How do you evaluate hitters in a standard roto league. Does one category have a greater influence in your decisions? In my first Roto (4x4) league in 12 years and things are different.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:50
No, not really
I base everything off of team construction, so I'm always drafting by what I need at that point in the draft

I'd hold Baz

I know I'm a homer for asking but is Cleveland's rotation really underrated.  Looks like they have another gem in Messick, if Williams cuts down his walks he can be elite.  Bibee is a bit up and down but would start on every team in the league minus the Dodgers.

I’m currently in the money (yes I know it’s extremely early) but i have some clear holes. I lack steals, avg, and saves. How soon is too soon to trade a top prospect? I’ve got Made in the minors, but also had Griffin graduate already. Would trading Made straight up for someone like Xavier Edwards be fair? What tier closer should I be able to get for Made?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:55
I wouldn't do something like that Made trade until you're close enough to know that it will be a difference maker

Should the Cubs go ahead now and sign Gialoto now that Horton will be out for the season.  What cost will it take to get him to sign for the remainder of the season or will they sign him through 2027?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:58
if they're tanking, they should definitely sign Giolito
as a Cards fan, I think they should lock him up long-term

PCA is batting 8th v both L and R. His O-Swing is horrendous but his Z-Contact is elite. Do you think he figures it out and significantly improves? Would you be a buyer, seller or holder? Thanks!
Nicklaus Gaut

I'm holding..Let him get out of april before intensifying worry

It was nice to finally see Marcel Ozuna come to life for a moment yesterday.  Do you think he still has something left in the tank?
Nicklaus Gaut

but not a lot
