Hello everyone! Let's talk some baseball!

Jake

1:03

Confidence mets can still make the playoffs?

Paul Sporer

1:04

Like 20% or so... wildcard still very much in play

DR J

1:04

I know he's not coming back this year, but any information on Pasquantino health outlook and what post labrum surgery recovery looks like?

Paul Sporer

1:04

Shoulders can be really tough on power and he already wasn't a premiere power guy... I'm nervous for Vinnie P

Phil

1:04

12 team H2H, torn between Henry Davis and Alvarez. Who do you prefer ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:04

I'll go with Alvarez's power

Guillermo

1:04

I’m dropping Ty France, as I needed him for solid average and OPS. Who is the best option for those needs; Colton Cowser, Harrison Bader or Tommy Pham?

Paul Sporer

1:05

Let's ride that Pham hot hand

Phil

1:05

Emmet Sheehan - is he a just a streamer for 12 team H2H or can he be more?

Paul Sporer

1:06

He can be, but isn't yet... just a streamer for now

Maybe team streamer so you're cutting him when you don't start him

TonyToniTone

1:06

Manoah…. You back in after 10ks in AA?

Paul Sporer

1:06

Not necessarily, no. I think I read that he still had a 50% Ball rate

Rabbit

1:07

Hey Paul...happy belated 4th!! Are you a blow things up all night kinda guy, or a why does everybody have to make all this noise kind of guy?!?

Paul Sporer

1:07

The latter almost exclusively in support of my dogs. Charlotte isn't too bothered by all of it, but Henry definitely doesn't dig it

Hank Scorpio

1:07

Hey Paul, thanks as always for the chat. Are you taking a flier on Cowser in a 12tm 6x6 roto? Other options are T. Ward, T. Pham, H. Bader, and progressively worse team streamers

Paul Sporer

1:08

Cowser has some major upside, but I'd probably just run with Pham

Phil

1:08

Stanton or Colas for the second half?

Paul Sporer

1:10

I'll lean Colas, especially if CHW commits to him for the whole 2H

Bandon Brelt

1:10

losing jazz and thairo over the same weekend really stung. trying to figure out a replacement 2B, would you go Morel or Kim in roto?

Paul Sporer

1:10

Going Kim there. 10 HR/14 SB and leading off!

Massimo

1:11

Are you a believer in Skubal as a 10 team hold for a QS league?

Paul Sporer

1:11

Worth a gamble

Joseph

1:11

Hey Paul. I know Bryce Miller gets more prospect love, but Woo's underlying metrics are looking pretty good. Seems like he's developing more rapidly...

Paul Sporer

1:11

Oh yeah, plenty of love for Woo. That said, he will be managed in the 2H -- https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/mining-the-news-7-5-23/

Mike F

1:12

FGPts league, just traded Gavin Williams at $1 for 2.5 months of Devers. My pitching is stacked. I didn't make a mistake did I? Flags fly forever?

Paul Sporer

1:12

Oh yeah, this is exactly the kind of move you do when pushing in for a title

Michael

1:13

Any concerns about Harper's lack of power thus far?

Paul Sporer

1:14

Oh for sure, but that's probably due in part to coming back so early from the injury. At least he's delivering everywhere else, though, so he's still very playable

Second base

1:14

Gimenez or Gorman ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:18

I'd probably play the ol' Gimenez if I need SBs and Gorman if I need power line, but if that isn't a consideration, I lean toward Gorman

ADHD+

1:19

If position doesn't matter, do you like Cowser or Volpe ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:19

Volpe's had some issues but the fantasy juice (HR/SB) has always been there

Francona

1:20

Should I be encouraged by Gavin's start vs Atlanta despite the unimpressive stat line?

Paul Sporer

1:20

Yeah given the opponent, I thought it was pretty decent. 3 HR is tough, but again, ATL is a brutal matchup

Scotchy

1:20

What are we thinking about EDLC so far? Overall numbers are looking good, but a lot of K's

Paul Sporer

1:22

That's Elly in a nutshell! And it will breed some cold spells especially when that .433 BABIP dries up. That said, it'll be a bit like Volpe where even when his slash line is struggling, there will be fantasy heat w/the HR & SB

Keith Sweat

1:22

Dude. SKUBAL! That is all

Paul Sporer

1:22

It was so nice watching him pitch well and then E-Rod back today!!!!
