I play in a strange league with rentals. I just traded 10 games of Mike Trout for #1 waiver priority in order to grab Dinelson Lamet. Good move, or great move?

Paul Sporer

3:02

Sure?! Really tough to get a feel for that without being in the league

Re: Castellanos: $10 in an Ottoneu Fangraphs Points league and I am targeting him in a trade. Considering Desmond (18) + others for Tanaka (19) + Castellanos.

Paul Sporer

3:02

I can get behind that

Steve

3:04

Blackmon for Trea Turner and Jose Ramirez fair in 12 team dynasty? Which side?

Paul Sporer

3:04

yeah, I'd do that for Blackmon

Prefer the pair

Andrew

Dealing Kershaw ($41) for Sale ($26) in a keeper? $4 inflation and the most expensive pitchers are typically in the low $40s

Paul Sporer

3:05

I see what you're going for there. Take the savings without TOOO much difference in production

Texas Dolly

3:05

You a fan of Whit Merrifield? He's been quietly good the past few weeks.

Paul Sporer

3:05

playing time and doing a bit of everything, so I don't mind him in deep leagues

H2h points

3:06

Trade leake for VV in 12 team points or is this the wrong format to make that deal

Paul Sporer

3:06

Ya I think it's not the best format for it. Leake usually excels in Pts, right?

Larry David

3:06

Anibal got an upgrade in The Show?!

Paul Sporer

3:06

LOL he got moved to SP, I think

but ya

he should be a common

My infield is Pujols/CDavis, LeMahieu, Aldemys and KSeager. At what point should I start to freak out?

Paul Sporer

3:07

Honestly, I wouldn't be too worried with that crew

Rudy

3:07

Hi Paul! Thanks for the chat. In a 9 team roto, I'm like 4th in steals (I have Betts, Hamilton and Xander as my basestealers after getting Hamilton 2 weeks ago.) I'm also dead last in homers and RBI. Would you trade away Hamilton right now for Justin Upton/Souza, or wait until Hamilton gets some more steals then deal him? Sorry for the long question!

Paul Sporer

3:07

That deal works. Definitely like getting two power-first bats

3:08

You buying Sonny Gray rounding into form?

Paul Sporer

3:08

I am, got something on him coming up

Alex

3:08

How are you feeling about Cotton returning? Think he's worth an add in a deep 12-teamer.

Paul Sporer

3:08

Loved him coming into the year and not off the train about a few bad starts

Steve

3:09

Charlie Blackmon for Trea Turner in 12 team keeper. Who ya got?

Paul Sporer

3:09

Favor Blackmon in a vacuum

3:09

OPS league- Severino/Springer or Tanaka/Stanton?

Paul Sporer

3:09

Prefer Side B, but it's a fair deal

Bless You Boys

3:09

Is it safe to use Tanaka tonight?

Paul Sporer

3:09

I have a hard time sitting him even in the face of the ugly numbers

3:11

Those asking about Lamet, Jeff took a look at him: http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/quick-looks-lamet-mejia/

Re: Frazier. Do you prefer him to Harrison for fantasy? Is the difference that large?

Paul Sporer

3:11

Greatly prefer Harrison

Jason

3:11

. hg ;pu,uyu;'. b. My daughter typed that. Think she was wondering if Starlin Castro is back to being a top 50 fantasy player for now and the future?

Paul Sporer

3:13

LOL, tell her that Top 50 seems high, but I dig Castro so I'm not necessarily looking to sell off this big start

Jeru the damaja

3:14

Who do you think has the higher ceiling for the next 3-4 seasons - Glasnow or Berrios?

(takes a min or so to build up...but oh so good!)

Paul Sporer

3:14

Berrios for sure. Song is fire

Tony

3:14

Hadn't realized that Shark ran a 44/1 K/BB this month... I see he's ranked #54 and a "sometimes start" on your latest rankings... is he climbing?

Paul Sporer

3:15

Spot-Start, but yes he's been great. His worst starts are at ARI and COL, though, so I'm still benching again at those venues
