Thanks for the insight throughout the year, Jeff…do you like Tyler Wells and Taillon this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
I'm starting Wells in several leagues
If I need to make up ground, I'd roll with Taillon. Those two starts could be huge.

Ascraft is named as tomorrow starter, roll him over Latz?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
If they don't plan on limiting him
Chucky
7:56
Any suggestions for steals after Caballero, who was picked up last night
Jeff Zimmerman
7:57
McCarthy, up against six righties this week.  Mangum and Robles are also options
ross
7:58
Looking at the top two batters on your WW Report -- Burger and Bader -- would you drop Matt Shaw or Torkelson for either of them?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:58
I might do Shaw for Burger
That's not fishing
7:58
Did you see the Big Amish slam? The 493 footer? After the correction comes, what do you think reasonable expectations for next year are?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:59
My numbers have him for mid-40's home run power.
8:00
I'm going to have to dig in more once the season is done.

Trey Yesavage being recalled by the Blue Jays for tomorrow is he a viable two start option this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:01
No ... checking his usage
8:02
I don't see him going over 4 IP.
8:04
Also, I'm worried about the walks. Hopefully with two weeks left in the season, but rotation is set and I don't have to rely on the rookie.

Drop Neto for keaschall or burger in a weekly points league for utility position Since Neto is 🤷🏻‍♂️ this week.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:04
Yes
Vic

Appreciate all your chats and columns this year
Jeff Zimmerman

Thanks Vic

Thanks for the chats all year. How much FAAB in a 15 teamer do you want to have for next Sunday night? ($1000 starting NFBC type league)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:07
If leading, $20, if behind $10. I've got a team I'm making 9 moves this week, so I want to be able to do 10 the last week. So many roster changes and dead options. In in the lead, you need to spend $2 to beat everyone or you'll end up with the worse options.
8:08
Note on two-start guys. If you can, add as many of the good ones as possible to keep them away from your opponents. If you don't plan on starting a starter, drop the non-starter and take an option off the board.

we running out Alexander for two starts this week
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
Damn right
Billy
8:09
will Early get 2 starts this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:09
I'm not sure. I would no count on it.
Stan
8:10
assuming Early will stay in BOS rotation...pick 1 - Early 3 remaining starts (ATH, @ TB, DET) or Seymour (TOR, BOS, @ TOR)
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
I'm not counting on those starts to end next week. With just two starts, I'd lean Early

Playing for 2026. 12 team AL only 5x5 H2H keeper league using OPS. Keep 8. $260 team salary 30-35% inflation for top 1/4. Have Rice $18 and Neto $26. Are either keepable? I have $6 FAAB left. Two others at $7 and $11. Would you drop either and hope you can get either for $6 or too risky?
Jeff Zimmerman
8:11
Too risky.
8:12
I'll make stand now. As people dig into Rice, he'll start climbing up draft boards and I'll not be surprised if he's going in the 5th or 6th round in 15's as the 2nd or 3rd C off the board.

Trust Strider in what might be a two-start week.  My opponent has three two-start pitchers.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:13
You have to go for it.
KCBBq

Do you think Marcelo Meyer will be Boston's starter at 2B (3B if Bregman doesn't return)? Was going to drop him tonight and try to pick back up for $6 or less. This is a 12 team AL only H2H 5x5 keeper league. $260 team salary and 30%ish draft day inflation. Two other owners have $7 and $11 but I'm thinking I can get him back for sub $5. Main concern is his injury history.
Jeff Zimmerman
8:15
I would not throw him out there. He has shown the skills of a top-20 hitter. I wouldn't take the chance
Relievers
8:16
Do you have any favorites from the morass of these al only relievers? Saves only league, but WHIP is nice. Whitlock, Sands, Grant Taylor, Sabrowski, Cano, Maton? Thanks!
Jeff Zimmerman
8:17
No. I'd just go with the most talented and highest gLI (win probability tab)
You might get a Save or Win
