That's a great question!
1:57
I can pass the question along

Lifelong NL-only roto player here. Actual question: Is Ryan Zeferjahn closer material?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:58
By stuff, yes
by his future closer-ness will depend on whether the improved command over the last month is for real, or just a temporary blip of goodness
1:59
sorry stat searching
2:00
just two walks since the start of July (14 IP)
30 walks in his previous 39 IP

I'm at the "my season has been toast for ages, just trying to roster as many lottery tickets as I can ahead of next year just in case someone pans out" in a 5x5 NL only keeper league. That being said, are Sproat/Laureano/Baty even lottery tickets at this point, or are they actually wadded-up gum wrappers and Costco receipts?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:01
Sproat is still a lottery ticket
put the other two at Costco

I need a catcher in my NL league and options are thin. Is Susac playable or will he be sent back to Susacramento?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:02
nah, I think he stays up..playable in NL if you're desperate
Playoff rotation

Nicklaus Gaut
2:04
Burns, Ranger, Gore, Eury, Alcantara

You aren't wrong on Lombard; it's me being a bit of a homer for Bazanna and just wanting him on my team. Williams, Bibbee, Delauter and Kwan.  I try not to be, but I am what I am.  :)  My team's name is Kwantified for goodness's sake.
Nicklaus Gaut
2:04
It's not an insignificant point
I'm a big believer in making fantasy fun for you, however which way it comes
2:05
especially in keeper leagues
I like having "my guys", whether Cardinals, or not

AL only ROS SP….Kremer, Blanco, Lynch, Griffin. Thx
Nicklaus Gaut
2:06
Griffin >>> Kremer > Lynch > Blanco

Position difference aside, would you rather have Lombard or Happ rest of season?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:07
Lombard

My wife has suitcases that would fit all seven kids inside. I have the hernia to prove it.
Nicklaus Gaut
2:07
I think we have the same set!
And proof!
Obviously not Bryson Stott
2:08
Keeper ranking request! H2H Categories league, all $5 keepers, can keep for up to 3 years
Troy Melton, Kyle Harrison, Shane Drohan, Ryan Weathers
Nicklaus Gaut
2:09
Harrison > Weathers > Melton >Drohan
but you could talk me into Melton over Weathers

Thanks for the chat! Bryan Reynolds has had a rough last month. Just a summer swoon, or should I have done something more to reinforce my outfield before my recently passed trade deadline?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:10
I lean summer swoon. Seen too much of him to think otherwise (yet)
2:11
I mean, my guy simply does not hit .220 for that long of stretches
2:12
I also have an eternal soft-spot for him because he was one of the first guys I was big into when I started in fantasy content

In an 5x5 NL Roto dynasty league, in 1st but the trades + IL this week cost me Liam Hicks,Foster Griffin, Hunter Greene and James Woods.  SB and Saves is where I can move up, huge lead in power stats (HR, RBI, TB)  Woods for Carroll and MeGill for the trophy?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:13
Do it
Championship moves don't always work out, but given the context of your category situation, i think it's a smart "overpay"
Rick
2:14
Have you seen any signs from Crawford that he will be ready to take a step up next year and be long-term CF for Phillies?
Nicklaus Gaut
2:15
bat is good enough, and he's athletic enough to stick there
2:16
but I still worry the defense won't get quite enough up to snuff to stay in center
