Welcome everyone and a heads up. There most likely will not be a chat next week. I will be at my niece's graduation.
Here are the bids from the two Tout Wars 15-team mixed leagues.
Dbax fan

What’re you bidding for Alek Thomas??
Jeff Zimmerman
7:32
10 to 20%.
John
7:33
Time to drop Justin Turner? Nelson Cruz?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
No on Cruz, possibly on Turner depending on the replacements.
John
7:33
Did Trevor Rodgers and Charlie Morton look better today?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
No idea, I didn't watch them throw
Kingpin
7:33
Arizona's offense seems to be better the the week or two. Is this just anecdotal, or should we be more careful streaming pitchers against them?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
They either hit a ton of homers or nothing. I'm not worried knowing that any start could get out of hand.

I always appreciate your insights, Jeff.   What percentage FAAB would you spend on George Kirby in a 15 team keeper league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
Kirby's going for a ton (IMO). In Tout, it was 10% to 20% but I could see teams desperate for pitching go up to 50%.
Zach
7:36
Yepez up for good?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
As long as he hits but might be on the strong side of a DH platoon.
JoeG
7:37
Dane Dunning looked good (again) today . Worth an add , my Paddack seems IL bound.  Deep mixed roto . Thanks .
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
I'm back in. I like what he's doing and I have bids on him where he's available
Sho-Time
7:37
Quantrill, Strider or Max Meyers
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
Meyers and it's not close
Chris
7:38
Thanks for doing these chats, always useful! Bryan Reynolds was dropped in an OCQualifier. What's a reasonable Faab bid? 30 percent?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
10-30%.
Adam

Who’s your number 1 and 2 pickup for the week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Well, I wrote an entire WW article at RotoGraphs. Maybe it says something.
Kingpin

Streaming my 2nd catcher spot in 8-team NL-only standard 5x5 league. Lineups set on Tuesday. Looks like AZ has 4 games vs lefties. That makes Cooper Hummel an OK streamer for me, no?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Yes, if he's qualified at C
Barney
7:39
15-team NFBC format. What % FAAB are you dropping on Jhoan Duran & George Kirby?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
Duran is a tough call since he was demoted. I could see him go from 3% to 10% for teams needing steals
Kirby I expect in the 10% to 50% range
Seth
7:41
Kevin Smith--seems like the ingredients are there (good chase rate, good max exit velo), he just hasn't strung it together. Any hope beyond streaming him for the 9 game week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
Yes, I have several bids in on him
KC Jones
7:41
What are you hearing about Oliveras injury today?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
day-to-day but there might be more coming with the Royals 2nd game just getting over
Johnny5Alive
7:42
Super deep NL only league. Drop Rivas or demiritte for Yepez?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
yes
JC
7:42
Thanks for doing this Jeff. 14 team Points league. Thinking about swapping Justin Turner and Chris Taylor from following players availble in the waiver wire. Should I swap for any of these players? Santiago Espinal, Yandy Diaz, Brandon Drury, Andres Gimenez, Sheldon Neuse
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
No for me
Jake from State Farm
7:43
Winder or Dunning in a QS league? Drop Cristian Javier for either?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
Dunning and no
mm46
7:43
5x5 with QS. E Rod, S Gray, Otto or Dunning?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
Gray for now, but Dunning is a close 2nd
