Let's go ahead and get started!
Minty

Is Stanton a buy low, or just wait for next year guy?
Paul Sporer
11:30
I mean, it won't get much lower. Ya, I think I'd take a shot at a nice discount
The Man With The Plan
11:30
Yo Paul, whats up?
Paul Sporer
11:30
Yoooo!
Jon
11:30
Hey Paul, do you think Iglesias could get the Reds closer job when he returns?
Paul Sporer
11:31
He could, yes. Wonder if they might avoid that, though, so it doesn't become harder to gte him back to starting. But yes, he really could
Yankee Doodle
11:31
Miller and Chapman for Schwarber. Who says no?
Paul Sporer
11:31
Not sure the Yankees are moving both for a guy who just ripped his knee up
Rob
11:31
Should we be worried about Taijuan's health right now?
Paul Sporer
11:32
Latest is that he's on track for Sunday, but this is another little injury. Those things pile up. I'm a little concerned
Joe Beef
11:32
What is a fair return right now for Alex Bregman in an AL-only keeper league?
Paul Sporer
11:33
I have no idea. That kind of question is entirely dependent on your market. Should return a solid piece, though
Dave
11:33
Any hesitation starting Nola today against a Blue Jays team that is heating up?
Paul Sporer
11:33
Nervous just bc it's TOR, but nah you gotta start him. He's been SO good
The Decadent Moose
11:33
How does McHugh stifle the Cardinals for 7 innings with an ERA close to 5? (I think it dropped .7 last night)
Paul Sporer
11:35
A 5 ERA doesn't mean you allow 5 every time out. He has a 4.89 this year and it includes 5 starts of a 60+ game score (anything over 60 is really good). Go look at someone like Colby Lewis, a true #5. To make 33 starts in this league with an upper-4.00s or even low-5.00s still requires a lot of good starts
Jon
11:35
How would you rank these schlubs ROS? Nelson, Eovaldi, Liriano, Gausman, DeSclafani
Paul Sporer
11:37
Liriano, Eovaldi, Gausman, Nelson, Desc
Jon
11:37
Thoughts on Blake Snell ROS?
Paul Sporer
11:37
I think he'll have some rookie volatility, but strong enough to merit all-formats rosterability
Saves Vulture
11:38
Can we call Steve Cishek a solid closer now or do we expect bad times ahead? Who gets the call if he gets the boot?
Paul Sporer
11:38
HRs are an issue and that's awful for a closer, but ya I think we can feel OK about him. I drafted him on the cheap in a couple lgs
Hispano Bork
11:38
¡Hola, amigo!
Paul Sporer
11:39
Hi!
mtsw
11:39
You don't still do the weekly pitching matchup report do you? Is there anywhere you know of that does an ordinal ranking of overall bullpen strength like the report featured?
Paul Sporer
11:39
I don't know of a place. I could be bringing that back to RG, though, so stay tuned
A. Reitz
11:39
Thoughts on Max Kepler? Is he up for good? ROS projections?
Angry Carl
11:41
Paul! Thanks for covering Eno...Giolito, A Reyes, Taillon, Snell, Glasnow, Berrios in the right order for dynasty?
Paul Sporer
11:42
for dynasty so not just this year... Gio, Taillon, Berrios, Snell, Reyes, Glasnow ... tough to find much separation in that group, too
AL Pitching Coach
11:43
I can't figure how out good Matt Shoemaker really is, and I'm having trouble deciding if I should trade for him. Thoughts?
Paul Sporer
11:44
Depends what you're giving. But we have seen an extended run of success before. There are skills improvements backing the run, too. I feel comfortable trusting him
Dave
11:45
In a 16 team 6x6 league with K/BB being the additional category, which high K and high BB guy who do you prefer ROS? Pomeranz or McCullers?
Paul Sporer
11:45
Pomy
Wood
11:45
Rank in a 10-teamer 5x5: snell, taillon, Paxton, fulmer. Thanks!
Paul Sporer
11:45
Fulmer, Paxton, Taillon, Snell

Hi Bork!
A. Reitz
11:45
Any chance the Dodgers promote Jharel Cotton or Frankie Montas soon? Bolsiner/Stripling...surely they are better than that.
Paul Sporer
11:47
Montas will probably get a chance soon. I don't think those 2 are discernibly better than Bols/Strip, though
Montas has nice upside, but unlikely to be at his upside upon arrival
Connecting…
