Is Steve Moya a pick up in a std 12 team mixed league?

Paul Sporer

3:59

Nah, probably too shallow unless you have some huge reserve roster

Whats that Odor

4:00

What does Piscotty ROS, currently have him at 1st, is Napoli or Shaw a better option at 1st

Paul Sporer

4:00

.280/12 HR... not typical 1B power, but I prefer him to the others

Bart

4:00

With AJ Griffen returning from the DL, who should I drop if any, I Kennedy, Roark or Moore?

Paul Sporer

4:01

Kennedy, but he and Griff aren't TOO far apart

For a friend

4:01

Darn, Norm isn't available in my ww

Paul Sporer

4:01

Rob Dibble out there?

RRBR

4:01

Puig or Heyward ROS? Points league where walks count. No penalty for K's.

Paul Sporer

4:01

Puig. Didn't you ask that already? :)

Colin

4:01

How many innings can we expect out of Michael Fulmer going forward? I feel like now is the time to deal him.

Paul Sporer

4:01

Well maybe not NOW after the lame start.

4:02

I'd say another 80 or so? So 13-14 starts

Pepperoni

4:03

Pomeranz (RP eligibility) or Hendricks in 10 team NL Only points keeper league?

Paul Sporer

4:03

Pomy

Bart

4:03

I was offered Miggie for my Harper. Can you think of any good reasons to make the trade in a12 tm h2h mixed 5 player keeper lg?

Paul Sporer

4:04

Love Miggy, but I'd just sit tight w/Harper

Mike

4:04

Keep forever dynasty league - Margot or Lamb? Beltre or Paxton?

Paul Sporer

4:05

Lamb and Beltre. I know it's keep forever, but I'm not getting too ahead of myself on Paxton and starting to plan beyond this year w/him

Eric

4:05

As a Red Sox fan I'd ask you to please not joke about Benintendi being traded. Thanks

Paul Sporer

4:05

LOL I can see if it they get some huge trade going

Jackie T.

4:05

Can Fister keep being a QSs machine, or is it better to roll with higher upside like Paxton in a QSs league?

Paul Sporer

4:06

Fister has been throwing well and he usually puts up the innings, but I'd still go Paxton. i rarely pick a pitcher specifically for QS

Gonna wrap up here shortly, y'all. Not quite a marathon, but I've got some things that need to get done

Pipes

4:06

Patience on Giolito? Nice K rate but he's also sporting a 2:1 K/BB rate which is not really major league ready. He turns 22 in two weeks which isn't young for his level. So yeah, in a thousand dollar buy in league, my patience is running thin.

Paul Sporer

4:07

Maybe you shouldn't have drafted a 21-year old who had all of 47 IP at Double-A coming into the year if you NEEDED him to perform then? Seems like more of an expectations problem than anything Giolito is doing.

SoupDawg

4:07

Paul, how much patience should I have with Starlin Castro? In 14 team points lg my wire options include Peralta, Jose Ramirez, and Brad Miller.

Paul Sporer

4:08

He hasn't been great, but are the others all that much better? I still lean Castro

Billdo

4:08

You more of a Twitter or Facebook guy?

Paul Sporer

4:08

Twitter

Alex

4:08

Not really a fantasy question but why do teams insist on playing someone just because they payed them a lot like a Ken Giles in April or a Prince Fielder? Seems like a sunk cost to me, do they not get that?

Paul Sporer

4:10

Eh, I don't really see it that way. First off, it's not just bc they paid for 'em. Giles' skills are still pretty strong. He's had some AWFUL outings to be sure, but he's hardly a sunk cost. Plus, you need more than a month or two to just get rid of these guys. This isn't fantasy baseball. Let's just be honest, the teams know a fuckload more than we do about these players, Doesn't mean all their choices are 100% right, but if we were in charge, we'd have a much bigger fail rate that actual GMs

Dan

4:10

Does Lucas Giolito get points for being the nephew of the guy who created "Twin Peaks?" If not, why not?

Paul Sporer

4:10

LOL yes, that counts major in my league

PAul

4:10

Castellanos? Whats the dealio?

Paul Sporer

4:11

With due respect, what the hell does that mean? Are you wondering why he doesn't still have a .950+ OPS? Hopefully that's obvious. He wasn't going to hit THAT well for 6 months.

Russel Martin

4:11

Am I back? Top 5 C again?

Paul Sporer

4:12

Mostly back, yeah. And prob top 5 though that's as much to do with the dearth of viable C

4:12

Paul! Traded away Nola and Velasquez for Carrasco. How'd I do?

Paul Sporer

4:12

Solid!
