Track record, and the fact that he HAS had (small) stretches of success. If you have the bench room, I'd keep him there (that's how I'm handling); I might consider again if he strings together 2-3 good starts in a row. But I also might cut bait a month from now if it's the same 'ol, same 'ol. Very good question ... just still TBD for me.

Happy Monday, everyone!!

I'm sipping my coffee this morning, thinking Freddy Peralta is the legit ace of my fantasy team. No, this isn't an Irish coffee!

LOL, am I jumping the gun, Brent??

Depends on your team, of course! But seems like a bit of stretch at this point.

In a 12-team standard roto with five keepers: I'm in 1st place, with mild week spots in SB. I grabbed Kiriloff from waivers early on and am looking like a genius now. I probably don't need the power (I have Trout, Bryant, Cruz, Moncada, Donaldson, Hosmer and L. Gurriel) but the only real SB guys are Nimmo and Hampson. Trading Kiriloff straight-up for Merrifield - will I regret it? Flags fly forever tho right?

Flags fly forever. Seems like a VG deal

Nelson Cruz for Machado who says no?

Machado roster-er

What are your thoughts on Daniel Lynch? I would think he needs more seasoning in the minors. Do you feel he'll stick in the rotation? How do you think he'll handle MLB hitting?
Brent Hershey

Seen him a bunch as mentioned above, think he has the stuff, arsenal and mix that he COULD stick and thrive, moreso than some other rookie SP.

(lets try this again) Hi Brent;  I'm in a NL only 35 man protect Scoresheet league...I have D'Arnaud and Kelly as my C, and wondering with the recent D'Arnaud news, is if it is worth trading anything of value to grab Contreras, or be content to grab Vogt with a pick in our supplemental draft later on this week.  Rumours persist that the Braves may go shopping for outside help (Flowers?) so as a team that is hoping to contend this year, don't know if Contreras is THE guy to get.
Brent Hershey

Think I'd prob just settle for Vogt, given how well Kelly has started and how Scoresheet works.

in league that rewards Solds (Saves+Holds), Ottavino has been frustrating with the ratios.  Are you holding tight or grabbing a guy like Barlow, Tanner Scott, Joely, Chafin off of waivers??
Brent Hershey

I'm off Otta; Joely time!

Should I be worried about Luis Castillo?
Brent Hershey

Shameless plug: BaseballHQ subscribers will find out on Wednesday, when Castillo is our first FACT/FLUKE SPOTLIGHT subject. Will say that the start has definitely surprised me.

Will Amir Garrett get another chance?
Brent Hershey

Probably, but not in the short-term

14 team 5x5: Keuchel, hold or trade now? Lack of k's is scary
Brent Hershey
1:08
Hold I guess, but all depends on options. Never a big K guy to start with. (Keuchel, not me)
