What's the point?

Anders

1:20

What would Cal quantrill have to do tonight to grab your attention?

Paul Sporer

1:20

QS w/at least a K per inning?

Post Hype Prospects

1:20

Scott Kingery is having a nice 2nd season. Smoke and mirrors? Will he be a nice long term asset in a dynasty league?

Paul Sporer

1:21

Not smoke and mirrors. AVG running a bit high, but gimme .270 with pop and some speed rest of season. Big fan.

NL ROY

1:21

Victor Robles was supposed to have an elite hit tool. His 65 ks and .233 avg have me concerned. Is he a future star or should we be concerned?

Paul Sporer

1:23

Was it supposed to be elite?? I feel like elite is 70+ grade. At any rate, I understand the worries, but that's part of the risk of taking a 22-year old rookie. The upside remains real, but so was the risk

The Littlest Gio

1:23

Giolito going to keep Giolitoing against the Yankees today?

Paul Sporer

1:24

There's certainly no reason to assume he'll flop. Obviously he's going to have a bad start at some pt bc that's just how pitching works, but he's a must start

Guest

1:24

I have 8 outfielders. Yelich Stanton Pham Soto Verdugo Conforto Mallex and Hicks. I need a first basemen badly. Is Hicks for Votto a bad move?

Paul Sporer

1:24

It's a buy low for buy low. I'm obviously not psyched about Votto, but I don't hate this move. Certainly not an overpay

Speed is killing me

1:25

Do you think Segura gets to 20+ SBs, or are the Phils more bloop and a blast?

Paul Sporer

1:26

They just don't run. 20 is too high to predict

baseballdude

1:26

start clevinger in a 2 start week right off the IL? @ TEX and @ DET i think.

Paul Sporer

1:26

I think I would, yes

JoeyBoomBats

1:27

If you're going for it this year, and you've got one of the disappointing studs (JoRam, Goldy, etc), what's your general strategy? Hold and hope for the rebound, or trade for a lower ceiling but performing player?

Paul Sporer

1:28

I don't have a set strat there. I guess I tend to hold, but it depends on my standings. For Ramirez, he's at least delivering SBs so there is some real value there.

Matt

1:29

obviously it's a small sample, but last 14 games for Votto: .397/429/.569

Paul Sporer

1:29

with 8 multi-hit games. First sign of life in his bat in a good while

Monte

1:29

Looking to move either Matt Chapman or Tatis Jr for a SP. Pos doesn't matter much as I have Moose to fill in at 3b and Bogaert at SS. Who would you rather move assuming they both fetch similar returns?

Paul Sporer

1:30

I'd prefer to hold Chap. I think the hype of Tatis will draw more

Monte

1:31

You holding Paddack in a shallow league (10 Team)? He hasn't been stellar lately and not sure I can burn a roster spot on him for 20 days while I'm also sitting on Kimbrel.

Paul Sporer

1:31

In fairness, I don't think you'll have to wait all 20 right now. I think they're going to split it and send him down again at the All Star break. I'd hold

Cito's Mustache

1:31

In a 10-team roto with a limit of 200 pitcher starts, are you starting Hendricks @ LAD and Giolito vs NYY?

Paul Sporer

1:32

Ya I'm inclined to start both

Slamboni

1:36

AL Only roto keeper, is Brandon Lowe (league min) a fair offer for Jose Ramirez?

Paul Sporer

1:36

If the trade partner really values cheap keepers, it's not terrible, but I'm not sure it gets accepted as a 1-for-1

Kdog

1:36

Molina comes off the DL. I picked up Chirinos to replace him. I keep Chirnos and drop Yaddy right?

Paul Sporer

1:36

I would, yes

Dave

1:36

Kiermaier on a nice little run-- doing anything different or garden variety hot streak?

Paul Sporer

1:37

He's always good for a hot run, but injury usually derails him

Dave

1:37

Where do you think Clevinger slots in your rankings when he comes back?

Paul Sporer

1:37

Must Start, I'm getting him right back in there

Joe Peppy Tone

1:37

Darvish and Archer both showed up on our waiver wire. Would you drop Skaggs for one? Who is your preference? Thanks

Paul Sporer

1:37

I'd take Darvish over Skaggs

Small Tuna

1:37

Urena to 60 Day DL...if Gallen doesn't come up now should we cut bait in redraft?

Paul Sporer

1:38

Oh ya, I didn't see Urena was out THAT long. I think that's why someone asked how long Elieser could stick.

Tyler

1:38

Hey Paul! What are your expectations for Daniel Murphy ROS?

Paul Sporer

1:39

.300, 14-16 HR

Hey

1:39

Drop Carpenter for Scwarber? 8 team OBP
