G'day!
I'm apparently Australian now?
Anywell, let's get started
Wes
11:00
Who are some SP prospects to stash that could debut soon?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:01
David Festa is exciting and could be up soon-ish
11:02
Brandon Sproat has just been nuclear but I think post-ASB is more likely than pre

H2H points with K penalty for hitters, I'm streaming catchers can you help me rank Diaz, Jeffers and O'Hoppe? Thanks
Nicklaus Gaut
11:02
Gimme O'Hoppe by a lot
11:03
I do like Jeffers still but O'Hoppe has been sneaky pretty great under most scoring systems
Cal
11:03
Who are some RP to stash in dynasty that could be closers in waiting?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:04
Justin Slaten is interesting considering Kenley is a FA next season
11:05
sorry damn doorbell
Ryan
11:05
If you had to pick 1 RP for ROS and dynasty format, who'd you pick between: Jansen, Scott, Cano, Harvey, McArthur?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:06
Cano
Yimi Garcia
11:06
Hold me and wait for more news on the elbow, or just dump me?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:06
dumpable if you need the slot today
ManRamie

Hey do u think its worth it to wait on james wood on my fantasy team ?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:07
Yeah, unless you're in a really bad roster crunch
hammy delayed his callup schedule but I think it could still come relatively soon
Billy
11:08
Do you see LA trading for a SS at the deadline?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:09
Yeah, or sooner
I suspect they are going to be super aggressive
Artful Dodger
11:09
Do you believe Tovar or Correa would be a better fill in for Betts?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:10
Probably Correa
11:11
higher floor, less "but Coors!" risk
Pete
11:11
Are you any lower on Langford now?  Do you think the power will come on?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:11
Certainly not higher!
11:12
I'm still a believer in the long-term power but this year has been a struggle
Damn prospects and their non-linear progressions
Steve E

I just had to pick up Luis Ortiz (Pitt) and Randy Vasquez (SD) because of injuries (sayonara Yamamoto, Ben Brown goes down) on my hardcore NL-only keeper team. Am I doomed or can these guys continue to post decent numbers? Trust me when I say they were the best available guys who weren't one-inning relievers.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:13
I'm still kind of a sucker for Ortiz
11:14
but I'd be really wary about Vasquez
11:15
there is a correction coming
Gambling
11:15
Are mlb players allowed to play fantasy baseball?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:15
No, I don't believe so.
11:16
Even if there's no money exchange, I believe "wagering" (via playing) on baseball outcomes still counts
Run to the Wire
11:18
Heliot Ramos is an immediate add in dynasty formats, right?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:18
For sure
Draft prospect
11:18
I'll probably ask this question a few times before the draft, but if you can draft and keep one player from this years draft class who do would you pick today and why?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:19
Bazzana
