Ketel Marte or Jorge Polanco?

Paul Sporer

3:50

I'm gonna lean Polanco bc Marte doesn't run and while his newfound power is nice, it's not hard to find

Jake Junis Priest

3:50

who's more expendable: Fletcher, Mondesi, Bonifacio (al only, obp) ?

Paul Sporer

3:50

Fletcher

Matt

3:50

You dropping Conforto to bid on Matt Chapman?

Paul Sporer

3:51

Probably... league context would help

Matt

3:51

Andrew Suarez, yo. Thoughts?

Paul Sporer

3:51

Solid pitcher. Deep lg option

3:52

FYI: I kinda hate "thoughts" question... there's no direction to it. Would prefer something more specific. Chat equivalent of when sideline reporters say "talk about"

12 team mixed 12 x 12 h2h keeper league which sp is ranked lowest for ROS; Archer, Bumgarner, Buehler, Mikolas, Flaherty, Porcello, Clevinger or Velasquez? Thanks

Paul Sporer

3:53

VV... here's the latest SP rank btw: https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/july-starting-pitcher-rankings/

Do you ever join these kinds of chats and ask fantasy questions?

Paul Sporer

3:53

Do I join my own chat?

Phil

3:53

H2H categories obp keeper league would you trade Yelich at $26 for Juan Soto at $6?

Paul Sporer

3:54

If I'm on more of a rebuild track, yes, but otherwise I stick w/the established star

Dexy's Midnight Fowlers

3:54

Outfield of Eaton, Rosario, Belt. Am I set or should I upgrade? (12 team)

Paul Sporer

3:54

Gotta stay diligent. Eaton is always risky and Belt can still be stifled by his park at times

Dungeon Master

3:54

Tell me Elvis Andrus will pick it up!

Paul Sporer

3:55

I think the AVG and SB will go up, but can't say for sure the power will

DDD

3:55

With Colorado limiting Jon Gray's upside, would that make him a cheaper buy for an MLB team to acquire and, if so, would Colorado consider trading him for that price?

Paul Sporer

3:56

No, probably not. His metrics are there and the Rockies aren't going to take less based on ERA

High 5 Ghost

3:56

Just lost E Rodriguez in a 12 team league...I’m looking at Derek Rodriguez, Nick Kingham, and Jamison Tailion. I’m leaning Tailion per your latest rankings...are you?

Paul Sporer

3:56

For sure. I like the other 2, but Taillon is a cut above

Matt

3:57

Why is it that never once has the time advertised on your chat banner been correct?

Paul Sporer

3:57

No idea, tbh. I need to ask Sean, our tech guy

Christian

3:57

Pretty standard 5x5, 10 teamer (Saves league), just swung Brand Hand, Iglesias, and Jesus Aguilar for Encarnacion and Aroldis...you think that's about right?

Paul Sporer

3:58

Ya, I'm fine w/that deal on both sides

Parts + Gleyber

3:58

Hi! Would you start Cahill vs giants? Might still be shaky post dl. Al only. Thanks!

Paul Sporer

3:58

Ya I'd start him

Smokey

3:59

5x5 H2H with OBP and S+H

I'm being offered Donaldson, Kluber, and Kenley J for Gerrit Cole, Eloy Jimenez, and Jose Leclerc. I can keep Cole for a 6th round pick new year and obviously Eloy is tough to move on from. I am already in 2nd with Machado, Bryant (can't keep next year), J Turner, and Matt Carp eligible at 3B.

Thoughts? I'm pretty hesitant.

Paul Sporer

3:59

I'd be more focused on how much this helps you for this year and not worry about the keeper implications at all. If you think it gets you over the hump, I say go for it

4:01

Holy crap, Matt Carpenter!

Kevin

4:03

BTW, how is Kyle Gibson today?

Paul Sporer

4:03

He got his yard work done here at my place and he'll be dealing tonight v. KC

Henry

4:03

Eric Hosmer or Yuli Gurriel ROS?

Paul Sporer

4:03

Yuli

Matt

4:04

Everyone always points to Coors for Gray, but this year (granted, only this year) this wOBA is pretty close to equal, BABIP is different, but that's likely tied to the inverse difference in K%

Paul Sporer

4:04

The wOBA doesn't really matter bc the same wOBA at a different park likely won't yield as many runs. He has three 6+ ER outings, all at Coors

Phil

4:04

Drop Mazara for Calhoun? No DL spots open.

Paul Sporer

4:04

Dang, how many teams? I'd rather not cut Maz
