Paul Sporer

2:05

I'm definitely excited but cautious

Quadrangular

2:05

Paul, is it bad that I'm excited for baseball returning while simultaneously feeling like they probably shouldn't be playing baseball right now?

Paul Sporer

2:05

Totallllllyyyyyy get that feeling

Jake

2:07

Hi Paul! Can you see Karinchak being of value? Need RP and noticed Hand's velo isn't even up at 90 yet!

Paul Sporer

2:08

I don't really see him taking the closer's role, but I think he can be a strikeout & ratio asset

big mac

2:09

Who can i pick up on waivers to help mitigate the loss of Dozer? Smoak? Thx

Paul Sporer

2:09

I like Smoak. Without knowing anyone else who's out there, I'll say go for it with Smoak Monster

Mr. Fister

2:09

Will Grisham be given the opportunity to play full time, or will he be in a platoon with Olivares?

Paul Sporer

2:10

I think Grisham will get a day off here & there, but I don't see a straight platoon

Big Tuna

2:13

Who are your favorite multi-innings arms this year, and is it crazy to like Strahm in that role? SD has said they’ll have a quick hook.

Paul Sporer

2:14

He's a good one. Johnny Lasagna (Loaisiga), Tyler Mahle, Austin Voth (if Fedde wins the 5th spot), Dustin May

Guest

know you're low on Mallex, but let's say you're committed to the idea of getting an elite base-stealer. Him or Dyson?

Paul Sporer

2:15

Dyson bc he's much cheaper

Scioscia distancing

2:15

Bryan abreu or Jonathan loaisiga for a sneak tip wins or holds guy for the first couple line ups?

Paul Sporer

2:15

Loaisiga! Love his talent

Saul Porer

2:15

Paul! Strikeouts aside, Moncada or McNeill?

Paul Sporer

2:15

Moncada more dynamic fantasy player

Manuel

2:15

Are there any up to date resources on who has opted out?

2:16

Hi Paul! What do you think of Benintendi? A little meh but is he that far off from a Blackmon?

Paul Sporer

2:16

I can see an improvement over last year, but he's still pretty far from Blackmon, even if only bc of the park. That's enough difference to favor CB for me

Jam Dupes

2:16

Paul what do you think the impact of casual weather will be on the shortened season?

Paul Sporer

2:16

I can't believe no one is talking about how much Casual Weather will play a maaaaaaaassssssssive role in this season loooool

2:17

I think Justin is drafting exclusively around Casual Weather

Hopefull in SD

2:18

I know it was PCL, but France hit freakin .399 last year. Any chance he's a decent MLB hitter?? I love hit potential at C

Paul Sporer

2:19

I think he could put up some decent #s if he can finagle some PT

Guest

2:19

If Stripling is on waivers, how much should I spend, all things equal?

Paul Sporer

2:19

30% of budget

Vegan Man!

2:19

Last bench spot in a 14 team points - Thames, Kendrick, Cespedes, Chris Taylor, Maikel? Thanks!

Paul Sporer

2:20

Love Thames & Kendrick. If forced to pick, I'm going Kendrick. Full-time burn and a lot of what he did last year is legit

Scioscia distancing

2:20

Does Victor Reyes take over the lead off spot from maybin this year?

Paul Sporer

2:20

I don't think so, no ... really like Maybin btw

Sleepless in Seattle

2:20

Crazy to thikn Kikuchi could be the best starter in Seattle?

Paul Sporer

2:20

No, not at all. Not a ton of competition, but I think Gonzales/Kikuchi/Walker are all pretty similar and could all be their top dog

Guest

2:21

McCullers or Carlos Martinez?

Paul Sporer

2:21

McCullers for me - https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/updated-starting-pitcher-rankings/

Mr. Fister

2:22

Franchy and Bolanos for Tim Hill. Hard to see how anyone can NOT think the Royals won big on this trade. I know FC strikes out like 40% of the time, but how often does a team have a chance to get two young guys, one with massive upside, for a relic of the past LHP reliever who also happens to be 30?

Paul Sporer

2:24

I mean there's a path for them to win big, but Franchy is WILDLY overrated until he does something of note. Striking out 40% of the time makes him unplayable so he needs to fix that immediately. Hill is a lefty killer who can contribute immediately. Bolanos has a better chance to make this a win for KC than Franchy.

Guest

2:24

drafted Carlos Martinez hoping to get some of that sweet sweet saves from an SP action, but now that he's in the rotation I gotta just hang on and start him right?
