c. pratt near the top of the list?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:32
I'm not that sure Pratt will be good.
7:34
Normally, hitters take a 200 OPS point hit going to the majors; he's at .745 OPS in AAA, so a .545 OPS is the median outcome.
7:35
He was 10th in the org and not a top-100 guy. Again, those guys are rarely productive. https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/evaluating-rookie-hitters/
7:36
I'd only be looking at him as a Jacob Marsee clone

AL Only - Drop Preilipp for Brandon Young?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:36
Yes

Have you seen enough of Edwin Arroyo? What's your take?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:37
Playing six days a week with a .000 ISO is not going to win many fantasy leagues.
Bob Anderson
7:38
redraft - Royce Lewis, B Montgomery, D Guzman (please rank)
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
You got it

I noticed River Ryan is no longer amongst the top SP prospects.  Is that just list criteria thing?  Or do you rank hom
Jeff Zimmerman
7:38
I'm pretty sure he's over the 40% mark like Kade Anderson

Is Austin Riley a drop in 12 team Roto?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:39
I need to find a Jose Ramirez replacement in a 12 and it was not good. Who do you plan to replace him with?
Greg Pope
7:40
If you just lost Judge and need HRs in a 15 team NFBC, would you be all in on Braden Montgomery? Are we thinking triple digits in FAAB?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:40
I would
Steve Painter
7:41
Trea Turner continues to struggle with brief flashes of who he should be. Hang in there with him, or drop him in favor of others who have performed better? 12-team points.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:41
I have him in a league and I've been treating him like he's hurt. Starting others and only using him as an injury replacement.
Bob Anderson
7:41
Melton staying in DET rotation w/Skubal, Mize, Verlander returning?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:43
I don't think there is any way he can. No talk of a six-man rotation
billwarts

Thanks for the chat, Jeff!  11 team mixed have to drop two of Seiya, Jung, J Dominguez and Nootbar.  Which two to drop?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:44
Nootbaar (platoon issues) and Dominguez (worst talent)

Still liking walker Buehler more than you should after his outing today?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Yes, it's nice for him to have the walks under control

I've got a 2nd-half league draft coming up. 5x5 roto with keepers for next year. What current non-closer relievers have the best shot at being capital-C Closers to start 2027?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:45
Grant Taylor
7:46
That's it for now
Bob Anderson
7:46
Manaea becoming permanent part of NYM rotation?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:47
It seems that way after adding the cutter ??? ....
Yep, a cutter

Thanks for doing these Jeff…14 team OBP league. which of Francisco Alvarez, Alejandro, Kirk, and Gabriel Marino would you roll with at catcher? I’ve got Rushing now but guessing he’s a good time / not a long time solution.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:48
I'd go Alvarez for now to see if he can get is power back, If the K's continue move on. With these WW options, it seems like others will pop up.

Names like Pallante, Buehler, Assad, and Andrew Alvarez are available in my 12 team OC. Would you cut Taj, Roupp, or Zebby for any of them? I’m finding those guys hard to trust right now as they trend in the wrong direction. Thinking of a line change.
Jeff Zimmerman
7:51
Taj and Zebby are clear cuts, especially Zebby. Of the guys to added, Assad and Buehler would be the two I'd target.

May have to activate Woodruff this week.  Would you drop R Nelson, T Melton, or just Woody himself?
Jeff Zimmerman
7:52
Melton - he's likely headed to the bullpen
