I think 2B is actually pretty deep especially in that Moose range. He does have 1B and might even be a better fit there. I like Bell going to Washington. This is a tough one. I think I'd take discount as everything else feels pretty close

Shane

I can draft Trevor Rodgers for 7 years or Max Meyer for 8 years (I can stash both as a reserve without impacting my roster). I’m in win now mode. Which Marlin would you take?

Paul Sporer

2:29

Gimme Rogers. I'm a fan of him this year!

Tommy

2:29

O/U 12 Teejay Antone starts?

Paul Sporer

2:29

I'll say over... 16

Floyd

2:29

Who do you have more faith in for health and production - Senzel or Winker or both?

Paul Sporer

2:30

I'll take Senzel. I think he's been a bit unlucky injury-wise and I think he's poised for a strong season

Gavin

Paul! Playing with my final keeper slot in a 14-team points league--I can either keep Austin Riley or Hunter Dozier for 3 years at essentially no cost. Dozier's system projections are much higher than Riley's, so there's a chance he gets over-picked. Do I go with the higher upside (Riley), or grab Dozier and hope Riley (or Bohm/Hayes) falls?

Paul Sporer

2:32

Gimme Riley. I think they are really close as-is right now and Riley has some real upside to drop 35+ HRs

Hi Paul, is there anyway to find Yahoo ADP by a specific date range? If not, where would you recommend looking to get the most accurate ADP, whether it be Yahoo or not

Paul Sporer

2:34

I'm not sure about Yahoo! ADP, but NFBC allows you to do date ranges https://nfc.shgn.com/adp/baseball

Jay

2:35

Do you think Story will have a ton of freedom to run whenever given that there's nobody hitting behind him to leave chances to? He should essentially become MLB's equivalent to Kevin Love on the T'Wolves years ago.

Paul Sporer

2:35

Yes, I have no concerns about his running

Sleepy

2:35

Any chance that Tyler Stephenson can do an adequate job at catcher for me as I await Varsho to become catcher eligibity?

Paul Sporer

2:35

Is he starting over Tucker Barnhart?

dave in slc

2:35

best guess for diego castillo this yr a handful of saves w good ratios?

Paul Sporer

2:36

Yes, I think he'll get to double digit saves and rack up a buncha Ks

Bombard

2:36

Does Yelich bounce back into 2019 form this season, or should I be worried about my star keeper?

Paul Sporer

2:36

I'm not worried about Yelich even a little bit, tbh.

toni

2:37

which starting pitchers are the best bets to rack up the most innings for points leagues?

Paul Sporer

2:39

Lance Lynn, Kyle Hendricks, Sandy Alcantara, Zack Greinke, Zack Wheeler, Brandon Woodruff are some guys I'm looking at to get 180+

purplemini

2:39

any reason to believe that Yu Chang could find a way to regular, productive AB's?

Paul Sporer

2:40

There could be a little something there, but where is going to play? 3B (Ramirez), SS (Gimenez), and 2B (Hernandez) are pretty well blocked off right now with some of their best/most interesting players

HDG

2:40

better stolen base rate, Charlotte or Steeb

Paul Sporer

2:40

Steeb for sure, he's insane

Guest

2:40

Great to have you chatting Paul! In an OBP league that also counts offensive strikeouts, in rounds 6 would you keep Biggio or McNeill?

Paul Sporer

2:42

I'll take Biggio w/the OBP factor

Guest

2:42

Dylan Carlson expectations ?

Paul Sporer

2:44

Something like a .270 AVG, 20 HR, 70 R/75 RBI, 13 SB

Ted

2:45

Thoughts on Torkelson getting up this year?

Paul Sporer

2:45

I'd be surprised

KleShreen

2:45

Are there any prospects outside the top 100 that you see pushing for ROTY honors this season?

Paul Sporer

2:46

Trevor Rogers for NL, Leody Taveras for AL - https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2021-top-100-prospects/

Dan

2:46

Is Dustin May worth the roster spot if I need QS and holds? Good pitcher, but I don't want to fall behind in roto

Paul Sporer

2:47

I'm not huge on his fantasy prospects for 2021. I think he will have some decent runs, but on the whole, he might be too inconsistent in role & performance to deliver big fantasy value

Saul Porer

2:47

Bro...Homie...Smart that I scooped up Sale, Sevvy AND Thor for IL spots? Will I get some strong results out of at least one of them?

Paul Sporer

2:48

I'm generally reluctant to take guys in their first year back from TJ. I imagine one will find some reasonable fantasy value at some point, but how long can you realistically hold them before other guys push for those IL spots. I'm not sure the payoff is worth it in a non-keeper

ScottTINSTAAPP

2:49

reason I'm in on Sandy is that I think he's going to be a horse and I don't count out K growth

Paul Sporer

2:49

Same!

o inpa

Who has more of an impact the season, Nate Pearson or Alex Kirilloff?
