Hello, friends
1:01
No time for intros; let's baseball!
BatPurrell
1:01
Hold onto Caminiti or drop him for someone like Eyanson/Ryan/Chourio?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:01
I prefer Eyanson out of the four
BatPurrell
1:01
Caminiti or Scarborough?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:01
But back to Caminiti for this one!
Sad Giants Fan
1:01
Will the Giants be able to move any of the bloated infield contracts?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:01
Umm...
1:02
Only if they're willing to eat a lot of cash
like a lot
Nolan McLean Update?
1:02
Happy Friday Nicklaus! Looks like the league is starting to figure out Nolan McLean. Any thoughts on this? Do you think he will adjust and this is just a rough patch, or is it something more?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:02
This early on, I'm always going to lean rough patch
1:03
but we'll have to see how he adjusts to the adjusts, as it were
1:04
I'm also at least keeping a casual side-eye at the slight dip in 4-seam velo the last few games
Pete
1:05
Vest?  Finnegan?  Anderson?  Who ya got at closer for Detroit?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:05
Drew!
Who let the cows out?
1:06
For my AL Only OBP Bench Bat, do you like any of of Foscue, Taveras, Osuna, Cowser? Thanks!
Nicklaus Gaut
1:06
Yeah, Cowser
1:07
best in that bunch, anyways
My sodie is too cold. My teef hurt
1:07
Better buy low: Soderstrom or Jarren Duran in al only obp league? (Sody's 1B eligibility is useful.) Would trading away a $4 Varsho be too much?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:07
in a vacuum, it's Duran
1:08
but it's close enough that the importance of the positional elig might be enough to flip it
god I'm tired of Duran sucking
no, varsho isn't too much
Gray skies ahead
1:09
Taking any fliers on Grayson Rodriguez in ALonly? Stuff+ looks ok, and yesterday was better albeit against the Tigers. Home vs Colorado next.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:09
Yes, definitely
missed AL only
even more definitely!
Dancin Homer

I’m in dire need of SP, thanks in no small part to Soriano’s regression and whatever is going on with McLean. Worth trading PCA for any of Harrison, Messick, Rasmussen or Tolle? Points league.  Thanks as always.  (I have Carroll, Trout and DeLauter to otherwise cover my OF; Sanche).
Nicklaus Gaut
1:12
Rasmussen would be the only one I'd consider, and that would still be a steep price
kind of depends on your PCA love/hate
personally, I'm starting to think he might just suck
1:13
so I might be willing to take the risk of it biting me in the ass if he turns it around
RAGBRAI

I been offered Eldridge in a NL 5x5. What’s his outlook this year? Next? I am worried about his playing time this year.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:14
worried about this year much more than next.
1:15
it's hard to be roto valuable if you're only going to play 3-4 times a week
but I like his future
Is ginn a tonic?
1:15
Ginn worth holding on the bench through his tough slate (vs. NYY, @HOU, vs. MIL) or am I better off with a reliever (Ferrer, Bachman) or other stream (Kay, Bello, Miles)? Deep league, natch.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:15
less tonic, more lime
I'd be dropping him for this stretch
