Thanks for these chats as always - super helpful! In my AL only when a player gets traded to the NL I get the salary back in FAAB. How do you / would you value a high $$$ player who is likely to get moved? Would you trade for one (like my namesake) if they were a solid contributor and a potential faab windfall?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:50

Sure. I looked at historic trade rates once and it's even odds to for the player to stay in their league

Pitching Please

7:51

Is Jobe the best pitcher remaining either to come up or be available ROS?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:51

I'd bet on deGrom, Ray, and Springs first. Unless the Tiggers make a run, I expect Jobe up just the last month

Doug

7:51

I need a bat to replace Albies. Who do you like most, Jake Burger or Michael Toglia?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:51

Toglia

G Money

7:52

Smith-Sawyer started in AAA today and threw 76 pitches. Do you see him taking Fried’s spot? I can’t see Dodd going into that rotation.

Jeff Zimmerman

7:52

Or they could trade for someone.

Tom

7:52

Should I drop B.Rice for Stephenson, Bailey or Moreno?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:52

Brian

7:52

Is river ryan an add in 12 teamers?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:52

Yes to see what happens

Jay

7:53

Has Evan Phillips lost his job? Has Jose Alvarado lost his?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:53

Phillips might, he's making it a tough decision for the team

Barty Strange

7:53

Tyler Locklear interest with full time ABs?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:54

Let me look. I saw the Ty France demotion news right before I started the chat.

7:55

Maybe Railey ... has the team said anything

Mick

7:55

Thanks Jeff, need a second baseman…your preference among Brandon Lowe, Morel, Gorman, and Angel Martinez?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:55

Morel, Lowe, Martinez, Gorman

Ryan

7:55

which 2 start SP for this week, T. Anderson, Arrighetti or Taillon?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:55

Taillon

Bob

7:55

What are your expectations for Robbie Ray?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:56

Lots of strikeouts and walks

Schilling & Pence

7:56

All else equal in a 12 team OPS league, who would you drop first, Eloy, Andujar, Gleyber or Winker?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:56

Eloy or Gleyber

Brian

7:56

The best of this bunch: Singer, Wacha, Pfaadt, Luis Ortiz ?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:56

Pfaadt ... has been all year

Jake Bloss

7:56

$5 left (don't ask....), $0 bids allowed. AL Only (keeper), desperate for pitching, close to selling for next year anyways - should I put it all on Bloss?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:57

No, go MR

BLC

7:57

Thoughts on Nacho Alvarez? Worth a spec add in 12 or 15 teasers?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:57

Ignorable. Here are Steamer600 comps.

7:58

He's projected to be worse than Adam Frazier.

Joe has left the scene

7:58

Someone dropped Matt Olson, how much FAB would you go?

Jeff Zimmerman

7:58

All of it

7:59

A lot with enough left to add injury replacements

Stuart

7:59

Albies replacement in deep NL only roto (four traditional categories). X. Edwards, Nacho, Wisely, Gary Sanchez (have him on reserve and can manipulate positions).

Jeff Zimmerman

7:59

Edwards and Wisely are decent

Yankee E

8:00

Less confident for Schwellenbach after today or liked the Ks and WHIP?

Jeff Zimmerman

8:00

No change
