...is there any chance Naylor rebounds in the second half or did playing half his games in Seattle finally catch-up to him in a way that it didn't after the trade last year?!
Justin Mason
12:23
I do not think he has a power surge, so he likely falls short of 20 bombs, but otherwise he will be fine. He already has 18 SBs and his xBA is .270
David Chenok

Choose 1, ROS: Austin Riley, Alex Bohm, Cracked Bat
Justin Mason

Riley, Cracked Bat, Bohm.

will Mangum continue to get ABs when O. Cruz returns?
Justin Mason
12:24
They will find ways to get him in the lineup, but he has to hit to keep them and that becomes more difficult once Cruz returns and if they make any deadline deals.

NL-only. I need starting pitching, and Skenes, Logan Webb and Chase Burns are available in trade. Unfortunately, they each have been bad in the last 31 days, though Skenes’ outing yesterday was very good. Are these guys all ok ROS? Who will be best, in which order please?
Justin Mason
12:26
Seeing Skenes' velo being down is scaring me a little so if I am buying one of these guys right now its. Webb. Before the Colorado start, he was pitching amazingly and I think he will be fine.

Any juice left with Ginn or is he not even a team streamer any more? AL Only so replacing with save spec.
Justin Mason
12:26
yeah, I dont trust him at all in Sac

Christian Scott flirts with being dominant, but his efficiency isn’t quite there.  Do you expect him to improve in that regard as the seasons continues?  Thanks!
Justin Mason
12:28
He should get better as the season goes on, but this is what we see from guys that come back from TJ. They struggle with command and control and there consistency. I think he will continue to struggle, but I am a buyer for 2027.

You had mild interest in Noah Schultz once. Did he show anything in the solid start yesterday or was that just the Kurtz-less A"s?
Justin Mason
12:29
Until he figures out the control issues, he will be a guy that tantalizes you with the upside but disappoints start to start. I want to buy because the upside is so massive, but he will likely hurt you more than he helps.

feel like he's a constant tease...anything to see with Josh Lowe?  power/speed combo enticing but seems to fade away as soon as you pick him up
Justin Mason
12:29
nah, nothing to see here.
Whaleman

EValez Pitt.  Even with his high strikeout rate he continues to mash.  What happens next?
Justin Mason
12:30
He is going to eventually swing his way back to the minors. The contact rates are truly abysmal, but it will be fun to watch until it falls apart.

rank the following 2B RoS: Nico, Bazanna & Keaschall
Justin Mason
12:31
thats the order

14 tm 6x6 h2h, is Jazz worth a gamble on RoS, is Bradish and Bazanna a fair exchange or am I still short?
Justin Mason
12:31
I think yhou are still short, but Id try.

Thanks for the chat, Justin! For the second half, are you inclined to stick with struggling vets like Suarez and Adames or would you look to replace with youth like Eldridge and Bazanna/Mead? 11 team mixed, thanks!
Justin Mason
12:32
I think I am sticking with Suarez. We have seen his ability to turn things around in an instant and salavage a season before. I am fine dropping Adames for Mead or Eldridge.

thinking of selling yordan as i think a injury is coming (pains me to say). in a 12 team h2h cats league, whats a good package to target?
Justin Mason
12:33
If you are selling Yordan, I want a top 10 pitcher or hitter back. I know the injury risk is scary but so is seeing his stats on another team
honestly, it needs to be top 5

In your opinion, what current closers get moved at the deadline and who fills the spot?
Justin Mason
12:36
Chapman - replaced by Whitlock
Jansen and Finnegan - replaced by ?
Lange - replaced by Erceg
Mike B
12:36
most people are aware that max meyer probably is going to get slowed / shut down as he reaches new innings high. who is realistic to target in a trade for him
Justin Mason
12:36
Id look for a top 50 hitter.
Kevin

I'm seriously hovering over the drop button for Raleigh. Just an absolute disaster. Can you talk me out of it?
Justin Mason
12:37
I think he could turn it around, but there is nothing in the numbers to suggest he will. There has to be an injury or something going on. I think he is droppable

is Vaughn a wasting asset in MIL?  too many mouths to feed.  great for team success.  bad for fantasy.
