Maxing ABs with daily moves, what do you prioritize this week for pickups: guys who play Monday (Giants, Rockies) or guys who've been hot but no Monday (Aquino, Castro)
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Play Monday and it's not close
Jeff
7:48
Which 2 start pitcher would you start this week: Cortes (vs. PIT, vs. BOS); or Lodolo (vs. BOS, vs. MIL)?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Cortes might not be two starts, Severino might push him back
7:49
So Lodolo in this case
Jg
7:49
nees to start one of Jung Miranda or McCarthy this week . Appreciate your help
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
With no other info, McCarthy
Gregor
7:49
Any love for Emmanuel Rivera v all those Dodgers lefties or pitcher quality too good?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
Some, but he's a ways down my draft lists
Matt L
7:50
Wheeler isn't startable this week, right? Hold for possible 2 start next week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
Yes and yes
Rico

H2H playoffs are brutal. Was ahead all week until Judge went off today and ended up losing at last minute with second homer of the day. No advice needed, just bitching and wanting some commiseration! Thanks Jeff!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
I understand
Been there
Steve in NYC
7:51
15 tm NFBC, prefer Jon Gray or H Greene for ROS? Thx
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
I think Gray. I have both down on my bid lists
Matt L
7:51
With a 7 save lead on 2nd place would you go with at least one closer? 2nd place has 2 closers
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Maybe for one more week with one. Pay close attention to see if he loads up of them
Porcho Villa
7:52
Ok to move on from Seranthony in a do or die one week H2H playoff? Need to free up a spot to stream SPs. Was great all year but not getting save opps since he came off the IL and now coming off an implosion at ATL.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Sure if you need the streaming options
Tubba Bhompson
7:52
If targeting hitting counting cats in H2H for the week, how do you weigh recent performance (hot/cold) vs total ABs?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
0% for both
7:54
I use weekly projections (available at several places like Razzball). Current talent level and expected AB's
Ned Yost
7:55
Just started a painful deep dive of my team stat pages on NFBC and lordy did I mismanage a ton of my players. I need to drink now. Beer? Cocktail? or have I proven I will make the wrong decision and should just drink things neat tonight
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
Always compare to the "good" teams. They make a ton of mistakes also
Pinder
7:56
Is the guy who bid on pinder the same guy who woke up from the dead and started faabing recently?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
No, another one
7:57
He's near the bottom of the standings
Andrew
7:57
Hi, Jeff. Need SV in 15-team Roto. Drop J. Schreiber? I could grab an E. Phillips or similar type guy with 8 games. Or does Schreiber get 2 saves next week after I drop him?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
I'd go with Schreiber. Now, Acevedo is an option
Tyrone
7:58
Was thinking of up picking up Rodolfo Castro or David Villar to replace O’Neill, but then I noticed that Voit was out there.  Who do you like best of the 3 for next week only?  H2H championship week
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
Castro for me
Baseball guy
7:58
Miranda or Witt this week for all the marbles in points league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
Miranda
Baseball guy
7:58
Trust Robbie ray at Oakland or Dustin May vs dbacks?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
Sure
OBP 5x5
7:59
How safe are "safe" ratios with 2.5 weeks left?  I'm leading a roto league by 7 points in OBP. This means can (continue to) unleash guys like Mateo and Aquino with reckless abandon now, can't I?  Ratio cushions as a strategy for September -- too hard to do on purpose or worth a shot?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
I have been using them where I can. Use that cushion
Booth
8:00
Which Giants or Rockies player should I pickup for next week? Estrada, Flores, McMahon, Grichuk?
