Ooof... I'll take Perez over the rest of these, mostly by default.

Is Manzardo looking as bad under the hood as his surface stats show?
Ray Murphy
12:41
No... in fact there's an interesting forum discussion about him. Five straight games (streak ended on Saturday) he had exactly one hit, a double. In that time, he hit 12 balls in play... 11 of them in the air. If he keeps doing that, he's going to be fine.

Of course, then he struck out 5 times over the weekend. But I think there's hope here.

Hi Brent,  10 team 5x5.  Is Jasson Dominguez worth stashing in a 10 team league, or is he more of a 12 - 16 team roster player.  I have IL space.  Thank you,
Ray Murphy

No, I don't think he's rosterable in a 10-team mixed, mostly because I can't see how he's going to play every day when he comes back... let alone whether he produces enough to be an asset for you.

NL only 5x5, turnbull or brown?  Thanks Ray

I assume Turnbull finds his way back to the rotation sometime soon, at which point I would easily prefer him over Brown.

Hi Ray, 3rd question if you have the time. Start Winker this week or bench him due to injury issue?
Ray Murphy
12:47
You didn't give me the "or who" part of the question... but if I had to guess, they'll sit him today because then they face two lefties after today, so you probably won't see him in the lineup til Thursday.

No CI depth so have to start him. Is the health or is he done?
Ray Murphy

Health is obviously a concern, I read an interview with him during his last IL stint and it sounded pretty ominous. Is he done? Kind of hard to say, he can't stay on the field long enough to show if he can still hit. He's got a few hits since coming off the IL, there could well be something there. But let's see him stay in the lineup another week...

OK, looks like I've just about reached the bottom of the question queue here, so I'll wrap this up and let you all get back to your holiday weekends.  Brent will be back in this space next Monday.

Good luck this week!
