Depends on what you need.

Kevin

Jameson Taillon somehow dropped to the waiver wire. Should I drop any of Bundy, Musgrove, or Jon Gray for him?

Justin Mason

9:10

Nah

Big Tuna

9:10

When do you ever trade for saves? I’m first in SB but 2nd to last in SV. Was offered Cody Allen for Cain (I also have Altuve and Trea). Tempted but not sure.

Justin Mason

9:10

All the time. They can be one of the easiest categories to make up points in. I would do that if I didn't need the speed.

Stonecutter

9:11

Love the chat! Skaggs or J. Gray RoS?

Justin Mason

9:11

I am probably in the minority on this, but Skaggs.

Alex in Austin

9:11

Do you feel good about any closers in Tampa?

Justin Mason

9:11

Not at all

Anders

9:11

Are you dropping Luke Weaver for Musgrove?

Justin Mason

Biggy

Think Ohtani pitches more frequently in the second half? His bat's cooled off a bit.

Justin Mason

9:11

I think they are going to try and save his arm, so he may only pitch once a week at the most.

Jim Bob

9:12

Would you rather have Bird or Olson long term in a 14 team dynasty points league? Thank you!

Justin Mason

9:12

Olson because I don't trust Bird to stay healthy.

Jim

9:12

Would you trade Bellinger at a good contract dynasty league to try and win now or will Cody pick it up?

Justin Mason

9:12

I always want to win now. No one remembers the third place team, but we never forget champions.

The Ghost of Wade Boggs

9:12

In a non-keeper league, is it worth picking up Vlad jr?

Justin Mason

9:13

Only if you have an NA slot or really deep benches.

Biggy

9:13

Is Ohtani's arm really that worrisome long term?

Justin Mason

9:13

I don't think so.

Burritos

9:13

Hi Justin. My bench is a bit clogged. What do I do with G Polanco, Gallo, and Yangervis? It seems like no one wants any of them because they are just marginal upgrades on what they have. The AVG and OBP for Gallo/Polanco is especially ugly for other owners in my league.

Justin Mason

9:13

No problem dropping Solarte or Polanco in shallow formats, but I would drop Solarte first.

Trick Daddy Warbucks

9:14

Hey Justin! Thanks for the chat.

RoS: Nimmo, Meadows, or Dahl? Different playing time issues for each, but similar upside.

Justin Mason

9:14

Meadows

Ted

9:14

Is Ross Stripling a keeper or more of a streaming type ROS?

Justin Mason

9:14

Streamer

Ted

9:14

Are you dropping Sonny Gray?

Justin Mason

9:14

depends on depth of league

Boomer

9:14

12 team roto, I'm comfortably in front at 100 with 12s in hitting, good enough pitching, few injuries (Darvish & Ottavino) but been here before in past years, and things fall apart... Any general advice on managing when your team is doing great?

Justin Mason

9:15

continue to be aggressive and diligent. Complacency kills

Don't just sit on a lead. Keep looking where you can improve or lengthen your lead in the standings.

Budd

9:15

Can you give any insight on Belt's terrific year and how well he'll sustain this?

Justin Mason

9:16

Made a swing change in the off season. Shortened to help make it quicker to the ball and close a hole. I believe3 it is very sustainable and he is a top 7-10 1B

Willie hears ya,Willie dont care

9:16

Drop Ian Happ for a SP streamer, or is he too valuable to drop?

Justin Mason

9:16

I wouldn't want to outside of very shallow formats.

Jim Bob

9:17

Haniger's power has come back to earth this month. Over/Under 20 more HR this year? Thanks!

Justin Mason

9:17

Over. I beleive
