Andres Munoz and Jhoan Duran are playable even if they don't record saves.
They're the types who are top 20 RP w/out saves or Top 35 w/ saves
2:15
Clay Holmes sometimes falls. Ditto Bednar.

5 keepers. better to take a 3rd OF (Harris) or a SS (Witt)? With 1B (Vlad) and a P (Strider)
Brad Johnson
2:15
Positions aside, Witt > Harris every time

Even with McCullers not ready for opening day, I don’t see the Astros giving Hunter Brown full starting role duties. I believe they will monitor his innings. What are your thoughts on this? How many innings do you see Hunter Brown trowing this season?
Brad Johnson
2:16
We've actually seen how they manage innings with Luis Garcia. They keep the pitch count to around 90 and get them extra rest.
2:17
Javier, Garcia, and Urquidy are all penciled in for a larger workload. How they handle Brown might depend on how those others do.
2:18
You might see Brown and another trade off 5th starter/long-man once McCullers is back.

Except for the top 8 outfielders is there anyone else you like?
Brad Johnson
2:18
Among outfielders? Sure, dozens. I like rebounds from O'Neill, Winker, and Laureano.

Rotisserie league.. nl only 9 teams w keepers based on draft cost plus $5 tax.  Is it worth keeping Jordan Walker for $6 over Logan Webb for $13 or nick Lodolo for $11 or O’Neil Cruz for 6 or trea Turner for $36?
Brad Johnson
2:20
For a 9-team league, you might be overthinking it keeping Walker. I'd say the option is Walker and try to redraft Turner or just keep Turner and replace Walker with the next prospect.

12 team head to head league, what round should I be selected?
Brad Johnson
2:21
I'm not sure offhand, whichever round you hate all of your choices.
2:22
like the 10th-15th? Assuming you have IL.
I'm just crossing him off for formats without IL.
ACES
2:22
In a 14 team Roto Points keeper league, which of these 4 potential Aces (Nola, Darvish, Manoa and Strider) would hurt me the least to trade for productive offensive OF's, but still get me good value?
Brad Johnson
2:23
Darvish is nearing the end of the road. I think he's the easy choice. But I would shop Manoah too. There isn't a lot of wriggle room in his profile if any of his traits back up.
Alrighty, let's pull the plug on this. See ya in a couple weeks. Or join the Front Office for private chats every other Monday (i.e. next week).
