I still think they're going to keep him
unless they get overwhelmed
which the Dodgers Definitely could do
1:38
but that's a hard pill for that young core/fanbase to swallow
Jordan
1:38
How much longer until I can drop Ian Happ?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:39
ehh, kind of depends on your wire
because I still think he's above replacement-level enough that it'll be hard find similar on the waiver pile
1:40
but also, he's not good enough to keep if he's negatively affecting your mental health
besides, can you really trust people named Ian?
that aren't also name McClellan?
1:41
sweet jeebus, I can't type today
Snakes
1:41
Locklear worth picking up as a backup 1B?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:41
worth a flyer if you have the roster space/lack of need
see what happens post-deadline

What are your thoughts on Matt Shaw’s future?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:43
long-term, I think he'll still be a better real-life, than fantasy player,
but still a "startable" one in 12-teamers
1:44
sure, maybe that's only as a top-12/15ish guy at 3B, but that's not nothing
Shaw's biggest problem, perception-wise, was setting the bar wa-aay too high in '24
Cardinal Direction
1:45
Do you see Quinn Mathews making any fantasy-relevant impact this season? Worth an add for a keeper league?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:45
As much as I'd love to boot-lick some Cardinals, I'd say no to both

Does Alcantara stay put and is he productive? His last outing was not good, is it a sign of things to come for him?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:46
yes and yes(ish)
1:47
but we've seen this marlins story before
the tails be spinning

Ottoneu league. Someone just put a $9 Neto on the block. My MI scenario isn’t phenomenal (X Edwards, Bichette, C Young), and he wants an OF. I have Acuña, Chourio, Carroll, Langford, Yelich, Ewing, and Heriberto Hernandez.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:48
offer him those guys, in reverse order, until he says yes
1:49
i mean, minus the last two
damn it cant count!
DM
1:50
gah hit enter too early - would you swap Yelich for Neto?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:50
100%
Delusional

Blake Snell is going to come off the IL and carry my team across the finish line! Right? Right???
Nicklaus Gaut
1:50
ummm....
he's certainly done it before!
I wish you luck

H2H Categories, auction, can have up to 5 keepers. Kyle Harrison and Logan Henderson, despite some minor injuries (and one home run derby in Las Vegas), have been quite solid. Would you consider them to hold some value as $5 keepers for next season?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:51
Harrison, for sure
Logan is a little dicier
McGonigle, McGonigone?
1:53
Without knowing league specifics, what would you try and target if you were offering up Kevin McGonigle? I have Caminero and Abrams already so he’s a bit redundant?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:54
I'd be looking for a top-40ish hitter or top-30 pitcher
