I'd rather have Vaughn

11:38

"he said, narrowly avoiding a lightning strike"

Hogjaz

11:38

Should I drop Bichette and pick up Correa?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:38

You should pick up Correa but hopefully you can find a better drop than Bichette

utilitymen

11:39

A couple of utility players seem to have come out of nowhere. Will we be talking about Daniel Schneemamn, Lenyn Sosa, or Max Schuemann after this year?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:39

Only in terms of a "remember when" memory

GBS42

11:39

FYI, there's no "a" in definitely.

Nicklaus Gaut

11:39

I'm aware!

11:40

But sometimes fast typing goes sideways

Captain Ron

11:40

In what order would you rank Aidan Miller, Xavier Isaac, Luke Keashall, Marcelo Mayer?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:40

Mayer > Miller > Keashall > Isaac

Guest

11:41

Based on HR/RBI/R/SB/OBP would you rank the following 3B -
Mark Vientos, Ke'Bryan Hayes, Jace Jung, Deyvison De Los Santos

Nicklaus Gaut

11:42

In a vacuum, without regard to call-up time =

Jung > De Los Santos > Hayes > Vientos

riegs

11:43

How many innings do you think Crochet throws this year?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:44

120?

Dwight

11:44

Do you think the Tigers will use their pitching strength to try to bolster their anemic position play?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:44

I mean, they should

That offense is just such a hot mess

11:45

So many utility guys

the Baez/Tork dumpster fire combo is just brutal

riegs

11:45

Are you a B Pfaadt guy? I grabbed him off waivers a few days ago

Nicklaus Gaut

11:46

I am - solid WW ticket

Chourio or Carroll?

11:46

Been offered Corbin Carroll for Jackson Chourio - which do you prefer?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:46

sigh still Carroll

Question Mark

11:46

Which Jackson do you like more? Chourio? Holliday? :)

Nicklaus Gaut

11:46

Holliday

but they haven't done him any developmental favorts

11:47

*favors

Scary Pitcher Returns

11:47

Max Scherzer or Merrill Kelly when both are healthy and back? Max is first, but older. Kelly is old reliable but has no return expectation and no serious injury history to hope on.

Nicklaus Gaut

11:47

Still Max for me

Michael

11:47

Do you still expect Jackson Holliday to be promoted to the Orioles MLB roster? Or, will they leave him in Triple-A for the remainder of the season? Are you still as high on him as before?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:47

Still as high but I think Baltimore will be super careful before bringing him up again

Dynasty Guy

11:48

I saw a couple post hype prospects doing well a month ago (Brennen Davis and Robert Hassell). Do you think either has a path to the majors and a productive career in a dynasty league.

Nicklaus Gaut

11:49

Both should reach the majors this year (I'd say Hassell first)

both are fine dynasty assets

riegs

11:49

F Peralta and especially Cease have been in a rut. Just a bump in the road or do you have any larger concerns about either of them?

Nicklaus Gaut

11:49

bump for Peralta but I've never been a big Cease guy

11:50

but to be fair, he has finally cut back on the walks some
