ehhhhhhhhhh

Certainly not diving in without seeing a start

CJ03

2:50

Week before fantasy playoffs start in my league and I'm losing Louis Castillo and probably Peacock. Got any young studs you've got your eye on that could replace them?

Paul Sporer

2:51

Jack Flaherty? Who else is available?

JhayDhee

2:52

Plans to stream tonight/this weekend? *Eyes emoji*

Paul Sporer

2:52

Si!

Tonight for a good while for sure

Taylor

2:52

Salvy or beef Wellington ROS? I just don't feel like salvy can swing for any power with his injured sides

Paul Sporer

2:53

I think you answered your Q there and I agree

Adam

2:53

Dropped Taillon for Glasnow (nl-only roto, hanging on to 1st but ERA and WHIP are my tightest categories). Right or dumb?

Paul Sporer

2:53

I'm OK with it. Eager to see Glasnow get another shot after tweaking in the minors

2:56

You starting gausman tonight?

Paul Sporer

2:56

If the situation merits it

Honestly y'all, context is EVERYTHING at this point

2:57

there are no universal rules for start/sit

in September

El Mago

2:57

Points league, Can keep 2 of these starting at 3 dollars, increasing $2 a year. Hoskins, Pham, C. Taylor, Luis Castillo, Luke Weaver.

Paul Sporer

2:57

Hoskins and Taylor

Big Tuna

2:57

Worried about dyson losing the closer gig?

Paul Sporer

2:58

I could see it and said on pod to spec on Strickland, but he has pitched v. well for them so it's not a HUGE chance of losing it right now

MLB THE SHOW

2:58

Good tip on the unfazed quirk. Thanks a lot!

Paul Sporer

2:59

No prob. It really helped with my patience. My lineup has 3 unfazed to start so I'm always running up the pitch count in the first inning except on the rare occasions when my opponent just pumps heaters

Michael

3:00

Sal Romano or Woodruff down the stretch?

Paul Sporer

3:01

Romano has a better shot at consistent starts since Milwaukee is competing and can't use Woodruff if he falters

SP Strategy

3:02

For the home stretch - in roto - are you a person who prefers to pitch the kitchen sink (pitch a ton of SPs to exhaust the innings cap and let the ratios fall where they will) or try and be selective an just pitch high floor, low ceiling guys to try and deflate at ERA/WHIP. League is currently bunched in ERA/WHIP and could be a 3-4 point swing either way

Paul Sporer

3:03

If I'm running out the guys I've trusted all year, then I'll continue to use them, but in a case like this, I'm unlikely to stream a ton and put myself at risk in those ratio cats

Marquez ROS

3:03

Do we believe or not believe? 10 team H2H league with playoffs starting in 2 weeks.

Paul Sporer

3:05

Man, I really like him, but v. SF, at LAD, at ARI coming up so it's a bear of a schedule. If you're OK with baseline quality starts (6 IP/3 ER), I think that's about what he'll do

3:06

Trust Tomlin in the first week of playoffs? What about Snell?

Paul Sporer

3:06

I never trust Tomlin, tbh. Just not a guy I like much. Snell I'm good with

Derek

3:07

How is depth of positions looking for 2018? From worst to best: C, 2B, OF, 1B, SS, 3B

Paul Sporer

3:08

Feel like 1B is prob deepest and OF should be higher, too. I can't see SS as the 2nd-deepest position, either

Rob

3:08

Rodon or weaver ROS? Thanks!

Paul Sporer

3:08

Eek, you're really backin me into a corner there. Two of my favorite arms. I'll go Rodon by a nose

3:12

Ya for sure. I had Miggy ahead and obviously that flopped, but ya he's the clear 3

Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe

3:13

You and AD were clearly way higher on Cabrera, Story, Lucroy, and Peraza than the pool, I think.

Paul Sporer

3:13

0 Peraza shares and never a fan so I'd be surprised if I was an outlier on the high end in any ranking

I was 2nd-lowest in our 2B rankings

Quadrangular

3:13

Can we address some of the down talk on Rizzo from earlier this year? he's not quite on Goldy or Vottos level, but he's clearly just behind them at tier 1B

Paul Sporer

3:13

lol, answered a Q without posting it. I'm on fire today!
