In an OBP league, is Friedl a must-roster? Or rotate with hot hands on waivers? (for context, available on waivers include Josh Smith, Donovan, Soler, Kelenic, McCormick). Right now he's on my bench and I'd love to grab an extra starter to stream this week, but Friedl feels too valuable to be a drop. Is he comparable to the guys sitting on waivers, or a must-hold?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
I'd hold. Maybe trade for a starter
Sam
7:48
Do you expect Kjerstad to get more of a look this time?  Strong side platoon w/Hays?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Probably. There might be some moves with him as DH and others in the OF.
Luzardo 60 DL
7:48
The late August return date for Jesus Luzardo is the fantasy death sentence unless you have somehow clinched the postseason in a deep points league, right?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
Pretty much. Go grab deGrom instead. Or Ray. Or Springs
Catching Heat
7:49
Drop a slumping Jeffers for F. Alvarez in shallow 1C?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
I could see it.
POINTS!
7:50
Happ or Brian De La Cruz for ROS points??? (CBS - you can assume it is not far off wOBA since it's basically linear weights)  -- thanks Jeff!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
Happ but damn close
Rog
7:50
Safe to drop Hunter Goodman with the team on the road?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
Yes, unless you need a C, he's at 7 (maybe 8 games)
CES
7:51
Need to plug my new Braxton G hole. Going for Chapman first but, Paxton>Mikolas>Tobias Myers? Thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
I'd have Paxton, Mike, Toby
KC Pain
7:51
In a 18 team 6x6 dynasty and can hold forever. I have Norby, Jung, Amador, and Yorke all at 2B on minor roster. If you had to keep two and trade two which would they be?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Ask someone else. I use others for my prospect knowledge.
Guest
7:52
thank goodness it's not h2h but had a guy in my league go 21/38 today, I am... no longer ahead of him in OBP
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
I still remember my final weekend when my hitters went 5 for 56. To say the least, I lost.
Guest
7:53
Ryan or Valdez an overpay for Kwan ?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
It seems a little but if you need AVG, he's the guy to have.
gonyr
7:54
Josh Jung finally (I hope) coming back soon. Need to drop 1 of Gonzales, Vientos, Garcia. Thoughts? Thanks.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
Garcia if it's the Nats 2B
luke
7:55
Steward Berroa got called up, and has some good minors numbers. Any playing time available for him
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
The steals are legit (29 in 222 PA) but the team can't even play Schneider every game. He might be better in a daily lineups league.
Will graham
7:57
Hi Jeff. 5x5, roto weekly, standard cats, redraft. Gotta drop two: Webb, Bob Miller, King, Scherzer, Woo, Pablopez, Eflin.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
King and Webb ... Maybe Eflin or Woo. Btw, good luck in your 6-team league with Eno's son.
Guest
7:58
JoJo just variance 2 of these last 3 performance, or is he just a typical MR?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
Just check in on his velo
Polo
7:58
Drop Tylor Megill for Turnbull?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
.... no .... I like both a ton. I might look for other more "famous" options
John
7:59
Brandon Lowe isn't going to miss time, why drop since hes been hitting well?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
I'm not in the mood to roster a broke part-time player. Hopefully I can stream or roster better options.
Pops
8:00
Maikel Garcia cuttable in a 10t with options like Winn, Neto, Gelof, and Norman?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
yes
Spencer Turnbull
8:00
Worth a big bid? Was great before move to the pen.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
We are going to see some big bids
$250 FAAB
8:01
In a 12 OBB roto. Reasonable or short and time to bid cheap for a few weeks right?  A smart person with a Process once told me roto players can benefit you all year so it's OK to front load the bids a little bit.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
I'd at least save $10 per week on the way out, maybe even $15. You'll need the money to may moves and if in the lead, $2 moves. There will be turmoil at the trade deadline and when prospects get called up around Sep 1st.
Dan
8:03
Jeff. Not sure what happened to my question? Will Brennan a decent streaming choice to take up some of the power shortage created by the loss of Stanton (12 team H2H)?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Depends on the righties on the schedule. I just see him as a streamer. A platoon option for this week is a nice tasty Calzone.
