That is loftyyyyyyyyyyyy. I think top 15 would be a win right now

IL Bound

2:37

Can we all just pour one out for the number of injuries lately?

Paul Sporer

2:37

It's been a nightmare for sure

Jennifer Lopez

2:37

JENNIFER.LOPEZ.

Ray

2:37

If Brad Miller gets the playing time, think he could compare favorably to Eduardo Escobar?

Paul Sporer

2:37

Yes, but he will prob only play vRH while Escobar plays daily

sam

2:37

You an Adolis believer? Where does the OBP settle - what's the 3 year outlook?

Paul Sporer

2:39

I'm a big suspect on him, but I think the playing time will remain strong so even as his slash line regresses, there will still be homers and steals. OBP will be low-.300s and I could definitely see a sub-.300 the rest of the way.

My condolences for the Castillo @ Coors start

Paul Sporer

2:39

LOL thanks. It's been roughhhh with him this year

Jake

2:40

Would you be starting Aguilar or Mercedes in your Util spot? Both had some hot RBI streaks that have cooled off a bit in the last few weeks

Paul Sporer

2:44

Yermin still bringing the AVG, so I'd go with him if I can only choose one. I wouldn't cut Aguilar, though. I think he's got 30 HR potential this year

Hi Paul,

Paul Sporer

2:44

hi!

Porcho Villa

2:44

Need 1B help-- grab Bell or Vaughn?

Paul Sporer

2:44

I'd take Vaughn

Liam

2:44

Been offered Muncy for Stanton in a 12 team redraft using OBP. No dire positional needs though am deeper at OF than infield. Muncy seems like he will regress given his BABIP and HR/FB but still should be a great hitter. Stanton's EV suggests he can hit 40-50 more HRs this season. Gut feeling this is the big Stanton year

Paul Sporer

2:46

It seems you're set on Stanton which I get. I'd go for Muncy personally, but it's close enough to make a case for either so stick w/your gut & keep Stanton

2:48

Are you trying to buy low on Gallen in keeper leagues or is potential TJS making you stay away?

Paul Sporer

2:49

I'm not really going for him. I'm too worried about the TJ which then takes him out for '22, too

Brutus

2:49

Paul, love your work! Also, thank you for giving me something meaningful to do during this never-ending work meeting.

1) Alek Manoah. Are you starting him tonight or is this a wait-and-see circumstance?

2) Jackson Kowar is giving me Ian Anderson vibes. Am I being overzealous?

Thanks, as always!

Brutus

Paul Sporer

2:55

While Manoah is a must add, doesn't mean he's a must start at NYY so I'll probably chill on tonight's start. Totally get the Kowar/Anderson call out given the elite changeups from both. Kowar's command and control aren't as developed as Anderson's was coming into last year, but Anderson had a sub-2.00 ERA so there's plenty of wiggle room for Kowar

Brian

2:55

All the Trevor Richards questions should have been Rogers. Brain farts everywhere. Sry.

Paul Sporer

2:55

You're totally fine!

Mike

2:55

Who knew Trevor Richards was such a coveted asset (joking)...

What are your expectations for Trevor ROGERS the rest of the year? I'm thrilled with him in dynasty but the inability to go through the lineup 3 times seems at least a tad concerning, no?

Paul Sporer

2:57

I'm a believer in Rogers for sure. He's at least a 3.50/1.25 guy rest of way with plenty of upside to beat both of those marks. He's a stud!

Charlotte

2:57

Would you sit either Isiah Kiner-Falefa or Eugenio Suarez for Adalberto Mondesi, going forward?

Paul Sporer

3:00

I'd sit IKF. I know he's become a bit of a meme player for me bc I roasted him on the ITL podcast saying it didn't even matter that he had C eligibility in Yahoo!. That was of course wrong and I definitely contradicted one of my favorite things in fantasy; a non-catching catcher.

If you can get a full-time position player who qualifies at C, they really don't have to be all that good to be a legit catcher option. Alllll that said, without that eligibility, I'm still not sold on him as the 5 HR are an anomaly. So I'd go Mondesi/Suarez w/IKF sitting or even cut (if he doesn't have C)

BudLight

3:01

Olson for Luis Castillo. Fair deal?

Paul Sporer

3:01

For sure

Josh

3:01

If Ozuna is out longish term, is he a cut in 10 teams assuming IL spot is full? he has been pretty underwhelming even before the injury

Paul Sporer

3:02

It's at least 6 wks. I can get behind cutting him in 10 tms where you have more important guys in the IL spots

Windy

3:02

Carson Kelly or Sean Murphy? 12 team .OBP league

Paul Sporer

3:03

Maaaan, I'm a bit nervous about Kelly playing through the toe fracture so I'll lean Murphy

Bill Lumbergh

3:03

10 years of Trent Grisham or 5 years of Christian Yelich?

Paul Sporer

3:07

Not sure you can really add much value beyond 2-3 yrs given how uncertain things get after that so I'll just go with the better player in Yelich

Ohio

3:07

Happy World Otter Day!

Paul Sporer

3:07

Thanks!!!

3:08

Me when I heard it's World Otter Day:

3:10

OK y'all, I gotta get going. Thanks so much for coming out! Follow me on Twitter (@sporer), Twitch (sporer), and Instagram (p_sporer). I’ll be streaming on Twitch later tonight and you can definitely come by and ask questions about fantasy there. Have a good one, y’all!
