nope
Brock

Is this season finally enough for Hosmer to fix his dang swing?
Justin Mason
9:01
probably not.
Mark
9:02
Mallex Smith, Kevin Kiermaier, Austin Meadows, Tommy Pham. Who is the odd man out? Smith is hitting over.300
Justin Mason
9:02
They will platoon Smith and probably rotate KK out more to keep him healthy. All should play.
My fear is they hold meadows in the minors for a while to play the service time game.
Billy Bathhouse

Can J. Aguilar and Muncy maintain their gains from this year?
Justin Mason
9:02
I believe Aguilar can

10xMixed 5x5 roto. About how many pitchers should I be keeping in a keep 15 ?
Justin Mason
9:03
Always depends on who you have and value. I don't have set limits.
Kevin Cash
9:03
Can we finally say that we're back in competition for years to come? Especially with the deep farm we have?
Justin Mason
9:03
nope because they are the Rays
Parts + Gleyber
9:04
Finding Yonny Chirinos, even with his mediocrity, useful given his chance at wins/k's without starts in a AL league with a limit. Worth playing this week, likely against OAK?
Justin Mason
9:04
sure
Parts + Gleyber
9:04
Josh James seems like a high ceiling but low floor guy given youth and the question of where he gets innings. In AL Only, what starter-level would you cut to roster him? Thanks!
Justin Mason
9:04
I would cut Junis level
MarinerDan

Gary Sanchez your no. 1 catcher coming into 2019 despite the dreadful year he has had?
Justin Mason
9:04
gulp... yes
Finding Nimmo
9:04
Hi Justin, 12 team league. I can keep 2 of 3 guys listed. High K guys get big boosts. Clevinger in 17th round. Vlad Jr in 24th round. Shohei Ohtani (batter) in 23rd round. Thoughts?
Justin Mason
9:05
Probably cutting ohtani, but that is really hard. Definitely keeping Vlad

It looks like the Rays will have a lot of position players to rotate through next year in infield(Lowe,Wendle,Robertson) and outfield(Pham,KK,Mallex,Meadows) and no DH spot to rotate through(choi). Do they all get dinged in your mind?
Justin Mason
9:05
A lot of them will. Can't project 600 PAs for most of them.
Matt
9:05
Lol my wife will be pretty mad if I get on Tinder. Any other suggestions?
Justin Mason
9:06
Maybe take her out on a bunch of dates and save up those chits for next season.
No Catcher Fantasy Teans
9:06
I'm seeing a lot of fantasy teams, myself included, going often with no Catcher (especially if your relatively "good" C has the day off).  Using that roster spot for a streamer or a good reliever.  Any thoughts?
Justin Mason
9:06
I have no issue with that if your catcher is going to end up hurting you.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
9:06
Who are you keeping between Ozzie Albies and Christian Yelich (OBP league).
Justin Mason
9:06
Yelich
Jake Junis Priest
9:06
Thanks re: Shoemaker. If not starting vs. SEA, is he worth holding at all? Is a middle man like Josh James a better choice?
Justin Mason
9:07
rather have James
Realmuto
9:07
Chatter has died down, does he get traded in the offseason or stuck in Florida?
Justin Mason
9:07
I think they want to give him a long term deal.
Ozzie Ozzie Albies Free
9:07
So next year my league is switching to a dynasty format. Any suggestions for rules and/or draft strategy for the first year?
Justin Mason
9:08
Make sure trading and keepers rules are set and very clear. I tend to draft Dynasty leagues like they are redrafts. Win year 1 or 2 and then rebuild in year 3.
MarinerDan
9:08
Jeff McNeil looks like a baller.  Agree?
Justin Mason
9:09
I like him, but I don't trust the mets. There is some regression coming for him though. That .369 BABIP is real high.
Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe
9:09
Keep two pitchers in this W, L, QS league: Jake DeGrom (lock), Zack Greinke, Walker Buehler?
Justin Mason
9:09
Degrom and Buehler
Trap Gone Hamels
9:09
So is there a chance that Voit starts at 1B for the Yanks next year? I know you think it's Andujar when Machado gets signed, but barring a Manny appearance?
Justin Mason
9:09
I don't think so. They will address that situation one way or another.
