is there any reason to hold onto Robbie Ray? He has @Col and @LAD.
Justin Mason
12:23
no

I recently picked up Bandura and Amador, do you see them as contributors next year?
Justin Mason
12:24
I think Amador can for sure. He seems to be getting the run at second base and he is the perfect fit as an accumulator there in that park. Bandura is org depth.

Twin sibs (especially same gender) should have very different names imo
Justin Mason
12:24
right?! I keep telling Josh he needs to change his name but after 41 years, I dont think he will
Point awaded
Made it through all the questions! Lets keep it going!
Eugenio Velez

Instead of Trading Block we should have Unavailable Block
Justin Mason
12:26
I like this idea! I hate having to tell everyone in my league that there is no chance I am trading x player. Often I will put something in the memo section if there is one.

How many more times do you think Michael Wacha keeps churning out QS-loaded seasons? He was a quiet rotation asset this year in particular for the most part.
Justin Mason
12:27
He just keeps doing it and clearly the Royals believe he can considering they didnt move him at the deadline. I will continue to buy because the price is always too cheap

just lost in the semis of my playoffs, but wanted to thank you for all of your advice over the course of this season!
Justin Mason
12:27
Bummer! Thank you for coming in and being a part of the chat all year!

G Torres benched in favor of younger talent ROS?
G Torres or McLain ROS?
Justin Mason
12:28
Seems like they want to see what they have in other guys so I will go McLain here

Have you ever looked back at suggestions you make in the chat to see if they turned out or not? If so and your predictions are more often correct than not, are you available to be kept on retainer for predraft consultations? Actually if you are. more wrong than right, that still could be heklpful.
Justin Mason

So I dont go through the chats just because there are so many of them, but I do a lot of offseason articles looking at where I went wrong and were I was right. I break down each individual team and my Bold predictions from the beginning of the season. I dont worry as much about individual players unless there was a massive skill change, but I look at my processes and see if there were flaws in my thinking. I think its an important exercise to get better as a player and analyst and I dont' shy away from looking where I made mistakes publicly.

Expect Rafaela back on Tues 9/15?  Any setbacks that you are aware of?
Justin Mason
12:31
sounds like he wont be back by then, but aiming for a weekend return.

Finally going to drop Colson Montgomery.  Need a SS for the championship (OBP league).  Uninspiring choices. Tovar with his week in COL, Sanoja, Bogaerts with 4 games in COL, Hoerner, Pratt?  Just keep Colson? Thx.
Justin Mason
12:32
Tovar gets 10 straight in Colorado, so I think I would go there

Harrison at $4 in a NL 5x5 is okay for next year right? He is bound to turn things around right?
Justin Mason
12:32
I would love a $4 Harrison in NL Only.

Justin - Thank you so much for your timely responses during these chats.  Very helpful and appreciated.  Not to mention S&B Episodes and everything else.
Justin Mason
12:33
Thank you! I know not everyone stays plugged in during the offseason, but I have some fun stuff planned for chats, articles and the pods.

Would you drop Freddie Freeman for Pasquantino or O'Hearn? I'm worried he sits ~5 in a row w/o and IL stint
Justin Mason
12:33
I could do that for Vinnie P
Hazmat Corntail
12:33
Will there be any leagues outside of NL-only where you’d be in on Carrigg next year? I know you haven’t been impressed, but am wondering because if he keeps a lineup spot in COL, he might still be a decent accumulator
Justin Mason
12:34
I doubt I will have any shares in mixed leagues. Just a boring profile and who knows what the Rockies do with the new front office.
seymour114
12:34
Vinnie P or I Herrera?
Justin Mason
12:34
Vinnie P
Philip Christy
12:34
If you had to choose one, would you keep Tolle/17th round or Logan Henderson/22nd round?
Justin Mason
12:34
Henderson but I want both

I always look forward to these Monday chats - thanks for doing them.
Justin Mason
