Hello, friends
1:02
It's the first week of our kids being back at school.
I'm doing great
Thanks for asking!
Let's baseball
Prospect callup updates?
1:02
Happy Friday! Jenkins got called up. Which fantasy prospects could be next?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:02
Happy Friday, indeed
1:03
Arias with a bullet?
but I also now think one of De Paulo/Tibbs will get the call, too

Hi, thanks for answering this question.
Hi, Kyle Manzardo and Tyler Locklear. Both optioned to Minors. Quad A guys? Or with a 2027 role? Thanks for answering this question.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:04
You're welcome!
Oh, you probably want an answer, too
It's too early to slap Quad-A on either
1:05
but Manzardo is dicier for 2027, given role, roster, etc
He's gonna have to earn it,
1:06
I think there's a decent chance that Seattle decides to give Locklear a real-shot at the job from jump

I have Abrams locked up in my Dynasty league for a couple more years.  With him moving to 2b, I need to find a new SS.  I am currently rostering Lombard and Genao.  Should I sign either of them to a 2- or 3-year contract or see who I can draft next year?
Nicklaus Gaut
1:07
I'd definitely lock Lombard for 3
I'd probably take my chances putting Genao back in the draft
but you might talk me into a short-term

Was all excited for Heliot Ramos in NYC, but he seems fully small side platoon. Cut for McAdoo or Leody in AL Only obp? Daily moves, but that doesn't matter if he's on the bench...
Nicklaus Gaut
1:09
Yeah, I'd definitely cut him for Leodys
he's playing every day -- basically gold this time of season in AL-only
Do u want Moore?
1:10
Christian Moore’s AAA showed some heat. Is it just AAA talent or is he worth scooping up? (McAdoo is the cut, AL only, obp league)
Nicklaus Gaut
1:11
sorry been pondering as stare at lineups
1:12
Yeah, I'd take Moore over McAdoo
the discipline improvements at AAA were for real, right?
Walker Jenkins, Minnesota Ranger
1:12
Walker Jenkins of Brendan Donovan (AL Only, OBP league)
Nicklaus Gaut
1:12
In the eyes of the ranger
party 1
the unsuspecting stranger
1:13
had better know the truth from wrong and right
Walker Jenkins!
*Roundhouse Kick*
Walker Jenkins, Minnesota Ranger

I know you like to throw water on the call-ups (calls-up?), but curious if that applies to Walker Jenkins.
Nicklaus Gaut
1:14
not this time, friends!
I generally worry more about relying on call-ups in the long-term, as the prospect path of development can be long and full of danger
1:15
but given milb performance, likely playing time, and a short fantasy window remaining?
he's roundhouse-kicked his way into my heart

Tawa or Beaver in a vaccum? Who had the better chance to remain hot or more consistent for the next 3 weeks?
