Paul Sporer

Still too many homers, but the increased whiffs backs up the improved K rate for sure

Peter

12:49

Is Austin Riley for Lucas Giolito a fair trade?

Paul Sporer

12:49

It is, yes

Rude Pauls Drag Bunt

12:49

Any ETA on rankings updates?

Paul Sporer

12:50

Aiming for Monday... Tuesday at the latest

Phil Plantier

12:50

In a 14 team dynasty, is Albies a fair offer for Hader? I have Ketel Marte and need saves.

Paul Sporer

12:50

Oh ya, that definitely works for both

12:51

Im still struggling with what to do with JRam. 12tm Roto, what's a return that's worth pulling the trigger? Don't want to sell too low, but fearing it will only get worse. Or do I just keep, then live and die with him RoS?

Paul Sporer

12:55

It's so tough bc you're just not going to get great offers. I'd just try to attack a need, so if you can help a category enough, pull the trigger.

BlueBirds

12:56

Can Jorge Soler keep up his 35+ HR and 100+ RBI pace? Also any hope that he maintains his may K% (21.8%) and not his gross april (37.5%)?

Paul Sporer

12:57

No, I think he's more of a 30% baseline. I'd plan for like a 28 HR/90 RBI season and work from there

ROBOCOP

12:58

How worried are we on Martin Perez after his start last night? Is he still a hold in a 12 team roto, and how long of a leash should we give him?

Paul Sporer

12:58

One bad start against a v good team, I'm not running away

The Electrician

12:58

Whoa you're early! What is Carson Kelly's fantasy upside if he gets the lion's share of starts the rest of the way, AND is able to be his best self?.270/.370/.400? Top 10 fantasy catcher?

Paul Sporer

1:01

I'm not sure why the banner says 2 PM, I'll have to see what happened with that. Schedule has me for 1 PM ET, so I was actually a bit late (pod ran longer). And ya, I could see that for Kelly. I'm glad he's finally getting more PT. I had some love for him after getting out from behind Molina, but then ARI went with 326932649823 catchers on the roster lol

Scott TINSTAAPP

1:01

Is it too early to stash Dinelson Lamet in NFBC 15 team? What are your expectations of him coming off TJ presuming he's back in the rotation July 1?

Paul Sporer

1:02

I have almost no expectations for guys coming off TJ, so I'm not really looking at Lamet myself. It's just too volatile

Charles

1:02

Please rank N. Lopez, Mercado, Biggio R.O.S.

Paul Sporer

1:02

I think you just did, but it's a tight trio so I'm not vehemently for Lopez in the top spot. I would pick him if all 3 were available, though

Ben

1:02

Will we get the good Carrasco at some point?

Paul Sporer

1:04

He was actually great for a 7-start run after the bad start and bad recent run

The Electrician

1:05

Trying to sell high on Austin Riley in a keep forever league, but everyone is aware he cannot keep up this pace forever so I am having a hard time moving him for something I want more than him. Obviously if he crashes hard he won't net more, but am I just stuck with his wunderkind this year, and if he finishes strong he'll solidify his asset class? Or just keep peppering managers with offers?

Paul Sporer

1:05

I'd probably just ride it out. Most leagues aren't going to give an established superstar for a high flying rookie

1:05

everyone is talking about kevin, but what about cj cron ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:08

Ya he's been awesome again! I think I'd put him down for about 20 HR and 60ish RBI rest of season

OddBall Herrera

1:09

A week since Chavis' last extra base hit, and the Ks are piling up. Is it time to get off this merry go round? Thinking of swapping him out for Urias whenever the Padres realize Kinsler isn't helping them get to the playoffs

Paul Sporer

1:09

And cutting Chavis?! That seems like a bad idea

bleepbloop

1:09

Would you be comfortable trading Arenado without getting a 3b back if your only 3b is Justin Turner? 10 tm 5x5+OPS

Paul Sporer

1:10

The hamstring makes it a little dodgy, but a healthy Turner, yes

Dr. Funk

1:11

Rank these injuried (or recently off IL) pitcher for ROS. Heaney, Nelson, Eovaldi and T. Williams.

Paul Sporer

1:11

Nelson, Heaney, Eovaldi, Williams

JoeyBoomBats

1:14

Should Garrett Cooper be on 12-team 5-OF radar? Seems like the Marlins love him, and early Statcast returns are good (.362 xwOBA).

Paul Sporer

1:15

I could see him creeping on the radar. He seems to be playing every day, too, which is huge for shallower leagues

Guest

1:16

Think Smeltzer can stick and push Pineda to the bullpen (where he and his shallow repertoire belong)?

Paul Sporer

1:17

Another strong start with Pineda sidelined would definitely put the Twins to a decision. Pineda just isn't good enough to consistently so maybe the pen is the place for him to maximize

Donjuan

1:18

How many hours per day do you spend on baseball related activities?

Paul Sporer

1:18

Probably about 15

jockey

1:18

very deep OBP league, i'm trying to upgrade at C (currently Severino), best wire options are Perez, B. McCann, Kelly, Wolters. Who do you prefer out of those five?

Paul Sporer

1:21

I'd go Wolters first, then Kelly. Wolters hasn't even fully taken advantage of Coors yet (.728 OPS) so if he starts to leverage that, he could be even better or at least cancel out any road regression (.794 OPS)

baseballdude

1:24

would you trade domingo german, german marquez, or mike minor for edwin diaz in a redraft H2H points league? my other SP are berrios, bieber, giolito, canning, alex reyes, and clevinger/glasnow on IL. my RP are vazquez and luke jackson.
