Hi! Curious if you'd cut any of Cahill/Y. Chirinos/Shoemaker for Josh James if I need ratios/K's/W's or if I should sit tight. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
Cahill's start today was killer. I haven't had a chance to look but all the starters listed should be considered streaming options from here on out.
Since you need everything, you just have to go by the matchup.

Cahill's 6 BBs in 2.2 today had me a little alarmed though I didn't get to watch it live. He's got TB this week, but on the road, where he's struggled. Is it time to jump ship in AL Only?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
He may be a drop or bench. I'm a little worried he's hurt again and when he throws hurt, the results are horrible.
7:35
Since he's with a playoff team, he could say he's fine but continue to get lit up.

Who do you pick among Melky, Gardner, and Laureano. AL Only, need OBP 1st and RBI 2nd. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
Gardner as long as he continues to play. Crutch as a wrinkle into the Yankees OF mix.

Is Ryan O’Hearn worth keeping for $5 in deep 12-team AL OBP roto league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
I think so. It's tough to find keepers in AL-only. I could easily see him go for more than $5 next season if he's available in the auction.

So Wily Peralta is the best bet to be the Royals’ closer next spring, right?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
I don't think so. I could see them go and get a Rodney closer type. Maybe even bring Herrera back.
7:39
Dayton loves his vets like Kyle Farnsworth

Does Gary Sanchez turn this around? Seeing much of the same since before the DL stint. Not helping the playoff push on the field or in the fantasy world)
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
He still may be hurting and he's not hitting enough to DH. I'm not sure the answer

Does the Fangraphs staff do an office league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
There are 2 or 3 of them. I'm not in one anymore as they are daily transaction leagues, I just do weekly leagues any more.
Jake Junis Priest
7:42
Thanks for the answer! Another one: Do you think Buttrey gets more save opps in LAA? Parker got lifted with 2 on in the 9th today...
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
I never try to guess what Mike Scioscia will do. It's so random and by the gut.

Time to throw out Jace Fry?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
For who? That bullpen is ugly.
Dave P
7:43
Should I be thinking about dropping Beltre, D.Gordon, Pollock, E.Escobar or K Calhoun for guys like Piscotty, Voit or Villar? 12 team H2H
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Possibly. It really comes down to the few matchups. I'd take Piscotty over Calhoun and maybe ride Villar's hot bat over Escobar.

Best future closer in waiting to stash in keeper leagues?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
Herrera. Look at the soon to be free agents moved at the trade deadline. I could see Rodney back with the Twins.

Re: match-ups, would you run out Shoemaker vs. SEA this week? Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Yea, I'm not afraid of it.

Mr Jeff!! Oh praise thee!! May they wisdom reverberate across the cosmos!! Would you take a flyer on Christian Stewart the rest of the season?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
I will for a week in Tout Wars (we have to start WW pickups for a week): http://baseball7.onroto.com/baseball/webnew/display_bid_reports.pl?tou...

Is boxberger done(droppable) yet?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
The problem is that who else will close for them. If other options exist (Hunter), pick them up. If not, keep running Box out there.

I like Jorge Lopez alright, but the 8 perfect was very fluky, right? Should I chase him vs. MIN again this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
No. I'm passing. He's just not a good pitcher.

Does Joey Votto finish strong?  2 homers in 2 days.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
No, I think he is messed up.
SporerFan69
7:52
Would you drop Archer for Josh James? It's an auction keeper, too which would make James $10 to keep; Archer is due to be thrown back, contract wise.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
I'd have James cheap at a $1 or $2. My worry is that James gets the McHugh and Peacock treatment next year and doesn't start.
Rickey H
7:54
What is Camargo next year?  Starting regular or placeholder? Thanks.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
Placeholder for now. He's an acceptable starting 3B until Riley forces the Braves hand. I think one will be moved at next year's trade deadline.  Riley or Camargo could be traded for other pieces.

What are my 2019 stats?
