Good afternoon, everyone!!

Y'llo

1:44

Drop my Steve Pearce for Solarte or Wong?

Paul Sporer

1:44

Seems lateral, isn't Pearce raking lately, too?

Andrew Heaney

1:44

Do you think I make an impact for teams in the running with injured SP's?

Paul Sporer

1:45

I'm a Heaney fan overall, but I keep expectations very low with arms returning from major injury

Nathan

1:47

Is this up and running?

Paul Sporer

1:47

It is, yes

Ronnie

1:48

In a deep dynasty roto league, what's a realistic return if I were to trade Stanton right now? My team's out of it this year and I could package Stanton with Billy Hamilton to try to get a better return.

Paul Sporer

1:48

Depends what your market would yield, but you're obviously able to ask for a lot given his production

But if I give a bunch of names, I don't think it does you any good because it still depends what the leaguemates will give

Dave

1:50

I missed out on Castillo's start against the Cubs this week b/c I was worried about the lineup... is he a must-start the rest of the way?

Paul Sporer

1:54

Well he could be shutdown before the season's end bc of innings, so we still gotta go start-to-start with him, but he's been strong against a brutal slate thus far

Kosmo

1:54

You are the Mike Trout of baseball podcasters

Paul Sporer

1:54

I really appreciate that

Dalaibauma

1:54

What it do

Paul Sporer

1:54

Yoooo

Jay

1:54

Happy Friday Paul. If you had to rank the OFs for 2018, where are you putting Ronald Acuna at this point?

Paul Sporer

1:54

Friday!!! Maybe top 80 right now? I wouldn't go overboard

Kosmo

1:58

Are you buying Mazara"s recent surge

Paul Sporer

1:59

I've always been a big Mazara fan. He demolishes righties. If he can develop vL, he's a superstar

Chris

2:02

which elite pitcher do you see getting blown up tonight?

Paul Sporer

2:03

Andrew Cashner 😎

2:04

I'll selfishly say Rich Hill since I'm a Tigers fan

Chuck

2:04

So the A's have the worst defensive team in baseball. Given their love of analytics, why? Is terrible defense by guys who hit dingers the new market inefficiency?

Paul Sporer

2:05

Well I think we kinda saw that this past offseason with the sluggers not really cashing in and several sitting out there for quite some time

Jimmy

2:05

Looking to add a little power to my team for the stretch run and both K Davis and Gallo are available. Who do you prefer ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:05

Davis

Nate J.

2:05

Paul! How do you like Charlie Morton ROS?

Paul Sporer

2:09

I like Morton a lot, but health has just so consistently eluded him. But while upright, I regularly use him

2:09

How do you prepare for a podcast recording, and how much time do you spend on it?

Paul Sporer

2:11

Prepare a list of topics, record on the site we use, edit, and post -- probably 2-3 hours start-to-finish unless the recording is messed up then I either fix it or send it off to my homie to help fix it. The setup for the Saturday pod takes longer getting all the roster rates for the free agents

Chris

2:11

Which elite pitcher do you think loses tonight (kluber, hill, scherzer, kuechel)

Paul Sporer

2:11

Hill, Keuchel, Scherzer, Kluber is my order of potential blowupness

Zach

2:11

Who do you prefer ROS:

Paul Sporer

2:11

It's in white font, you have to select it to view

Chandler

2:12

I've been recently getting more interested in joining a dynasty league. As a 10-team h2h categories player is this a steep jump to make?

Paul Sporer

2:12

No, I don't think so. If you're actively seeking out a dynasty league, it seems you're aware of the depth of such a league so I don't imagine you'll be overwhelmed

The Big Trade

2:12

Paul, got a big offer in my keep forever. OBP/QS 5x5. My Bryant, Quintana and Wacha for his Blackmon and Goldschmidt. Thoughts? Hate to give up Bryant, but seems like a good offer.

Paul Sporer

2:13

Ya if you can give the pitching, it's a great deal. It is tough to give Bryant, but you're getting 2 first rounders

Mike

2:14

Sean Manaea - top ___ dynasty pitcher? 50?
