Jeff Zimmerman
7:30
First off,so everyone knows, there will be no Waiver Wire Chat or Article next week.
7:31
It is my daughter's high school graduation so I will be spending time with my family.
7:32
Here are this week's bids from the three 15-team Tout Wars leagues.
John
7:32
Lee has a possible separated shoulder. Time to drop?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
I am, he hasn't been or was projected to be a difference maker.
Alek Man oh man!
7:33
I'm back right?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
From the buffett?
7:34
I'm sure others will rush to add him, but I'm going to need a few starts before thinking about having him near my roster.
PITCHING ROS
7:34
Have 2 spots....keep montas, Richardson woods, or paddack.. need wins and Ks.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
Rich Woods and Paddack

Who would you prefer throwing $1 FAAB at between Flexen and Manoah in a 12 team AL only 5x5 H2H league to replace Javier? I'm thinking Javier is still feeling theeffects of that nerve issue in his neck.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
I have no preference, maybe target a safe middle reliever

Christopher Sanchez is available in my 10 team NL only 5x5.  What % of FAAB would you bid for him?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
10% to 20% in an NL only
Steve
7:36
Schneider or McCormick ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
schneider at this point
Bill
7:36
Drop Melendez for L Taveras?  13 team mixed redraft
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
Sure ... I think both can be streamed at this point
The Batman
7:37
Is CES a cut in a 12 teamer 5x5 for a Manzardo or Jon Singleton type? He was bad before the injury and no IL spot is making me lean towards a cut.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
I'm moving on in the two spots I have him. Singleton might be an improvement
Kut Me
7:37
In the new Player Rater (nice tool!) the various ROS projections have have Kutter rated between 80 and 120 - a lot lower than he’s rated for the start of the season. Do you see underlying metrics that justify that drop or that concern you? Is it time to sell high?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
The projections now see him as a full-time starter so his ratios got worse. His preseason projection was too ambitious.
Fake Cronenworth
7:38
Deep OBP league...feel like it's time to move on from Jorge Polanco. Please rank Neto, Julien, Toro, Gorman, Drury, J Ortiz, B Lowe as MI replacements.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
I'd prefer Polonco over all of them. If I squint hard enough, maybe I'd add Neto
KCBBq
7:40
Seriously considering playing for 2025 due to poor roster management and major under performance. 12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league using W+QS and S+1/2H. $260 team salary. Pick 2 to throw $1 at between Hendriks (may be closing in Aug), Felix Bautista, Bieber (FA in 2025), Drew Rasmussen (3rd TJ), Story and Alex Manoah.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
Manoah and Rasmussen. With both, you will know this season how they are doing. If horrible, you can then move onto your other choices
Matt
7:41
12 team league. I have 738 left in FAAB how much would you for Friedl? 8th in runs, 6th in homeruns and stolen bases.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
I feel it's going to take $100 but he didn't go for that much last week in the NFBC. One sec ...
7:44
7:45
This are the bids in the 12-team OC leagues on the NFBC
A $40 would have won him in each league. I'm not sure how much those will go up this week
RAGBRAI
7:46
Benson, Frelick, Lipscomb, B. Alexander all seem to be underperforming a bit.  How many will pick it up and how many will be back in AAA fairly soon?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
I have no faith in any of them
The Sweetest Swing
7:46
Been hit by the injury bug
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Aren't we all
Mike
7:46
Soderstrom, Eddie Rosario or Carlos Santana for my utility spot. 15 team mixed roto. OBP instead of AVG. Thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Santana
Jon
7:47
How many SP in article would you prefer Weaver or R. Walker over. Just accruing stats over 5-6 IP/week
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
About the top 8 or so ...
