contact. I dont think he is falling off a cliff, but maybe wont rebound to what he was back in his 22, 23 seasons
Aaron
12:13
Whats been your initial take on Dylan Crews? Is he showing enough under the hood to warrant roster consideration on 12 teamers?
Justin Mason
12:14
Making a lot of contact and hitting the ball hard. Isn't lifting enough which has been an issue throughout his career. should be a better version of what we have seen from him before, but not a star
so viable in a 12 teamer but not a must
TG
12:15
Sheehan for E. Suarez ? Who says no, 6x6 h2h where team with Suarez has possibly worst pitching staff in league and team with Sheehan has top 5 staff and is missing pop in lineup
Justin Mason
12:15
seem fair
Mr. Fister
12:15
Ewing or Angel Martinez (and hope he's good to go Tuesday)? 5x5 h2h roto.
Justin Mason
12:15
MArtinez if healthy
Pete

It looks like 2-start weeks for Nola, Prielipp and Sandlin.  If you had to start two and sit one, who would ne out? Sandlin makes me nervous with all the BB in the minors, and the fact that he only went 3 or 4 innings down there per start.  Sure, he went 6 against MIN last time, but that was only on 61 pitches.  Thanks!
Justin Mason
12:16
I think I am sitting Nola, but I understand the fear of Sandlin. He can really struggle with control and I dont know how deep they let him go. If wins are important, Nola is probably the better bet in Philly.
