Roupp is who he is, a guy that struggles with consistency when his mechanics are off and the arm slot raises from his optimal path. I think we are going to see great starts mixed with bad ones.

will phantom IL stints count against the salary floor?
Justin Mason
12:47

expect D Guzman to stay w/LAA ROS?  decent power + speed?
Justin Mason
12:49
There is definitely speed, but the hit tool is inquestion and there is not a ton of power in the bat. Dont be fooled by the PCL power numbers. I think he goes back down once the Angels are healthy.

Jared Young (NYM) going to continue cleanup vs RHP ROS?  I know Lindor is coming back and he could move down to 5th?
Justin Mason
12:50
I think once the Mets get healthy, Young moves down the lineup some.

Manaea or B Young ROS?
Justin Mason
12:50
Young

How do you evaluate Whisenhunt at this point as the Giants seem to have no interest in giving him an extended look despite heading for a complete tear down and months of trotting out Houser and Mahle?
Justin Mason
12:52
I think he will be up once the Giants start selling in the next month to six weeks. I havent seen reports of how he looks in the minors, but the numbers are pretty good.

Need to drop SP in redraft - Melton or Prielipp?
Justin Mason
12:52
Melton. Probably losing his job soon.

Would you drop any of C.Schmitt/Bleday/Seiya for Gelof, Jacob Wilson or Horwitz? Amazing Matchups for the latter group, but I don't know if any are upgrades long term. Do I stream matchups here or hold my short-term studs and struggling star?
Justin Mason
12:52
I am probably holding these guys
showbusiness77
12:53
Great win context and they're all good, but too many Yankees SPs means I never have a natural pitcher stack for Saturday or Sunday. Give me a Hold/Sell/Drop please on Cole/Rodon/Schlitter/Warren?
Justin Mason
12:53
Hold on all except Cole. I think he will be fine for 2027, but I worry about his consistency coming off of TJ  with command and control.

How are you feeling about Rodon so far? Strikeouts okay, but the walks are rough. Post-surgery command thing? Where would you rank him ROS?
Justin Mason
12:55
Stuff has been good, but the struggles with control are a bit concerning. They will lead to some blow up starts down the stretch if he cant find the zone consistently.

stay away from JR Ritchie or roll the dice?
Justin Mason
12:55
I am ok rolling the dice against my giants.
AU86

Will Lindor have Lindor-like 2H?  or is this lost season?
Justin Mason
12:55
I am hoping for a Lindor like second half, but I am biased since I have been stashing him for the entire season.
AU86
12:55
drop Weaver for Vest?  Saves+Holds format
Justin Mason
12:56
sure

Do you have any hope for Trea Turner and Mookie Betts to turn it around?
Justin Mason
12:57
I thought I was going to say of course, but man their underlying numbers recently are still bad. I think I might say no here.
Jon Tayler
12:58
Stick with Carlos Cortes in a 12T roto or drop for one of Ewing, Mead, Paredes, Castro or Bolte?
Justin Mason
12:58
Give me Ewing
wrote him up in the Roto Riteup today
Scotty G

I picked up Javier Assad in a 14-team QS league for a home start against the Rockies this week. Do you think he'll stick in the rotation and is he worth holding onto longer than this week?
Justin Mason
12:58
I think he probably loses his job once people get healthy, but I am riding with him in the short term
Tony
12:58
I have a rebuilding Scoresheet team. I have been offered Gage Jump for Eovaldi. Should I take that, or hold on for a better return?
Justin Mason
12:58
I want a little better return

Is there more in the tank for Salvy? He’s been brutal to roster.
Justin Mason
12:59
I think he will turn it around. A really low babip for him doing a lot of the heavy lifting here.

Shallow h2h points: how long do we hold onto Kyle Tucker?
Justin Mason
12:59
we keep holding!

Does SF have a closer by committee or is someone taking the lead ROS?
