Both?

2:27

He won't get Ks at some elite rate, but I think he's legit and worth rostering across the board right now

Look Dude

2:27

I accidentally dropped Kittredge in a ww claim first few days of the season. Meant to drop McHugh. Oops. That's gonna hurt all year. You ever had a blunder like that?

Paul Sporer

2:27

Nothing with a cut, but I've made start/sit blunders that stinggggg

B'Ryce Hammer's Luscious Locks

Mitch Keller went 5.1 innings of 4 hit ball with a 32 CSW% against Milwaukee. That's different.

Paul Sporer

2:29

Nice to see the velo finally pay off! He's got a tough 2-step next week, but I can see his believers taking the plunge (home v. MIL & SD)

Ampersand

2:29

ROS pick two: S Suzuki; J Sanchez; T Grisham?

Paul Sporer

2:29

Suzuki & Grisham

Just a fan

2:30

I see you are a fan of Grisham. Should he be owned even in 10 teamers?

Paul Sporer

2:31

I'd say so, but there he falls under the "belongs on a roster, but maybe not your roster" meaning you might have too strong a team to pick him up, but someone is almost certainly rostering a player who should be on the wire instead of Grisham

Indeztree Tawk

How bout SOME LOVE FOR MATT BRASH. Kid looks Legit and what a pickup by Depoto as well

Paul Sporer

2:31

A player to be named later for Taylor Williams!!!

2:32

Brash bypassed AAA, too!

Ben

2:32

Brad Keller - enough upside in a 10-team league to consider more than a streamer?

Paul Sporer

2:33

I'm OK keeping him as a team streamer right now and seeing how he does at SEA and at CWS next

Surprise!

2:33

Who's your biggest surprise of the season? In either direction performance wise

Paul Sporer

2:37

Cleveland's offense going crazy

kevinthecomic

Seems like a lot of hitters are off to slow starts this year. I don't have any stats to back this up, but seems to be more than usual. Any chance this is due to the shortened spring traning? IIRC, hitters have said in the past that the only really valuable part of spring training is getting your hitting timing back.

Paul Sporer

2:38

Shortened spring, deadened ball, and humidors across the board are all factoring

sean

2:39

when is your next pitcher rankings update?

Paul Sporer

2:40

mid-May

Travioli

2:40

How confident are we that Thor is back?

Paul Sporer

2:41

I'm a Thor stan so I'm pretty happy by the early returns. For me, it comes down to health, not skill. If he stays healthy, he will be good

Bob

2:41

Morton lit up in the first inning 18.00 ERA and 3.00 WHIP. Still considered a #1 waiver claim?

Paul Sporer

2:42

Not great, but velo and spin were just fine (actually up v. previous starts) so I'm still going for him. Dodgers are tough

Baseball panda

2:43

On the homepage on mobile I only see trending articles, so new things like the chat aren’t visible so I miss them or am late :(

Paul Sporer

2:44

Not the first I've heard on this feedback, so I'm definitely going to ask about it!

mike

2:44

dropping badoo in 10 teamers?

Paul Sporer

2:46

Unfortunately, yes. There's almost certainly an OF worth getting for him. It's been a throughline of this chat that we have to be more open to cutting guys like this in 10s and 12s bc the waiver pool is so robust and being too patient will cost us. I'm still not cutting anyone I grabbed in the first 15 rds or so, but beyond that, it's open season.

Cito's Mustache

2:46

Your chat banner shows up fine on mobile for me, fwiw (iPhone 11)

Paul Sporer

2:46

The banner yes, but they are referring specifically to the trending articles tab

2:48

or not tab actually, but this

Bob

2:48

You seem to be somewhat high on Reid Detmers (SP 66). Are you deterred by his lackluster two starts?

Paul Sporer

2:49

No, I'm chillin. I play mostly deep leagues (15+ tm'ers) so somebody like Detmers is definitely a hold. Totally get moving on in 10s and 12s where you should be cycling 2-3 pitchers almost weekly

Cito's Mustache

2:49

How often are FanGraphs' "2022 Updated In-Season Projections" updated. Daily?

Paul Sporer

2:49

I believe nightly

Belli's Belly

2:49

Is Cody Bellinger back? Or should I sell high?

Paul Sporer

2:50

You know I can't say if he's back off such a small sample, butttt I am open to selling high even if you do think he's back

OK y'all, I gotta get goin! 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!
