If the splitty comes back

3:38

lol sorry yall, had a call

jack

3:38

How much higher, if at all, would you put Berrios in your starting pitcher update after yesterday's amazing performance? Does he jump a tier, say, past Danny Salazar?

Paul Sporer

3:39

Nah, not off one start v. a team notoriously awful on the road

Ken

3:39

Please rank ROS - Happ, Zimmer, Smoak, Renfroe

Paul Sporer

3:39

I think you just did. I know Smoak is doing the most, but I'd go for the upside of the prospects ahead of him

JD15

3:39

Start Karns tonight against the Twinks?

Paul Sporer

3:39

Yep

dustyfingers

3:39

Will T. Frazier turn it around?

Paul Sporer

3:40

Ya I don't think he's this bad

Joe

3:40

Hang onto Cahill in 14 team mixed league?

Paul Sporer

3:40

Yes

Nelson

3:40

Any insight on Mariners closer situation?

Paul Sporer

3:40

I think Diaz gets it back eventually making the other guys not worth bending over backwards for

Erik

3:40

I have Rich Hill coming off the DL so have to dump a starter. Should that be Morton, Leake, or Wacha? Or just leave Hill on the DL until he proves he can handle at least two starts in a row?

Paul Sporer

3:41

Hmm, I think Leake has the lowest ceiling of that group, but seems tough to just cut him. trade possibility given the shitty SP environment?

Chris

3:41

How's Charlotte??

Paul Sporer

3:41

She's great. Snoring on the couch

benny the jet

3:41

save spec-ing....can you rank these: soria, rivero, vizcaino, kahnle

Paul Sporer

3:42

Rivero, Kahnle, Soria, Viz

JAL

3:42

any chance Tony Zych picks up some saves?

Paul Sporer

3:42

Ya he could snake a couple

Erik

3:44

Samardzija's ERA is way inflated compared to his peripherals. Should I assume he's just fine, or bail for someone like Zack Godley?

Paul Sporer

3:44

Sit tight for now

Dennis

3:44

Alex Bregman isnt who we thought he was...

Paul Sporer

3:44

Power has been very light so far, I'm not giving up just yet, though

Steve

3:45

Move Bruce for Cueto, yes? 12 teams, H2H and batter Ks do not count.

Paul Sporer

3:45

Ya that works for sure

benny the jet

3:45

gut feeling on polanco? will he come back healthier ready to mash? or will the nijuries linger and make him a disappointment the rest of the year?

Paul Sporer

3:46

I really hope so. I had such high hopes for the season and then his shoulder flared up before the season started. And now this hammy. Hope the time off serves him well. I'm staying the course with him

Steve

3:46

Strategy-wise would you bench a 1-start Kluber/Pineda type of SP for a 2-start Morton/Karns type?

Paul Sporer

3:46

JAL

3:46

Think Porcello can/will 3.50 ish RoS?

Paul Sporer

3:47

Yep

3:47

I've lost Pollock, Freeman, and Turner in the last 5 days. No question, I'm just sad.

Paul Sporer

3:47

Holy crap, that's awful. I'm sorry

Sanity

3:48

Just wanted to say thanks for the SP rankings, they're very helpful for day-to-day decisions.

Paul Sporer

3:48

You're welcome, thanks for the kind words. Here they are for those who haven't seen them: http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/starting-pitcher-ranking-update/
