LOOOOOOOL

I was huge on Mondesi coming into last season. It is the price that I can't buy into.

Is Votto going to be a steal in drafts this year? Still an on-base monster, context around him improving a lot...am I crazy for still wanting him over someone like Bellinger?

Justin Mason

9:20

Yup. I am getting him everywhere.

Took him in the 5th of a 15 team NFBC league recently and I was stoked.

Last 2 keepers in a 14 team dynasty points league (points skewed towards power/OBP guys and dominant SP) - Felipe Vazquez, Andrus, Smoak, Choo, Dee Gordon, Samardzija? Thanks!

Justin Mason

9:21

Vasquez and Choo, I guess. Hard to tell without knowing the points set up.

What is the longest you're willing to wait on starting pitchers in drafts?

Justin Mason

9:21

4th or 5th round in a 15 teamer.

Keep Bellinger or Chapman? I have Rizzo at first already in a H2H. I also do not enjoy watching Bellinger (aloof California guy). I also do not enjoy california.

Justin Mason

9:21

Bellinger for me, but I love chapman.

Aaron

I'm sitting on a $60 Bryce Harper heading into the Ottoneu cut deadline. Yay or nay at that price? With 4 or 5 teams heading into the draft with huge amounts of cap space, I feel like he'll clear $60 in a redraft

Justin Mason

9:22

Ottoneu questions should be directed at Brad Johnson's chat later today.

I laughed quite a bit at the thread of you and your wife giving your daughter "the talk."

Justin Mason

9:24

Thanks, I laugh so I don't cry.

Bellinger or Hoskins in a 6x6 OPS?

Justin Mason

9:24

Hoskins

Cubs Closer: Brach, Strop, Cishek, or does Joe mix and match?

Justin Mason

9:24

Strop

Points Lg - need two keepers of these three - Robbie Ray, Jon Gray, Zack Godley. Thanks Justin!

Justin Mason

9:25

Ray and Godly

What's Francisco Mejia's fantasy outlook this season (assuming he stays in SD)? Reasonable projection? High end projection? Thanks!

Justin Mason

9:26

If he stays in SD, I think he hits like 10-15 homers with .260 avg. May have hard getting consistent ABs because hedges is such a good defensive catcher.

Vegan Man!

9:27

Over/Under 30 HR for Christin Stewart this year? Think he can be a starting OF in a 14 team points league? Thanks!

Justin Mason

9:27

I think he will be just under

but yeah, I think he will be viable.

I'll give you a winter prediction: It's gonna be cold, it's gonna be grey, and it's gonna last you for the rest of your life.

Justin Mason

9:28

seems legit

brian

Thoughts on Cutch in Philly?

Justin Mason

9:28

I like Cutch in Philly. Especially if harper is batting behind him. Could be a nice value where he is going as the power and speed should play up more in Philly.

Maris

Got last pick in first round -- points league. For one year, who you like -- Severino, Syndegaard, Buehler?

Justin Mason

9:29

Severino

brian

9:29

You think the Cubs should just play Schwarber every day?

Justin Mason

9:29

absolutely not

The Dude

9:29

Which side in a keeper league: Goldy/Machado or Lindor/Bryant? Worried about Bryant's shoulder this year?

Justin Mason

9:29

Lindor side

Jason

Hey Justin - thanks for all your hard work. Need some help with extensions - 14 team mixed std 5x5. I've got both Bauer & Taillon in option years - can keep this year only at $5 or extend ($10 this year and $5 each additional years - max 3 more years). What do you think? I hate extending pitchers but all the top pitchers seem to be protected every year.

Justin Mason

9:30

I never extend. Especially not pitchers

Rick C

9:31

Who would you keep - Jansen at the cost of a 9th round pick, or Treinen at the cost of a 13th round pick?

Justin Mason

9:31

Treinen
