Paul Sporer

3:00

Is this for something beyond the blow up? That's just part of his game right now

The CL

3:00

Tell me I was wise to drop Teheran in favor of Yonny Chirinos...?

Paul Sporer

3:00

I'm fine with it

Padres

3:00

I'm glad I reached a couple rounds for Ozzie Albies, Dude is a Beast!

Paul Sporer

3:00

Been really fun watching him so far

Guest

3:01

12-team league, start Roark tonight? What about Maeda?

Paul Sporer

3:02

Yes on both

Ken

3:02

When do you start worrying about average in roto leagues? All my guys are starting slow and a few black holes (E5, Jose Ramirez, Story) have me sitting dead last, but don't want to overreact to this too soon.

Paul Sporer

3:04

Around a month. Obviously you can't let it sink too far, but you also can't start chopping top 5-6 round picks that early. Worst part is that AVG is harder to find off the wire, but if you're really falling behind, maybe you play some hot hands with a couple late-round roster spots trying to catch a hot hand or two

Kevin

3:05

Yonder Alonso worth hanging onto in an OPS league? Statcast loves him but not having a great start. In a vacuum, would you pick him or Aaron Sanchez?

Paul Sporer

3:07

Too early to move on from him in vacuum, but in the case of Alonso v. Sanchez, I'm taking Sanchez

Billy

3:07

Colin Moran- over/under 115 wrc+ ROS?

Paul Sporer

3:09

I'll go over, 118

Guest

3:09

Traded Junis for Maeda. Good, lateral, or bad move?

Paul Sporer

3:09

Lateral. Probably traded Ks for volume

Philly Phan

3:09

Is this the time to sell high on Ohtani (pitcher)?

Paul Sporer

3:10

I mean, you certainly can. But it really just depends what that is in your league. If someone is offering a top 4 round player, I'm listening

Larry Biggersby

3:11

Was I wrong to hope for an Adam Engel breakout? Was hoping he, Trumbo and Canha could form an OF together some day: Marks and Engel!

Paul Sporer

3:11

lol

Lil UZR Brt

3:11

Is Reynaldo Lopez worth owning over Montgomery or Gausman?

Paul Sporer

3:11

That's a personal preference trio right there. Pick your favorite 2 of the 3. I think I'd go JorMont, Lopez right now

Kyle

3:12

An owner in my 14 team keep 5 players has albies and kingery. Any chance they are keeper worthy at the end of the year and which one would you try and pry from the owner?

Paul Sporer

3:12

Both very well could be and I definitely see Albies doing so

tacopocket

3:13

what's up paul? is the potential closer stashing picture any clearer? I have reed and ottavino. Should i drop either for steckenrider, bearclaw, givens, edwards? what do you think of neris and who could he lose that job to....hunter?

Paul Sporer

3:13

Not too much clearer right now, IMO. I like the duo you have and I'd stick with them. Ottavino is delivering all formats value so far with his Ks

Gibby's Waddle

3:13

I traded Verdugo for Newcomb.... tell me I am a smart man, please?

Paul Sporer

3:13

It's fine

Ozzie

3:15

Any love for Tyson Ross?

Paul Sporer

3:16

Ya I'm a Ross fan. Obviously insanely risky to stay healthy, but I think he can get back to all formats viability when his slider is cruising

Andy

3:16

You buying into the Gregory Polanco re-birth this year?

Paul Sporer

Erli

3:16

thoughts on Max Kepler? an increasing FB rate and better plate discipline so far

Paul Sporer

3:18

Ya it's an interesting start for sure

Sean

3:18

Yuli Gurriel is back tonight. Thoughts on him in standard mixed leagues? He's flown under the radar I think...

Paul Sporer

3:20

Ya his price tanked after the injury. Solid batting average source which is tough to get on the cheap. Eager to see how the playing time shuffle works in HOU

Bob Dobalina

3:20

Nido worth taking a flier on?

Paul Sporer

3:20

Maybe NL Only 2 C

Craig

3:20

Worried at all on Castillo (Hrs) and Syndergaard (Blisters)?

Paul Sporer

3:21

Not really. I knew the HRs were part of Castillo's game coming in and they were my primary concern in his profile, though I hope we see him get his great fastball back
