Mentioned in the chart that he’s been turning things around. Is there anything in his profile to suggest he can continue this recent success?

Paul Sporer

2:13

A rarity for today's game, he's leaning more on his fastball, up 11% in usage over these last 4 when he's looked great: 2.22 ERA/0.86 WHIP/19% K-BB including a 24% K rate which is 7 pts north of his season mark. Also not a bunch of rollover lineups: CHC, TOR, SDP, LAD ... CHC/TOR underperforming, but it's not OAK/MIA level stuff that he was just beating up on

Please tell me the Orioles move some bats. I think it was their GM talking up Stowers the other day, as a MLB talent either on their roster or someone elses. Guy is 26! Give him some reps on someone's team plz! Same for guys like Kjerstad, Norby, Mayo, etc.

Paul Sporer

2:14

They gotta. If they had enough pitching, I'd say keep the depth and just be stacked af, but they have an abundance of bats that they can move for a big arm or a couple solid arms w/out depleting the system. They're in an amazing position

Jesse Winker has been a huge asset for me since Trout disappeared, but he's been losing PT to James Wood/Harold Ramirez. Any hope for him to get full-time PT back if he and/or Lane Thomas are moved, or do you see a situation where a buying team will also platoon?

Paul Sporer

2:15

If he's traded, it's almost CERTAINLYYY to platoon.

As a Tigers fan, would you accept a package of Basallo and Povich for Skubal or too light?

Paul Sporer

2:15

Too light. 2 of Basallo/Holliday/Kjerstad/Cowser to pick up the phone

2:15

Any chance Adolis can be a little productive the ros ?

Paul Sporer

2:16

Told y'all he wasn't good! Only took 3 amazing seasons to come true, lololol

Nah, he's struggling, but it's in his range of outcomes meaning I don't think he's too far off his normal self so he could click in for sure

If it was guaranteed that River Ryan stays in the rotation ROS, who would you prefer btw him and Luis Ortiz?

Paul Sporer

2:17

Gotta be Ryan for team context if IP potential is equal

McBoatface

Appreciate your thoughts on a Tough roster call when Lewis returns this week. Who's the cut? Nootbar, Keith, Gimenez, Horwitz, Hoskins. We cound both BA and OBP, as well as traditional categories.

Paul Sporer

2:18

Frick on a stick that is hard!!

2:19

(what if I just ended the chat and didn't answer it? lol)

2:20

I think it's gotta be Gimenez unless you desperately need the SBs

SONA

vabich!

Just kidding thanks so much Paul!

You stashing McLain in a 12tm cat playoff league?

Paul Sporer

2:20

If I've got the spot, I'm definitely down

Yankee E

2:21

Stashing the Martian with the mess of the Yankees lineup even with Stanton back soon?

Paul Sporer

2:21

Yeah, too talented not to see how it plays out w/Jasson Dominguez

Guest

2:22

is the Rice train over? even in certain 12t keeper formats

Paul Sporer

2:22

No no no it's just getting going! I love Ben Rice!

2:23

I know he's platooning, but he's C-eligible without having to catch and the power has been impressive. The .206 BABIP is wild and I don't think it'll hold. Stay the course, he's leading off vR for NYY!

2:25

OK y'all, I gotta head out. Thank you so much for coming through. Back next week and we can break down the deadline to see if we can find some gems after the dust settles!
