E-Rod or T. Ross ROS?? 5x5 14-team mixer.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
E-Rod
Jimbo
7:51
In weekly leagues, do you start Ohtani the pitcher or Ohtani the batter?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Pitcher by a long ways
7:53
It really depends on who you replacing in the OF. Look at the trade like Seager & Your OF for Stanton & Marte
FDR
7:53
Was it you that made me avoid Ohtani in all my drafts or did someone else write about his first ST start? Come on!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
I did not like what I saw early on. He was inconsistent. He quickly pulled it together. Oops
John Gibbons
7:55
Will Austin Barnes ever get the playing time he deserves?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
He's dealing with an injury so more rest for now.
RMR
7:55
I purposely waited on catcher (one C league) knowing that I would probably just drop the guy I ended up with at some point for a FA was producing better.  I didn't plan to do so this early, but Wilson Ramos has been terrible.  How early to I pull the plug for a Lucroy, Brian McCann or Russ Martin (OBP league)?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
Russ Martin. Set and ignore. Maybe not much power but nice OBP. You can drop later for a power if other needs come up.
Rickon
7:56
Quintana's velo was up a mile today from his last start. Promising enough to continue top 20 consideration?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:57
Yes
Jake Junis Priest
7:57
AL-Only league with starts limit. Want to target TB middle men to vulture wins with the starters only going 3 or 4, but Cash keeps switching the orders around. Is this a dumb move for me?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
You just have to pick a guy and go with it. It's so tough to target Wins, especially from MR. Just play the best value for ERA, WHIP, and Ks and hope the Wins come.
DJ
7:58
Would you drop either Eduardo Rodriguez or gohara for Nick Pivetta? Are you playing schebler in a weekly league or benching?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
Maybe on Gohara to if I need a starter.
I'd probably bench Schebler. He might give you nothing.
Jake
8:00
Rank them ROS: Joey Lucchesi, Yonny Chirinos, Bryan Mitchell, Dillon Peters
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
In that order but swap Peters and Mitchell
Jake
8:01
Jeff, in a 12 team save + hold league, do I hold onto Chad Green? Have 3 closers already and nobody else seems droppable. He seems valuable like Devenski last year but that Yankees bullpen is stacked so I'm a little more skeptical he gets saves or holds? Or should I just keep him and drop Strickland
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
Drop him over Strickland. You might be able to pick him up later if the need arises.
Nickel Package
8:01
After one week of baseball: breakout pitcher and breakout hitter?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
Ohtani and it's way too early to make a call on any hitter.
Chris
8:02
I'm looking for a SP with RP eligibility.  Who should I pickup between Cody Reed, Liriano, Domingo German or Sal Romano?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
Reed, two-start week if you are brave.
Andrew Triggskaidekaphobia
8:03
In a 12 team keeper, how do you see the stash value of Robles v. Gleyber? Does Robles just have too many roadblocks to an early call up?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Robles was my #1 prospect target. Being an OF, he just needs one of three to go on the DL to get time,
Bobby G
8:04
Drop Matt Kemp to pick up Renfroe?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Not right now. Kemp's playing Renfroe is a AVG/OBP sink
Guest
8:04
I want to pick up Franco but I already have Seager, Olson, and Swanson in my 1B -- 1B/3B -- and Utility spots (respectively)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
OK ... not much you can do.
Joey Callo
8:05
Is there anything more pleasurable than seeing a pitch crushed like the one Gallo smashed today?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
Triples ... I love triples
Quest
8:07
Link to article on stabilization points for stats?
Andrew
8:07
8 team AL only.  Boring and steady Jed Lowrie is on the wire.  Should I cut Soler and his upside (finally got a hit today!) for Lowrie?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
yes
Juice
8:07
Who do you trust more going forward- Alonso or Davidson? In a small sample Davidson is showing more discipline with 6 walks in 34 PA
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Alonso but if my team really needed power, they could take a chance on Davidson
