MLBTR Chat with Nicklaus Gaut
powered byJotCast
Nicklaus Gaut
10:17
has the changeup for lefties but nothing very whiffy for righties
Guarded Indian
10:18
Keeper league where we issue contracts for multiples seasons on players.  Are any of Tonge, Messick or Yesavage worth throwing a couple of years on?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:18
I would for Yesavage
Messick, no. Tong is iffy but I'd lean no
Yor-done
10:19
I've got Yordan for $37 in an AL only OBP where I keep 4. Is that worth holding? My lead is such that I can probably leave him on my bench for the week without suffering, but I wouldn't mind replacing him. (Vladito $35, Bubic $1, Schanuel $4, Pepio $11 are some of my other names.)
Nicklaus Gaut
10:20
He's the type of guy I hate to keep. We've seen the ceiling but it's just impossible to assume a full year of production
10:21
that pricey for Vlad but I still think I'd rather keep him
Bench Bat
10:22
Looking for a bench bat in AL Only, OBP daily league. Could you rank (or pick a top 2 from) India, R. Palacios, Joc, A. Martin, Zach Cole?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:22
India and Joc for me

Morning N.G. Please rank for 2025. Nolan M. - Connelly E. - C.Schlittler - T,Yesavage ....Thanks!
Nicklaus Gaut
10:24
McLean > Yesavage > Early > Schlittler
and good morning to you!
Oh! O's
10:25
Are you trusting any of the O's Arms vs. the Yankees? Bradish, Rogers, Wells?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:25
Trust? Not really
10:26
but I think you probably need to start Rogers and Bradish
Land Grant?
10:27
Any odds on Grant Taylor closing for the CrySox next season?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:27
Leasure will be the favorite but Taylor will probably still be in the mix, given it's not like the White Sox are going to bring anybody in
Spot the Spot Starter
10:29
Rank these starts? Early vs. DET, Cameron @ATH, Bradish @NYY, Yoendrys Gomez @WSH, Cantillo vs. TEX?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:29
Bradish > Cameron > Early > Cantillo > Gomez
Memory Palacios
10:31
Richie Palacios was gonna be a strong side starter on the Rays but now is sitting vs a 4th straight righty.  No real question, just something to bring up next time you yell at Kevin Cash.
Nicklaus Gaut
10:31
He's the worst!
It's one of my longer-held fantasy positions
He actively hates us
fact
10:32
He's a terror!

10:33
Do you have any favorites from the morass of these al only relievers? Fernando Cruz, Whitlock, Sands, Grant Taylor, Sabrowski, Cano, Erceg, Hogan Harris? Thanks!
Nicklaus Gaut
10:33
Sands and Cano are the best of the worst
Volpe'd
10:34
Volpe got some hits after the cortisone shot and 6 days off. Can be be hot this last week or will they baby him too much to roster?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:34
Still not sure he's worth rostering
Cornered Cat
10:34
'I'm not in here with you, you're in here with me'
Nicklaus Gaut
10:34
Earl still hasn't learned the #1 lesson about cats
10:35
but he'll meet a claw, soon enough
@tayyyburrr
10:35
Currently in 2 World Series' and 1 Championship Series... 25 Man Keeper Leagues... what do I do with Zach Neto? I can IL stash him for now.  Almost had a 30/30 szn... is he a definitive Keeper?!?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:35
Yeah, he is for me
love me some Neto
"Bad on Paper"
10:36
Did you say the Rogers start looks "Bad on paper" because the questioner used "nyt" instead of "nyy"?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:36
I may not know you, but know that I love you
Yeah, Savage
10:37
Will Yesavage get another start? Or maybe a bulk relief vulture win?
Nicklaus Gaut
10:37
I think he gets at least the next one @KC
Will in Westport

I am two points out of the money in my AL-only, 5x5 Roto league.  All categories are locked on the hitting side, and I am leading saves.  SO, starting pitching is important.  I have warren on my staff, and Baz on my reserves.  In the last week, with "money on the line" (literally and figuratively), for which would you opt?  AND, thanks for doing these chats all year Nicklaus.
