Jeff Zimmerman

Possibly. He a Tim Anderson clone. He's highly reliant on his BABIP to get on base and steal. If the BABIP drops, so will the steals. Villar and Buxton are similar players.
Kelly
8:21
Should I leave Paxton active for next week or pickup which of following. Alcantara vs was Matz vs phi Stratton vs SD. DeSclafani 2 starts mil and Mia?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:21
I'd take a chance on Paxton
Monster
8:21
I'm afraid to drop Gordon in 10 teamer H@H. Push me over the edge.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:22
Dee, sure go for it. I holding because a 5 steal week would push me up several spots in the standings
Deno
8:22
Adames or Tim Anderson?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:22
I like Adames for now.

Would you trust grenkie (col) or Morton (laa) next week over Holland and matz?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:23
I'd use Greinke and Morton.
MC Ren
8:23
What do you expect from Tyler Skaggs on Tuesday? Back in the saddle?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:24
I don't after his last DL return. I need to see a start first
Kelly
8:24
You think Paxton will start next week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:24
I think so but will read up more before lineups set late tomorrow

Contreras is playing 40% and not hitting. No good replacements so I just dropped him for a pitcher and riding with zero catchers. Is this suicidal? My lineup is stacked otherwise.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:25
Not suicidal. Find an AVG guy and use him (Flafael or Barnhart).
Galileo
8:27
Who do you think will be the better pitcher for next year if you had to pick between Bieber and Dereck Rodriguez?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:27
It's close. I'd go with DRod based on the home park
The Shoe
8:28
The other starts I'm deciding on versus Clevinger vs Boston are Junis @DET, Marquez @ATL, Holland @SD, Stripling vs SD, Ryu vs COL and vs SD, Morton vs LAA, Musgrove vs KC (if I can snag him off the wire) - I need 8 starts (listed 9 here just now)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:28
I like the Stripling start
Jackie
8:28
fedde 2starts at miami vs mets or suarez at sd at stl.  win, qs and ks very important
Jeff Zimmerman
8:28
Suarez. I'm not sure if Fedde will give a QS
Ayyyyyy
8:29
Not a question but I watched Buttrey strike out the side tonight and it was impressive. The FB/change differential was destroying them. I see him getting more 9th innings.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:29
Agree. Mike S. just makes a change anytime someone struggles
So fustrating
My name is Eazy
8:30
Who is Falafel? :)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:30
Isiah Kiner-Falefa. You should listen to the Launch Angle Pod where we gave him that name.
Vlads Dad
8:31
Is this Nomar or is there an all star trapped inside
Jeff Zimmerman
8:31
?
Ed
8:31
Full dynasty, gotta drop two for 2019: Maeda, Gomber, Keller, Giolito, Mengden, Barria
Jeff Zimmerman
8:31
Mengden and .... Keller. Barria is next
Kelly
8:32
Sabathia Alcantara or Matz for next week only? Thank you for your help
Jeff Zimmerman
8:32
Matz
Jackie
8:32
do you think valdez can get qs this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:32
I hope. There wasn't many decent WW options.
My Name is Eazy
8:33
(Re Falafel) Ha, thanks Jeff. I am 40 and I only read the Internet. No listening. Thank you for typing words at me today.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:33
Damn, you are younger than I am.
8:34
That is it for this week as we are a bit over time. One final week and then I'll decide how I'll handle of the offseason. I may keep the chat at night but move it to the week.
