Any love for Ian Happ? Small sample size last year, but 11 HR in 58 games and managed to cut down a bit on Ks.

Paul Sporer

3:16

Huuuuge fan! Drafting him pretty much wherever I can!

Erk

Think Nate Pearson is up after a week? Think Logan Gilbert makes some starts this year? Thanks!

Paul Sporer

3:17

Yes on Pearson and I could see Gilbert getting some burn later in the season, but I'm not sure I'm drafting him

Looking for a lower ranked 1B I could pick up later in my draft and kind of liking what I'm seeing in the data for Christian Walker. Never been much of a fan, but he hit the ball hard, had a good batted ball distribution, upped his walks and even grabbed some chip-in steals. The under the hood stuff seems to support what he did. Think he can repeat this?

Paul Sporer

3:18

He's been a bit forgotten, but I agree with there being a good bit to like with him and I'm a big fan of that team so the R/RBI potential should be nice, too

Mike Tyson: Designated Hitter

Plesac, Pablo Lopez, Voth, Stripling.....in a 95th percentile situation, could any of these guys make a leap to to 25 starter status? Asking for an enemy.....

Paul Sporer

3:18

Yes, Stripling! I'm a huuuuge fan of him and now he has a role!!

Bilbo

We're switching to from H2H to Roto for this shortened season. In H2H, I like to anchor my staff with two dominant SPs. Should I continue that strategy in Roto, or take one ace (I already have Verlander as a keeper, but I could go after Scherzer in the auction), or grab someone like Paxton and invest the $$ savings into my offense?

Paul Sporer

3:20

I like the 2-ace setup in either situation, tbh. JV/Max still feels reeeaaalllyyy good atop a rotation

Phil

3:26

Price is completely done for 2020? He has no option to return mid year?

Paul Sporer

3:26

I don't believe so. I think once you opt out, you're out

3:26

Both of these guys could be leading off. Do you prefer Akiyama or Verdugo?

Paul Sporer

3:27

Prefer Akiyama. Better team, better division, healthier

Mike Tyson: Designated Hitter

3:27

You like hampson to start at 2b and also like McMahon. You assuming McMahon plays 1B full time?

Paul Sporer

3:27

Yes and Murphy at DH

RMR

3:27

With guys like Gore, Pearson, Kopech, Howard and Puk, even if they get a starting spot are we going to see enough innings to make an impact? Feels like all of these guys are going to be babied to some degree innings wise.

Paul Sporer

3:28

Not sure teams will have the luxury to baby them much. If they're in the rotation, they're needed.

Britton

3:28

What's up with Franklin Perez? Any chance he plays for the Tigers this year?

Paul Sporer

3:30

Health has certainly slowed him and thus he's yet to reach 90 IP in a season. I could see some relief, but he's a non-entity in fantasy right now

3:31

OK y'all, I gotta get going. Thanks so much for coming out, I appreciate all the questions! Follow me on Twitter (@sporer), Twitch (sporer), and Instagram (p_sporer). I’ll be streaming on Twitch later today and you can definitely come by and ask questions about fantasy there. Have a good one, y’all!
