Welcome
7:31
Here are the winning bids in the two 15-team Tout Wars mixed leagues:
Gare Bear
7:31
Jasson Dominguez worth bidding high on? Is he gonna stay up for good or just up for a couple weeks?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:33
I think it'll be as long as Stanton is out. It might be until Volpe returns. It might just be a week.
One sec for Dominguez comps ...
7:35
7:36
Here are some guys with similar abilities who performed similarly to how Jasson is performing in AAA
Some good, some bad
Gone 2 C'eed

Hi! ​Desperate for a catcher in 2C AL only, OBP league. (I’ve now lost Kirk and O’Hoppe…) Pick up d’Arnaud or Garver, or try and trade Cantillo for Austin Wells?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
I think you go for a trade because it'll be easier to find a pitcher than a catcher
Steve
7:37
Burger is frustrating me...stay patient or replace with Cortes or Canzone?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
Cortes and Canzone can also be frustrating. The only power guys are that way
Adenolith
7:38
I can pick 2 of Prielipp, Early, Schultz, and Weathers, McClanahan. Who'd you take?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
Prielipp and Schultz
jerry
7:38
Drop Trevor Rogers for McClanahan or Ritchie?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
For McClanahan
Arms and Armor
7:38
Thank you for the ever-essential waiver wire piece and breakdown of the callups. Curious where Cantillo (the arm I'd be cutting in my AL Only) would fall on the list?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
He'd be near the top. I like him a lot.
Mike
7:39
is this Martian going to have much of a run here and is he worth starting over Cam Smith with all the righties on the Yankees schedule this week?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Hold Cam Smith
Daprez
7:39
Need to drop one in 5x5 roto: Angel Martinez, Sam Antonucci, R. Laureano & Okamoto
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
Probably Antonucci
Tom
7:39
is Peter Lambert for real?  would be dropping G Holmes
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
I would, Holmes has been struggling
Strategery

Strategy Q: AL Only daily league, 3-man bench. I usually like to have 2 spare arms and and a bench bat to rotate in, but most of my guys are playing everyday right now. Better to use that 3rd bench spot for a save spec/ratio reliever/breakout arm (Jack Perkins, Silseth, Prielipp) or a sub bat (Schneeman, Leody Taveras)?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
If playing, go with another arm
Closers Suck
7:40
Ryan Walker, Jack Perkins, and Senzatela available in a 15 team league where I am hurting for saves. Any of them stick out to you for an aggressive bid?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
I don't know about aggressive bids, but I have it, Walker, Senza, Perkins.
AL Only
7:41
Lambert or Prielipp for now and long term.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
Prielipp for both
Peter Pratt
7:41
Hey Jeff, any juice in Carlos Cortes or does he fade away with Rooker's return?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:42
I'm worried about Rooker's return since Cortes's defense is horrible. Maybe hold for week
The Batman
7:42
How heavy on FAAB are we going for Tolle and Ritchie in a 12 team OC? I’m a bit hesitant on them because the potential length of their stays, but the talent is so enticing.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
I high on Tolle with comparable bids to Schultz last week. As for Ritchie, I'm not sold on his talent, especially with his 4.3 BB/9 in AAA.
7:46
In Ritchie's one MLB start, he had a 39% Ball%, which typically equates to 4.5 BB/9.
Nate
7:46
have Muncy (ATH) and Burger?  both seem to strike out every other AB.  if you had to drop 1, who would it be?  redraft
Jeff Zimmerman
7:46
Drop Muncy
Steve Juvelier
7:47
Who will Angels closer be now that Romano was DFA'd?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I would go with Pomeranz but I could be wrong. When it's totally up in the air I look at who has the highest gLI (Leverage Index for when they threw) over the past 2 weeks. Here is the ranking: https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders/major-league?pos=all&lg=all&season=2...
