Austin Meadow's Ass

3:33

lamb or stanton for the next 3 years?

Paul Sporer

3:33

That's closer than some may realize, but I'm still leaning Stanton

3:33

Paul, why won't the Blue Jays sign Bautista? They need each other right?

Paul Sporer

3:33

I think they will eventually

Sulzer

3:34

Hey Paul, what are your thoughts on Baez this year? Does he play daily?

Paul Sporer

3:34

I think so, yes. I think it'll still be volatile, there's still a lot of swing and miss in his game. .260/20/15

Saul

3:34

Who do you like better for 2017: Murphy or Odor (plus $5 in the auction)

Paul Sporer

3:34

Murphy

Jamie

3:34

Can Hellickson have a similar season to last year? Is he a solid 4-5 pitcher in an NL Only?

Paul Sporer

3:35

Ya he can repeat. I'd be OK with him as my NL Only #5

3:35

For my last keeper (would be round 6): Braun or Wil Myers (Points lg)?

Paul Sporer

3:35

Myers

Teddy

3:35

If you had to decide between Freddie Freeman (10th round) and JD Martinez (20th round) as your utility spot, which would you rather have?

Paul Sporer

3:36

JD. The round disparity is too large to ignore. Plus, I'm not even sure Freeman is automatically a lot better than JD in the first place

3:36

RTJ 3? You enjoying as much as I am?

Paul Sporer

3:36

I am, yes. I've given it a couple spins and plan to keep listening this weekend

Peter

3:36

I'm in a league that plays LF/CF/RF as separate OF spots. I know it's a weird quirk, but where does Benintendi set up in the LF rankings of the future? Any obvious candidates you'd rather have than him?

Paul Sporer

3:37

I think it's a growing quirk. I like Beni in this format bc LF is a bit scarce. I'm not sure exactly where I'd rank him, but he has the green up arrow next to his name for sure.

Thomas

3:37

How much do you like David Dahl this year? Know it is hard to predict his playing time with the Rockies OF situation unsettled (and Rockies decision making being ... uh ... opaque), but if he gets a shot to play every day, what chance do you give him to continue his hot numbers from last year? (Seemed like he was overachieving in AVG given his K% and SwStr%)

Paul Sporer

3:38

Love him, actually. Unlikely to repeat a .404 BABIP, but he's in the right place to have an overachieving AVG despite some swing and miss

YKnotDisco?!

3:38

Is JD Drew a good example of a overhyped prospect who didn't live up to initial expectations but when all was said and done, he turned out to be very underrated?

Paul Sporer

3:38

For sure. He had a lot of good seasons and too many have a perception that he just wasn't that good. The bottom line was still a very strong 128 wRC+

Stonewall

3:39

Please rank these keepers all prices equal ops and qs the extra categories....Kepler....Domingo Santana....joc....keirmaier....cotton....Paxton

Paul Sporer

3:39

Joc, Paxton, Kiermaier, Kepler, Cotton, Domingo

Noah

3:39

Anyone taking a chance on Brett Anderson?

Paul Sporer

3:39

I'm all set

Dave

3:39

Best SS keeper: Matt Duffy, Didi Gregorious or Jose Reyes?

Paul Sporer

3:39

Gregorius

Eric

3:39

What do you think about Desclafani? Is he a good mid-rotation guy or more of a back-end fantasy starter?

Paul Sporer

3:40

He's building on something. Almost made the Leap Year column. I wouldn't be surprised by a full season of 3.50/1.25

McStreamy

3:40

Got offered Profar, Joc Peterson and two draft picks that could turn into Chance Sisco or Matt chapman for David Dahl in a pts dynasty, thoughts?

Paul Sporer

3:42

As much as I love Dahl, I think this is a good offer. I still have hope for Profar (he's only 24) and I've always been a Pederson guy. It's not unreasonable to envision Pederson matching Dahl minus some AVG points, so go ahead and take the deal

Sulzer

3:42

In a keeper/dynasty points lg, swap Strasburg for trea turner? Kershaw is my #1.

Paul Sporer

3:42

Yes

Martin

3:42

Pick four keepers from this list. Machado, MadBum, Springer, Kluber, Myers, Desmond

Paul Sporer

3:43

Would love to find a way to finagle Desmond in Coors onto the list, but I just can't: MM, Springer, Kluber, Madbum

Dumpster Fiers

3:43

Haven't been able to listen to the podcast yet. What were the thoughts on Ty Blach?

Paul Sporer

3:44

Eno spoke well of him as a backend IP-eater type. Said he could push Cain out if Cain keeps doing what we've seen the last couple seasons

Zach

3:44

H2H points keeper league Sano or Dahl? For a 3rd OF spot which Sano likely loses after this year

Paul Sporer

3:44

Dahl
