but I like Holmes the most
especially if he gets traded lol

In a H2H points league with k penalty, would you drop Heliot Ramos or Luis Lara? Strong team already so mainly looking for potential upside
Nicklaus Gaut
1:37
I'd rather keep Lara if it's a mostly upside play

What are your thoughts on Joshua  Kuroda-Grauer?  My friend is a huge Rutgers fan and he said jump on him so I paid $5 of my remaining $77 for him.  My middle infield options are Altuve and Javier Sanoja (I have Casey Schmitt at 2nd, Bobby Witt at SS, Okamoto at 3rd and Jonathan Aranda at Utility).  Do you think Kuroda-Grauer is the real deal and starting SS or MI in fantasy?  It's a Roto League 6 x 6.
Nicklaus Gaut

I think he'll be a better real life player than fantasy asset
unless he can find a power stroke in the majors
and I don't think he will

Is Mauricio worth holding on to? Options are Jarvis, Callahan, Freeman, N Lowe, Sosa, Velazquez and othercsmilar
Nicklaus Gaut
1:40
I'd rather have Lowe

Cam Smith's underlying numbers seem to be decent but last three weeks have been brutal.  Is this mainly explained by the drop in BABIP or something else?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:41
I'm not worried -- his profile is bound to bring stretches of BABIP-y droughts
BABIP-y is a word, right?
1:42
If not, I'm going to put that on the record, too

Good afternoon Nicklaus.  Hope Chicago is treating you well.  Do you think that George Lombard and/or Leo De Vries have a chance of being Calle up to MLB this year?  I ask because I have both on my reserve roster (AL-only, 5x5 keeper league).  SS is Witt, Jr., 3B is McGonigle, 2B is Chisholm, and MI is Rafaela.  So, if either / both get called up, I will have to get creative.  And, as always, thanks for doing these chats.

Good afternoon, to you!
1:44
Lombard has a better chance
especially if the NYY continues to burn the dumpster
I put De Vvries getting called as pretty unlikely
1:45
but man, LDV is looking good
LDV...On the record!
no one will ever think to call him by his initials

What's your take on the rest-of-year performance for rookies Denzer Guzman and Cameron Cauley?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:47
I prefer Cauley on talent, but his regular playing time is way less guaranteed than Guzman's
RAGBRAI
1:47
Call we just call LDV, 455 for short. Just for the Roman numeral geeks.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:47
oh sweet jeebus
I love that so much
ON THE RECORD!!!!

To the extent that it helps, the word on Ranger was that it was a mild injury and the only reason they put him on the DL was because of the ASB.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:48
rest well, my sweet prince
RAGBRAI
1:49
Who might see increased playing time due to being moved or someone blocking them being moved? Thanks for the chats!!

Security time around what do you expect from Waldschmidt?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:51
if he wants to be fantasy relevant, the answer needs to be: don't strikeout 35% of the time
Suarez problem
1:52
Holmes over me. I'm hurt.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:53
It's just because I won't him to have more time for me
*want him

Fun fact about Jordan Walker in the Home Run Derby...
