It's rough for Tuck. He'll spot in, but it could be hard to rip the job from Reddick in a two-month run

Mr. Fister

1:43

Man, I can't wait to hear some baseballs hitting empty seats in the stands.

Paul Sporer

1:43

Better than no baseballs hitting anything, I guess

Peter

1:43

Should Kyle Tucker still be rostered in a 12 team 5x5 Toto league?

Paul Sporer

1:43

As a reserve, sure

Peter

Tapia was not names the starter!
Here's the rewrite of a source

Raimel Tapia: Set for starting job - rotowire.com/baseball/playe…

Here's the source

Tapia was not named the starter... He WANTS to be the starter. Rotowire messed up

Source:

Just got off a call with Raimel Tapia. In addition to cementing starting LF job for #Rockies, he said his goal this season is to win the MVP (Nolan Arenado who?). El Cangrejo is setting the bar high

Paul Sporer

1:44

Ahh ok, thank you for the clarification

RMR

1:45

I'm really feeling a Zac Gallen breakout this year. Any red flags that give you pause?

Paul Sporer

1:45

Experience would be the biggest, but the talent is there to really breakthrough

Peter

1:46

Thoughts on Evan White this year?

Paul Sporer

1:48

I'm intrigued by the profile, but 1B-only who isn't a huge power source and skipping Triple-A has me more of an observer than someone drafting him right now

Peter

1:49

Rotowire really gave all my Sam Hillard shares a heart attack with that Tapia mess up. But if the job is Tapia's, i'm add Tapia and dropping Hillard? But lets be honest, the rockies will screw us all and play Kemp there.

Paul Sporer

1:49

Oh ya, Kemp is 10000% taking the job looool. In 10- and 12-teams I'd drop Hilly for Tapia IF Tapia is indeed announced

Jack off all trades

1:50

How many homeruns will it take to lead the league this year? Who you got?

Paul Sporer

1:50

I think someone will pop 20. Gimme Matt Olson for the win!

1:51

Gurriel or B Lowe or C Hernandez as backup 2B

Paul Sporer

1:51

Gurriel for me (great trio to choose from)

Mr. Fister

1:51

When will MLB start mic'ing up players for tv?

Paul Sporer

1:51

When the All-Star comes back, not sure it's gonna be a regular season thing

Karl

1:51

With a shortened season how long are you willing to wait on someone underachieving? 1 or 2 poor weeks and it's time to drop?

Paul Sporer

1:51

Depends where they are drafted, but yes, it could be as short as a week with someone drafted late

Mr. Fister

1:51

On a scale of 1-10, how big of a dick is Don Cooper for publicly questioning Kopech's mental health?

Paul Sporer

1:52

What?!?! That's out of pocket for sure, gotta go 90 on the 1-10 scale

RMR

1:52

What do you think the split of save opps is this year between Melancon and Smith? Does Melancon get most of them or is it move of a 60/40 split?

Paul Sporer

1:53

If Melancon doesn't meltdown, I think he's closer to 80% of em

Max

1:53

Paul - I know you are a fan of both C.J. Cron and Tony Disco. For the sprint of a season ahead of us, would you trade Tony for C.J. in Deep 5x5 roto

Paul Sporer

1:53

Yep, gimme the hitter in a relatively even value trade!

bobsyouruncle

1:53

Kiner-Falefa's new swing worth a C spot in 2 C league?

Paul Sporer

1:54

15+ teams or AL only

Vegan Man!

1:54

You in on Shogo in OBP? Thanks!

Paul Sporer

1:54

Biiiiiig time

mokajige

1:54

Struggling with whether or not to keep Brendan McKay or grab another starter. My league has no bench spots and I don't know if he's going to get enough innings or chances at wins. Thoughts on him this year?

Paul Sporer

1:55

I don't really trust him this year... or really the Rays more than him. But yeah, I'm not really looking at him as more than a reserve so I'd look for another SP if I were you

1:56

any interest in stat cast darlings like Houser or CJ Cron

Paul Sporer

1:57

Big fan of both, actually!

Mr. Fister

1:57

Is there an opt-out deadline whenit comes to COVID-19? Can a player accrue a year of service time, and then opt out?

Paul Sporer

1:58

I gotta imagine it's coming up. I'm not sure you can just opt-out in-season
