where can we look to see when these chats will be held?

Paul Sporer

10:07

Front page on the right sidebar has the static schedule. I had to move from my normal time (2pm ET) bc I'm traveling today

If Jordan Walker makes the team out of ST, is he pretty much guaranteed everyday at bats even with the log jam of hitters the Cardinals have?

Paul Sporer

10:07

Yes, I'd be surprised if he was brought up to play inconsistently

With Brantley and Altuve down, does Tucker finally bat in the top of this lineup?

Paul Sporer

10:07

I certainly freakin hope!!! I think he can get that #2 spot

Poppin' Mahle

Is Jack Flaherty washed? Not sure what to make of this spring after he was awful last year and hasn't been healthy in a long time

Paul Sporer

10:09

It's been a modest spring, but a .408 BABIP is doing a lot of work there. I'm still willing to take the shot on him, but I'm keeping my expectations in check and won't be afraid to cut bait early if it's not working out

Sucker play or smart: Bumping injured studs (Harper, Altuve, Glasnow) up the draft board in Head-to-Head formats knowing they'll be ready for the playoffs?

Paul Sporer

10:09

Only if you have unlimited IL spots... otherwise definitely a sucker play

Talk me out of deGrom please! Even 120IP of him is so juicy

Paul Sporer

10:09

It's really hard because any sort of triple-digit IP output puts him in the stratosphere

YABO!!

What poker room are you crushing today when you get into vegas?

Paul Sporer

10:10

Bellagio! Hope I can crush or at least come out plus. Excited to play some live poker for sure!!!

https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy-tools/rankings/expert?pos=rp&eligibi... --- all my rankings are going to be updated today, too

10:11

In fact, I have to get going. Sorry for just over an hour, but I've got a tight schedule today. We'll be able to go longer next week as I know next weekend will have tons of drafts, too.

Am I actually showing improvement or getting everyone's hopes up again in spring training?

Paul Sporer

10:12

I think there is some improvement, but the price is rising now, too. He's a top 200 pick. I'm still worried about all the swing & miss he's shown as a big leaguer but I'm rooting for him.

Hate asking these kinds of questions, but how do you think the Mets pen shakes out now with Diaz hurt? One of Robertson or Ottavino get the role or more of a timeshare? Or does Cohen do something crazy to add someone from outside the org?

Paul Sporer

10:13

I think D-Rob's history as a closer gets him a real shot at being the guy, but if it's shaky in the first half, I definitely see them making a move

Ok y'all, I'm heading out! Thanks so much for coming out! Follow me on Twitter (@sporer), Twitch (sporer), and Instagram (p_sporer). Have a good one, y’all and good luck in your drafts this weekend!
