Wait, both Tatis & Moncada?? I'd take them

abelwingnut

1:13

reddick or pinder?

Paul Sporer

1:14

League type would matter, but I love Pinder

Matt

Is there any irony that Thame's nickname in Korea was God, and he was unseated by Jesus, only to potentially reclaim his throne?

Paul Sporer

1:14

lololol

Matt

1:14

So happy you have a job....but, like, we get it, you like fantasy baseball.

Paul Sporer

1:14

lololol

1:15

Do you let Tim's into your Beat Paul Sporer leagues just so you can say, I don't think so Tim! (That's a 90s joke for you youngins)

Paul Sporer

1:15

I'd have to make sure they're really bad and beatable

trashcan sinatra

1:15

is this just a slow start for Muncy or was last year an anomaly?

Paul Sporer

1:16

I really believed in his 2018, so I'm holding tight a bit

Boof

1:16

McNeil or Polanco ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:17

Assuming it's Jorge, I'll lean toward him, but both him

Chucky

1:18

Matt Chapman, the AL version of Arenado?

Paul Sporer

1:19

Yeah, I'd say so. The easiest comp may feel lazy, but it sure looks like Oakland's next Josh Donaldson here

Nolan

1:19

Chuck Nazty: hold or sell for 90 cents on the dollar?

Paul Sporer

1:22

I could take 90 cents, which would be what, like... LoCain or Suarez or something like that?

Eickhoff is a statcast darling so far this year - do you see him being mixed league relevant in a 14 teamer?

Paul Sporer

1:23

Yes, he's 14-team relevant with a rotation spot

bang bang whats the hang

1:23

Why is no one talking about Christian Walker? Former hype, few years experience, hitting balls HARD, swinging at less pitches (even in the zone.) So he's made an adjustment, waiting for a good pitch and then smashing it. I feel like I haven't seen ANY love yet. Is everyone really scared of that BABIP

Paul Sporer

1:24

I think some shallower mixed leagues need to get on board, but he's gaining steam. http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/the-10-assessing-the-early-batter-bre...

I mean I have to cut Flores in an NL only at this point right? Figured getting out of NY, every day playing time, in the desert, he'd pop 15-20 with a decent average. Woof. :(

Paul Sporer

1:24

Was similarly hyped. Could see going back to him down the line, but ya I'm cutting him everywhere

Eric

1:24

Sale turn it around?

Paul Sporer

1:24

I tend to think so, yes

Justin

1:24

Is Walker Buehler fine? Doesn't seem to have "it" this year? Velocity seems fine, but K rate has dropped. Maybe just small sample size?

Paul Sporer

1:25

I'm sitting tight. I'd check in to see if there's any panic around him. 54% LOB rate won't maintain

1:25

Who gets first shot at Angels closer gig - Buttrey or Robles?

Paul Sporer

1:25

Buttrey for me

Edwin

1:25

Holding out hope for Hunter Renfroe - do I just stick a fork in it? 5x5 standard 12 teamer

Paul Sporer

1:26

He's pretty fringe in 12-teamer without a guaranteed role

High 5 Ghost

1:29

Thanks for the chat Paul! Long story short...I have McNeil as my 3B in a 12 team lg that counts walks. Andujar, Chavis, R Nunez, and Franco are all sitting there on the wire...in what order should I prioritize these guys...?

Paul Sporer

1:31

Hmm, I'd probably go Nunez, Chavis, Andujar, Franco, McNeil. McNeil is kinda empty average for a 12-teamer and doesn't really get a boost w/the BBs.

Shawn

1:31

Still holding Syndergaard? Seems to be less than the sum of his parts, even dating back to last year

Paul Sporer

1:31

Well ya, I can't get rid of him, of course. I'm not selling low, either

Kyle

1:31

Do you think Muncy can hit his way out of this stupid platoon with David Freese?
