Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
There are worse guys out there. I'd put him just above the MR cutoff
Everyday Eddie
7:47
I know folks are willing to blow their entire FA wad on me this week, but will I play everyday RoS? For some reason, Rocco has only given me 20 ABs vs. lefties.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
He's in a hard platoon and I don't expect it to change.
Roi
7:48
Lost Seager for 2 weeks with the dreaded thumb slide.  I can slide Mookie to SS, but looking at best waiver option to back-fill that OF slot then until Seager returns.  What is the preferred order out of M Moniak, C McCormick, T Ward, A Hays, and J Outman.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Nice options.
7:49
McCormick and Hays right now. I'm a little worried about how the playing time will shake out in HOU once Alvarez returns.
Cito's Mustache
7:49
E. Duran or Donavan ROS in a standard format?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
Duran
Michael King
7:49
12 Team AL Only, saves plus holds league. I've got $51 (100 budget). How much should I bid on Michael King to replace Kevin Kelley?  (I've got Clay Holmes, Felix Bautista, Jax and Jason Foley and others on the wire are Nick Pivetta, Trevor Stephan, Eli Morgan, Nick Sandlin, Mayza)
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
Couple dollars but I might focus on Pivetta instead unless you really need those Holds
John
7:51
Hey Jeff. Has Braxton Garrett turned back into a pumpkin? Ashcroft, Ryu, and L Allen are all available. Thank you
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
He's been worse (4.15 ERA talent over the last three weeks) but the other options aren't that much better. Of them, I'd go with Allen.
Rodon
7:52
Hi. Hoping to get your help! Currently have Rodon in my line up. Pitcher categories are tight and in need of wins and K’s. Would you put Rodon on the bench this week and pick up either Maeda or T Allen for a two start week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Yep, that is exactly my approach this week.
Johnny5Alive
7:53
This was not a great week for my nl only pitching staff - Keller, Montgomery, Garrett all got bombed. Gallen has looked human recently too... By RP have been carrying me. Just a blip or should I be concerned?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
Just a blip IMO. Scoring will be up with the hotter weather.
JT
7:54
My two relievers are Estevez and Evan Phillips but they haven't gotten many saves or holds lately. I just added Tyler Rogers. Is there a strategy to relievers or am I just throwing darts at the board?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
I just stick with my closers because who knows when a 4 Save week will come. That said, if you can pick up additional closers, you can stream them attacking the 7 game weeks and sitting during the 5 game weeks.
Rodon
7:55
Jeff. To follow up, Which would you prefer between Maeda or T Allen?  Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
Maeda
GBS42
7:55
Who would you start this week: Peralta versus Reds, Sheehan versus Reds, Wood versus Red Sox?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
Peralta
Chris M
7:55
5x5 obp categ league… Eury Perez was dropped should I jump on him
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
Yes, hell yes
Randy Choate
7:56
Are you bidding on Cabbage in 15 teamers? His last name is silly.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
In places. His comps are interesting.
7:57
Lots of guys with speed and power but no AVG.
Bomo
7:58
What should I do with Bryce Harper 5 Categories + OPS shallow league. Not a keeper.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
If your team isn't competitive, keep him. Otherwise try to sell for someone that will help you this season.
Guesto
7:59
Cowser over-matched or unlucky?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
Probably some of both.
Lucas
7:59
Who are some of the top "wish i added him before the deadline" guys?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
It's so tough to know. Several teams sound like they'll trade everyone in their bullpen (e.g. Mets) so it is tough to guess who will remain. One year all the setup men got traded.
8:01
I like the idea of targeting SP's on the move like Lorenzen or Blackburn.
bart
8:01
Is David Peterson a viable 15 team bench streamer ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
No
Guestish
8:02
Alzolay seems to settled in. E.Cabrera, Woo, or Manoah to much to give for him?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
Yes for this week. Make sure he still have a job after the trade deadline
Guest

With some obvious regression baked in, what can we expect from Tyler Wells in the second half?
