And yeah, I agree with you on Dominguez

Who do you like better ros once brought back up from the minors, R Detmers or B Miller?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:34
I always have a hard time not picking Reid Detmers on virtually any question. sigh
Grifter
11:34
Prospect analysts aren't terribly high on O's draft pick Griff O’Ferrall, but it's an 80-grade name, right?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:34
Oh absolutely!
He needs to succeed
Chris

Thanks for chat. Mayo is somehow available in my 12 team per my checking just now, I asked about dropping Hicks for Kershaw but now I think I need to drop Hicks or Mikolas to get him - which do you think?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:35
Drop Mikolas for Mayo - post haste!
Angels pitchers poisoned?
11:35
In my keeper league I'm currently rostering Reid Detmers and Caden Dana because in a vacuum they are both good prospects.  But I'm wondering if Detmers inconsistency could be attributed to a flaw in organizational coaching and if so could that limit Dana's ceiling?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:36
It's a fair point - their player development sucks, quite frankly
I can't wait for Reid Detmers to go somewhere else and dominate
"he said, wistfully"

THANK YOU
Nicklaus Gaut
11:37
yep yep

Just a bump in the road for R Suarez or are his last few starts closer to what we should expect from him ros?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:37
Bump in the road - don't doubt my guy ; )
11:38
In case anyone wonders how I feel (and have felt) about Ranger Suárez
Turnabout is Fair Play
11:39
Is JH Malloy turning things around, or are the few recent home runs just random variance when he's still striking out?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:39
I don't think much has changed - he has 20-25 HR power but with a  whiffing profile where he'll need to hit 35+

A lot of talk about the Red Sox need help against LHP. The middle of the infield is their weakest positions, so who do you think they could target to help?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:41
I don't think it'll be a big swing - someone like Rengifo or Amed Rosario?
Rengifo is the better option imo - but I think a lot of teams think that too

ROS is David Fry Droppable, bench/fill-in useful or regains-the-magic-startable?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:42
Droppable
Reynaldo Lopez
11:43
I picked up Reynaldo Lopez right after the draft thinking he'd end up being a holds guy.  Now I'm wondering given his age is he an getting into solid keeper consideration or is he a walking future regression?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:44
Depends on what your other keeper possibilities are but Lopez has always had sneaky good stuff and I like his future, relatively speaking
Guest

Will T. Casas have any impact this tear
Nicklaus Gaut
11:46
~10 HR, 40 R+RBI, and a .250 AVG?
riegs
11:46
Lots of questions about Mayo and Angel Martinez (both are available in my league). Do you like either of them more than Gorman?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:46
I'm a long-time Gorman hater so you probably shouldn't trust me
11:47
He's a safer bet for production this season but I'd still rather have Mayo (assuming a call-up in the next week)
Martinez is more of a toss-up - depends on how safe you're feeling at their position

Volpe ROS/ Lee ROS.
Nicklaus Gaut
11:48
Gimme volpe
Mike
11:49
Should we still believe in Gavin Williams without the strikeouts?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:50
He's way less shiny without them
Still think he's ultimately a 9 K/9 guy
Marcell Ozuna
11:51
I'm looking for a bat in my league and Marcell Ozuna is likely to most attainable via trade.  Do you think his second half will  be greater/equal to/less than his first half?
Nicklaus Gaut
11:52
It won't be greater than (and maybe not equal to) but I'm not expecting some big swoon. Good target if needing a bat
