Leiter had 20 swings and misses vs Halos. Drop Houck for his start in Seattle?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
I guess. I'd hope for better options.
Guest

Are you good streaming Herz vs MIA this week? I worry about ratios.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
I am in several leagues. I don't have better options.
Frank Thomas the Tank Engine

Start deGrom when activated?  Might be rusty but time’s running out.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
I am unless the rest of my options are off the charts.
Houck
8:03
With Houck getting skipped, I think I'm dropping him. Can you give me a 1a and 1b from Zebby vs. LAA, Kutter vs. BAL, Mize vs. COL, Povich @BOS, Leiter @SEA? I could also keep holding or grab a reliever.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Mize and Leiter are way above the rest.

Looking to roll the dice in my finals running out double starters Festa, Povich, Gore.  What do you think?  Too risky?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Not at all, you're playing to win

Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
No

Who would you prefer as bench bat-Edman or Norby. I'm afraid Norby is just a hot run and the Pirates might cool him down. But on the other hand Edman is greatest either. Thanks for doing this talks.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
Edman, especially if I need steals.
Starters
8:05
Who do you want for the next 2 weeks: 3 starts Boyd, 3 starts Francis, 3 starts Zebby, or 2 starts severino. Points league
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
Not Zebby for sure.
Boyd, then Francis, then Severino
Porcho Villa

Same question as above re: Rutschman with H2H playoffs starting, but with much worse waiver options than Cal. Would you drop Adley for any of Amaya, Langeliers, Melendez, or Keibert Ruiz? (5x5 OBP)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
I'd swap him for all but Ruiz
Porcho Villa
8:07
Robles worth hanging on to with the elbow issue or would you drop for any of Josh Lowe, T. Ward, Noot, or Joey Ortiz? Steals nice to have but need all around production for one week playoff (5x5 OBP)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Drop for Nootbaar
Vince
8:09
Hi! Made playoffs in 12-tm, H2H, category. But what I thought was pretty good pitching has shown true colors — unreliable (Peralta, Pivetta), innings-weary, still developing young SPs (Baz, Festa, Williams), or washed up (Kershaw)! Want to drop one (possibly two) of Festa, G Williams or Heaney (good remaining schedule waiver pick up) to add bat. Your preference(s) would be?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
Drop Heaney (or Kershaw) to add the bats you need.
Chucky
8:09
Speaking of the aforementioned L Robert. In a keeper with no contracts, who’s the keep Robert or Butler?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
Hopefully both but Robert
Rockie
8:10
Vodnik off the IL. Is he worth a decent bid?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
Good to hear
8:11
I'd need confirmation that he's going to get his job back before going all in.
Barry’s Foot
8:11
If healthy, could Kumar Rocker be a strong SP option  in 2025?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:12
I though Jackson Jobe was and that got me 0 IP.
Rocker is a great story but I'd check in on other possible call-ups (Chandler).
Near the end
8:13
Is Devers cooked (shoulders)? Replace from bench with Caminero or Caballero (for SB)?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
Those two aren't any better than the hurt Devers.
8:15
His bat speed is way down.
Halo Hurlers
8:15
Detmers and Canning ... 10-team AL-Only ... which is preferable with CWS coming up?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:16
For now, it looks like Canning lines up for the CWS starts
Brian
8:17
Wait you have Edman over Norby?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:17
I would if speed is important
Kingpin

For @Daprez - Fangraphs has a probables grid...https://www.fangraphs.com/roster-resource/probables-grid
Stretch Run
8:18
I am fortuante enough that I get a bye in the first week of the playoffs (H2H, points) which also means I get to set up my team with FAAB for _next_ week. Please help me pick two of: Detmers v CHW, Pivetta v TB, Perez V Houston assuming the one one I get rid of I won't get back!
