Is Carlson toast or does he just need a change of scenery? He obviously doesn’t bring back anything in trade.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:46
I've have never been high on Carlson - he's still what I though five years ago...big glove, little else
RAGBRAI
11:46
I know Luis Matos is in AAA but do you think he will contribute this year? Is he a starter next year?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:46
I don't think he'll contribute in a meaningful way this year but like his changes in 2025
11:47
*chances
Pete for Corbin?
11:47
Good time to buy low on Corbin Carroll. Is Pete Alonso, straight up for Carrol, a good deal? Which would you prefer?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:48
I think Alonso is too much given he's looked much better lately
11:49
Carroll still obviously has the higher ceiling but I consider him su-uuper risky

The Cubs would have to give up too much to get Guerrero from Toronto, right?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:49
Yeah I don't think they have the stomach for the bullets that would be required
11:53
sorry y'all - dealing with sprinkler people that clearly don't know I'm chatting

I would like to politely request Will in Westport to post the rest of his roster so I can know which injury risks to avoid. Thank you.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:54
lol right??
getting brutalized

When does Austin Riley start hitting? Hoping my loaded fantasy NL team starts hitting, been a slow first half.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:55
dude he's having the weirdest year
really didn't have Riley power outage on the ol' bingo card
11:56
still hits it crazy hard tho
George
11:56
Ober: how do you approach this?  Bench until he gets X good starts in a row?  Start him only against bottom half offenses?  I'
Nicklaus Gaut
11:56
stream only in really favorable matchups until we see  a string of success
Will in Westport
11:56
What's the problem with E. Ruiz, other than the A's management being a bunch of A****** … I mean screwballs?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:56
You had it right the first time
11:57
The A's are everything I hate about professional sports
Will in Westport
11:58
Chip:  COLE, SPRINGS, Pham, Santos, YOSHIDA, CASAS, RUIZ, Baz
Nicklaus Gaut
11:58
There you go Chip

In a 12T H2H Cat Dynasty ... I was offered Luis Robert for Suzuki and Shawn McClanahan.   I'm really looking forward to McClanahan coming back next year.   Is that worth giving up for Robert?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:59
Yeah probably. I'm not a huge Robert guy but that side of the trade is a lot less risky

Is Ben Rice an eventual solution at 1B for the Yankees?
Nicklaus Gaut
12:00
yeah pretty good option
at least they're hoping so
Chip

Is Joe Musgrove broken enough to drop now in a dynasty auction league? I have him reasonably cheap, but I really could use the spot and could spend the money elsewhere.
Nicklaus Gaut
12:00
He's so broken his FanGraphs page won't even load
12:01
I'm not even joking
but yeah, I've been out on him for a while. If you really need the spot/cash, then it's a reasonable drop
12:02
Alright y'all, I'm sorry but I have a hard out today because my kid needs to be picked up from practice kindergarten and they generally frown on child abandonment due to fantasy baseball.
or any reason, really
12:03
Super sorry if I didn't get to your question but you can always ask me again on Twitter @NtBurtReynolds and I'll answer later on
Thanks for all the questions and see you's next week
