It's time to get started.
Isaac C

Any recommendations for first time players in the NFBC. Asking more about what's a good level to start playing at?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
An online championship. The FAAB process and bi-weekly lineup setting can be learned with one.
Dragoon
8:04
14 team dynasty points. I have an excess of 1B. Should I trade A) 5 years of Pete Alonso for 2 years of Story, 2 years of Conforto, 6 years of Tony Gonsolin B) 5 years of Pete Alonso for 1 year of Mookie, rookie roster Ian Anderson, Trevor Larnach, Astudillo or C) Hold
Jeff Zimmerman

I like A a lot.
Ned

How many plate appearances for Miguel Andujar this year?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
300 at most. It's not a good situation for him right now.
abel

how much stock do you put in the SMART strategy? seems sensible enough, but wouldn't the scarcity element have you taking catchers and closers and 1b very early? seems so...dirty and wrong.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
It has some good points and don't mind valuing those positions early but if their ADP is later, just wait.
Escobar
8:07
$10 vladito for a $13 Buehler in a points dynasty league?  Thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
Vlad, I'll lean hitter most of the time
Thank you for the chat!
8:07
What are your thoughts on who could emerge as fantasy relevant from the SF bullpen?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
I think Gausman will be the best arm this season.
Fangraph's Lurker
8:07
the best rookie eligible player on the white sox will be ______?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Roberts ...
Thank you for the chat!
8:08
Does Deivi Garcia have a chance to break camp with the NYY?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Without any injuries, no. The rotation is too deep.
BA
8:08
When making your own custom rankings what advanced metric(s) do you consider the greatest tool in predicting success
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
lineups.
For pitchers, I look at individual pitch metrics
Jay
8:10
10-team / keep 7 (weekly H2H, points based system, not roto); any mistakes if I hold Freeman / Acuna, JDM, Blackmon / Cole, Verlander, Sale and trade or throw back Morton, Nola, Goldschmidt, Tim Anderson, Justin Turner?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
I could be talked into swaping Goldy for Sale.
Yordan
8:10
How big a value is shohei conpared to a comparable hitter who doesnt pitch.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:12
All depends on league type and how the website handles his duel elligibility Daily moves, a second rounder. In weekly moves, After the top-100
Thank you for the chat!

In your early views on the upcoming season, where do you see the most group think from your competitors? And what opportunities do you see to zag when they are all zigging?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
I think closers are now a great value where they are going. There is always that one or two guys who jump on closers and last year, they got burnt. They are backing off, so I think everyone is waiting.
Dildo Shwaggins

My buddy and I got into a discussion that turned into a bet...who would have more homers this year...G Stanton or J Abreu.  I took Stanton.  Who u got?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
Stanton
Smokey
8:14
Who is the next Lucas Giolito?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
Giolito was a unicorn last season. We have no idea who will 1) find the strike zone 2)gain sign velo 3)rework pitch mix. The only way to find them is to watch ST games or the first week of the season.
Smitty
8:16
What can we expect from N Solak now that Frazier is in tow?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:18
Right now, he might not make the team and could be demoted on who they sign.  I think someone will struggle (e.g. Odor) and Solack will then take over about mid-May. I'm staying away from Solack but if he hits the wire, I'll grab him in season.
Kenny G
8:18
Can Kiermaier pull off a 20/20 this year?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:18
Sure if he answers the most important question, can he stay healthy.
Powder blue
8:18
What do you see in Scott kingery this year? How many PA's? Does he make way for Alex da bohm
Jeff Zimmerman
8:19
Good question
8:20
I think they will start him until he fails. I like him but I need to know that I might need to immediately move on.
Big Tuna
8:20
Do you have any stats in particular you like using when looking at MiLB guys to determine if they have translatable fantasy skills?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:20
The Voit-Muncy list for me
