Winker on fire, but the batted ball mix still being GB heavy makes me think this is just another random hot streak. Agree?

Paul Sporer

4:00

I'm not sure I follow, I mean he's only ever been a good hitter so I'm not exactly expecting him to melt down even as the BABIP comes back to earth. He's smacking the piss out of the ball and actually getting opps against lefties. I'm in on the Winker surge

Regular Baez Streakiness?

4:00

Is there anything wrong with Javy Baez, or are we just in SSS combined with his usual streakiness?

Paul Sporer

4:01

Ya I think it's mostly the latter. Hard to cut or anything. Might just be a down season as the season could run out on him like I mentioned in the Altuve question, but I think you have to stick w/Baez

Tyler Mahle back to rotation soon?

Paul Sporer

4:02

If Miley gets blitzed again

Merc'ed

4:03

Cutting mercado in al only this weekend. For real this time. Sad face.

Paul Sporer

4:03

Such a bummer, I was pretty excited about him this season but he's been brutal & now got sent out

My Sweet Lourdes

4:04

Assuming you still believe in Lourdes right?

Paul Sporer

4:04

Yeah, I'm holding tight with him. Maybe bench him if you have a better option, but I'm not cutting yet

Quarantino Martinez

4:05

If Yordan is done, do you want Toro at all?

Paul Sporer

4:05

Maybe in AL only, but not really

MITexan

Trent Grisham seems to have cooled off a bit. Still a fan in 10 team H2H?

Paul Sporer

4:06

Yes still a fan. He worked through a 2-for-22, but he's already pulled out of it with an 8-for-25 including 4 multi-hit games

DMc

4:06

I just traded for Months yesterday... Talk me off the ledge.

Paul Sporer

4:06

Who?

Saul Porer

4:06

Paul, was there anything in Montas' shellacking that's concerning long term? Ya know, other than all the dingers and the walks. Velo dip or anything?

Paul Sporer

4:07

Really just think it's the back tightness that led to his being scratched in the first place. Might just need a skip to get right, but as long as he's healthy, I'm not at all worried

mm44

4:07

Grichuk or Hoskins as an add for 5x5 with Yordan out?

Paul Sporer

4:09

Grichuk is outta his mind right now and there's some K & BB rate improvements, but I'm not sure this is a new level so you might've already missed his best so I might actually go for Hoskins instead

Farmer Ted

4:09

What do I do?

Paul Sporer

4:10

A lot of farming

Merc'ed

4:12

Any utility for Zimmer, DDS, naquin in al only?

Paul Sporer

4:13

Ya all three could be worth a look in AL only. I'd rank em Zimmer, The Dentist, Naquin

John H.

4:13

Thoughts on Kyle Tucker for dynasty? Patience or flip...

Paul Sporer

4:13

Staying patient in dynasty

Lorenzo

4:13

Does Ryan Pressly have a good shot to be a top 5 closer ROS?

Paul Sporer

4:14

Ya, he can... if only because the closer landscape is horrendous right now

Dirtbag

4:14

What do you think will happen to Clevinger and Plesac, I have both on the bench in a 15 team roto

Paul Sporer

4:14

I can't imagine they're down past this weekend. At some point, Cleveland is only hurting themselves by keeping them out. They've made their point and they deserved to be punished, but it's been enough now

Jeff

4:14

Think Montas is headed for an IL stint? Or is it just growing pains? All has been great until the back injury then that "start" yesterday

Paul Sporer

4:15

Could need an IL stint for the back, but I think the start yesterday was entirely back-related

Woody

4:15

Matt Manning had better stats last year than Mize. Does the Tigers bringing up Mize mean that DET considers him a better prospect or are they trying to protect Manning's service time?

Paul Sporer

4:15

Many consider Mize a better prospect and the Tigers said that Manning still has things to work on which is why he wasn't called up w/the others

Saul Porer

4:17

Is Gausman a guy you're riding now?

Paul Sporer

4:17

Yes, for sure. He looks really good

Todd Gak

4:17

you hearing any Patrick Sandoval hype long term?
