Better keep in a 10 tm AL only: Sale at $43 or Trout at $57? Could afford to keep both but makes things tight

Paul Sporer

3:46

I'd do the work to calculate the inflation and see how close Trout is to being properly priced. I think I prefer him, though

Andrew

3:46

5x5 with OBP. Keep Lamb ($5/1 year) or Bird ($5/two years)?

Paul Sporer

3:46

Kind of a coin toss and I usually try to avoid years, but that's more at higher costs. Even a bust Bird won't kill you at $5 in either season, so go with him

Justin

3:46

What are your impressions of Ohtani?

Paul Sporer

3:46

Didn't see today's video yet, but heard it was electric.

Would you keep track M Chapman in 27th rd of OPS league over Albies in 17th? I’m also keeping Olson

Paul Sporer

3:48

Nah I'd keep Albies. I know it's 10 rounds, but Albies' upside is muuuch higher

Chad

3:48

Better year....Triggs, Suter, or Pivetta?

Paul Sporer

3:48

Kinda dig Pivetta

Cory

3:48

In a 10 teamer, need hitting, would you keep Greinke or Starling Marte; my staff includes Kluber, CMart, Chase Anderson, Paxton, Nola and Quintana

Paul Sporer

3:48

You need hitting and have plenty of pitching, gotta go Marte

Wilbury

3:48

10-team NL-only league ... keep two of $5 Castillo, $6 Weaver, $5 Dejong ... what do you recommend?

Paul Sporer

3:49

I don't love DeJong, but he can't hurt you at this price so keep him and Castillo

Matt

3:49

Hey Paul, you making the drive to miller park this year when the Tigers come to town?

Paul Sporer

3:49

That'd be a bit of a drive from Austin

Anthony

3:49

Acuña HR, I mean...he's a lock for Opening Day.

Paul Sporer

3:49

LOL. I think best case is the 2 weeks we saw with Bryant

Big Tuna

3:51

I got offered the 3rd spot in the draft for my 8th spot. 12 tm 27 round. Ahohld

Paul Sporer

3:52

If you like #3, take it. Map out the 2nd and 3rd rounds though, too, to make sure you're comfortable with the potential picks there

Youth movement

3:53

Better stash this year - G.Torres, or F.Tatis? I’d assume Torres gets first crack at bigs, but am I better off waiting out Tatis in a dynasty league?

Paul Sporer

3:53

Yeah Torres is much closer. I don't see Tatis up this year

Sandy Ravage

3:53

H2H Pts pick a side:
A) Desmond, Carrasco, Gardner, Ariel Miranda
B) Myers, Jansen, Duffy, JBJ

Paul Sporer

3:53

Danny or Matt?

3:54

Side B if it's Danny

Don't ShiNTS your pants

3:54

Yahoo's handling of Shohei Ohtani: Big Deal or No Big Deal? (Splitting him into a hitter and a pitcher)

Paul Sporer

3:54

Big deal? Not really. Annoying and not at all my favorite way, yes

Erik

3:55

Sale is the top SP in dynasty, right? Is there a case to be made for him as the top SP in redraft leagues as well? He's the only guy under 30 out of the top four, and they all have pretty comparable recent resumes.

Paul Sporer

3:55

I can hear the dynasty thing and I wouldn't beat ya up for taking him #1 in redraft, but I'm still going with the NLers then Sale,Kluber

LA Mike

3:55

Even though Barnes isn’t the top catcher in LA, isn’t he worth the add in a 20-team league? I envision him getting some additional AB’s at 2B & DH (interleague)?

Paul Sporer

3:56

Oh for sure. I think he can get plenty of 2B PA

Bryan

3:56

Are you buying Stanton at what the projections say, or slightly less?

Paul Sporer

3:57

I'm closer to the fans 48/130

Ken

3:57

Listened to the pod, and my takeaway was that Turner vs. Shaw is close enough that I should keep a $5 Shaw over a $16 Turner. But would you keep a $5 Shaw over a $4 Moustakas? It’s a head-to-head category league with OBP/OPS. It also has small rosters (no CI spot), so I’m hesitant to double up at the same position.

Paul Sporer

3:57

yes and yes, keep Shaw!

3:58

OK guys, I had to go really short on ya here, but yall are owed a marathon so we will get that done veryyyy soon!! Follow me on Twitter @sporer, Snapchat at psporer and on Twitch at psporer24! I'll be streaming tonight! Peaccceee!!

JDBeast

Paul Sporer

3:58

I'm up 2-0...
