Welcome.
7:32
First off, there will be a FanGraphs chat next weekend. If the playoffs are on the line, the main side will likely be hosting the chat. If not, I will.
7:33
Here are the winning bids in the three ToutWars 15-team leagues. Ignore the prices managers were spending all they had left.

That's for being here this season. Good times!

Need homers, drop XEdwards for : BRodgers(Coors) , Westburg or Albies ? Roto
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
Albies or Westburg  ... probably Albies
H2H
7:34
Jeff, do you trust M. Spence (TEX, @SEA) or J. Cannon LAA, @DET) two-steps this week? Other options are one-start guys like Montas, Marsh, D. Martin, Montero, Sears.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
Depending on how FAAB goes, I might be using the Spence one.
I don't mind Montero or Martin. Jose Suarez is also an option.

Last week of season—if I need volume, should I consider sitting an Alex Bregman (who will probably get a few days off) and starting a Tena instead?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
I could see it
Relievers
7:36
In a starts cap league and looking for RPs for win/save vulturing. How scared should I be of Yarbrorough or Keider Montero (assuming they work behind followers)? Anyone else in that position you'd trust?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
Stroman could be an option.
Save Specs
7:37
Thanks for the season of chats! Neck and neck in my league and hoping to pull it out...
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
good luck

How much does MLB playoff position matter tonight? Are you more likely to bid on players from teams chasing a spot (e.g. DET, MIN, NYM, ATL) over players from other teams? More for SPs than bats?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
The ideal teams are those still in the hunt (e.g. AL Wild Card). Some of the teams out of it are giving their rookies a ton of playing time to prep for 2025 (e.g. Nationals).
7:40
I don't think there is a general policy to follow

Do you expect Wheeler to throw his final start on the last day of the season?  Thanks for being so much help all season!
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
First, you're welcome. On the question on Wheeler, I think he might but only for a few innings. He'd use it as a bullpen to stay healthy.
Daily League Strategy
7:42
Is it worth holding a bench bat (in my case Delucca or Moniak/Campero in LA) in my daily league or just get an RP? I'm bunched in homers but my regulars are reasonably regular aside from Kyle Tucker and George Springer...
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
If you need homers, add the bat
Just Glad Its Over
7:43
So I can start drafting for next year
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
Some people already have

In a keeper league, do you like the idea of being able to keep unused FAAB season to season?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
No, let it reset.
Shallow Championship
7:44
In a shallow H2H, would you drop Musgrove at LAD or Eflin at NYY for the likes of an Erod vs SF or Littell at  DET?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
I'm dumping Musgrove in deeper leagues. He doesn't make this week's nine arms so it off to the wire. I'd do the same with Eflin
RAGBRAI
7:44
Is Yorke making OD next year?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
It sounds that way from the team. It's a long offseason and who knows what will happen.
Tim
7:46
Thanks for the help all year! My dynasty season ends tonight; how loud are the alarm bells on Josh Jung? I’ve seen others be ruined by lingering wrist things, and am starting to think about moving forward with Bohm and Joey Ortiz in a 14t
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
I'd hold or trade Jung. Someone would want him.
Tim
7:47
What do you think the D’backs do at Catcher next year? I have ADC and Wells in dynasty, and right now that feels like the proverbial having two catchers, but not one
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
I think Arizona keeps both catchers
7:48
with a Montero getting most of the run to start the season.
Guest
7:48
In an exciting NL-only OF decision, Lamont Wade, Tyrone Taylor or Billy Cook?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
Taylor
Seanold
7:48
Thanks for all the advice this year, enjoy the off-season! Chasing volume last week, who would you prioritize, Houck or Bassitt?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
My system likes Houck based on his recent 2024 results
