S+H league. Have Diaz and Chapman. Drop abreu for any of these? uribe, m miller, slaten, Robertson, Ginkel, poche. So many options on the wire.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
Ginkel has thrown in three days, he's an option
Donny Park
7:59
Michael Busch small sample size -- plate discipline gains and hitting the ball hard -- Buying as a viable fantasy contributor this year? 12 OC+
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
I should but I'm stacked at 1B and 3B so he doesn't make a dent

I need to add an OF for roster flexibility. How do you rank the following on my waiver wire: Alex Kiriloff, Will Benson, Max Kepler, Brandon Marsh, Jurickson Profar, JJ Bleday, Jackson Merrill? 12-team H2H with OBP. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
Why not your entire WW
8:01
Benson, Profar, Marsh, Bleday

NL-only 5x5. Would you drop Lynn or Mikolaus, for Turnbull or Waldron or Winans? Winans seems to be a reliever. I can put any pickup on my reserves for a while.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
Mikolas for Turnbull
Greg
8:01
Is Jose Abreu done?  In a 15 team NFBC, cut him for a waiver wire CI guy like J Walsh or T Lipscomb or hold for another week and hope he gets going?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
He's still hurt (hand or wrist). Feel free to move on while checking in to see if he's healthy
The Path of Totality
8:02
Is Pepiot now safe? Logan Allen? SP help for 12 team Points. QS league.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
Who knows what safe is? They are safe to make their next start.

Kenta Maeda's been less than impressive so far out of all the SPs on Detroit Tigers staff. If he continues to struggle, will he make way for the Tigers to bring up Matt Manning permanently to replace Maeda in the rotation or is Maeda safe because the Tigers gave him 2 year contract?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
I could see Maeda eventually head to the bullpen but it'll take a month or two. On top of that, I'm not sure Manning is an upgrade over Maeda
Mike
8:03
Are you concerned about Cedric Mullins.  He filled up the counting categories, but his AVG and OBP were awful and Baltimore has a lot of OF depth, although more on the corners, like Heston.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
Yes but he's always been on the verge of being unrosterable
Guest
8:05
Thanks for doing these chats Jeff!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
You're welcome
Do You Want Moore?
8:05
I've always had a soft spot for Dylan Moore. Should I try to change myself or should I pick him up for Josh H. Smith in my AL only OBP legue?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
No, Moore only starts against lefties.
Walsh
8:06
Brayan Bello was dropped in my 15 tm mixed. Is he worth a big bid? Numbers aren't great.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
I'd drop 20%+
He's one of the drop to dream for.
PG
8:06
Hi Jeff, would you drop Jose Siri for Lars Nootbaar (in anticipation of him being activated tomorrow)?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
no
Gallienus
8:07
How much interest should there be in Ashby? A little worried about the velocity, would you rather have him or a Houck or Meyer in a QS league?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
I want Quintana over Ashby. Keep Houck and Meyer
Seanold
8:08
Hey Jeff, thanks again. Sewald is available in my 15 team NFBC roto, what do you think he'll go for?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
10%, he's a tough hold
Bench Bat
8:08
Lawrence Butler or Josh H. Smith (AL Only, OBP). Both are trending towards strong-side platoon roles, Smith on a better team, though Butler hit 3 balls over 100mph today...
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Smith for now
Anon
8:08
Baty or Rengifo as a backup 3B while Lewis is on the shelf?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Baty

How do you prioritize hitters ROS when deciding between two similar player types? Projections? Razzball? Some other ranking system?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
For pitchers, I have a complex system that averages several values including STUFFF++pp values. As for hitters, I'm just using my preseason projections for now. Eventually I'll move to in-season Steamer.
Blake ayal
8:10
How would you rank minter, Daniel Hudson, Kittredge, Gallegos, Estevez and kekering in a saves plus holds lead? Also any under the radar ratio options you’d suggest. Thanks for doing this weekly!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:12
Even ... and I'm not targeting any this week. I'm not after any of them.
Rickey
8:12
Would you drop Kerry Carpenter for Ward? OBP league. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:12
Yes, I let go of Carp last week. Not enough playing time.
