Kidding of course, but maybe Sevvy? Porcello? Can ask for a good arm for sure. E.Rodriguez?

Cindy

2:21

Did you get a chance to watch Kluber yesterday? Haven't seen him look so good in the regular season in a long time. Was nice to see.

Paul Sporer

2:22

I didn't see all of it. I'm not worried about Kluber in general, but I think we might have to discount starts v. OAK as markers of success lol

The Kyd

2:22

Traded Bruce for Cole. My other arms are deGrom, Tanaka, Stras, Matz, Manaea, and Nola. Will I be happy come year's end?

Paul Sporer

2:22

For Gerrit Cole? Ya I dig that for sure

Louis

2:23

Pitching staff's been ravaged by injury and general ineptitude (Gio is my defacto ace now...). Have OF and power to spare. Trade K Davis for Pomeranz?

Paul Sporer

2:24

Man, I'd want someone more reliable than that for Khrush. I like Pomy some, but he's not terribly different than Gio in terms of reliability. Shoot higher. I'll mention Eduardo Rodriguez again here. He's coming off a terrible start so maybe he's more gettable bc of it

I'm Fragile

2:24

I can't remember any year where so many players were hurt in the first two months of a season. I know the 10-day DL has played a part but this is ridiculous. If Nelson Cruz turns out to have a broken hand, I might cry.

Boris

2:25

What to do with Castellanos? 10team roto non keeper league

Paul Sporer

2:25

Ya it's definitely nuts - http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/everyone-is-on-the-disabled-list-right-... Man oh man, I really hope Cruz is OK, too

In 10 team, you can cut

Slamboni

2:25

Who do you like better long term for an AL Dynasty roto: Benintendi or Mazara? Mazara is cheaper, but has one less year of control

Paul Sporer

2:26

I honestly don't have a real split between the two long-term. I'd lean slightly toward Mazara, but I've been impressed with Beni. I know he's slumping, but I think he'll come out of it

FYI Guy

2:26

Hey FYI, you quit more fantasy leagues this last year than I actively played in the last 5 years.

Paul Sporer

2:26

That means you're smart, lol. I was overloaded for sure.

Pop Quiz

2:26

True or False: Astros vs. Cubs will be meeting in the 2017 World Series.

Paul Sporer

2:27

I'll just say false bc that's the smart answer on June 2nd.

Rick

2:27

Can Marwin Gonzalez be a .280/.340 guy ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:27

Ya I don't think that's out of bounds at all.

Shawn

2:27

I know the walks, but Danny Salazar peripherals don't look THAT bad. Buy low for you? Assuming he's not hurt of course

Paul Sporer

2:28

What are you including in "peripherals" if you're discounting the walks out of hand?! Ks are allll he has. BB and HR are a nightmare and I just can't trust him right now

David

2:37

Is Sano possibly a sell-high candidate in a dynasty league?

Choos on First

2:37

Is this a good time to buy low on Quintana?

Paul Sporer

2:38

hmmm

technical difficulties

oh there's the questions lol

i had to click that Sano Q like 80 times

2:39

Yes on both questions as I think you can sell Sano for something nice and Q can't get any lower so the price should be very enticing

2:40

Obviously Quintana is allowing far too many HRs, but beyond that I just don't see why he's struggling sooo much, at least on the surface. Maybe I'll dive deeper into his numbers and see if I can find anything

The Kyd

2:40

Drop Franco for Bird in 10-tm mixer?

Paul Sporer

2:40

Surely there's someone better if you're dropping Franco?

Bill

2:40

Would you pick up Carlos Rodon in a 12 team mixed league?

Paul Sporer

2:41

As long as I can DL him or there's a reasonable bench size

Nittanychris

2:41

Thoughts on Junior Guerra? Will he fly under the radar and provide really good value ROS? Seems like people just assume major regression because he turned a corner at a later age. I'm not so sure...

Paul Sporer

2:42

Yes, I do think he'll be good ROS. I'm a big fan and was bummed when he got hurt on Opening Day. 3.30ish ERA typ

type*

Jc at the bat

2:42

10 team NL only dynasty. Bellinger is worth more than Folwer and G cole correct?

Paul Sporer

2:44

Ya, I'd think so, but it's not an out of bounds offer
