Jeff Zimmerman
7:57
Not good, especially if he isn't catching. .250 AVG with 15 HRs. The Hit tool is just not developing.
SporerFan69
7:58
Ok, how about simply ROS, Josh James or Chris Archer
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
James for Wins, Archer for K's
Donkey

I need just a few steals to put away my roto league.  I may try to stream, but if not, who do you like best: Dentist, Jankowski, broken-footed Quinn, Gore, Allen, someone else?  Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
Allen is #1, then Jankowski. Gore is a nice Monday-Thursday sub. If you have daily lineups, load up your bench and run out who is playing that day.

Stay away from Chris Archer this offseason unless dirt cheap?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
His strikeouts are in play after round 10. I think he'll be really cheap and could return a decent value

8:02
Pro Palka?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Yes. I think his value and power are sustainable. He as 21 HR in 381 PA. It's tough to find 30 HR on the WW.
The end of the end
8:03
Matt Shoemaker's only been back for two okay starts - not a lot of hits, but not a lot of K's. Is he worth holding in AL only? Has SEA and likely OAK next.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Yes. He a decent play with so many bad starting pitching WW options.
Ken Giles Right Hook
8:04
Better 2 start pitcher this week: S Gray, Barria, Waino, Valdez or do I pick up none of them?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
Valdez and Gray if chasing Wins
Frank
8:06
Hi Jeff.   Ryu and Trevor Williams are free agents in my NL only.  Would you put in a bid for either and drop Pivetta or Castillo?   I am struggling in eRA and need to make up ground.  kOs are tight too in the standings so gotta watch Ks too.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
I think Ryu and Pivetta are close in talent. You may need to check the matchups.
AL-only, 10-team
8:07
Is Thaiss worth a claim?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
For 2018, no
wain
8:07
sitting in 2nd and losing ground in nfbc league. you consider streaming wainright or gonzales in a 2 start week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
Gonzales. Waino is done for.
Philip Christy
8:08
Should I start Donaldson and bench Correa this week? Correa's done nothing recently.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
I don't like either going forward. I think Correa is still hurt and Donaldson could sit a couple games. If it was only these two, I'd start Correa but don't feel good about it
The FAAB Four
8:09
Carlos Rodon worth keeping at $9 in standard AL only keeper leagues?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
yes
The FAAB Four
8:09
Will Justin Anderson close at some point?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
Again: I never try to guess what Mike Scioscia will do. It's so random and by the gut.
Tom
8:10
Votto faces 6 lefties this week and is in all liklihood playing hurt. Would you consider benching him for a hot bat like Voit or White in a weekly points league?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
I'd have no problems benching Votto at this point. He could head back to the DL at any point.
The FAAB Four
8:11
Will Moncada continue to disappoint?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
He needs to find a way to hit.
Matt
8:12
Bruce, Sano, Choi or Yairo Munoz?  Just need some production
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
I was looking at the same group of players in a league. I like Choi and Munoz based on their current playing time. Consider the Orioles Stewart if available.
NL-only, 10-team
8:13
Is Jason Vargas worth a claim? Next start vs. Miami, plus 4.19 xFIP in second half...
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
For next week, yes
Rocco
8:14
Please rank:  Calhoun, Bader, Renfroe, Dozier
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
Bader, Renfroe, Kole Calhoun, Dozier, Willie Calhoun
Rocco
8:14
Is German Marquez now a must start pitcher?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
He's an 80% guy for me. There are a few times I'd sit him at home.
Chip
8:15
Would you rather use Giolito this week than Cahill?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:16
Is playing with broken glass an option?
Giolito but I don't like it.
