Happy Fathers Day

Here are the bids from the two 15-team Mixed Tout Wars leagues.
Jimmy.

Jeff, with Maeda close would u drop Varland bad again today for Manning?   Thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
I'm not sure Varland will get demoted but could. With Manning, his fastball velo is up 2 mph from earlier in the season but can't find the plate. I guess it's a fair move.

I’ve got Melendez and Sabol as my catching duo.   Naylor or Henry Davis an upgrade over Sabol?   14 team mixed roto
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
Both might be over the course of the season. Sabol hits thought 1-2 week stretches where he plays more in the OF thereby helping his value.
Kevin
7:35
who Is someone who’s got a total year lower rank but has been raking the past 25-30 games that you think will end up with a solid season?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
No idea, I don't base decisions on such a small sample size. Now, that sample might get them more playing time and there are several guys I wrote about in this week's lineups.
Mmaude

Hey Jeff, but if a random request here but what was the polling method you used a few years back where you ranked hundreds of players using a tool where folks voted on randomized ‘one vs. the other’ choices? Example: polling Chris Taylor vs. Matt Olson one time and then the next question being Justin Turner vs. Josh Naylor. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
I think more can be done with it. I should drop my waiver wire ranks in one each week.
Dairon Blanco
7:38
I need steals! Is Dairon Blanco worth dropping either Dylan Moore or Elvis Andrus in AL-only 5x5? If so - How much of $25 left (out of $260) is he worth bidding?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Just $25 left is tough to go more than $1 or $2. And it's fine to drop Moore
Closer Clarity
7:39
Which of the following RPs would be your preferred add?: Alvarado, Alzolay, Gallegos, or Hicks
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Hicks, Alzolay, Alvarado, Gallegos
Pham'it
7:40
Is his value going to crater with the Alonso activation off the IL?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
I'm going to assume so. Canha will need to go back to the OF
Tim
7:40
Is Jason Foley the new closer in DET?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
I don't know but he's one of the top specs
Jim
7:41
Happy Father's Day Jeff! Your WW article said Eddie Rosario was unrosterable. I streamed him this week and was planning on dropping him in a 12 tm league. Did his big weekend change your mind at all?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
I believe he's talented but he's been sitting against lefties and of the six games, three are against lefties. It's tough to get any value from that. Also, the other three righties are decent (Brown, Javier, and Wheeler).
7:43
The next week, it's at least 5 righties so he should be back in then
Steve
7:43
Matos (SF) or Abreu (HOU) for rest of '23?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
Abreau
7:44
I ran the projection comps on Matos and got:
Luis Matos (682641)
Jake Alu (666906)
Pablo Reyes (622569)
Alek Thomas (677950)
Nick Gordon (624503)
Joey Ortiz (687401)
Christian Arroyo (624414)
Howie Kendrick (435062)
Bryson Stott (681082)
Yairo Munoz (622168)
Henry Ramos (592656)
Matt Vierling (663837)
Calvin Mitchell (668751)
Manuel Margot (622534)
The most inspiring list
Seth
7:44
Do you start Lynn (vBos), Canning (@Col), and/or Maeda (vBos?) next week? Or swap them out for a MR like Jax?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
I'd go middle releiver
Ricardo
7:45
Happy Father’s Day Jeff! Would you drop Betencourt to pick up Bailey in a 15 team NFBC league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
I think they are close. Depends on if you need power or AVG
A.
7:45
How much higher on the list of hitters in the ww column does Noda move up in an OBP league?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Some but not a bunch. After diving in, he seems like a 20 HR first-baseman which are streamable.
Big Man
7:47
Is Gavin Williams worth a bid? Do you think he’ll start this week ?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I don't have a read on the situation. I could see Quantrill be healthy and go back in. So Williams is worth a bid but I'm not sure he'll start.
Wes
7:48
Thought Woo might atop this week's SP list. Where would Garrett and Detmers be if available? Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I wish he threw some secondaries. He can't keep getting by on only fastballs.
Guest
7:49
Who do you like better Samad Taylor or Dairo Blanco for ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
I ranked Taylor higher in my waiver wire article. Projections are higher on him, he's young, and can play a couple positions. With that said, I'm sure the Royals will do the opposite.
