Levels of Mistakes
8:00
My team is light on homers and RBIs in a 12 team NFBC league, and I could use a more defined OF quintet so I can use Mookie in the middle infield. How deep should I be going on Cowser? There’s just a part of me that feels like he’s early season fool’s gold but I also know heavy is the only play to get him.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
I'm not going heavy and in my 12's, there are a ton of Steamable outfielders. Go after the COL guys. they are at home in 3 of the next 4 series and should run wild this week.
Pitching
8:01
Hey Jeff, please help me choose 1 of these SP to start this week: Keaton Winn @MIA, Jon Gray @DET & @ATL, Ben Brown @ARI, Eovaldi @ATL. H2H points league that scores 10 pts for a W, no penalty for an L. Thanks.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
Winn here
Catching Trouble
8:02
Salvy or Cal Raleigh, OBP league. Worried about the former's groin and the latter K-rate.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
It's nice to have those options. I'm eyeing Pinto as a Perez replacement in one league
Peter
8:02
Is the Markel Garcia hype train derailed?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
The hype is over but he's still a decent option
HappyFunBall
8:03
I'm sure he's going to stop hitting HRs eventually, but Michael Busch...how big of a league are we comfortable starting him at 1B in?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Again, who are the other options.
Billy Bigshot
8:03
Bradford worth a hold with the back injury? 12 team mixed.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
No, my 12's had equivalent options on the wire. Now in 15s, you might need to hold.
Sammy
8:04
13 team mixed redraft...what % of FAAB for Cowser?  Would be replacing Meadows
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
The hype is insane. I think it'll take 20% bids.
Guest
8:05
What percent of FAAB would you spend on Skenes if he were called up?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
20% to 40%
JV
8:06
winn at Miami OR Varland 2 step at Balt, vs Det
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
I'm not sure Varland belongs in the majors as a starter. I'm dropping him where I have him and moving on.
8:07
Winn is my chose here
Shred
8:07
Deep league SP struggles.  Blackburn, Perez, Yariel is as good as it gets in FA.  Better to just sit on Tiedemann?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
I'd drop any of them for Tiedermann
Boston
8:07
Hi Jeff!  Am I nuts to read Jordan Westburg's upticks in barrels, FB%, and xslg to suggest a possible power spike?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
It's a week but everyone walking around aroused so if you want him, it's the week to pay up
Alec Lemas
8:09
When I’m King I’ll mandate fresh popcorn in all movie theaters, an end to daylight savings time, radio stations can only play music (no talk shows peddling faux outrage and endless bickering) and FAAB bidding will be moved worldwide to Mondays. 🙂
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
Thurdays work better because of the MLB sechedule
Porcho Villa
8:10
Is Alvarado a must hold in 12 team 5x5 SV only? He’s my fourth closer (E Diaz, Phillips, Ginkel) and roster is tight /  need the spot for SP depth
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
I'd get a starter if decent. In some spots, I'm moving to an extra hitter
Dave in slc
8:10
I have too many marlins pitchers! Who is my weak link? Puk, weather's, Meyer? I assume puk. Where would he rank On your ww article today?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
Puk and Weathers can be dropped for middle relievers.
HOf
8:12
When do teams start the changes in roster, looking at Houston and Luperfido up for Abreu
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
Usually two-weeks to a month. I've heard that some players are told this time.
I added Luperfido in the ToutWars league and could see him come up at center or first.
Guest
8:13
Jeff, all of us out here grinding FAAB tonight appreciate your hard work. Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
You're welcome
Peter G
8:14
Had high hopes for a Canning break out, doesn't look like it.  Drop him for Butto?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
Sure but you might dropping Butto next week
The Sweetest Swing
8:14
Too early to move on from Tanner Scott? The walks are back in a big way.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
I'd try to maybe upgrade or get another closer.
Smith
8:15
I have one NA spot that I’m currently using for JD Martinez. Would you drop for Hjerstad?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
No, I'm not sure where Hjerstad will play
