NL only keeper roto league. $270 salary cap. Opportunity up turn an unkeepable Francisco Alvarez plus Victor Scott ii for a $2 soroka. I'm out of it so trying to build for next year. There's other pieces to make the rosters work but that's the basic deal. Thoughts?
Justin Mason
12:16
I feel like I want a better keeper than an injury prone pitcher that might not even be in the NL next year (mutual option.) The price is good, but chances are he isnt even eligible for NL leagues next year.

Please randROS NL 5x5 Waldschmidt, Chapman, RObert? Will Waldschmidt be anything next year.
Justin Mason
12:17
Chapman, Waldschmidt, Robert. I think Waldschmidt profiles as a really good accumulator than a star, but he should have good value in 2027

In Nunez a one year wonder or can I expect the same next yeaR?
Justin Mason
12:18
I think you can expect something similar to this year.

Justin Mason

Give me heim for now but if he is traded at the deadline, pivot to Mack

Jordan Romano is on pace to finish in the top 20 in saves....after being DFA'd.....there are few things more maddening than save-hunting!
Justin Mason
12:18
Saves will drive you crazy
point awarded!

I'm in a Sv/HD league, and I need some Sv/HDs. I have Morejon, who has is doing great in every category except Holds...Only 6 in 24 appearances for me. How do you judge Middle Relievers and when do you move on for a worse pitcher with a better hold rate? Cleavenger, Slaten, and Soriano are on the wire
Justin Mason
12:19
If you think saves are maddening, holds are even worse. I tend to just stream whoever has the best hold rate over the last 30 days or so and move on when I feel like its dried up. They are so hard to predict.

10TM 5x5 - drop Carson Benge for Ty France?
Justin Mason

nah

Can/will Pedro Ramirez from CHC be a regular in this cubs lineup?
Justin Mason
12:21
I think he can, but I would be surprised if he will. He has the ability to play all over the place and accumulate, but I assume the Cubs will block him off at the deadline.

What do you see Milwaukee doing in the next week on the trade front? If they are trading youngsters who is/are mot likely to go so they can get what they want?
Justin Mason
12:23
they supposedly want to add at the deadline, but are reluctant to take on a lot of money. I would look for them to add some guys on expiring deals in the outfield or maybe a starter. Could see Robbie Ray there. I dont think they will worry too much about the prospect they will need to move because they are loaded in the minors and wont likely trade their top three guys.

Finally got a trade to go through.  In a 10 team QS/OBP league, Cris Sanchez, Nasim, and Mason Miller for Soto (the day before he goes on the IL of course), Riley Greene, and Whitlock.  Which side do you like ROS?
Justin Mason
12:24
I like the Soto side once he is back
Vogt your conscience

My outfield is ridiculous and one of these guys needs to ride the bench when the lineup is full: Wood, Acuna, Langford, Chourio, Walker. Who sits?
Justin Mason
12:24
I guess its Langford

Still bullish on a 2nd half bull market run by Julio? His numbers look eerily similar to Mead’s but it took Julio 90 more ABs to get there.
Justin Mason
12:25
yeah, Julio usually turns it up a notch in the second half. I think he will beast out again.

Sal Stewart is a top (blank) 1B ROS this year and next year? 12 team 5x5 roto. Side note - I love him and he's only 22!
Justin Mason
12:25

Thanks, Justin! You like Kwan or Altuve ROS? (I'm leaning Kwan for needs in AVG and SB...

Hi Justin. 12tm, 7x7 Roto, Keeper. I’ve been in 1st all year, and just slipped into 2nd yesterday. I need HR, RBI, SB, QS, and ratios. Thinking of offering my James Wood (only surefire keeper), M. Busch, I. Happ, J. Soriano for their M. Olson, R. Acuna, M. Machado, and G. Kirby. Am I crazy for shipping Wood away as the #1 fantasy player, with those offensive categories in need?
Justin Mason
12:27
I would have a hard time trading him away unless I was absolutely getting a ton back, but this is a ton back and I am a believer in going all-in for a championship

Cedanne Rafaela or Ketel Marte? It’s a 12 team 5x5 head to head with two utility. Team acquiring Ketel would have to move back from round 9 to round 17 in next years draft, but is looking at the playoffs.
Justin Mason
12:27
Ketel

What is your take on Mariners Hancock trade availability?  Kade move to the show? Relatively soon?
Justin Mason
12:28
I think there is a chance Kade is up but probably as a reliever not a starter. I dont think they want to push him and risk hurting him before he is completely ready. The Hancock rumors have more to do with having one too many starters and no one wanting Castillo. Its a nice sell high on Hancock

Eovaldi or Hancock ROS? All things being equal?
Justin Mason

Eovaldi
