Adam

Are you starting Ed-Rod and Paxton on Saturday fresh off the DL?

Paul Sporer

1:26

Yes

Larry Hutz

1:26

ROS in a H2H categories league: I have Kopech, Lucchesi, Cahill, and DRod at the back end of my pitching staff. Do I stand pat with them or drop one or more for: DeSclafani, Trevor Williams, Mike Minor

Paul Sporer

1:27

Depends on schedules tbh. Cahill has that wild home-road split and I usually don't get tooooo crazy on home-road, but I think his merit attention

Jay

1:27

H2H playoffs next week and I'm evaluating 2step pitchers for the week. What are your thoughts on Matt Harvey? @PIT and home vs San Diego. I'm debating between him and Reynaldo Lopez

Paul Sporer

1:27

Not sure who ReyLo has, but I like that setup for Harvey

Larry Hutz

1:29

My hitting is in rough shape for playoff time. I'm relying on Dahl, Cano, Renfroe and Morales to contribute currently (Judge on DL and I don't think he'll be helping me). Drop any of those for: Melky, Ervin, McNeil, or Eloy?

Paul Sporer

1:29

I like McNeil most of that group unless Eloy gets the call

Franmil Reyes

1:29

Where do you see his K-rate settling when all is said and done? 27% reasonable?

Paul Sporer

1:29

Ya he can shave it down to that

Dave

1:29

Looking for HRs/RBIs-- Renfroe or Dahl?

Paul Sporer

1:30

Renfroe

Kevin wears a t-shirt to BP

1:30

Would you drop Billy Hamilton for Villar or Mondesi if you only need steals?

Paul Sporer

1:30

Mondesi!

Jay

1:30

Jason Kipnis or Adam Frazier going forward? I was previously streaming Lourdes Gurriel at 2B but he's been cold coming back from injury

Paul Sporer

1:30

Frazier

Reach

1:30

Real baseball question - how much do the Rockies suck? Not at baseball this year, but as an organization. How did they not claim Murphy or Cutch?

Paul Sporer

1:30

Don't understand how they're letting all these hitters go

Hal

1:30

How comfortable should I be starting German Marquez at Coors against mid tier teams such as San Fran? Think he will ace the rest of the way

Paul Sporer

1:30

He's been incredible home & road, I'm starting him - http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/8-second-half-sp-surgers/

CubFan

1:31

Do you think Laureano is a starter in Oakland's OF next year?

Paul Sporer

1:31

He's got a real shot, ya

Hal

1:32

How comfortable are you with starting German Marquez at Coors against mid tier teams like San Francisco? Will he ace the rest of the way?

Paul Sporer

1:32

Don't. Repeat. Questions.

Abomb

1:32

Paulino! What are your expectations for Donaldson when he comes back? I've got a Round 1 bye secured so I picked him up hoping to catch lightning in a bottle for the playoffs. Think there's a good chance of that?

Paul Sporer

1:32

There's definitely a chance, he's a star talent. If healthy, he can rake for sure

Scott TINSTAAPP

1:33

Who do you like most for saves ROS? Betances, Neris or Fry?

Paul Sporer

1:33

Fry. I like Betances most, but he's sharing with many others

Peter

1:34

Who are a few of the best infielders most likely available on my 14 team roto league waiver wire? (avg and ops league)

Paul Sporer

1:34

Impossible to answer... just give me some names off your wire

CubFan

1:35

How concerned are you with McCullers forearm injury? I always get concerned thatTJ surgery is just around the corner.

Paul Sporer

1:35

Alway concerned with a forearm in any case, but especially concerned with someone with McCullers' history

1:35

I've got a playing time toss-up at my 2 util spots between Luke Voit, Todd Frazier, Wil Myers, and Marwin Gonz. I'm leaning Voit and Frazier. Thoughts?

Paul Sporer

1:35

I prefer Myers/Marwin

Scott TINSTAAPP

1:35

are you diving back into Ohtani for the stretch run?

Paul Sporer

1:35

If he's available, yes for sure

1:35

Stick with Tyler White or try to trade for Votto?

Paul Sporer
