Hi! Do you like any of these arms: urena, sevy, Rocker - or should I just get a middle reliever?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:35
Sevy worth a shot
Yanked around

AL Only OBP league: Should I add oldsters McMahon or Goldy or let them dead cat bounce by themselves? That team scores runs. Cut would be Leody Taveras.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:35
let dem cats bounce
Light it up
1:36
Is jack Leiter a good buy low in a deep league or not worth the trouble? Him or fellow Texan rocket?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:36
strikeout potential still makes him worth it in deep leagues
Yank or Reb

My question is about the Yankees.  First of all what do we expect from Spencer Jones?  I just grabbed him in my league and I'm hoping for the next month I can add 10 HR & 10 SB even with marginal BA.  Am I wrong?  I also want to ask if its time to drop Volpe who was an IL injury stash for the first month.  Now that he's in the minors is he useless or hang onto him like any other top prospect waiting for the call?

Will Spencer Jones stay or go.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:37
short stretches of comically large power, followed by an inevitable 0-for-30, with 20 strikeouts?
the power is undeniable, but you guys...
few whiffer like this guy whiffs
1:38
when your best outcome is fast Joey Gallo, things are on a knife's edge

Good afternoon Nicklaus,  Hope all is good in Chi-town.  My 5x5, AL-only, 10-team Roto league is somewhat depressing, but that is because the entire AL is a pool of mediocrity now.  Seattle appears to be getting ready to activate two players I have on my IL … Brandon Donovan and Bryce Miller.  I am in third place overall … first in hitting, but eighth in pitching.  To the former, which would you recommend placing on my reserves (Colt Keith or Kerry Carpenter) for Donovan?  And to the latter, reserve Shane Baz for Miller?  If Imai comes off the IL Monday, let him go?  Hopefully, I'll have better results in a couple of weeks when Gerrit Coles off the IL.  Thanks for doing these chats, Nicklaus.

I'd ice Carpenter for donovan
and yeah, baz for Miller
I wish you luck in a fortnight!
thanks for always chatting

What would it take to get Jonah tong from the Mets?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:42
for a normal team, probably an unreasonable package
but this is the Mets, so let's assume a deal could get done if a certain quanity of beans are included
`On the subject of Devers....
1:43
What to do from a fantasy perspective? I'm starting to believe the narrative that he's hurt because if not, this falloff is crazy
Nicklaus Gaut
1:43
Listen, I'm always hear for a secret-injury narrative
but this drop off is ca-razzy
1:44
can't even call it a "drop off"
look at his savant page and tell me it's anything but an inexplicable cliff
1:45
oh crap
it's been right in front of our eyes this whole time
clearly Jose has pulled a freaky friday on his cousin
