I've tried and projection systems beat me.
8:39
If Steamer is from FG, the batting order is taken into account and I let the computers decide.
Brian
8:39
Luis Castillo safe now?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:40
No ... he's a pitcher in Cincinnati's small park.
Brian
8:40
What’s your take on Goldschmidt for next year?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:41
He had a typical season but without the steals. I expect more of the same.
Brian
8:41
Manny Machado due for a bounce back?  How about Beni?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:41
I have more faith in Machado but I'm not counting on it. I'll pay for 2019
Nick
8:41
How do you feel about Kopech going into the start of the season? Is he more of a late round flyer guy or should we have more confidence in him ending up as a staple of the rotation?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:42
He's in the flyer range. I'm not counting on anything from him.
Brian
8:42
Do we change our drafting patterns for the power surge, or will it go away?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:44
I'm only doing one thing, giving hitters a bonus if they hit for power in 2016 or 2018 since they are more likely to keep their power if the ball reverts back.

Hey, Jeff! You're not going to believe this, but the wife says it's already time to watch His Dark Materials. Really prefer your chats, but what are you gonna do, you know? Hope you'll be back soon, this was fun. - Michael

Lessons Learned
8:46
Were there any lessons you learned in 2019 that you’ll be applying this year in terms of draft, FAAB, talent identification, etc?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:46
I wrote this up and I'm trying to find it
Royals SBs
8:48
How concerned are you that Mondesi and the Royals will stop running with Matheny there?
Jeff Zimmerman
Wisco
8:49
Who do you like between castenellos or Ozuna if you had to choose now?? Ozuna runs more, but hard to count on that if he doesn’t have a team currently.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:49
Ozuna for now

Scoresheet keeper league.  Looking to trade excess outfielder for starting pitching.  My prime trade candidates are Eddie Rosario or Andrew Benintendi.  Looking at pitchers like Edwardo Rodrigues, Seam Manaea or James Paxton.  How would you rate their relative values?  Thanks.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:50
Paxton ...............Rodriguez .......Manaea
I'm not a fan at all of Manaea

In drafts How much do you lean on the Auction Calculator vs other things or analysis? what are those other analysis you use?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:51
I helped write over 300 pages on my Process: https://www.thefantasybaseballprocess.com/
8:52
I only use the auction calculator for now and will move to my own values later. I'm a believer in SGP to evaluate players.
Yetiman
8:52
how are you approaching Muncy? Was awesome last year but it took some time (and I think injuries) for him to get PAs. Has he earned PAs or will the dodgers rest him a lot
Jeff Zimmerman
8:53
I'm all in at his current price. He came up in the last Launch Angle Pod. Rob Silver may like him more than me

In a new 5x5 12-team H2H. Max 5 moves/week. Weekly IP Minimum is 5. Is it too hard to get Saves to go 100% RP route (Categories: W/Ks/Saves/Whip/Era)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:55
Not anymore. There are so many shared situations. The one item to remember is to shove ERA and WHIP. If you are speculating on Saves, do it will good pitchers
Cream
8:55
When looking for steals and overall value of a middle infielder, would you prefer Garrett Hampson with playing time uncertainty or Tommy Edman, who only has a partial season in the bigs?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:56
I don't like either of these situations. The Cardinals can't keep a MI for what seems more than a year. And Hampson is in the Colorado playing time nightmare.
Nolan
8:57
Lamet or Paddack for 2020 only?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:57
Paddack
Chowda
8:57
Bigger offensive 2020, Luis Urias or Kieboom?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:57
I don't like either but would start with Urias but would move on if he hints at struggling
8:59
That looks like it for the evening. I'm going to try to keep the chat a more regular feature.
