no, both their roles seem stable for the time being
1:44
But you'll have to worry more with Hamilton getting wiped out during a heavy-lefty week

1:44
More saves moving forward?: Cole Winn on the Rangers or Doval on the Yankees?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:44
easy Winn
Re: Too Many Closers
1:45
Never thought I could have too many closers (!) but I’ve got Helsley, Romano and Erceg in AL only. Keep Bryan King around as a spec (especially with such shaky closers) or use the spot to stream a starter? (Arrighetti, Kay, Cecconi the sorts of available names)
Nicklaus Gaut
1:45
embarrassment of riches lol
1:46
I'd keep King around for the time being, but with a plan to dump him if more "potentially keepable" streamer pops up

Tell me about Jordan Walker.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:46
that's bait meme
but also it's happening meme
typing out memes -- that's what you're supposed to do, right?
1:47
where to start?
dramatic increases in basically every good statcast metric you can find
1:48
back to crushing fastballs like when he first came up
finally reversed the downward slide into supreme-whiffery?
1:49
y'all, I CANNOT be trusted for rational jordan Walker analysis
Trade Offer
1:50
Give: Drake Baldwin. Get Stowers and William Contreras. Thank you
Nicklaus Gaut
1:50
I'd do that
GoPapas

Will Aaron Judge pan out to over 500 points as expected or no because he’s been horrible to start only gained like 8 points from him
Nicklaus Gaut
1:51
My judgment says he'll get there

Mike Kils of Denver 9 news reports Prenner Sports Group which has a minority share of the Broncos, Has bought a minority share of the Rockies. 40% is my understanding. Can you confirm this?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:52
I'm not clued in enough on the Rockies ownership beat, but Mr. Google says no
The Search for Holds
1:53
Hi Nicklaus. I’m still hunting for holds. Right now I’m using Tyler Wells, Juan Murillo and Tyler Rogers. Thoughts on these guys and any surprise setup men suggestions?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:53
the Wells/Rogers combo ain't bad
1:54
Sterner in Sac

Call me a homer but replying to Cantileverd, I believe in their entire staff except maybe Slade.  I have Bibee, Williams and Messick in my fantasy rotation, pays off every year.
Nicklaus Gaut

wisdom
don't doubt the voodoo
Cardinals
1:55
Is Tork a decent projection for Walker? Former uber prospect with elite power eventually settles in as a 30-homer high-K guy? Or can Walker give us more?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:57
Taking off homer-hat: Walker still has a higher fantasy ceiling. a non-insignificant amount of speed and playing in less of a cavern helps
Eric L
1:57
Can Jordan Walker keep up his hot pace for the Cardinals
Nicklaus Gaut
1:57
now you're just trying to distract me
Guarded Indian
1:58
Junis have a chance at saves or was that a one time thing?  Is Winn the guy?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:58
No, I think they'll both keep getting shots
Giolito

Julio, Witt Jr have combined for 2 XBH (doubles) through 95 AB’s. Early season freak out or the numbers will arrive shortly?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:58
patience, grasshopper

I spent 85% of my auction budget on hitting; naturally I've been carried by my pitching so far. Should I plan on upping that to 95% next season, or am I just cursed to walk this earth with disappointing hitters
Nicklaus Gaut
1:59
I'm afraid its a curse
just start telling people you're the Highlander
