Fred

Sproat a hold or would you rather spend that spot on Severino or Vasquez in a deep league
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
I'd for sure cut for Vasquez and probably Severino
Short memories
7:43
How sorry is the jamoke who bids 10% on Lauer's start tonight gonna be?  P.S. Same question for Randy Vasquez and mlodzinski's 90 pitches in 4 innings (exaggerating)?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
The Lauer ones will hurt the most when Yesavage comes back and pushes Lauer to the bullpen.
7:44
I think the baseline has moved on the other two, so it's worth spending some $$ on them
NL Only
7:44
Drop May for Mlodzinski?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Yes
Most Dropped
7:44
Will Estevez lead the league in drops this waiver period? If so, will he do it very slowly?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
I think managers will hold for another week and see how the situation continues to play out

Soriano is on my wire. Drop any of McLanahan, Meyer, or Patrick for him? 12 team H2H.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Patrick but I don't like it
Jane
7:45
hi Jeff, Hancock, Ober or ERod? B. Lee, Steer, or J. Walker? Estevez, Stanek, or Henry for saves? Thank you.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Hancock, Walker, Estevez

What % is too high on Erceg in 15 team NFBC?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
Depends on your desperation. He could go triple digits
RP Problems
7:47
Is Yates a cut or hold with Romano available? I kind of feel like as soon as he’s back Romano might lose the job unless he maintains his 0 ERA.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
It depends on how tough it is to find closers on your waiver wire.
Hank
7:48
If you played in a league with unlimited add drops and no FAAB how would your approach differ to pitching? Would you still target certain guys or mostly just stream favorable matchups?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:49
There is usually some limit to this approach (IP limits, weekly leagues, weekly waivers). One issue with this method is that to win the week, you might drop good players who could help other teams over the course of the season.

For a power starved team, would you hold onto Vaughn in 15 team NFBC?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:50
I wouldn't but I cut everyone
BrocNessMonster

Sproat was bad, so was Dustin May. We cutting him, too, for a streamer? (Say, Vasquez/Severin) and what are the odds Severino is back? I have him in my DCs since I’d figured I’d use him on the road. I’m starting to be convinced he’s back.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
I think Severino is a streamer, I'm not sure May or Sproat are right now.
ADHD
7:51
Did you see anything encouraging from Sproat, Meyer, Baz or Abel that makes them worth holding onto in shallow leagues? Or OK to chase a shiny new toy with all of them?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
I haven't had a chance to dive into each of their outings.
Box
7:52
Nolan Gorman or Luis Garcia jr for 2b
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Gorman
Fernando Tatis-Buck Jr.
7:52
Starting to believe in lowder?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Sort of. I think he's an add-and-bench
TheTinDoor
7:52
Thx as always....Rank the closer options so you don't have to answer a bunch of variations on the same?   Beeter/Romano/Sewald/Erceg/Sands
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
Romano, Sewald, Sands, Erceg, .................................Beeter
Redbirds
7:53
Is JJ Wetherholt a start-worthy asset right away or more of a solid multi-position power/speed bench bat?  While he probably wont produce many R/RBI in that lineup, do you think his plate discipline in the minors will transfer over, making him start-worthy in OBP/OPS leagues?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:53
Sure, depending on the other options.
Guest
7:54
My league is based in Toronto and they all have long memories. Bidding on Romano will be interesting.  Does location matter when it comes to FAAB?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:54
For sure, I was in an auction league in KC and I just removed the Royals from my ranks. If anyone got promoted, the FAAB was way too high
jimnie
7:55
Where would David Weathers land on your waiver wire list?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:55
One to three
I really like those top two
jimnie
7:56
Erceg or Romano?  max bids authorized?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:56
That's not my game
