duran or Jimenez for saves ROS?

Paul Sporer

3:01

While Jimenez has the full job in OAK, I think Duran will eventually have a stranglehold on that job and they're the much better team

Big Joey

It is so frustrating holding onto Gallo, I'm never drafting him again. Please tell me you think he will go bonkers for a month or two and carry me, or should I just drop?

Paul Sporer

3:05

This is the Joey Gallo Experience! I certainly won't be surprised if he pops off for a 4-6 wk run, but he has been pretty bad as a Yankee (.166 AVG, .679 OPS). You can cut in 10s and 12s, but I'd still hold in 15s if only because you signed up for this lol

I love the new box score format, btw

Paul Sporer

Ty!!

Your boy Snell

3:05

Are the ER just bad luck, or do you see any red flags under the hood there?

Paul Sporer

3:07

2 of yesterday's were Stammen's HR. I still don't understand why we don't split inherited runners. We're already dealing with partial runs in ERA, so why not divvy up inherited runners?!

Adam

3:07

Chapman's defense has still been stellar, and he seems to be hitting the ball hard, but are the days of a four cat stud over?

Paul Sporer

3:09

If you had told me he cut his K rate by 7 pts to 26%, I'd have said he's hitting .230-.240, but it's down to .192. The BABIP is minuscule but a part of that is the 50% FB rate. That will always foster a lower BABIP, though .224 is still egregiously low

Shaquille Oatmeal

3:09

Anybody else worried about Wander drawing about as many walks as me?

Paul Sporer

3:11

Not too surprised, walks aren't a huge part of his game. Hits not falling is the major issue right now

Toonces

3:11

So if you are starting Springs vs NYY, what are your thoughts on him. They must be good. Have a chance to pick him up but been waiting until after the NYY game.

Paul Sporer

3:11

I mean yeah, I like him

Tallulah Trebuchet

3:12

Would you cut Josh Naylor or Brandon Dury to make room for Kyle Lewis in a 12-tm roto?

Paul Sporer

3:12

You can, but the three are pretty close so pick your 2 faves

Are you the Austin fangrapher? I lose track

Paul Sporer

3:12

I am

Bruce in 2023

3:12

Albies or Bregman? Deep mixed roto

Paul Sporer

3:12

Still Albies

Should I drop William Contreras for Yasmani grandal? Points league

Paul Sporer

3:13

Yes, I still think he will be fine

stefano

3:13

Re: The Royals. I think Mondesi is still on the 10 day, so should be easy for the royals to make a 40 man move

Paul Sporer

3:13

Ooh good call re: getting Pasquantino up

Bob

3:14

Josh Bell looks like a pleasant surprise. Do you think he keeps it up or would you look to sell high or at least higher than I would have thought?

Paul Sporer

3:15

He's been cooking since last May with the 27th wOBA in baseball among 130 qualified hitters

Webster

3:19

Do you like Quantrill at Houston tonight?

Paul Sporer

3:19

No I would pass on that

3:19

Is Franmil a drop in 12 teamers? I could also drop Grichuk, A. Gimenez, Gorman, or Vaughn.

Paul Sporer

3:19

Yes, I'm fine w/any of those leaning Gimenez if the SBs help

Char's #1 Fan

Junis going changeup heavy in the first inning!!!!!

Paul Sporer

3:23

Joey Bart was behind the dish in that season debut when the changeup debuted as a weapon. He hasn't thrown it much since, even with Bart drawing another start since then. After his 2nd outing, Nick asked him about the changeup usage and Junis said he just follows his catcher so if Bart and Casali aren't feeling it with the change, Junis is unlikely to shake to it

Rick

3:23

1.Will Brujan start hitting before he gets sent down again.

Paul Sporer

3:26

It's still only 66 PA so I'm definitely not out, but he is going to get sent down soon if something doesn't change. Even some loud outs would help at this juncture.

Re: Chapman

3:27

Quick follow-up, you're suggesting a rebound is likely in the cards there, yeah?

Paul Sporer

3:28

No no, not necessarily. It'll get better but even w/the improved K%, his profile is still prone to low BABIPs so I'm not sure the AVG will rebound a ton (maybe .220 rest of way)

3:30

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 tomorrow morning at 9:30am CT reviewing today's boxscores and you can definitely come by and ask questions about fantasy there. Have a good one, y’all!
