so i am 15 pts from cash in 5x5 roto but the teams i am chasing have fewer IP than me, time to pivot to rebuild for next year?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
I'd sit down and run the numbers for sure. Hopefully, your not at 80% of your IP at the ASG
dj

house or andujar as a CI fill in?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:10
Andujar

Need some saves and can afford to drop a starter...Should I drop Brandon Walter for Ginkel, or hold with Walter's ROS potential upside?  Thanks
Jeff Zimmerman
8:12
That tough with other potential Saves coming up. But if Walter is your worst arm (congrats), drop him for Ginkel, and be ready to drop Ginkel for a better closer.
Sal
8:12
Appreciate the help as always Jeff. In a 15 teamer, OK to have Bieber on my bid list along with some other injury stashes?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
I have several. I'm a little short on backup hitters because if they get hurt on the weekend, there is nothing to do until the next FAAB period
Cory
8:13
5x5 keeper, first place but hitting is bad.  Pick up Kim (TB) or wait and hope for Delauter.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
Kim is looking good. Could be a difference maker
Mike
8:14
Will Sheehan, May and Priester still be in the rotation in the second half or should I drop them
Jeff Zimmerman
8:14
All should be, but, as always, the key will be who you replace them with.
Bump Wills
8:14
Evening! what's your take on Cantillo? thx
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
I don't like the walks. In a roto league, his 1.46 WHIP is doing as much ratio damage as a 5.28 ERA.
Taco Grande
8:16
Oh it would be hard to be any whiter... thanks about the name. Just a share... in 4 leagues, I have Walter in all 4, doing my part to get him removed from your list.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:17
Thanks. The CBS podcast crew will need to talk him up him to really move.
Jeff
8:17
Hey Jeff---thoughts on whether McGreevy will replace Fedde in the rotation anytime soon?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:17
There are some team quotes on this in my latest mining the news.
8:19
They want to trade Fedde, so they are letting him throw in the hopes that he becomes good.
Cheese
8:19
Sheehan, Boyle, or Schlittler ROS?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:19
That's the order
Wizard
8:19
Is it time to give up on Ozzie Albies in a 5x5 and pickup H.S. Kim, Edman, or O. Lopez
Jeff Zimmerman
8:20
Lopez for sure
Mike
8:21
Keep Ernie Clement or drop him for R.Lewis, C.Simpson or Evan Carter.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:22
Simpson, if in a roto league. Otherwise stay
Guest
8:22
are you worried about walter's innings
Jeff Zimmerman
8:22
I never am. If it happens, it happens and I'll move on. I want good results and I'll deal with the fallout later.
Mark
8:22
Thoughts on Brice Matthews for the rest of the seaons?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:23
In AAA once Pena comes off the IL in a week.
Dos Muncys
8:23
Any interest in Loprefido?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:24
If he were guaranteed playing time. Sure, but Varsho is about back
Adenolith
8:24
Ive heard you say before that xBA isnt predictive. Does it hold any value for fantasy players and if so, how?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:25
None IMO. I keep hearing it mentioned and that is why I looked into it (in The Process). I have on this year's to-do to look into xwOBA

Does whining about injuries in a classic Rotisserie League help?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:28
No, but sometimes a person needs to let the fustraction out. LABR team lost its four top starters (Nola, Sale, P Lopez, and Steele). I'm elated to be in 10th place.
Johnny5Alive
8:28
Do you have different insight on Sheehan? FG has him only making 3 starts ROS
Jeff Zimmerman
8:29
My take on starters, use them while you can and sh... stuff happens, so what is predicted never happens.
That's it for this week. I need to check my bids and get some supper.
