You and Eno mentioned 20% for Treinen. I'm strong on closers but should I put in a lowball bid just to keep my leaguemates honest?

Paul Sporer

3:22

Definitely

Saves are easy to trade

Brian

3:22

Dyson or Watson - been offered the same trade - with the only difference is dyson/watson. who is safer?

Paul Sporer

3:22

Prefer to keep Dyson

Bruce

Charlie Morton was never more than servicable at best. Now he back! to being maybe serviceable. Why is everyone going bananas

Paul Sporer

3:22

Scroll up.

Added velo, started missing bats. If those changes are legit, there's big upside

Guest

3:23

What are your thoughts on a rotation of Cueto/CMart/ Salazar / Fulmer / Gausman / Samardzjia?

Paul Sporer

3:23

I like it quite a bit

Linus

DeShields or David Peralta for my final 10-team OF slot?

Paul Sporer

3:23

DeShields' speed potential makes him a better gamble, IMO.

12 team mixer. Vince Velazquez was just dropped (don't ask me why). How much FAAB is he worth pre-season?

Paul Sporer

3:25

25%? I'm a fan for sure, but in a 12-team, he's not that nuts of a pickup

Bored

3:26

Would you rather have Wheeler, Ryu, Liriano, or E. Santana as a pick up for the next couple weeks?

Paul Sporer

3:26

Liriano

NL wOBA, dealt $10 Pollock and $2 Piscotty for $30 Stanton, giving me an OF of Stanton, $20 Polanco, $15 Puig. Too expensive & risky?

Paul Sporer

3:27

That's not a bad deal. Pollock has his own risk, too.

3:27

How optimistic (if at all) are you about Buxton this year after his September performance?

Paul Sporer

3:27

Still think he has insane upside

Astro

3:27

Who gets the lion's share of catching for the Astros, Gattis or McCann? Will they rest Beltran often to get Gattis in the lineup more? PA for Gattis?

Paul Sporer

3:27

McCann, but Gattis will get his time

Big Tuna

3:27

If you come out of a draft thinking you're a little short in one category, do you immediately try to trade or wait it out?

Paul Sporer

3:27

Wait it out

3:28

See if the wire offers something or maybe your guys out perform. I don't trade until mid-May at earliest in most cases

Big Tuna

3:28

Is it stupid to carry 4 pitchers on the bench with only 6 spots? Should I be taking shots on upside bats?

Paul Sporer

3:28

No, pitchers more likely to pop so might as well get some lottery tickets

Bruce

3:28

Do any reverse leagues out there, like the old BP Hacking Mass?

Paul Sporer

3:28

I don't know of any, but Hacking Mass was fun

Chance

3:28

His Goldy, Correa, and Osuna for my Bryant, Strasburg, Addy Russell. 10-team redraft. Take it or leave it?

Paul Sporer

3:29

I'd take it

Big Tuna

3:29

I got mocked for taking Duda/Moss in the 21st and 22nd rounds of a 12 team OPS, but I assumed one might pop. Did I screw up?

Paul Sporer

3:29

No, not a screw up

Adam

3:29

9 tm NL-Only roto - my bullpen is Kenley, Addison Reed, Capps, Hector Rondon and Alex Wood (drafted as a SP, then news came down he'd be in pen). Drop Wood to add Sergio Romo as Kenley insurance, or is Romo likely to stay in 8th if KJ gets hurt?

Paul Sporer

3:30

I'm OK getting Romo

Big Tuna

3:31

I got cute in my draft and missed my crush player (Cotton). Do I try and trade for him or just admit defeat?

Paul Sporer

3:32

aw that's always tough. you can put a feeler, but don't overpay or get crazy

kdallas

3:32

favorite soon-to-be closer stash: Neris, Bush, or (wildcard)?

Paul Sporer

3:32

Neris
