Fountain of Youth
7:34
Should we grab Ponce de Leon? He’s looking good
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
I think someone in every league needs to own him.
Cito's Mustache
7:35
Standard 5-categories roto + QS. Pretty shallow league. Should I drop McKay for one of the following? Means, Musgrove, Miley, Gibson, Fiers, S Gray. Thanks, Jeff.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
Gibson. I love his potential facing the AL Central in the season's 2nd half
Jimmer
7:36
Hey Jeff, would you hang on to Lorenzen in a 12-team mixed if you were needing saves?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
Yes but I'm not has high on him as other potential closers: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/closer-rankings-7-10-19/
Swap Hudson and Biagini in those rankings
Garrett
7:38
Buying on Archer if he was dropped in shallow leagues? Looked electric in his last start and sounds like he's going into the second half with a new plan from Bucs coaches.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
He's OK. He always seems to have a new plan. I'd buy the K's and everything else is gravy
Cito's Mustache
7:38
I have the following guys: Rogers, Neris, Jackson, Hendriks, and Vazquez. Would that be the order of riskiest-to-safest to retain a closing role after the deadline?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
See link at 7:37 mark
Lady Justice
7:39
Can you elaborate on how Brosseau is a must-own in all formats?  How does he find consistent playing time when Lowe and Robertson return?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
He needs to be owned, maybe not started, and maybe dropped later.
7:41
This filter is doing great this season and I see no reason for Brosseau to break the mold. He's way better than Robertson
Richard
7:42
Who do you prefer at MI ROS: Asdrubal, Odor, Kike, Adames, Newman or Sogard? 12-team mixed. Thanks Jeff!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
Sogard then maybe Newman. The rest have playing time issues.
Junior
7:43
What will Urias’ usage look like in the second half?  How many innings does he have left?  Is there any likely scenario he moves to the rotation?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
I think he's getting 6 IP per week and the Dodgers are planning to use him as a bullpen arm in the post season.
mj
7:44
OBP and SLG league.  Jose Martinez or Austin Riley?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Martinez for 2 weeks (Osuna returns at the end of July), Riley beyond that
Chas
7:44
Do you like Adam Plutko against the Tigers?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Like ... no. Using him anyway because of all the other options suck ... yes.
Bartolo
7:45
How would you feel about dealing Hansel Robles for Oscar Mercado in an AL-Only OBP league?  Need steals, although I do also have a chance to pick up a couple points in saves.  Would still have Colome, Pagan and Eovaldi.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
You are fine with Saves, get Mercado
Roger
7:46
Hi Jeff. Kingery has cooled off over the last couple weeks. Are you a believer in him long-term? Thanks for the time!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
I think he's OK.
7:47
I'm trying to come up with a comp and Odor keeps coming to mind but it's wrong. I see if I can think of another one.
Mike
7:47
Thanks for chatting, Jeff! Hope you've had a good week. Wife's out of town, not gonna be suckered into Big Little Lies, this ought to be fun. - Mike
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
Thanks Mike
Concerned Owner
7:48
What do you think of Harper's second half outlook? I may trade Jackson, McNeil, and Lourdes for Harper and
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I can't guess Harper. His production seems to be created by a random number generator.
Todd Gak
7:49
You feeling Robel Garcia? That K% has me scared off.
