Is Bibee a #1 in the making? Guy has been turning it on!

Paul Sporer

1:57

It's not just because their names are similarish but yeah I think he could be their next Bieber in terms of his ceiling. Love Bibee and glad to see him outrun his early moderate bumps (the frustrating part was that his only bad starts seemed to be v. bad teams, lol)

1:58

Well, it's not HORRIBLE timing since it's almost been an hour, but my computer is force starting an update so I'm gonna speed through a handful more before that happens. If I stop short on an answer, that's why, lol

AL Central Casting

Do you think Jhoan Duran will find his missing velocity? Can he still succeed with less heat, or is he going to have to adapt?

Paul Sporer

1:59

He's still averaging over 100 so I think even a small dip is sustainable for him as long as any drop is just an indicator of him being compromised health-wise

Think Jhonkensy Noel or Tena will be up anytime soon for the Guardians?

Paul Sporer

2:00

Noel is tearing the cover off the ball (18 HRs, 136 wRC+) and Tena has been a dual threat w/14 HR & 10 SB so both should eventually be up when spots open. Right now there isn't a clear spot for either, though

What are you doing with Goldschmidt? 12 team mixed

Paul Sporer

2:01

I think he is cuttable depending who you can pick up

Guest

Noel just called up

Paul Sporer

2:01

Oh let's gooo!!!!

Will Povich stay with Baltimore? He's held his own so far

Paul Sporer

2:01

For the short-term, yes, but he will have to be better if he wants to stick around for the entire summer bc they will almost assuredly add at the deadline

Mr. Jones and me

Hey Paul, love hearing you on Fantasy Sports Radio! Should I be actively shopping Jared Jones before Pittsburgh announces some kind of shutdown plan? I feel like the clock is ticking.

Paul Sporer

2:03

Thanks so much! There was some good news on that in today's Mining the News w/them saying they won't do a hard shutdown but rather a management plan that can hopefully get them through the year https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/mining-the-news-6-26-24/

Any thoughts on Brandon Pfaadt? They need to just pull him after 6 innings.

Paul Sporer

2:06

Yeah I think they want him to become someone they can rely for 6-7 consistently, but there are some growing pains. I really like him overall, though

2:07

OK, literally seconds before the update clicks in and restarts the computer. Thanks for coming. I know I failed on the SP rankings for Tuesday again so we can discuss 'em here, but they are truly about done & will be up this week. So more of a July update than June! See y'all next week!

Mike

Is Noel as must add, particularly if you need OF?

Paul Sporer

2:07

If it's 5 OF especially... more borderline for 3 OF... intriguing power though

ok bye for real!
