I'd go Smith

Bill

3:23

Trade Hoskins for kluber in a keep forever dynasty? 10 tm weekly points

Paul Sporer

3:23

If you need pitching, that works!

Jim

3:23

ROS: Domingo German or Wheeler 5x5 Roto with a 1200 IP limit and which one would you hang onto in a keeper league?

Paul Sporer

3:25

I like Wheeler to have a strong 2H. Meanwhile I'm not sure how stable German's role is ROS

***brb: gotta take charlotte out***

3:29

Re: The Show -- I'm a long time player but can't seem to get into Diamond Dynasty. I just tend to mess around in the Franchise mode and not much else. What am I doing wrong?

Paul Sporer

3:30

Nothing that you're doing wrong, if it does vibe with you, that's fine. I just love the team building and playing v. other humans aspects. I also like to play market which is based on real life performance so it's almost a fantasy game in itself. Come by the stream sometime if you'd like twitch.tv/psporer24

Summer of Slam

3:30

Is it possible that last year was a career year for Ozuna and what we're seeing now is what we should expect?

Paul Sporer

3:30

Not only possible, but very likely. And I'd have said that even before this year's uninspired performance. I'm an Ozuna believer, but that was still his peak IMO

Robert

3:30

What are the chances that Brinson turns it around in the 2nd half and starts to show the tools he had throughout the minors?

Paul Sporer

3:31

30%... he can't be worse. Let's see how he does after he gets healthy

Vince

3:33

Need steals. 14 reamer roto

Paul Sporer

3:33

Get some guys who run!

RMR

3:33

xwOBA loves Rendon. Can he get into that tier of 3B right behind Ramirez?

Paul Sporer

3:35

I think he already is. He's been performing really well (133 wRC+)

Butch

3:35

I'm in a 10tm H2H keep 3 league (1st 3 rounds). The league allows future draft pick trades to acquire players for this year (i.e. Scherzer for next years 4th rd pick). What are your thoughts on this? We had a trade go through that included 7 guys for 2 picks next year, and it's getting to be a bit much imo

Paul Sporer

3:36

Ya that's insane bc then people can just quit if it doesn't work out (or even if it does... take the winnings and not deal w/the repercussions). I'd be careful with this. No way to reverse it in season, but it's something to address in the offseason

Henry

3:36

Are you starting Danny Duffy and Dereck Rodriguez today?

Paul Sporer

3:40

Yes on both. Was checking Duffy and saw that he's pitching much better of late, so let's give him a go. More confident in D-Rod

Vegan Man!

3:40

Haniger or Carpenter in a 12 team standard H2H? Currently starting Lamb at 3B... Thanks!

Paul Sporer

3:40

Carp, he's out of his mind

baseballguy

3:40

i have both doolittle and morrow on the DL in a H2H points league...i grabbed herrera as a fill-in but he may not even be the interim closer? bud norris, kirby yates on the waiver wire as well as musgroves as a SP/RP, but that means i'd have to drop a SP from my roster, either pivetta, flaherty, cueto, wood, f. peralta, or rodon (2 starts next week). what should i do?

Paul Sporer

3:41

I think Herrera will close in the interim, you're good with him

Ryan

3:41

12 team standard 5x5, can I drop Nimmo for Winker?

Paul Sporer

3:42

I'm OK with that. I have a slight lean for Nimmo personally, but it's close enough to take your preference

Hannah Hochevar

3:43

what do I do with Ken Giles? Al only, 3 man bench, hard up for saves. Has a meaningless -.23 fip in aaa...

Paul Sporer

3:43

Can you buy Hand? I think he'll get plenty of saves for CLE. if you get Hand, you can cut Giles IMO

Kev

3:44

I'm bleeding at C this season. Drop Barnhart for any of Diaz, Chirinos, Lucroy? I'm also monitoring W. Castillo coming back from a suspension.

Paul Sporer

3:44

I'd just stick with Barnhart until Beef returns (but then I do like picking him up for Barn)

hscer

3:44

Chat says it's the 3:00 hour, my time zone is the 4:00 hour, and the site ribbon says chat starts at 5:00 hour.

Paul Sporer

3:45

Ya I'm not sure why the ribbon says 5 PM

baseballguy

3:45

who is my best option at UTIL in a H2H points league ROS: carlos santana, nimmo, mazara, jake bauers? or i could grab someone like yoan moncada off waivers...

Paul Sporer

3:45

Santana in pts for sure

RMR

3:45

Am I crazy or is there some real potential there with Jake Bauers in an OBP league? OBP and some steals and he seems like a guy that could add power with the MLB ball.

Paul Sporer

3:46

Not crazy at all... plus his power is gonna play up from what we saw in the minors bc MLB adds pwr w/the juiced ball

Dungeon Master

3:46

How do you feel about Roberto Osuna upon return? Still top 5 closer?

Paul Sporer

3:47

Not sure I'd say automatically top 5 after that layoff and the reason for it.

Kevin

3:47

Kyle Tucker or Willie Calhoun for rest of this season?

Paul Sporer

3:48

That's a coin toss, IMO. I like Tucker by talent, but I don't think his leash is endless for a contender like Houston, whereas Calhoun should be up for good w/TEX (barring just AWFUL performance). Tucker by a nose
