Time to trust that I'm back to 2022 form?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
Starting to look that way. Just respect the platoon.
Mick
7:52
Thanks for all the help, Jeff, is there any reason to hold Christian Walker?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Depends on the replacement.
Joey Baggadonuts
7:52
Brady house worth a pickup if you have an open spot? Do you like him or Josh Jung better rest of season?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
I'd prefer Jung
Brooks Lee
7:52
Has been hot for 2 weeks. If it lasts much longer, he's just good. So therefore it's too late to grab him for a week? Or ride it until the wheels come off?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
With the Twins healthy, he was losing playing time to Lewis and others. With Lewis hurt again, Lee's playing time is safe. I'm not sure he's a talented hitter.
Adam
7:54
What's your take on Sandy Alcantara? Been much better the last couple of starts against weak offenses. Starting to get back to his old self?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
I need to see if he's back to throwing strikes.
7:56
He was but against the Rockies and Pirates. I don't buy he's back but he might need to be added now in case it's real

How do you approach getting holds off waivers in deep leagues? I have Okert who's got great numbers but no holds and there are several guys with double digit holds (and suspect numbers on the wire (Weissert, Y. Cano, Zeferjahn, K. Akin). I don't really really need the ratio help though - so should I just buy the guys who are getting / have gotten holds?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
My solution takes four downloads, so not easy. Basically it looks at talent and gLI (game leverage index) to see good pitchers who are being used in high leverage spots.
Craig Breslow
7:59
I just traded the face of the franchise for two failed pitchers, a future platoon bat, and a backend rotation prospect. Am I going to try to fix Hicks and put him in the rotation?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
It all depends are what is down the $15/year in savings. This year, it could be ugly
Punk in drublic
7:59
What % of budget on devers in NL only?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:00
All of it with enough left to allow for injury replacements.
Mike
8:01
I have two open spots and need an infielders. Who should I pick up? B.Lee, E.Clement, M.Mayer, K.Keith, or T.Estrada
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
Clement, Lee, Estrada, Mayer, Keith
Desolate OF
8:01
Hi! Badly need an OF (AL, obp league). Favorite(s) from Haggerty, J Clase, Canzone, Loftin?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
Loftin and Clase
Chris Sale
8:01
Am I still on the Braves in August? Does it affect my value much anyway?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:02
If they are out of it, Sale will get traded to a competitive team.
Yainer Diaz
8:03
He's not on waivers, but how much FAAB would you offer in a trade for him if you needed an upgrade at catcher? (Two catcher, 12 team AL only 5x5)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:03
Start with 10%
James
8:03
Just lost J-Mart. Need a reliever. Do I add M. Montgomery, G. Weissert, G. Soto, or C. Martin? Or anyone others who you might think could be on waivers?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Martin would be my choice. Possibly Pressly.
Jed Stone
8:04
Kemp went 4-5 today and is hitting .345, id say he has started hitting…
Jeff Zimmerman
8:05
Before today, he had a 72 wRC+. Now it's at 120.
Kyle
8:06
Drop Roupp for Walter?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
No
kutz
8:06
M.Strahm of D. Lee for long term saves spec?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:06
Lee
aok
8:07
With Sheehan coming back, is Casparius actually likely to start twice this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
I'm pretty sure unless the team plans on going with a 7-man rotation
Huck75
8:07
What do you expect from Brady House?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:08
Not much. Doesn't seem to have a difference making skill
Cheese
8:08
3B replacement for Paredes if me misses time next week.  Rank Toro, Castro, and Clement.  Pts league
Jeff Zimmerman

Castro, Clement, Toro

NL only so reaching deep.  Heriberto Hernandez (and his inflated BABIP) a better play than Isaac Collins rest of season?  Stowers gets traded open up some PT for Hernandez?
