Paul Sporer

3:35

I have not heard anything and they don't really need to rush him up as their rotation was strong the first time through

Marky Mark

Keep two for 2020 redraft: Gore, Howard, Adell.

Paul Sporer

3:35

Gore/Adell

billyhaze

3:36

I hope this trend of SP's not going more than 4 innings comes to an end soon. I may have to get guys like Quantrill for the chance at a win, MR's seem to be the ones to get wins

Paul Sporer

3:37

I'm going to have an article on the Quantrill types out soon as I, too, am a bit worried about this trend.

Ronny

13 tm roto redraft. Is Musgrove a hold?

Paul Sporer

3:37

Yes

Dang Enter Button

3:37

Dynasty keep forever with no cost. Would you rather have Bregman or Wander plus Gore?

Paul Sporer

3:39

That's a fair deal for Bregman, but I play for here and now so I lean Bregman here. Wander and Gore are elite prospects, but we're probably at least a couple yrs from them being top flight contributors. They could succeed immediately and next year if when they're both killing it, but I'm betting against that and riding out Bregman's prime

Rodney

3:39

Khris Davis is looking so rough this year. But he was krushing it last spring before getting hurt. Is this the end? Or is a guy like him just going to run hot and cold and we all just have to accept it?

Paul Sporer

3:40

Still too early to freak out about guys with firmly established track records. Unless we hear something about his health, I'm betting on cold start and hanging with Davis.

Stop the Pressley

3:40

Hi Paul. Al only: how long should I hold Ryan Presley?

Paul Sporer

3:40

Do you not have IL slots?

Mike Hawk

3:41

Gotta trade one of the "next guy ups"...which guy goes Davis, Kim, Gott, Hudson or Leclerc?

Paul Sporer

3:42

Well Davis & Kim are the actual announced closers so I'm sticking w/them. I think Gott just because Kapler doesn't usually lean on just one guy and while I'm not super keen on Leclerc, he is the guy and TEX is better than SF in my opinion

Tristan

3:42

Is Eric Lauer the Brewers' #2 starter at the end of the year? Feels like there could be another level in there if MIL optimizes his usage.

Paul Sporer

3:42

I don't really see that. What do you like about him? I Woody-Lindblom-Burnes will make a solid 1-3 soon

Jim

3:43

Hey Paul! It’s slim pickings for SP in my points dynasty league. One name that’s intrigued me is Justin Dunn. Do you have a favorable outlook on him?

Paul Sporer

3:45

I have a "let's take a look at him in deeper leagues" outlook on him so I like that you're taking a shot. A prospect with real upside, he might end up as a high leverage RP, but it makes total sense for SEA to see if he can stick as a solid mid-rotation starter first

Guest

Can Nick Burdi hold onto the closer role?

Paul Sporer

3:45

I absolutely think so - https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/paul-sporers-bold-predictions-for-2020/

Also Happy Nate Pearson Day! So jacked for Pearson/Scherzer tonight

Paul Sporer

3:46

Me too!

Diary of a Thin Man

3:47

Is Luke Voit too skinny?

Paul Sporer

3:47

I don't... think.... so? Is that a legit concern about him right now?

Dave

3:47

Civale!

Paul Sporer

3:47

Really fun season debut!

Bueller

3:47

% chance Whitley gets the call?

Paul Sporer

3:48

At some point this year? 75%

Peter

3:48

Have to activate Moose. Pretty deep everywhere. Who should I drop? Pick one hitter and one pitcher...
Hitter: Andrew McCutchen, Kyle Lewis, Kyle Tucker, Austin Riley
Pitcher: Brady Singer, Spencer Howard.

Paul Sporer

3:48

Riley & Howard

Buffalo BlueJay

Stat line prediction tonight and ROS for Nate Pearson?

Paul Sporer

3:50

5 IP, 2 H, 3 ER, 3 BB, 7 K ... rest of season: 4.00 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, at least a K-per-inning

Holland

3:50

Please rank these OFs ROS: Kyle Lewis, Willie Calhoun, Randal Grichuk, Aaron Hicks.

Paul Sporer

3:52

Calhoun, Lewis, Hicks, Grichuk

Salty

3:52

Paul - appreciate the articles and the chats, helps boost the interest for however long the season lasts. I hope Justin (and others) is wrong in the thought that the season would be in greater jeopardy if a more popular team was going through what the Marlins are. If another team or two ends up in the same boat, can the season still be saved?

Paul Sporer

3:53

You're welcome. Thanks for reading and coming to the chats. It'd be really tough if another team got merked like this

3:54

Why did Arenado throw home?!?!

Chris

3:54

Kyle Lewis is still awesome!!

Paul Sporer

3:55

Really digging him. I still think the AVG will be .250s on the high end, but I like his bat a lot
