Welcome.
Here are the winning bids in the two 15-team Tout Wars leagues.
7:34
I'm enjoying caramel rum from a local distillery (Speedtrap). It's by far their best offering right now.

Is luke Jackson still closing by end of season? Justin Martinez also or will it be a committee with Puk, ginkel and miller? Vest the man in Detroit ?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:34
No idea to any of them. If I knew, I'd win all my leagues.

Is Ryan Walker a good replacement for Jose Alvarado?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
Yes, I'm surprised Walker wasn't rostered
Pancake Man

In a 10-team OBP would you drop TON for Jordan Beck?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:35
No, if he wasn't already added, I would expect min bids
Grateful
7:35
Your articles and chats are appreciated Jeff.   In a 15 team
5 X 5 league (standard league with a 5 team bench), what percentage of FAAB (100 budget) would you spend for Birdsong or Abel if you a pitcher that is a must waive?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
I'll start with Birdsong. A ton of people seem to like him but all my indicators point to him being a worse pitcher than Hicks. He's buried at the bottom of my bid lists. You'll need to find someone else to point to the merits of Birdsong.
7:39
As for Abel, I'm guessing at least a 3% to 5% FAAB bid on him and would not be surprised with bids over 10%

already time to worry about standings and be more judicious with category specific adds? currently looking at a 25 pt deficit
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
No but if a tie on talent, I'll lean to the category I need. Someone in one of my leagues made up nine points today.

Benson worth a look in nl only? Will he continue to get playing time when fraley comes back?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
He should remain as a strong-side platoon bat
Coyote Uggla
7:41
What percentage of starting FAAB to bid on Matt Shaw in 12 mixed? And what do you expect from him ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
I'm not even interested with some of the 3B moving up. I don't see Shaw much better than Wagaman, Andujar, Vargas, etc. I don't see Shaw being better than them
2B or not 2B
7:43
NL-only roto, been accumulating 2B options to see who sticks. Who would you drop out of Hyeseong Kim, L. Acuna, or Otto Lopez?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
Acuna possibly Kim
spainard
7:43
Quality start leauge zebby logan henderson louis ortiz how would u rank them
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Henderson, Matthews ................................Ortiz
Carl
7:44
Moises Ballesteros, in an NL only 5x5 - worth it?    How about Abel?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
In most NL-only's they both need to be rostered.
Finn
7:44
Thanks for the help, Jeff…do you prefer Will Warren or Dustin May?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
I have Warren over May in my rankings

Muncy or Vientos ROS obp league
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Muncy
Wes
7:45
Do you care more about Varsho's elite new bat speed or hus 40%K rate? Small samples city
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
I'll always worry about the strikeouts first and foremost.
Guest
7:46
Do you think Slade Cecconi has the stuff to stay in the CLE rotation or is he destined for the bullpen?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
That rotation is trash right now. He might be the best arm in it. Bet on Cecconi
Jon
7:46
Would you drop Lawlar for Birdsong?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
I'd perfer to not have either one on my roster.
Jeff
7:48
Hello, fellow Jeff! Do youhave high hopes for Birdsong in the rotation? Where would he rank in this week’s FAAB article?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I'd rank Birdsong right ahead of Kershaw
Hocking a Lugo
7:48
Anything to Matthew Lugo in Anaheim? Lots of k’s, a few home runs. Kyren Paris 2.0?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
I'm not interested at this moment.
Adenolith
7:49
What's going on with Lawler? A must hold in 8 teamers?
