David Stearns

2:15

Should I really be still into Megill in the hopes that his sinker is a game changer?

Paul Sporer

2:15

Yeah Tylor Megill is another guy I've stayed bought in on. Has an opportunity this year so I'm running back one more time!!!

Marlins position player

2:15

Seen questions about verlander… Can scherzer still be viable?

Paul Sporer

2:16

Absolutely, I pair 'em together. When one goes, that's my signal for the other. Both can still be very useful when healthy. It's just that health piece that will likely be tough to consistently bet on

Trent

2:16

I can land Freddie for my Xavier Edwards + two of my mos

Paul Sporer

2:17

Unless you desperately need the SBs, I'd take the shot. Classic buy low on Freeman and worth exploring

glasslater

2:17

Any fantasy interest to Davis Martin or Sean Newcomb? Wonder if Newcomb could finally turn a corner via the sox pitching lab

Paul Sporer

2:17

Newk way more than Martin, but still tempered to deeper leagues

Fried Rice

2:17

Any chance ben rice gets catcher eligibility?

Paul Sporer

2:17

Smallll chance. JC Escarra won the backup role and he's a legit backstop

Utility

2:17

Would you clog up utility with Manzardo or Joc in an AL OBP daily league, or not worth the roster issues?

Paul Sporer

2:17

No I'm open to either. Big fan of both. Been taking Manzo in many lgs this year

tumtum

2:18

Judge feels like a lot of helium. Is it crazy to worry it's not the same this season?

Paul Sporer

2:19

It's not crazyyyy, but the only real concern I have is health. And even that isn't some grave concern as he's logged 600+ PA in 3 of the last 4 seasons

tumtum

Mike Clevinger a legit option of CWS to close?

Paul Sporer

2:19

Unfortunately, yes

Jack Handy

2:19

Deep Thoughts on SP. Carrasco or Warren for NYY? Jose Soriano over both?

Paul Sporer

2:20

Warren over Cookie and Sori over both. I wantttt Carrasco to be successful bc he's a great story to root for, but I'm just not confident that will be the case

Worse than Schlittler

2:20

I know it's not relevant to like opening day, but isn't it kinda weird that Adalberto Mondesi basically soft retired an there hasn't been a single news item about him in like 2 years?

Paul Sporer

2:20

Yeah it is crazy how he basically just disappeared

Rickey

2:20

How would you rank Heliot Ramos, Bleday and Soderstrim?

Paul Sporer

2:20

In that order... fan of all 3, though, so very little split b/w 'em

Nostradamus

2:21

Bold Prediction: Both Dairon Blanco or Jose Caballero are in top 10 SB in 2025 as part-time players. Buying it?

Paul Sporer

2:23

I buy it as a viable Bold Prediction meaning it has real boldness to it while also have a path to legitimacy.

Mr. Burrito

2:23

Victor Robles. Mirage or legit?

Paul Sporer

2:24

Miragit? lol... I looove Robles so I'm rooting hard for him, but I'm a bit suspect that he can tame T-Mobile all year. Not too expensive to draft and enjoy the SBs but I'm keeping expectations tempered

JDW

2:24

Hang onto R. Weathers or drop for Nick Martinez in a 12tm 5x5 standard ?

Paul Sporer

2:24

I'm cutting. Was on Weathers coming into the season, but not holding him through this injury when better options exist on the wire

Rob

2:24

Wrapping up a slow draft (just in time!) ... last pick, Verlander or Tylor Megill

Paul Sporer

2:27

Hmmm, they open at CIN and at HOU, respectively, then JV gets SEA/CIN at home (assuming he's the #2 guy) while Megill gets TOR/MIA at home... I lean JV ever so slightly here

2:29

Wish I could run another hour as y'all loaded the queue, but I gotta finish preparing for my Main Event draft tonight and put the finishing touches on my Bold Predictions. You can come watch my draft on Twitch starting at 7pm CT and I do answer questions there as much as I can -- https://twitch.tv/sporer -- see y'all next week and enjoy opening weekend!!!
