Chucky

Tatis playing a short week (5 games). Nico playing 6. Gotta go with the hot hand Nico, right?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:07

Yes, but you should start one at another position

Andy's Reed

8:07

Keep Isbel or drop him for Duran. It's dark out here on the wire.

Jeff Zimmerman

8:07

Yes it is and I like the team context of Duran more.

Don H

8:08

Jeff, which closer is the best moving forward: Estevez, Ottavino or Finnegan

Jeff Zimmerman

8:09

Ottavino, Finnegan Estevez

Howard H

8:09

Whit Merrifield was dropped in my league, should I pick him up?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:09

It all depends on the drop, but yes

Count Pointercount

8:10

Drop Martin Perez for a healthy Eflin or Manaea ROS in shallow points format that values innings & Ws more than Ks? And in that order?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:11

Those two are about where I value Miller. I know I'm lower than most people, but I just have him getting the same value a multi-inning reliever

Guest

8:12

Hey Jeff, thanks for doing this and the waiver wire article every Sunday. Thoughts on Sean Manaea this year? Lots of hype coming into the year with the velocity spike, but he's struggled so far this season and only has a 24.4% CSW

Jeff Zimmerman

8:13

He's been bad and I had him as an option in one league and he's far from my top choice

Giants

8:13

You have JD Davis high on your list. Haniger's return is imminent, Pederson is back tonight and the Giants seem to like rotating a pu pu platter into the lineup. Are you confident he plays full time?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:14

I do for now but with SF, that could change

Full Deck

8:15

Standard 5x5, who do u start, in order of preference: O’Neill, Nootbar, Walker, Burleson, Carlson?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:16

This is a loaded question and I'd go: Walker, Nootbar, O'Neill, Burleson, and Carlson

Hingle McCringleberry

8:16

Rank JP Sears, Singer, Clark Schmidt?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:16

Talk about disappointments

8:17

Schmidy, Singer, Sears

Guest

8:17

Roto 5x5 start McNeil or Polanco ?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:17

Polanco

Evan L

8:17

Saw Smyly was left out of your article—where is he on your WW hierarchy? (10 team, PTs)

Jeff Zimmerman

8:18

I'm not sure he's rosterable in a 10-teamer. He was barely rosterable in 12's until his last start

Steve from NYC

8:18

15 tm NFBC, regardless of position, %FAAB for J Duran, T Walls, & O Peraza.

Jeff Zimmerman

8:18

10% to 40% for each

Stick To Sporer-tz Ball

8:19

Kenta Maeda droppable for a Strahm or Luis Garcia? His velo down and seems injury prone?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:19

Probably. You might find someone who would take Maeda from you. "Stuff-ests" love him this year.

Guest

8:20

Jose Butto worth an add?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:20

No, Steamer is drunk on him

Sam

8:20

Would you give Bellinger for Strider even though I’m thin at OF? Could pick up Siri, Meneses, Myers…

Jeff Zimmerman

8:20

Yes, yes I would.

Mark

8:20

Drury, Kim, or Straw for the drop in a deep 15 mixed to pick up pitching help (such as it is).

Jeff Zimmerman

8:20

Drury

8:21

Limited playing time

8:21

Honeywell, Dunning or Winchowski as a sp eligible rp in a holds league?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:22

Honeywell but the situation could change on these three in a day

8:22

In a league with only four adds per week so have to be judicious. Two questions: Is Heim meaningfully different than Stephenson? And Soler, Baty, Haniger, pederson ROS — any fave?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:22

Soler needs to be added. Heim and Stephenson seems like a draw

Jared

8:23

How much faab would you expect a winning bid for Civale in a 15?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:23

$5 ... maybe. It won't be much
